Actor and model Affan Waheed was invited as a guest on Showtime with Ramiz Raja. A video clip of him is going viral on Instagram. He declared Sajal Ali the best actress in the Pakistani industry
The host of the program asked Affan Waheed to choose the best actress among five different actresses, and he chose Sajal Ali. When asked to choose between Sajal Ali and Saba Qamar, Affan Waheed was hesitant and said, “This is a very difficult question. Can I take both names?” However, when the host refused, he said “I chose Sajal Ali as the best actress.”
Powerhouse Sajal Aly is an inspiration to many fans, not just for her performances but also for being remarkably level headed.
The actress recently gave an interview to Fuchsia Magazine at the launch event of Zard Patton Ka Bun. The conversation turned to society’s expectations, and Sajal did not hold back.
“Marriage is often pitched as the endgame for a woman in our society, but that’s not the truth. Marriage can be a beautiful and important part of a woman’s life, but it’s not the ultimate goal. What marriage should be is a support system, and that’s only possible if you find a supportive partner. A woman should always seek independence through education and never lose her sense of self.”
She also shared that, unlike her character Meenu, she never dreamed of becoming a doctor when she grew up. ‘I like always, connected deeply with the character of Meenu and loved being a part of a socially relevant show. Meenu’s story is so important, and I felt honored to bring it to life,” she remarked.
The toughest part of the show for her? Surprisingly, riding the bicycle. “The bike was too big and I fell down a few times. I was scared and hurt, but I didn’t give up,” she said.
Veteran actor, director and writer Saife Hassan was invited as a guest on ‘Mazaq Raat’ hosted by Imran Ashraf. During the show, Saife Hassan talked about threatening to harm himself if his parents didn’t allow him to marry his girlfriend. But it was just a bluff, and the pair have been married for thirty years now.
He said, “I was only 18 when I fell deeply in love with a girl my age, and I was determined to marry her. Although my family was supportive, her parents were opposed to our union due to my youth and lack of financial stability. In my desperation, I told my parents that if I couldn’t be with the girl I loved, I would take my own life. It was a reckless statement, but I was willing to do anything to be with her.”
While we agree with doing everything to convince your parents about marrying the girl of your choice, threatening them with suicide is a route we don’t recommend.
