The Pakistani entertainment industry has grown incredibly over the years. With the advent of private television channels, the revival of the film industry, and the advancement of technology this industry underwent a change that has its pros and cons. There are more opportunities now for the actors but there are also certain challenges which make their job more difficult than ever. We have seen many success stories from the industry in the past decade or so with actors going from playing supporting roles to becoming the top most leading actors in the country. We have also seen actors going into production and even direction. The room for growth in the industry is infinite but so are the frustrations and the challenges.
Nowadays, actors are more vocal than ever about the challenges they face unlike before when they did not speak about such things. These actors obviously are those who have attained a certain position in the industry and therefore they can speak their mind. Even now, these actors have to compromise constantly even though they have been associated with the industry for decades now. With the changing times, some senior actors had to face situations that they had never encountered before.
After watching so many different interviews of Pakistani celebrities, we have short-listed a list of challenges which the actors face yet they continue to entertain the viewers and do not let these hardships stand in their way.
[lwptoc]
The Race for Ratings
With the increase in the number of television channels, the competition is fiercer than ever. The viewers have so many different options to choose from and the sponsors also want to pick the dramas with the most viewership for sponsoring. As a result of this, there is pressure on the actors to be a part of such dramas that will appeal to the audience. Many of the viewers pick and choose a drama based on the actors who are in the cast. Therefore, an actor whose drama gets the ratings gets the most offers as well. There is constant pressure on the actors to choose projects which will guarantee viewership. Gone are the days when content was the king, nowadays ratings are the determining factor and it is obviously challenging for an actor to determine beforehand which drama will get the ratings that the producer and the channel desire. If an actor is consistently part of dramas that do not get the desired ratings, no matter how well they perform, their ‘demand’ in the industry is automatically, unfortunately, affected by it.
The Dearth of Quality Scripts
Due to the rating system and in an attempt to grasp the attention of the viewers, the quality of scripts has gone down. There are more dramas being made today than ever therefore there is a lot of repetition as well. If a drama with a certain storyline gets popular then most of the production houses want the writers to pen down scripts on the dame lines. Most producers and channels want to play it safe because at the end of the day they are in the business for the money.
Many of the veteran and even the younger actors have often shared how frustrated they feel working on television since there is a dearth of quality scripts. They all agree that most stories revolve around more or less the same angles. Some of them have to choose scripts they are not satisfied with because they need to continue working. Others have distanced themselves from the television industry because the scripts do not appeal to them.
Even those actors who are really passionate and find it difficult to take a break are forced to do so because there aren’t enough quality scripts to choose from. Some of these actors have been part of the drama industry since the PTV days and they often share how different things are now and how the quality is going downhill with every passing year.
Pressure from Production Houses & Public
Most of the actors do not talk about the pressure from the production houses directly but it is quite evident that many of them have ended up choosing certain projects because they did not want to displease a certain producer. Since the relationship between the actors and the producers is more like that of a boss and an employee nowadays instead of team members, the actors do not get the creative space they need and most often end up taking instructions from the producers.
Apart from this, there is also constant pressure on the actors from the public since a majority of their fans and followers want to see them a certain way and do not accept their individuality in a way that they get the kind of freedom they need in order to grow and work in a relaxed way.
Delay in Payments
It is truly sad that nowadays more than ever even the top actors of the industry do not get their pays on time. Many actors have often talked about this issue, some of them get paid after years of doing their projects and others don’t get paid at all. In a recent interview, Nauman Ijaz openly talked about the delay in payments which definitely makes the job of an actor even more difficult. Even though acting demands a lot of time and a great deal of effort, the actors who have to run their houses obviously have to venture into other fields as well because they need to keep earning. Some of them have turned into writers solely because they were running out of money even though they were continuously working. While the producers keep on investing in new projects, they do not pay those who have already worked for them and Noman Ijaz blames the broadcaster more than the producer for it.
This is a big challenge for creative individuals since they have to continue working with people who already owe them salaries. The fact that more actors are coming out and openly talking about this issue goes to show that this is, unfortunately, a common phenomenon in the industry.
