Actor Fahad Mustafa has responded sharply to veteran actress Atiqa Odho after her recent comments advising him to work with women closer to his age.

Fahad addressed the issue during a television transmission alongside actor Humayun Saeed, where he reacted to Atiqa’s advice in a sarcastic tone.

“I do not know what problem Atiqa aapa has. Perhaps she will only be happy if Humayun and I start playing heroes opposite her. This has crossed all limits.”

“Atiqa aapa, it seems you are the only heroine left for us now. Inshallah, we will work with you. Just get two or four good surgeries, and we will come,” he added.

Fahad Mustafa is one of Pakistan’s most successful television and film stars, known for balancing mainstream popularity with strong performances. He gained wide recognition through dramas such as Main Abdul Qadir Hoon, Kankar, Dusri Bivi, and Bashar Momin.

Tipu Sharif Exposes Reality Of Pakistan’s Big Channels

Tipu Sharif is an actor who is known for his very natural performances. He always does great work and he is often speaking about animal rights. He is currently starring in two big hits aka Bas Tera Saath Ho and Tapish. The actor is very candid and says what is on his mind. He was a guest on FHM podcast and exposed the biggest three channels of Pakistan.

Tipu Sharif revealed how big channels exploit actors. They will never offer you great roles and if they ever offer you a big character, they will quote a smaller fee. They know that the actor will be stuck and they will work in the drama for lesser money if the role is good. He was exploited this way by ARY Digital who paid him very small amount of money for the drama Kaisi Teri Khudgarzi as they knew the role was good.

Tipu then revealed that he was shocked when he was offered such a big role in Tapish. For the drama he revealed that he will be paid around 20-30 lakh rupees depending upon his days required. But the character is supposed to be ultra rich and to make its wardrobe, Tipu Sharif had to spend 9 lakh rupees which the production does not pay. Thus this is how male actors especially always have to curate their own wardrobe.

About Hum TV, Tipu Sharif revealed that he has not received a call for work for 6 years. They just say that there is no character that suits you. He did a huge drama like Sang e Mar Mar with them and he still never gets any offers from the channel despite having a good relationship with the management.

Usama Khan says Pakistan isn’t ready for global streaming platforms

Actor Usama Khan has questioned whether Pakistan is ready for global streaming platforms, saying the country’s culture of censorship must change before local productions can compete internationally.

In a recent Instagram story, Khan reacted to the government’s announcement that it is working to bring Pakistani films and dramas to platforms such as Netflix.

He argued that international streaming services are driven by authentic and unrestricted storytelling, including true crime, political dramas and stories based on real-life issues, while Pakistani content continues to face strict limitations.

According to Khan, filmmakers and writers are often unable to explore subjects such as politics, crime and history because of censorship, making it difficult to produce the kind of content global OTT platforms expect.

He added that unless artists are given greater creative freedom and the culture of banning content comes to an end, Pakistan will not be fully prepared for the international streaming market.

Khan’s remarks came after Planning and Development Minister Ahsan Iqbal announced that the government is in talks to bring Pakistani productions to Netflix and other global streaming platforms, while also developing a local OTT platform to expand the country’s media exports.
