01:03you will see
01:04about your brand
01:05that buzz
01:06comes to ARY
01:07and his sets
01:09which is the first one
01:10which is the most important
01:12you will see
01:14the world
01:15you will see
01:16the same thing
01:17what the game
01:18is in set
01:19Which set is there and what they are doing?
01:21Follow me!
01:49Three hours later, it's a flight from USA.
01:51That's not going to happen. Please, sir, stop it.
01:53After all the proofs, how can I prove that I'm going to listen to it?
01:57For anyone, there is no time to fight.
02:00If you don't understand my story, you will stay away from the road.
02:06I'm going to tell you about it.
02:10It's very clear to my mother.
02:19Ladies and gentlemen, there are two members of Chalbaz,
02:25who haven't come to the set yet.
02:27But we are coming to the set today.
02:28So, today we are going to have a conversation with them.
02:31We had Hammad and Zoha with us.
02:34Assalamualaikum guys, how are you?
02:35Assalamualaikum.
02:36It's okay. Tell us about it.
02:37It's okay.
02:39MashaAllah, MashaAllah, MashaAllah.
02:41This is the highest rated drama of the year.
02:46Alhamdulillah.
02:47So, how does that feel?
02:49It feels great.
02:50I think that when you work for something,
02:52we do so much for appreciation,
02:54you get feedback.
02:55You get feedback.
02:56You get feedback.
02:57And you get to the audience for it.
02:59So, if you like the rating,
03:00you get to the rating,
03:01you get to the rating definitely.
03:03How are you feeling, Zoha?
03:05I mean, it obviously feels great,
03:06your brainchild when it comes to life.
03:08Your brainchild?
03:09I mean, not technically,
03:10but your character as an actor,
03:12your character is your brainchild, right?
03:13Yeah.
03:14And the way you perceive it,
03:15and then you play it.
03:16So, it obviously feels really nice,
03:18when you watch it.
03:21And I feel like actors always work with honesty.
03:24They give 100% of their projects.
03:26But when your project is on,
03:28and you shoot it,
03:29and you start to get 200%,
03:31you start to get more input.
03:33and you start to get more input.
03:34So, if you know,
03:35I'm getting a response.
03:36Okay.
03:37Let me tell you something,
03:38you have decided to decipher that,
03:40what kind of thing in this drama is,
03:43that it's so connected.
03:44Because on the face of it,
03:45it's a pretty usual concept.
03:48It's not that we've never seen such a story on TV.
03:51Yeah.
03:52What is it about Charles Baaz,
03:54that has really connected with the audience in this manner?
03:56Doha?
03:57Tell me.
03:58Tell me.
03:59Okay, Ahmad is ready for this.
04:01Ahmad is ready for this.
04:03We've seen a lot of drama,
04:05which was never a male centric drama.
04:08No.
04:09He didn't tell brothers' story.
04:10He saw how they were living with each other,
04:12how they were in love,
04:13how they were in love,
04:14how they were standing for each other,
04:15how they were standing for each other.
04:16But there are reasons that
04:18that are coming up and that is coming out and the duo
04:20the duo's protagonist,
04:21not the duo's protagonist.
04:22So they are as FORES in this.
04:23H правby,
04:24who is a protagonist,
04:25the trio's protagonist.
04:26They have so many antagonists,
04:27like how they were constantly.
04:28Yeah!
04:29Unfortunately.
04:30Yes,
04:31but the duo made an earlier part,
04:32the two dudes,
04:33who always were willing to know each other,
04:35who were against each other,
04:37held against each other.
04:39So I feel like,
04:40I can relate to each other.
04:41And also,
04:42we can relate to each other.
04:43And many of our seniors
04:45and our mother-boy,
04:46all the same ones.
04:47relate, because in all your lives there is no one
04:49Sometimes you have any problems with your family
04:51I thought why do you relate with that?