Instant & Insensitive Feedback
Things have changed vastly due to social media. Every person watching television nowadays has easy access to social media and most often people are quick to share their opinions about everything from the episode which just aired to the statements given by the celebrities. Apart from this, whenever an episode of a drama is uploaded on YouTube, people give their feedback. This instant feedback can at times be the biggest challenge for an actor since even the smallest of mistakes are picked up by the audience and people most often are not very kind while sharing their opinions. There are also so many people who can be harsh and insensitive while sharing these opinions, this is perhaps the most difficult challenge for an actor.
Maintaining Public Image
The viewers consider actors their ‘property’ and therefore they have certain expectations from them. Even though they follow these celebrities and call themselves their die-hard fans, there is little room for these celebrities to cross those boundaries which the viewers have set for them. The females in particular have to try really hard to protect their public image. Wearing a revealing dress or giving a statement that might hurt people’s sentiments can result in ruining their public image. Even the male actors have to constantly make sure that they do not do anything which hurts the sensitivities of the public. There was a time when actors were more focused on their work and they did not have to put in so much effort to maintain this image since the interaction with the public was not as much as it is today due to technological advancement.
Disrespect from Producers & Channels
Even the most veteran actors have shared how they have been mistreated on the sets by those who run the show and even the co-actors. Everyone knows about the Badar Khalil controversy and how Sultana Siddiqui gave Fawad Khan preference over her. She openly talked about how senior actors are made to sit for hours while the new actors come late on the set and get their scenes recorded first. The channels and the producers have lost respect for the senior actors and in order to be heard, they need to put their foot down.
Imran Ashraf shared how for the longest time he was the one serving tea to everyone because he was just another supporting actor on the set. He also shared in one of his interviews how he was mistreated by his co-actors. Someone as well-known as Muhammad Ahmed faced the same difficulties because he was too polite. Therefore even if an actor is giving his best, he still has to face these situations which are not in his control at all.
The Social Media Angle
Social media has given actors an edge as well but if you look at the bigger picture most actors are not happy with the way social media has impacted their work. Sonya Hussyn and many others have openly shared how important following on social media has become now. The popular actors do not just get acting projects but they get the sponsorships and advertisements as well. Apart from working hard in the field, the actors therefore have to dedicate their energies and resources towards having a definite presence on social media as well because it affects the kind of work they get. This is a real challenge for all those actors who want their work to define them and not the number of followers they have on social media.
Typecasting & Biased
If an actor does well in a certain role, the producers play it safe by casting him in similar roles repeatedly. This definitely affects the diversity which an actor would like to show on the screen. Since nowadays the focus is primarily on ratings and playing it safe, this is happening more than ever. Not only this, more than the performance itself, the looks of an actor also contribute to what kind of a role he will be offered. There are actors such as Imran Ashraf and Gohar Rasheed who are trying hard to swim against the tide. The fact however remains that in the industry especially nowadays the outward appearance of an actor plays a major role in getting him certain kinds of projects.
Even the actresses are chosen based on their skin color which is extremely sad. Therefore, apart from polishing their craft, the actors have to often resort to cosmetic procedures in order to bag quality projects and get noticed by the producers.
Staying Relevant
Another big challenge for those actors who have crossed a certain age is staying relevant. Most of them feel frustrated that Pakistani dramas revolve around the younger lot and therefore they continue to play supporting roles although there are so many stories related to their age group that needs to be told.
Because of this issue, there are so many talented actors who are simply relegated to the background because of their age. The talent, therefore, takes a backseat and age comes first. This makes it difficult for the older actors to stay relevant since there aren’t a lot of roles that are meaty enough to get them the kind of attention they deserve. Although actors do not have a shelf life, in such a scenario their shelf life is highly dependent on the production houses and even the best of actors have to try really hard to stay in the picture and get noticed.
Kudos to all those actors who give commendable performances and continue to impress us despite all these challenges. It is also good to see them talking about the issues they face with so much confidence. There is definitely a need for unions and proper laws that would safeguard the interests of these actors. Also, there is a dire need for diversity in the industry so that everyone who is talented would get to contribute to it in a way that satisfies their creative side as well.
