Actor and model Babrik Shah has gone through all the ups and downs of the entertainment industry. After a hiatus away from the limelight, he appeared as a guest on GNN Studio Podcast where he talked about professional setbacks. During the podcast Shah said that in 2006, he received the opportunity to move to India for work, but he refused.
“I felt that I cannot live in India because India is a very dirty country, which is considered to be the second dirtiest country in the world,” was the unusual reason he cited.
Babrik then revealed a second reason for not moving to India. “The second reason for not moving to India was the halal food of Muslims, the third reason was the riots in India, because there is no peace there. One reason was that the Indian government does not issue us any passport, and neither can we marry anyone in India nor can we buy a house.”
The host asked, “Adnan Sami sahib has left everything and gone away.”
Babrik replied, “Whatever Adnan Sami got from India was found on the British passport, India does not even issue a passport to anyone on a Pakistani passport. And the other important reason is that Adnan Sami is a singer and a singer for India. They produce 2000 films in 29 languages every year and 10,000 songs are made in these films, so Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Atif Aslam, and others all of them manage to work in India.”
The Zameen Kay Khuda actor shared the experiences of other Pakistani artists who had traveled to India, saying, “After Muammar Rana, I also went to India for work, at that time. The artists, directors, assistant directors, and cameramen there told me that you stay here, you are a talented actor, we will make you a star, you will be cast as a hero in films.”