04:53Sometimes you have problems that you have to have a rift
04:55and your family has to have a rift
04:57so for that I think it is a lot of response
04:59I think that's true
05:03but also
05:05the family system
05:07that was shown
05:09is shown in the system
05:11and the flaws of the people
05:13you know you don't have to say
05:15you don't have to say that
05:17any system is wrong
05:19people are flawed
05:21so that system can't work out
05:23so the fact that the joint family system
05:25the flaws are highlighted
05:27because there are different family dynamics
05:29there are different family dynamics
05:31that a child is from school
05:33then there are two daughters
05:35who are from a different house
05:37and two brothers
05:39have married children
05:41but there are two different mindsets
05:43and two brothers
05:45are competing
05:47so I think that has somehow clicked
05:49you guys think
05:51that unfortunately
05:53in our society
05:55there are many cases
05:57that is also a reason
05:59that people tend to find solutions
06:01for their problems in dramas
06:03that they are watching
06:05some solutions
06:07no solution
06:08but people are waiting
06:09that what will happen
06:10because the problems
06:11that they created
06:12and the same thing
06:13is the rating of this project
06:14I have told you
06:15that people are relating
06:16and in any family
06:17there are any case
06:19so that's why
06:20did you guys
06:21when you guys took on this role
06:23these characters
06:24did you think
06:25that this kind of bang
06:27will hit and connect
06:29honestly
06:30when I got to know
06:31about this script
06:32when I got to know
06:33when I got to know
06:34about this script
06:35when I got to know
06:36the script
06:37when I got to know
06:38about this script
06:39I studied my character
06:40it was a green flag character
06:41and we like the husbands
06:42who are taking the stand
06:43and obviously they should
06:44take the stand
06:45too
06:46who don't take the stand
06:47and who have red flags
06:48you know that
06:49as well as I do
06:50I think
06:51it's high time
06:52we changed the narrative
06:53and people are perceiving
06:55that they are the most
06:56who are the most
06:57who are the most
06:58who are the most
06:59so when I studied this
07:00first of all
07:01that I was the track
07:02they were the main leads
07:03and they were the most
07:04love story
07:05they were the most
07:06that I was the most
07:07I was reading
07:08and the other thing
07:09that I was the one
07:10that I thought
07:11Aashir
07:12was a girl
07:13who always thought
07:14good for her brother
07:15and never did
07:16disrespect her
07:17but always
07:18I thought
07:19that I could play
07:20the same
07:21because
07:22it's good
07:23because Hamaad
07:24is good
07:25in the actual life
07:26you have to ask
07:27Zohar
07:28that
07:29Zohar will give me
07:30100 out of 100
07:31you will give me
07:32how much?
07:33I will give you 100
07:34you will give 100
07:35you will give 100
07:36you won't give 100
07:37you won't give 100
07:38you won't give 100
07:39but do you see
07:40any similarities
07:41between
07:42Aashir
07:43and Hamaad
07:44yeah I mean
07:45there are different
07:46there are points
07:47I think where they connect
07:48let me know
07:49which points
07:50I think
07:51is also very emotional
07:52and
07:53sensitive
07:54sensitive
07:55so
07:56very positive
07:57what is it?
07:58I am sure
07:59I am sure
08:00I am sure
08:01I am sure
08:02I am sure
08:03I am sure
08:04I am sure
08:05you will give it
08:06so
08:07yeah I mean
08:08they are very sensitive
08:09both of them
08:10I think
08:11there is a similarity
08:12I think he is very close
08:13to his brother
08:14so his brother
08:15has a similarity
08:16so that
08:17so that
08:18and how much
08:19his character is
08:20similar to him?
08:21a lot
08:22a lot
08:23a lot
08:24he is very quick
08:25and his response
08:26is very quick
08:27in Zohar's reality
08:28also
08:29the other one
08:30where something is wrong
08:31he takes his stand
08:32I have seen Zohar's
08:33he takes his stand
08:34he keeps his point
08:35he keeps his point
08:36so he has a lot of similarities
08:38I also tell Zohar's
08:39that
08:40this Ishal
08:4180%
08:42Zohar's

11:29in my job
11:30so I will not invest
11:31so I will not invest
11:32so Zohar
11:33we were always doing
11:3410 minutes before
11:35we talked
11:36and we didn't have
11:37a lot of trouble
11:38one second
11:39what were you doing
11:40at that time?
11:41I would read my book
11:42you read your book
11:43ok
11:44you were reading
11:45or I was reading
11:4610 minutes before
11:47we had a discussion
11:49after the scene
11:50we were saying
11:51good job buddy
11:52that's it
11:53that's it
11:54that's it
11:55that's it
11:56that's it
11:57after 2 months
11:59we had a conversation
12:00that's it
12:01we had to talk
12:02to the scene
12:03we had a coffee
12:04and we had a coffee
12:05shot
12:06and it was viral
12:07so we didn't have a conversation
12:08before
12:09people were saying
12:10what chemistry is
12:11they are not talking about
12:12they are not talking about
12:13they are not talking about
12:14they are not talking about
12:15they were probably
12:16they were talking about
12:17I have no idea
12:18but
12:19it was on air
12:20after that
12:21we had a better
12:22we had a better
12:23we had a better
12:24misunderstanding
12:25we had a better
12:26we had better
12:27and we had better
12:28misunderstanding
12:29after 2 months
12:30we got to know
12:31each other more
12:32and we had a great friend
12:33it was not that
12:34so who initiated
12:35that misunderstanding
12:36is now
12:37both
12:38it was very mutual
12:39in the sense
12:40that
12:41he was sitting with
12:42our director
12:43and I went to ask
12:44something about
12:45the scene
12:46our director
12:47he was there
12:48so I was there
12:49he was sitting
12:50there
12:51and he spoke
12:52and there
12:53I said
12:54that was happened
12:55and he said
12:56that was happened
12:57and he said
12:58that was happened
12:59he has not had it
13:00it was happened
13:01that was happened
13:02that was happened
13:03and it was the reason
13:04God was
13:05I was telling you
13:06what I wanted to say
13:07what's happened
13:08chemistry has developed
13:09but
13:10we didn't talk
13:11that we had a fight
13:12we had a fight
13:14we had a debate
13:15and we were very
13:16civil
13:17we were very professional
13:18It was nice, it was proper scene, we didn't talk after the scene.
