Aagha Ali, despite his background in showbiz, had to exert much more effort than others to thrive in the competitive industry. Despite starring in top-rated dramas, he faced numerous challenges.
During a recent podcast appearance, Aagha revealed himself as always having been passionate about acting and deeply inspired by his late father, Agha Sikander, a prominent actor from the eighties. 'My father passed away at a young age. I used to watch him rehearse dialogues constantly. That's when I decided I wanted to fulfill his acting legacy,' he shared."
Aagha now shares the screen with many of the actors who previously worked with his late father and revealed that the Dil e Gumshuda actor loves it when they make comparisons or find similarities between father and son.
On the podcast, Aagha discussed how he believes that vulgarity is never essential in relaying messages to an audience. He emphasised the idea that messages can always be delivered tastefully and within norms, no matter how bold the topic may be.
Aagha also provided examples of how Pakistani dramas have consistently respected boundaries. “There are times when the actress' partners do not want them to do any touchy-feely scenes,” he said. The actor revealed that there might have been instances where he has had to stand his ground and tell the director to make the necessary changes in how the scenes will be filmed to respect his co-stars.