Do share your thoughts about the challenges faced by the actors and what do you think should be done about it?
PSL 6 anthem was released a few days ago. “Groove Mera” is sung by Naseebo Laal, Aima Baig, and Young Stunners. It received a mixed public reaction. It was disliked by many at first, but after listening to it a few times, “Groove Mera” started sounding interesting. When the song was released many celebrities including Yasir Hussain, Gohar Rasheed, and many others came forward and appreciate the efforts of singers and composers. Former world-famous bowler Shoaib Akhtar recently took Instagram to “Review” HBL PSL 6 Anthem.
In his review, he criticized PCB for making such an absurd song and also used harsh words for artists as well. As a response, a few of our celebrities also came forward in support of their fellow artists.
Haroon Shahid in a series of tweets exhibited his disappointment towards Shaoib Akhtar’s remarks.Let’s have a look at the tweets of Haroon Shahid:
So when Shoaib Akhtar was being paid millions by Kolkata Knight Riders and this song came up I bet he would have danced on this track at the Eden Gardens just to impress Shahrukh jee!
Ok I'm not demeaning Shoaib Akhtar but when he talks about aesthetics then let's talk about the way he commentates in English. Unfortunately, not a sentence goes by with grammatical errors. How dare he insult those young musicians in that manner! Aiday tussi A R Rahman 🤷🏻♂️
This guy talks about aesthetics! Here's a guy who commentates in English defining 'Groove' for us in musical terms.
PS. Groove by any definition does not mean Naali! We all know where this is stemming from. Pathetic to see such pettiness.Still love Shoaib for the bowler he was! pic.twitter.com/IAlTzgzmAg
Enough said on Shoaib Akhtar's comments on the PSL 6 anthem. The fact is I'd stand behind if someone tried to disrespect him in the same manner. Peace! Let's hope for a fantastic cricket competition once again. Pakistan Zindabad ❤️

The song ‘Pehle to Kabhi Kabhi gham tha..’, brings along many faded memories of the era of 90s’ when the music industry of Pakistan was one of its kind.

Raqs-e-Bismil is one of the most famous dramas which have started airing recently. Imran Ashraf and Sarah Khan are playing the leading role in the drama. Imran belongs to a family of “Peers”, and has fallen in love with Zohra who is a courtesan. As the story proceeded many ambiguities rose. In a recent interview with BBC Imran Ashraf clarified the storyline of Raqs-e-Bismil.
Imran said: “There is a very important thing about the drama that many people don’t understand. Even those who are talking about the drama didn’t get what the drama is about, five episodes have been aired till now. They are questioning why this is happening which isn’t a bad thing. I will clarify for them. It is a story of two different worlds. Mussa was born in a pious family and Zohra was born in such a family which is taken in a negative light in the society. So these are two different worlds that are colliding. There is a man who is strict and he doesn’t respect women and it’s understood he is bad. Doesn’t he have the right to change him? It is the story of that right.
It won’t be wrong to say that Khuda Aur Mohabbat 3 is one of the most highly anticipated dramas of recent times.

The cryptic teasers have not given away much of the story but have done justice by staying true to the essence of the theme, which is the interlocking of love and spirituality.
The team behind Khuda Aur Mohabbat 3 has also done everything right in order to create the hype and this is exactly why people are looking forward to this beautiful tale revolving around love and the journey of self-discovery so eagerly. Feroze Khan and Iqra Aziz play the roles of Farhad and Mahi, however, it will be interesting to see this fresh pairing creating the magic that the love stories of Khuda Aur Mohabbat are known for. This drama has an ensemble cast and it goes to show that a lot of hard work and thought has gone into making this project, which is why the trailer is speaking for itself. This magical journey starts on February 12, 2021, and the wait is finally over.

When it comes to hair, actresses barely get a chance to experiment and they themselves shy away from playing with the length because it takes a long time for the hair to grow back. Also, the fact that actresses are always active and have one shoot after another, they really do not fancy the idea of having a shorter length of hair because of how monotonous their looks might end up.
