Zaviyar Nauman is a charming and talented Pakistani actor who rose to fame with his debut drama serial Qissa Meher Bano Ka. He is the eldest son of ace actor Nauman Ijaz. His other notable dramas include Sang-e-Maah, Mujhe Pyar Hua Tha, Bakhtawar, Tere Ishq Ke Naam, Agar Tum Saath Ho, and others. Lately, fans have been praising him for his negative role in the new drama serial Ghulam Bashah Sundri, in which he stars alongside Hiba Afridi. The drama is receiving a great response, with an overall 12 million views across its first three episodes. It is directed by Amin Iqbal and produced by Baber Javed.
Recently, Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz appeared on Rise and Shine. During the show, he opened up about the success and viewership of Ghulam Bashah Sundri.
Replying to a question regarding the overwhelming response and success of the drama, Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz said, “No, I wasn’t expecting such a great response from the public, but I am truly thankful for it. I can only say Alhamdulillah. If people have watched it and are liking it, I am grateful. I especially appreciate my director’s efforts.”
Talking about his father’s advice, he said, “My father taught me that acting is a craft you learn by doing it repeatedly. You learn with time, and I agree with that. Rome wasn’t built in a day, so I know there is a process to follow. I will keep working and keep learning. If not today, I will be praised tomorrow. It’s a process, and I believe in following the due process.”
Talking about Nauman Ijaz’s complaints, he said, “There are certain harsh realities of this field that we shouldn’t go into. If you specifically want to ask about them, you should call him and ask what’s happening in the industry. Yes, I come from a privileged background, but that doesn’t mean I am a born actor. People think that just because I’m Nauman Ijaz’s son, I already know acting. He set a standard over 40 years—give me 40 years, and I will prove myself. Also, I have thick skin and can take criticism.”
He further added, “My father does give me advice if he notices something in my work, but there is no specific or fixed advice.” Here is the link to the video:
