Investigative journalist and renowned TV host Iqrar ul Hassan showered praise on fellow television icon Fahad Mustafa, declaring that the energy and command Fahad brings to Jeeto Pakistan is something truly extraordinary and nearly impossible to replicate.
When asked how he would feel taking over the reins of Jeeto Pakistan, Iqrar didn’t mince words. “I honestly couldn’t do it the way Fahad does,” he said, acknowledging that the job demands far more than just reading cue cards and handing out prizes. “It’s not just a show. It’s a spectacle. And Fahad is the heartbeat of that stage.”
While Iqrar has carved his niche with the hard-hitting investigative series Sar-e-Aam, he believes that shows like Jeeto Pakistan require a completely different skill set something he says Fahad has mastered.
“He has wit, he has timing, and he has that magnetic stage presence,” Iqrar noted. “That energy he carries night after night? That’s no small feat. It’s exhausting, mentally and physically. And yet Fahad makes it look effortless, like it’s second nature.”