However, over the last few years, a lot more actresses have gotten comfortable with the idea of rocking shorter hair because they do understand that they can always rely on hair extensions and weaves if it happens to be the demand of their projects. Therefore in their personal life, they enjoy carrying shorter hair, and more than that, a lot of these actresses have not only just cut the length short, they have shown how differently they can style their short hair too, which always looks good on them.
Here is the list of Pakistani actresses rocking shorter hair:
Alizeh Shah
Alizeh Shah has recently gotten a haircut. After her project Mera Dil Mera Dushman ended, she decided to do something different, which is why she first dyed her hair and a couple of months later, decided to go for a bob cut. This short length not only looks good on Alizeh Shah but it has also taken away the screen age from her. She now looks more her age and is absolutely rocking the shorter hair.
Hania Amir
Hania Amir has always experimented with her hair, this is something she herself spoke about when she appeared on a morning show. Hania Amir has always been very gutsy and feels hair always grows out, therefore it is absolutely fine to go for quirky colors and experiment more and this is what she used to do in her teenage years. However, after stepping into the showbiz industry, she does understand that she can not carry unique colored hair, but the least she can do is play with the length and give herself different makeovers. This is why she is one such actress who always keeps on changing the length of her hair and enjoys the novelty. She looks super cute in shorter hair.
Iqra Aziz
When Iqra Aziz cut her hair short a few years back, she had to come and give out a disclaimer that her shorter hair has not taken away any work opportunities from her. She can always rely on weaves and carry on with her work. Iqra Aziz is one such actress who has tried every hairstyle under the sun which can be done on the shorter hair and because she is naturally blessed with beautiful voluminous hair, the length absolutely doesn’t matter, what does is how good it looks on her.
Madiha Imam
Madiha Imam has herself said that she is very much comfortable with the idea of shorter hair because she has very fine hair and she also finds this length pretty manageable. In recent years Madiha Imam has grown her hair out but she too keeps on going back to a shorter length. In her last dramas such as Muqaddar and Dushman e Jaan, she sported the shorter hair length and looked good on-screen. This hairstyle however makes her look a lot younger than her lead actors but that doesn’t matter because she rocks the shorter hair.
Nimra Khan
Nimra Khan has groomed herself a lot and this is why she too is seen experimenting with her wardrobe choices, her makeup, and her hair as well. She decided to change things up for herself and went quite short but let’s just say, she looks super cute in shorter hair. She too has been wearing her hair in different hairstyles and this length compliments her face cut a lot.
Saheefa Jabbar Khattak
When Saheefa Jabbar Khattak stepped into the drama industry, she had shorter hair. Although she has grown her hair longer now when she used to have shorter hair, she stood out for it because back in those days, not a lot of lead actresses carried such a hairstyle or length. This definitely set her apart and gave her the edge to get noticed a lot more. She too rocked the shorter length and showed that she can look just as chic in short hair as she does in longer hair too.
Sanam Saeed
Sanam Saeed is also one such actress who has always been known for having beautiful luscious locks. Back in the day when she started acting, in her initial projects such as Daam and Mera Naseeb, she had shorter hair, which made her stand out a lot more. Sanam Saeed has recently gone shorter too and the long bob cut looks superb on her and compliments her face cut.
Sania Saeed
Sania Saeed has recently joined the list because she just went all out and decided to go for a wedge cut by the infamous Tariq Amin. Sania Saeed has more or less sported a similar hairstyle in all of her dramas and it’s truly refreshing to see her in such a chic hairstyle, which she is rocking confidently.
Syra Yusuf
Syra Yusuf is one such actress who decided to cut her hair short when she signed Tanhaiyan Naye Silsile. She understood that she had to replicate the look of the iconic character played by Marina Khan in the original series, and this level of professionalism and commitment to her work was appreciated by her team a lot. Since then, she has left quite a mark that she can absolutely rock short hair. Right after parting ways with Shehroz Sabzwari, Syra Yusuf cut her hair short again and posted a famous saying of Coco Chanel that a woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life. Well, she well and truly did and looks stunning in short hair.