13:21But then...
13:22And then after that, after that, the chemistry was less than on-screen or less?
13:26I think there is no difference in the work.
13:29I think your off-screen situation should not affect your job.
13:37I personally think that if you are letting things that are off-set
13:41affect your job, your craft,
13:43then you are not doing justice to your job.
13:45Your work on the screen, yes.
13:46My job is to justice with your character and follow the direction that my director is giving.
13:53So, if I am off-set or off-screen,
13:56that I am going to affect the action and cut
14:00then that is me doing, being unjust to my job.
14:04So, I am not giving my 100%.
14:06Plus, the audience...
14:07The audience has never thought that if you had the mood off behind,
14:12then you are acting on the screen.
14:13They are saying that they are acting on the right.
14:15So, if you have 100 tensions in the house,
14:18we do not take it on the set.
14:19Because there is no tension on the set,
14:21that should stay on set.
14:22When the camera rolls, then you are character.
14:24Then you are Asher and then Ishal.
14:26And you are bonding with the people who want to see.
14:29Yeah.
14:30So, this is our off-camera discussion of the other
14:32and when I talked about Charles Baas' cast,
14:35I asked her also this question because I have been very intrigued.
14:38Yeah.
14:39Now, the slots are not at 7 pm, 8 pm.
14:41Yeah.
14:42You have already seen the slots.
14:43Yes.
14:44Now, the other slots are also.
14:45I think this discussion is going to be over again.
14:48Do you think that the prime time is going to be on our 7th from 11am?
14:52Because at 7pm, mashallah, the rating that Chalbaz is getting is more compared to a lot of the dramas that are getting at 8pm.
15:01So, are you guys happy with this fact as well?
15:04Because it is a bifurcation that we want or don't want.
15:07That our 7pm slot, 9pm, 8pm means that our goal is to do it at 8am.
15:14How do you view that?
15:15I think personally, you obviously have a hierarchy, one is, obviously.
15:25Unsaid?
15:25One is obviously and I think well deserved.
15:29Everybody is where they deserve to be.
15:32That's okay.
15:32And if not, if anybody thinks that it is in some place, say at 9pm or 7pm,
15:39because mostly it is a war, that we all have to get to the 8th slot.
15:43So, I think if anybody thinks that it is stuck in that place,
15:46then you can give your heart to this, that you can give your heart to this,
15:50that when you want, the person will reach where you will reach.
15:54And when the time is right, things happen according to that.
15:56And if you think that at 7pm, I will not kill my knowledge or I will not kill it.
16:01Or at 9pm, I will not kill my knowledge or I will kill it.
16:05That is wrong.
16:06Your job is to, you are getting paid for it.
16:08Very, if bluntly speaking, you are doing your job and you are getting paid for it.
16:12So, do your 100%, give your 100% and do what you are supposed to do.
16:17Like, 7pm, 8pm, 9pm should not affect anything.
16:21Like, should not affect, if I am giving my craft to the fact that they are going to 7pm or 9pm,
16:27that's me doing, again, I am being unfair to my job.
16:30So, I wouldn't do that.
16:31I think that you should be honest with your work and justice.
16:36And then, you can pick your work and pick it up.
16:38I have seen it, you are doing it.
16:40If you think that you have a goal at 8pm and you have a goal at 7pm,
16:44and you have a margin of attention,
16:46this is a matter of how much the script is.
16:48You have to see what I am doing, what I am doing, what I am going to relate.
16:52Now, when I was reading it, I was reading it.
16:55And I was telling everyone on the set,
16:57someone asked me that I will take the operating from 12 to 12 to 12.
17:00This is what I thought.
17:01Why did you have confidence in it?
17:03I was, I was thinking, because everyone has worked a lot.
17:06And when you shoot a project, you know it will work.
17:08As an actor, as a viewer, if you are watching it,
17:10then you think that there is a margin.
17:12So, I am telling you that this will take the rating of 12 to 12,
17:15and it will go up to 12.
17:16So, you probably don't believe it, but after all, I have done it.
17:18Ladies and gentlemen, don't let go.
17:20It's time for a little break.
17:22When we will come back,
17:23we will keep the relationship between Hamaad and Zoha and Zoha.
17:26We will see you after a really short break.
17:31Welcome back, Khawatin and gentlemen.
