Famous Fathers and Sons of Pakistani Showbiz Industry

Many Pakistani actors believe that acting is something that comes naturally to them. Few of these popular actors have also acquired these great acting skills from their equally talented fathers. A father is a child’s first hero therefore it is no surprise that many Pakistani actors decided to walk the same path as their fathers. These actors carved their own path by working hard. Even though their fathers are well recognized in the field of acting but the fan following of their celebrity sons is not dependent on them.

Here is the list of those sons who decided to become actors just like their fathers.