Yumna Zaidi
Yumna Zaidi posted a throwback picture in which she had a long bob too. Yumna Zaidi too has been comfortable with the idea of shorter hair and although she has beautiful luscious locks that were admired by all her fans in drama serials Pyar Ke Sadqay and Raaz e Ulfat, it can also be said that she looks stunning either way. Even if she decides to go shorter, she will carry it confidently and look absolutely cute.
This completes the list of Pakistani actresses who have rocked shorter hair lengths. Whose look do you like the most? Feel free to share your views.

PSL6 2021 is about to start and it’s anthem song has got viral all over the internet. Naseebo Lal, Aima Baig, and Young Stunners gave their best but unfortunately, the public’s reaction was totally opposite to what was expected.
Shoaib Akhtar, the fast-bowler of Pakistan cricket team, expressed his distaste for PSL6 anthem song in the latest YouTube video. He said that the music industry is full of talented people yet they failed to make a better song. He sarcastically said that his children got scared after listening to Groove Mera and didn’t talk to him for three days.
Does the song writer even know the actual meaning of Groove, said Shoaib Akhtar while passing his remarks about the song. He finished the video by saying PCB to make a better anthem song next time. If they can’t do it, Shoaib Akhtar is ready to sing PSL’s anthem song.

There have been a lot of speculations about Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari’s wedding dress ever since she got married to Mahmood Choudhry last month. Recently designer Wardha Saleem was spotted in an interview with BBBC Urdu. “Neither did we use a gold wire nor did we put in diamonds on this dress,” said the designer Wardha Saleem, laughing as she spoke to BBC Urdu.
Wardha said that her brand uses the most decent designs for bridal dresses. She revealed that Bakhtawar’s bridal dress contained the most high-quality and decent material from local markets in Pakistan. “Bakhtawar’s chiffon was handmade locally. As a brand, we make use of the best local material [for bridal dresses] available in Pakistan,” she said.
When asked whether she felt nervous on designing the dress for Bakhtawar’s big day, she said it wasn’t true. “You can say we were excited and not under pressure,” adding that the team enjoyed working on the dress knowing how much confidence Bakhtawar had on their brand. Wardha referred to Bakhtawar as a “dream bride” for any brand, saying that in the very first few meetings held between the two to discuss the dress, Bakhtawar told them that she didn’t have any doubt on their capabilities.
“We did hold a few discussions on the customization of the dress,” she said. “However, Bakhtawar never interfered in our work. It took 45 craftsmen to work on Bakhtawar’s bridal dress, they spent a massive 7,000 hours in making the dress. The reason why this dress took so long is because it is handwoven and we used the finest material available. We worked on it for 7 months and for two to three months, we worked double 24 hour shifts,” she added.
Wardha mentioned that after one or two meetings, our approach was so strong that anything else wasn’t needed. “It often happens that when bridal dresses are being made, clients often ask their designers to send them pictures of the dress. However, I personally think this happens when clients do not trust their designers. I think another reason this happens is because everyone has dreams about his/her big day and they want everything to be perfect. However, Bakhtawar wasn’t like that at all and trusted us completely,” said Wardha.

The saying “Old is Gold” often proves to be true. There are many senior actors in our industry who have served the industry for a while but where they felt that now their work could fluctuate even one percent. They either backed away or they turned their attention to something else. Rahat Kazmi’s voice addicts are still under the influence of any other voice.
People never understand this but his son Ali Kazmi gave him courage and recorded his voice for a brand commercial, and Ali Kazmi was given this courage by actress Ushna Shah.
Ali Kazmi while sharing some glimpse from the commercial mentioned that “My Father gave me the greatest gift one anyone could give, he believed in me. As the circle of life continues I had to give him the belief he needed, he felt his voice would not be the same and was reluctant because they belong to the greatest golden generation where they believed in honesty and credibility in ones work and at any age are worried about what they deliver to the audience.”
“So now you decide how he did :) This humble, awe-inspiring human and performer, Is a true Gentleman and Scholar, my hero, my mentor for life and the man I am Honored to call my baba. This is the BTS and a piece from the latest Domex TVC, which has been directed beautifully and has a wonderful message. Narration for Domex TVC”, added Ali Kazmi.
