- Veteran actor Firdous Jamal criticizes Pakistan's top actress, Mahira Khan.
- He defended his statement, stating that everyone has their own perspective on beauty.
- Jamal previously criticized Khan in 2019, stating that she should not be cast as a heroine.
The host asked Firdous Jamal, “In the past, you said that Mahira Khan looks old and should not be cast as a heroine in dramas or films, but rather in motherly roles. However, after your statement, the actress delivered an outstanding performance in the blockbuster film The Legend of Maula Jatt. What do you have to say about that?”
In response, Firdous Jamal said, “I still stand by my statement. I simply stated the truth about Mahira Khan’s age. She is an old woman according to her real age.”
Firdous Jamal added, “If people find Mahira Khan beautiful, that’s not my fault. Everyone has their own perspective, and in my view, she is not beautiful.”
The host pointed out that 90% of people in Pakistan find Mahira Khan beautiful, to which Firdous Jamal responded, “If 90% of people are crazy, that’s not my problem. Should I become crazy like them?”
He continued, “I compare acting based on the performances of actresses like Elizabeth Taylor, and everyone has their own point of view. I have my own perspective on acting and beauty, and I see things according to my thoughts and beliefs.”
Firdous Jamal further stated, “I stood by my statement about beauty before, I stand by it today, and I will always stand by it.”
It's worth noting that back in 2019, Firdous Jamal made a statement about Mahira Khan, “If anyone is offended by what I say, I apologize, but I don’t think Mahira Khan should be playing heroine roles anymore. Mahira Khan can be a model, but she is neither a good actress nor a heroine.”