17:32Hamaad and Zoha are with us.
17:34Yes.
17:35After the success of the process,
17:37in the future, if you have a project offer,
17:41let's say,
17:42what is 7 or 8 or 8.
17:45At 8 o'clock, you don't have a script,
17:47but at 7 o'clock is better.
17:48So, you will choose 8 o'clock or at 7 o'clock?
17:51That depends at that time.
17:53Because, Alhamdulillah, I am getting 8 p.m. scripts now.
17:57Because of Chalbass or generally?
17:59Because of Chalbass.
18:00Because of Chalbass.
18:01Because of Chalbass, you are doing good work.
18:03But you have a boost.
18:05Yes.
18:05I was doing that work two years ago.
18:08But I didn't get that margin.
18:09I wanted to show you what I want.
18:12I got a margin.
18:14I have proved it.
18:15And now everyone is watching me.
18:16And people are casting me for that.
18:18So, I feel like it will be the right time.
18:20Because I will get 8 p.m.
18:21So, I will go to 8 p.m.
18:22But if I get a good job at 9 p.m.
18:24I don't have a good job at 9 p.m.
18:25The director is a good job.
18:26Why not?
18:26So, this doesn't matter?
18:28It matters for me.
18:29I am convinced that I am doing that work.
18:33What about you, Zoha?
18:34I say, this script is what matters most.
18:37I mean, if a character, if a script clicks with you, that's it.
18:42It's not about...
18:43If you're not 101% convinced.
18:47And if you're not giving your 101% for any reason.
18:50If for some reason,
18:52If you're not giving your 8 p.m.
18:54If you're doing a full job at 8 p.m.
18:55Then do that.
18:56Because if you're doing a half-heartedly,
18:59then that will not come out.
19:01Honestly, I feel like my job is like...
19:04Everyone's goal is like...
19:05It's like I can do so much work.
19:08And then...
19:08It's not like I'm so popular.
19:11It's like I'm getting so much money.
19:13No.
19:13I invest myself.
19:14I invest myself in my wardrobe.
19:16It's like a wardrobe.
19:18How does that work?
19:19It's very interesting.
19:20Do you wear your clothes?
19:21Yeah, yeah.
19:22I wear my clothes.
19:23I prefer because I feel like I'm wearing my clothes.
19:25I feel like I'm wearing my clothes.
19:27So, I feel like I'm wearing my character.
19:29So, I feel like I'm wearing my clothes.
19:31You've also done your own styling.
19:32Obviously, we get mood boards.
19:35Yeah, that's all.
19:36We get outline that this is going to happen.
19:38This has to be the structure.
19:39It has to be the color palette.
19:40But then, you have to see it too.
19:42You have to have a sense.
19:43Okay, how have things changed after...
19:46Has life changed after Chalbas in any way?
19:48No, I don't think so in that sense.
19:50Ahmad is saying he's getting more scripts.
19:52Are you getting more scripts?
19:52Yeah, yeah.
19:53Of course.
19:54I think...
19:55Obviously not.
19:56Is there more recognition?
19:57Is there more acknowledgement?
19:58From public?
19:59Yes, of course.
20:00Not from the industry?
20:01Industry also.
20:02Like I was getting...
20:03I'm not going to say that more recognition from the industry.
20:06Because...
20:06Thank God.
20:07After my first project also, I got a lot of recognition.
20:10So, I took a break because of my exams.
20:12So, then I did my second project.
20:14Okay, okay.
20:14Yeah.
20:15What kind of exams?
20:16I'm going to get...
20:19I was giving my O-Levels exams.
20:22Okay.
20:22Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:26Interesting.
20:27Interesting.
20:27Are you done?
20:28With O-Levels, yes.
20:29Yeah.
20:30Did you get your results?
20:31Now you have the results.
20:32Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:32How much more is it?
20:33Good.
20:34I'm going to say, no, no, no.
20:36It was a good result that the drama would be good.
20:37Yeah.
20:38Did you get the results or not?
20:39Yeah, yeah.
20:39Good result.
20:40So, I was doing that.
20:42Then I...
20:43Now I'm doing...
20:44Tell me, you've seen Charles Buz.
20:45I've seen a lot.
20:46For us, there's a problem.
20:48The Rose comes.
20:49And my first question was...
20:51How much pressure is it?
20:52That this is a drama that people are almost...
20:54Rose are watching.
20:56Rose is watching.
20:57Rose is coming.
20:58Rose is coming.
20:59And if there's criticism, then Rose is coming.
21:01Is it an additional pressure?
21:03I don't think so.
21:04No?
21:04Look, criticism makes you better.
21:06And if someone is criticizing...
21:08No, no, no, no, no, no.
21:09What a mess.
21:10You're thinking.
21:11It's amazing.
21:12You make your criticism better.
21:15I feel like you're going to be criticized.
