In a recent interview with a digital magazine, Fahad Mustafa, a prominent Pakistani actor, host, and producer, shared his perspective on his success in the entertainment industry.
He attributed his rise to fame to the fact that many of his peers left for Bollywood, allowing him to stand out in Pakistan.
Mustafa revealed that his mentor, Humayun Saeed, had advised him to focus on the local industry instead of chasing temporary opportunities in India.
“Humayun bhai taught me that while Indian and Turkish series come and go, our own industry is where we should build our careers,” Mustafa said.
He added, “While everyone was heading to India, I stayed and became a superstar because there was less competition. Now, as people turn to Turkey, I remain here and aim to become even more successful.”
Mustafa emphasized the importance of believing in one’s own audience and contributing to the growth of the local industry. He recently made a notable return to acting after nine years with the serial ‘Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum,’ alongside Hania Aamir and Emmad Irfani.
