Pakistani actors and actresses have time and again been ignored by the government despite providing decades-long entertainment.
Only recently we have lost actor Matloob-ur-Rehman and actress Nusrat Ara Begum to prolonged ailments. They have essayed roles of Zakoota and Bill Balotri respectively in Ainak Wala Jinn.
Have anything to add?