21:16You're going to be criticized at home.
21:18You're going to be criticized at home.
21:19Because I'm not going to work.
21:20Or I'm going to answer.
21:22You're going to be in trouble.
21:22You should work on yourself.
21:24We are very wise.
21:25If you're interested in the show, you can go watch the comment box YouTube or Instagram.
21:31People are loving them.
21:32I don't think that 98% of people are positive feedback.
21:37And if 2% of people are coming, then I'll say that next time I'll do more work.
21:41I'll understand them better.
21:43They'll think better.
21:45And that's the thing.
21:45If you're criticizing yourself, then you work so much and convince them of their performance.
21:52It's your personality that they'll be your fan.
21:54So, don't give a answer.
21:56Just wait for the right time.
21:58Work on yourself.
21:59And let's see.
22:00TED talks with her.
22:04Zohar, tell me something.
22:05This is very interesting.
22:06You just told me you just got done with the O levels.
22:08Yeah.
22:09Well, not technically O levels.
22:11I gave my matriculation exams.
22:12But same thing.
22:13Okay, but you must be a young girl.
22:15Yeah.
22:16It's what I'm getting at.
22:17Is that okay?
22:19Why acting?
22:20Why did you decide to become an actor?
22:22How did this journey start?
22:23I was very young when I started saying that I wanted to get into TV.
22:27Why?
22:28I don't know.
22:28I was very shocked.
22:29Did you watch a lot of TV?
22:31I was, I don't know.
22:33I've been told by my mom.
22:35And I remember very, very, very clearly that I used to watch this.
22:40There was this ad, I remember.
22:42Sabha Ji had a soap.
22:45And that was an ad.
22:46I vividly remember watching it and saying that I want to do this.
22:50Okay.
22:51Soap to do this?
22:52No.
22:53Interesting.
22:54So I was like, that I want to do this.
22:56So my grandma told me that you were very small.
22:58You always say that I want to work on TV.
23:00Even my dad, I used to tell him that I want to do this.
23:03Are you based out of Karachi?
23:04No, no, I'm from Lahore.
23:05From Lahore?
23:06Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:07All of the industry in Karachi, you came from Lahore from Karachi.
23:10Yeah, yeah.
23:10How did the industry welcome you with open doors?
23:13Or did you say that there was a long list, a long list, a long list, a long list?
23:18You have to struggle with challenges.
23:20How was that?
23:21Thank God for that.
23:22My journey has been very smooth.
23:24Okay.
23:24So far, so good.
23:25You have faced problems.
23:26Thank God for that.
23:27It's a welcoming industry.
23:28Very welcoming.
23:28We all say that we don't get work.
23:31There are so many biases here.
23:32There are people in camps, lobbying, and they say that they are wrong.
23:35Hassan, I don't think so.
23:37Because I didn't have any connection to my industry.
23:39I'm from Faisalabad.
23:41I remember that I was very happy when I came first.
23:43I went for audition.
23:44I only did two commercials.
23:46Then someone spotted me.
23:47They called me.
23:48I went for audition.
23:50After six months, I got selected.
23:52And after that, you have seen me.
23:53I worked hard.
23:55People loved me.
23:56And I didn't feel like I needed to do PR.
23:59I needed to do posting.
24:01Or if someone said to me, give me my job.
24:03No.
24:04I did my job with honesty.
24:06And people appreciated me.
24:08And all of them appreciated me.
24:09I'm really glad that all of my seniors were.
24:11And all of them appreciated me.
24:13What a problem.
24:13Because I meet some actors.
24:15And they complain about opportunities.
24:20There's a set group of people.
24:22And people like to work with.
24:24But then there are actors like you.
24:26Young actors.
24:27Budding actors.
24:28Who say that we have auditioned.
24:30We have a chance to do it.
24:31And we don't have to do it.
24:32Why is this different from social media?
24:33Why is this different from social media?
24:34I'm telling you something else.
24:36I worked a lot on social media.
24:38I got a boost.
24:39There were dance videos.
24:40Of course.
24:41And there are millions of views.
24:43So you can see it.
24:45So you don't have to do it.
24:46You don't have to do it.
24:48You can't do it.
24:49Why don't you do it.
24:50You can make yourself better.
24:52Why don't you do it.
24:54Now, this was an opportunity.
24:56A good project.
24:58A script was good.
24:58We gave it 200% to it.
25:00Now, if you're seeing it.
25:01If you're seeing it, you'll have to do it.
25:03If I had to complain.
25:05If I didn't get it at 8 pm.
25:07Or if I didn't get it.
25:08Then what would I do?
25:08I wouldn't do it.
25:10Then I would have to sit at home.
25:11Zohar, you were saying something.
25:12I was saying that I personally believe that when you see sincerity with your work.
25:19So, there is nothing that stops you.
25:22Because when you see your 101% I think it's the law of the universe.
