Babrik Shah Criticizes Fahad Mustafa and Other Stars in Pakistan
Veteran Pakistani actor Babrik Shah has landed in hot water after making bold comments about today’s popular stars. In a recent talk show, Suno To Sahi, Babrik said Fahad Mustafa is more suited for hosting than acting. His remark didn’t go unnoticed — and the backlash was quick.
Babrik compared Fahad Mustafa to the late Tariq Aziz, calling him a strong host but claiming his acting range is limited. He argued that Fahad lacks the depth needed for strong film roles. These comments sparked a wave of debate in the Pakistan entertainment industry.
Babrik didn’t hold back on others either. He called Imran Abbas “not film material” and said he “doesn’t even look like a man.” He also described Fawad Khan as “overrated.” According to Babrik, only Hamza Ali Abbasi has the screen presence needed for film. He also said Ahsan Khan and Faysal Quraishi are better for television.
Public and Celebrities React to Babrik Shah’s Words
Many fans and industry professionals didn’t take his words lightly. Director Nabeel Qureshi responded with humor, suggesting Babrik should “learn a thing or two about acting.”
People on social media called Babrik’s views bitter and outdated. Still, some users agreed with his opinion on certain actors. His comments have reignited the debate over what makes someone truly fit for film in Pakistan.
Is Babrik being honest — or just stuck in the past? Either way, his opinions are causing quite a stir.
