There are so many highly educated people who chose the showbiz industry even though they had the option of pursuing a different career. Some people might not know that there are some famous Pakistani actors who are also doctors. Being a doctor is considered a full-time job and being an actor too requires a lot of work and time. Even then these actors have excelled in their fields. Some of them are not seen on screen often while others make sure that they invest as much time in acting as they do in their other profession. It must not be easy balancing two fields of life both of which require time and commitment.
These Pakistani actors are also doctors.