25:25Where what you give is what you get.
25:28So, I'll say this to anybody who aspires to be an actor.
25:32I'd say that if you have a chance of one scene.
25:35Then you have full conviction and full knowledge.
25:37And you have to do it with your own knowledge.
25:41So, if it's a scene, then it will be said.
25:44Because it shouldn't matter.
25:46It doesn't.
25:47Sometimes you'll see.
25:48There are many examples of that.
25:50Who plays, but they somehow don't get the kind of recognition from the public.
25:57Because it's our job of the public.
25:59They decide who they want to see and who they don't want to see.
26:01Plus, it's time of social media.
26:04So, if you have done a scene, then it will be viral.
26:07Yeah, and also because you'll see.
26:10You'll get a drama from nepotism.
26:13You'll get a lot of money from nepotism.
26:15The audience that has to accept you.
26:18Because our job is the public.
26:21If the public wants to see me, then they'll switch the channel.
26:24So, it's all in the hands of Allah, and you give you a hundred and one percent.
26:28So, the rest of the things will be done.
26:30If you work with your 100 percent, then you'll get results.
26:34Yeah.
26:35If you don't think about it, then you'll think about it.
26:37If you have a moment, that you have a camera roll.
26:40I'll do my work 100 percent.
26:42Then, the results will be given to the audience.
26:45So, Zohar, tell me, as we were saying,
26:48they have a strong presence on social media.
26:52Do you feel any pressure of keeping up with social media trends
26:56and social media to create your profile?
26:59Do you want to create content?
27:00Because I believe that this is an additional pressure on actors today.
27:04I think, obviously, you move and change and evolve with the time.
27:08And it is social media.
27:10It happens, I think, but I don't take it personally.
27:12Because I can't give time on social media.
27:16I'm not that active.
27:16I always post it.
27:19If you don't do it, you don't do it.
27:20You don't do it in 6 months.
27:22Okay.
27:22You don't do it in 6 months?
27:24I mean, that's a bit of an exaggeration.
27:26But...
27:27It will be 4 months or 3 months.
27:296 months.
27:31But I'm not very active.
27:33Okay.
27:34That's interesting.
27:34Ahmad, this has changed the perspective in the past few months or years.
27:38I tell you, Hasan, that social media is business as well.
27:42You get DVCs, you get social media campaigns.
27:45So, you have to reach your reach.
27:47And I think, what is it?
27:48Now, my drama is going on, Chalbaz.
27:50I will be posting 2 or 3 times a week.
27:53I will post it.
27:53You're already in season.
27:54Yes.
27:55You're already in season.
27:56Oh, no.
27:57We'll dance in season.
27:58We'll dance.
27:59You're already in season.
28:00I'll tell you, Chalbaz is going on.
28:02People are loving it.
28:03And they want to post content and interact with them.
28:08Then I will do it.
28:08But when I was not playing drama, I didn't.
28:10He's very active on social media.
28:12What are you saying?
28:13But when there's not drama.
28:14When there's not drama, then...
28:15Let's do it.
28:15You have 200 viral reels.
28:17I've seen it.
28:18If you put it, it will be viral.
28:20That...
28:21Oh!
28:22If you put it, it will be viral.
28:23I'll tell you, Chalbaz is good.
28:25But when I was playing drama, I was playing drama.
28:27I love Chalbaz.
28:28His confidence is tremendous.
28:33So, you're singing it.
28:33No, but...
28:35I remember a time ago, 2-1 years ago...
28:38when there was a big conversation...
28:40that actors got roles on social media following.
28:44Who is popular?
28:45And then we'll choose popular actors...
28:47so that the project is hype, YouTube views, etc.
28:50But, Hassan, when we were not popular today...
28:53you're aware that you're popular in drama.
28:55So, I don't think this is a chicken and egg situation.
28:58Yes, I mean...
28:59What happened before, I don't know.
29:01I mean, if you were popular before...
29:03then I don't know who was popular.
29:05We were coming from home.
29:06We were just working on a project.
29:08Like we've seen recent past...
29:10many content creators are becoming actors.
29:13We weren't.
29:13I wasn't.
29:14I think in that case also...
29:16they're doing justice to their roles.
29:19I personally believe that those who have problems...
29:21I think they're doing...
29:22I mean, there's a cast...
29:24they're doing what they're doing.
29:25Exactly.
29:26And they're seeing what they need.
29:27Our directors are very...
29:28Content creation is a very difficult thing.
29:30Those who are saying, they're not easy.
29:32Ajay, tell me, do you guys watch the drama?
29:35No.
29:37I swear...
29:38I haven't watched any episodes of our drama.
29:44Just ask them.
29:46These people tell me that you've watched the episode yesterday...
29:48and I say, no.
29:49So how do you plan to work in this industry...
29:52when you're not watching this industry?
