Fawad Khan, whose web series Barzakh was released today on Zee5, has talked about stardom and his looks. The actor said that he consciously stayed away from the limelight because he wouldn’t be able to handle the downfall. He further stated that If he starts thinking about his stardom then he will stop taking his job seriously. Fawad also shared that people often say that he looks okay which is not a big deal.
In an interview with Mid-Day, Fawad said “Mujhe ghabrahat hoti hai (I feel worried). I sometimes feel I wasn't made for this. And I worry that if I take my stardom seriously, or notice the frills of fame, I will be addicted to it. I consciously stay away from it because aaj hai toh kal nahi. I don't want to reach a pinnacle and then fall from there because the pain will be unbearable. I'd prefer it to be a light thud. Mujhe craft se ishq karne do. If I take my stardom so seriously, I will stop taking my job seriously. Best to remain unaware of it.”
“I have tremendous Godsent luck. I am often told ‘haan thik dikhta hai, itna kya hai?’ (You look okay, what's the big feal?) People assume it's modesty. It's not. I am very realistic. Looks fade and I am grateful to all my fans, female fans. I am thankful that they have supported me so much and got me to where I am today. But I am just as scared of the men in their lives... so best to fear female adulation a tad,” he added.
Barzakh also stars Sanam Saeed, Eman Suleman, Khushhal Khan, Faiza Gillani, Uzma Beg, Sajid Hasan, Imam Syed, Salman Shahid and Muhammad Shah. The Pakistani web series is a family mystery drama which is streaming on Zee5.
