Fawad had just left Humsafar and he probably sensed that the director-producer’s nephew was here. He gave me a very hard time. This is a different kind of bullying, not the bullying we see on TV. But yeah, he was tough on me, and now that I think about it, that whole period of being… scared to be on set, it was a very difficult period for me. I would get into a lot of arguments with the actors around me. Granted, it wouldn’t be fair to them to have a new person working with them either. The whole experience was not good for me. I wish someone could explain the scenes and dialogue to me. I would receive the script two minutes before we started production, which just added to the hassle. The whole experience was really hard for me. ”

However, it leaked and I had to take action. You must have only watched 20 minutes. I deleted it as soon as possible. Obviously, I couldn’t reach all the media but thank you to all the journalists and my PR team for helping me get it removed,” Sheheryar shared. We tasweer se mai bhi maslay mein padh sakta hoon and woh bhi maslay mein padh sakti hain. Chaar batain hoti, i don’t want that because meri ek human level peh, ek aur human interaction hoi we waqt na mai adakar. tha aur na woh adakar theen.”