29:54You're right.
29:55This is my flaw.
29:56I believe this.
29:57It's a flaw.
29:58I should be watching what people are doing.
30:01I should see and...
30:02You learn.
30:02Obviously, I won't watch my work.
30:04I'll never understand what my fault is.
30:05You don't even know who the director, writer, actor...
30:08I'm telling you.
30:10It's my genius.
30:10I believe it.
30:11You're going to watch the drama.
30:13If you say, I'll watch it.
30:14I'll watch it.
30:15Which drama?
30:16Which drama will be your first initiation?
30:18Do you suggest it?
30:19You have to watch it.
30:21You have to watch it.
30:22It's a shame.
30:23You won't watch that.
30:25It's a shame.
30:26I don't know.
30:27It's a shame.
30:29I'll watch it.
30:30I'll watch it.
30:32Now, we're going to watch the name of the drama.
30:34You have to watch it.
30:36I'll watch it.
30:37I'll watch it.
30:40Okay, sorry.
30:41What did I say?
30:42Do you watch it?
30:43Yes, I'll watch it.
30:44He watches everything.
30:46He watches everything.
30:48I don't know.
30:49No, no, no.
30:49I've seen you.
30:50I've seen you.
30:51I've seen you.
30:53I've watched you.
30:54I've watched you.
30:55Because it was my project.
30:57It was a great project.
30:59It was a great project.
31:00I've seen you.
31:01I'll watch it.
31:02I'll watch it.
31:02I'll watch it regularly.
31:04I'll watch it regularly.
31:05I'll watch it regularly.
31:06I'll watch it every day on ARY Digital.
31:08You've grown a lot of review culture in the past few years.
31:11How do you feel?
31:12Tell me.
31:14I don't know.
31:14What do I know about these things?
31:17People sit on the sofa.
31:18Honestly, you've always taught me.
31:20So I'm very happy with you.
31:21I feel good.
31:22I feel like you're watching our audience.
31:24If you're watching videos, you're watching videos and you're watching videos.
31:28So if you point out something, it's better for us.
31:31I think constructive criticism is great.
31:33Exactly.
31:34And you're talking about characters.
31:35You don't talk about actors.
31:36You always talk about characters.
31:38So if you're making any flaws or appreciation for us, it's better for us.
31:42We'll work on ourselves.
31:43But I feel like before we were reviewing, we had a lot of discussion on it.
31:50Now we're watching the audience with a lot of fun.
31:54I don't know.
31:54I've probably seen a lot from the audience or not.
31:57But they go to the nitty gritties.
31:58They point out small things.
32:00A lot of actors probably haven't done a scene with that.
32:04But they're saying that you're talking about chemistry.
32:07They don't know that you don't have to talk about it.
32:10But they become an impression and a vision and a perception.
32:15Is there a good thing or a bad thing?
32:16That sometimes there's so much scrutiny that the audience is so invested in the actors.
32:22I've seen a lot of the actors who play the actors, the actors will also be anti.
32:27If they don't agree with any of their character.
32:30You have to ask, why did you do that?
32:32You have to do that.
32:33I know actors who got slapped.
32:34I mean, I don't have to invest so much.
32:37But that's a lot of the actors.
32:40But I think it's their way of showing love.
32:43And if I think that you're saying that you're saying that you make it so believable.
32:48That you're saying that you're just a bad person.
32:51So I think that's your advice.
32:53If I had been playing a negative character.
32:55And someone came and said that you've done it with him.
32:57You've done it with him.
32:58So that's my advice.
32:59That I have acted so believable.
33:01If you're saying that they're just a bad person.
33:03And if you're a couple hits and people are saying that you're saying on-screen chemistry,
33:05it's very rare.
33:06But it's just a good thing.
33:07But it's very difficult for everyone.
33:11Don't say anything.
33:12Don't say anything about your couples.
33:15Just talk to our interview.
33:17Don't say anything about your situation.
33:18You haven't done it right now.
33:19I just want to say that you will have to watch it tomorrow.
33:22It will be 7 pm.
33:24Isha Lain Ashir.
33:25Have fun.
33:26No, you have to watch it. You are watching it.
33:28That's why we are watching it.
33:29This is broadcasting line that I hear 10 times.
33:33The reason why I was asking you that question is because
33:37how do you assess our industry in terms of the content that we are making?
33:41Are you happy with the kind of script you have?
33:44The content, the drama.
33:47Because this year is also finished. We are going to be 2026.
33:49Yes, absolutely.
33:50With the new year, do you think that
33:52you should tell us some stories that we are not able to tell you?
33:55Definitely.
33:56I think there is always a margin.
33:58You don't see the drama. What do you know?
34:00We are telling the stories.
34:01No, but obviously you have to watch the script.
34:04You have to learn more.
34:05I think...
34:06What kind of characters do you offer?
