Fahad Mustafa is no stranger to headline-grabbing statements. The Load Wedding star is known to indulge in a healthy mix of honesty, tongue in cheek bluster and good humor in his interviews. His game-show Jeeto Pakistan also puts his attention-worthy antics to good work.
Speaking in an interview about surviving in show-business for over two decades, that too in an industry that routinely witnesses one-hit wonders, Fahad quipped: “The industry-wallahs hate me. I would not have been able to stick around for so long had I not been talented – I would have been sitting at home instead,” he said, adding “I am not a very social person and I don’t like to meet people much. I would rather be playing cricket somewhere. By the grace of God, everything has clicked for me so far.”
On Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad
While that statement might have raised some eye-brows, rest assured, the star has no delusions about what makes him tick. “I am aware of what I can and cannot do – I cannot play James Bond. I play the common man, the everyman, that is how I am able to connect with people,” he explained in response to a query about the kind of roles he chooses.
Fahad further added that his upcoming venture with director Nabeel Qureshi will see him in a brand new avatar. “I am currently working on an out and out action film called Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad. You will be very surprised – It is going to be Pakistan’s first cop film.” Starring alongside Fahad in the project is of course, Mahira Khan. It seems the talented duo of Nabeel Qureshi and Fahad Mustafa are heading in a new direction after collaborating in a series of mostly lighthearted flicks with elements of drama and romance – which their fans will be surely looking forward to.
Final Word
Fahad Mustafa was missing in action in 2019, although last year’s Eid release Load Wedding did considerably well on its digital and satellite release. With his upcoming projects, the Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2 star is leaving no stone unturned to return to the silver screen with a bang. We are looking forward to checking him out in his new action-hero role. Are you, too? Let us know in the comments below.
