He has appeared in notable, hit dramas that include Dasht, Aansoo, Mario, Kaneez, Dil Lagi, Annie Ki Ayegi Barat, Ali Ki Ammi, Buri Aurat, Jane Anjane, Niqab, Dusra Aasman, and others. He was recently praised in Hum TV’s hit soap series Laadli.

Recently, Asad Malik appeared on the TSR Podcast, in which he called out Pakistanis for producing a population that exceeds their resources. He also declared it one of the primary causes of divorce.

Asad Malik said, “The divorce rate—or any rate—will eventually increase because there is something constantly growing, and nobody is stopping it. It is a killer poison for Pakistan and South Asia, and that is the population explosion, which is causing the biggest issues in our region. One person is giving birth to at least six babies; I don’t know who they are. They are manipulated by the maulvis, who say that children bring their own rizq [sustenance]. Excuse me, in the Quran, Allah says, ‘We give rizq to everyone and to you too.’ I think planning your family to two children is a very reasonable number; I don’t think there can be a better idea than this. Allah clearly says in the Quran that the world’s life is merely a circus, an illusion, this life is a continuous attraction, it brings moments of continuous pride, like wealth and children.” Here is the link to the video:
