Why Did Iman Ali Leave Khalilur Rehman Qamar’s Film?

Iman Ali, the Pakistani model-turned-actor, recently spoke on a talk show with host Vasay Chaudhry. She shared her script preferences and wanted to be part of the 2016 hit drama “Dillagi.”

Iman said, “I wish I had done that script…starring Humayun Saeed and Mehwish Hayat, Dillagi.” The actor shared that she chose not to take on the project due to its summer shooting schedule, stating, “I really liked Dillagi’s script but the project was scheduled for shoot summer.”

Iman clarified she receives good scripts but is highly selective. She mentioned remembering “Dillagi” as one such instance. She also mentioned another script from a director she prefers not to work with.

Chaudhry named the director in question as Khalilur Rehman Qamar. In the same interview, Iman disclosed that merely three days before the commencement of shooting for a film written by Qamar, she opted out of the project voluntarily, without any dismissal.

While the celeb did not explicitly mention the film’s name, she clarified that even director Nadeem Baig did not object to her decision. She cited her disagreement with the film’s storyline as the primary reason for her refusal. Furthermore, Iman asserted her resolve to avoid working in any play or film authored by Qamar.
