A legendary actor with decades of experience in dramas, an excellent producer, a host of uplifting morning shows and entertaining game shows: these are just some of the amazing and awesome accomplishments that define Mr. Faysal Quraishi, a legendary Pakistan actor followed by millions of people on social media.
The aforementioned facts are just some of the reasons why I wanted to interview Faysal Quraishi. An interview that I absolutely loved doing, as you can watch below directly via YouTube:
During the lively 40 minute interview via Instagram Live, we spoke about many topics – including his current dramas such as ‘Muqadaar‘, ‘Gustakh‘ and ‘Log Kia Kehenge‘.
We also conversed whether he plans to do morning shows again in the near future, given the fact that his morning shows were incredibly popular not just in Pakistan, but also among the Pakistani diaspora in the West and elsewhere.
In the interview, I also asked the highly experienced actor about what sort of support the local industry needs from the state in terms of promoting Pakistani dramas in other languages such Turkish and Russian.
Another pressing topic we touched on was about some of the challenges the country’s drama and film industry is facing amidst the coronavirus pandemic as well as how the entertainment industry is handling this challenge and what is being done to keep actors, actresses and crews safe on sets.
