Want to create Regex for nested to escape nested parentheses

I want to compare string with parentheses as ex.

String: @required (
              abc ( xyz:54554 )
)

Then If I want to confirm that @required () should be there then above one should return true or we can say match.

Current regex only works and return "abc ( xyz:54554 )" instead of whole.

Tried: \([^()]*\)

You can achieve what you want using start and end tokens. I recommend you trim() your input first.

/^@required\s*\((.*)\)$/