34:08At a fairly young age, I want to know
34:11what kind of characters do you perceive for young girls?
34:14I have played older characters.
34:16Obviously, married women and university students.
34:20So, I have played the same age group.
34:21You have also played the same age group.
34:22You have also played the same age group.
34:23So, both of them were married.
34:24Both of them were married.
34:25Both of them were university students.
34:26Yes.
34:27You see, you have married women.
34:28In the early 20s, mostly people do.
34:30Yeah.
34:31So, that's not enough, I think.
34:32Oh.
34:33How do you offer other characters?
34:35I have been getting quite a few.
34:39In a little range.
34:41But it's a little difference.
34:43But I think there is always room for growth.
34:45In every aspect of life.
34:47What are the kind of characters that you would want to play?
34:49I would want to play very reality-based characters.
34:51I think...
34:52My personal experience is that I would play a character that has suffered.
34:57That is a story of this child.
34:59Back story.
35:00Back story.
35:01Mindless.
35:02So, I would want to.
35:03Obviously, every actor's experience is challenging.
35:07So, I would want to challenge myself.
35:09See myself in different roles.
35:10Obviously, nobody wants to play the same kind of role.
35:13As an actor, I would like to explore different yoners.
35:15Amal, you obviously have worked with Zoha.
35:17You have worked with more people.
35:19What is your assessment of the industry?
35:21And you haven't seen it?
35:22I think that the content is changing with the time.
35:26There are a lot of topics that I'm talking about before.
35:30And also, I've worked for entertainment.
35:32I've worked on a strip that you're normally watching in your life.
35:38So, I think the content is good.
35:40The content is good.
35:41The content is good.
35:42The content is good.
35:43The content is good.
35:44It will be better.
35:45If I want to play in a play,
35:46then I would like to think about what are the problems of a person's life in a person's life.
35:50I would love to work on that.
35:53What are the problems of a person's life in a person's life?
35:56The way you have to manage your family.
35:59When you go to your age, you have to work on your life.
36:04You have to be successful, you have to be married,
36:06you have to be married, you have to be married,
36:08you have to be married.
36:09If you're successful, you get to listen to your stories.
36:11So, you have to be a lot of people.
36:13Justice for men.
36:14Yes.
36:15So, these people face this.
36:16But this story is never been made.
36:17I want to be a man.
36:18I want to be a man.
36:19With a lot of guilt in society.
36:20I have no idea.
36:21I will be a man.
36:22But if it's a story like this,
36:24then it's a man.
36:25It's a man.
36:26I will second you.
36:28A man is a man.
36:29A man is a man.
36:30A man is a man.
36:31A man should tell a story of a man.
36:33A man should tell a story of a man.
36:35A man should tell a story of a man.
36:36But it's not a pleasure.
36:37It was a pleasure chatting with both of you.
36:39I enjoyed it.
36:40I enjoyed it.
36:41I enjoyed it.
36:42I enjoyed it.
36:43I wish you guys all the best.
36:45Before I go,
36:46I enjoyed it.
36:47But all of your fans
36:48who have made it so massively successful.

37:29So, the motivation is so big.
37:32We will do more work.
37:33We will entertain you more.
37:34So, we gave you 100%.
37:36Your feedback was 200%.
37:38Thank you so much for that.
37:39And keep loving us.
37:41Have you signed the next script yet?
37:43Or not yet?
37:44We are reading.
37:45I am reading right now.
37:46Yeah.
37:47And is the next offer yet?
37:48Or is the next offer yet?
37:49Yes, it is.
37:50But now we are looking for a script that is good.
37:54We will definitely use it.
37:55Chances are we will see you again together?
37:56I hope so.
37:57Inshallah.
37:58But this is not a complete decision.
37:59Yes, absolutely.
38:00It depends on the script.
38:01Yeah.
38:02You never know.
38:03You have read or you have signed something?
38:04I am still reading.
38:05I am still reading, yeah.
38:06And you have, this industry is a very special thing.
38:09What?
38:10Because our work is,
38:1250 people have to come together.
38:14Yeah.
38:15To make it happen.
38:16Yeah.
38:17If there is no one person on the set,
38:18it is not possible that the work will be smoothly.
38:20True.
38:21So, you can't say anything for sure.
38:22So, until things are on set, on floor,
38:24because there are so many anomalies,
38:26variables that matter.
38:28So, you can't really say anything for sure.
38:29Very good.
38:30Okay.
38:31As you are watching,
38:32the new actors are very curious.
38:34They talk about it.
38:36They don't have to say anything.
38:39They don't have to say anything.
38:40Whatever they say,
38:41they get to you.
38:42Once again,
38:43it was a pleasure.
38:44I got a chance to learn a lot from both.
38:47I would like to translate and transfer.
38:50In other words,
38:51on that note,
38:52we would like to invite you.
38:53Inshallah,
