In a recent open discussion with host Mukarram Kaleem, veteran actor Waseem Abbas shared his thoughts on Bilal Abbas's portrayal in the popular drama series Ishq Murshid, emphasizing concerns about occasional 'overdoing' of the role by the latter.

While acknowledging Bilal's on-screen chemistry with his co-star, Waseem Abbas expressed that the drama's occasional overacting overshadowed its popularity. During the discussion, he highlighted the director Farooq Rind's significant contributions to TV plays but conveyed confusion about the prioritization of narrative over reality in Rind's latest work.

“I don’t understand how a reasonable man has rented out a room to a young and handsome boy and his daughter and him can romance each other on the rooftop for eight or so minutes,” Waseem contended.

He also highlighted the inconsistent logic underlying this portrayal, “It’s not in a room, no. They choose a place in the open where if they were to get caught, there would be no room for excuses.”

Touching upon Bilal’s craft, Waseem said, “At certain points, Bilal Abbas overacts,” before describing a scene from the drama where he insists the former’s acting is excessively done and fails to match the conversation’s tone.

He remarked, "The play has accumulated a billion views. Bilal is a very handsome and capable actor, having done a lot of good work, but there is no doubt that he's overplaying his character in Ishq Murshid."

Discussing the widely admired on-screen chemistry between Bilal and his co-star Durefishan Saleem, Waseem presented his theory on the series' popularity. "I believe people are captivated by the romantic scenes between the two. Their charming on-screen romance has garnered much attention, and I think it serves to mask many of the show’s faults," he asserted.
