Recently, Sohail Sameer appeared on Ahmed Ali Butt’s podcast, where he discussed the unprofessional attitude of the Pakistani drama industry. He also revealed the reason why Pakistan has not produced superstars in recent years.
Speaking about it, he said, “Our biggest problem is that we lack acceptance. We don’t accept anyone, which is why we have no true superstars. Those who are superstars have no acceptance, they struggle with their stardom because no one is ready to acknowledge their stature. They make a name for themselves, they are part of this industry but people don’t love or recognize them the way they deserve. Our own industry people often criticize these superstars, saying things like, ‘What does he know about acting?’ Our talents are rarely appreciated. For example, even if you are a good host, no one will openly acknowledge your skills—they’ll just say, ‘It’s your luck that you are doing this job.’ Our actresses face backlash too; people within the industry often speak negatively about them.” Here is the link to the video:
