While addressing the criticism about his character Chinar Khan, Faysal said, “No one is afraid of Chinar Khan in fact I am getting a very positive response, yesterday, someone said to me, ‘I don’t know if I should hate Chinar Khan or should love him’, people are liking it. Actually, in Pakistan we stereotype the characters, a normal perception here is that villain can not be a human, and hero can’t be negative at all, they don’t have a concept of grey characters. I wanted Chinar Khan to be grey, I didn’t want people to hate it. Also, Chinar Khan has that romantic element with him, the credit goes to Saqlain who wrote it so well, also it was well executed. I believe that if a character is built to offend others, he should do that, that’s also the beauty of good acting and storytelling”. Here is what Faysal Quraishi said about Chinar Khan:
