During a recent podcast episode, Hamza Ali Abbasi openly expresses his dislike for item numbers, reiterating his strong opposition. In a video clip from the interview, the actor discusses common songs and item numbers with fellow artists.
The host can be seen questioning the actor about item numbers, to which Hamza Ali Abbasi replies, “I don’t support item numbers.” He then draws a clear line between what constitutes an item number and what qualifies as music. He gives an impassioned plea for a shift away from explicit sexual content.
“We give ourselves false comfort that one is hot, one is vulgar or one is sexy. There is no such thing as either an item number or normal songs with nothing in between, there is a difference between the two.”
