Talking about it, he said, “I never compromised on the script but yes, sometimes you have to give the chance to a new actor even if you have made up your mind for someone else, and you know that the actor you want would also shine in the particular character. Well, Humayun was supposed to do the character of Afzal in Pyare Afzal, but I said to Humayun Saeed, ‘this role isn’t for you’, and he accepted it and that’s how it went to Hamza Ali Abbasi”.
