Fahad Mustafa 😆 Just my own subjective POV

Everytime I see him in few serials throughout his career stage I see proper progression in him as an actor, he's one person I feel that has clarity of perspective of why he's in the field & never lost sight of that, indulging in characters/roles that require an assertive ideation of challenge, always pushing himself to the brink and remaining steadfast in further disciplining his faculty as an actor loyal to his craft without succumbing completely to the commercial side of business.

His latest serial Kankar gave an apt visual highlight of his acting prowess, he was so convincing that at times you could even empathise with his character despite the negatives it entailed. He extended so many nuances and different shades of meaning to his character.

So how the hell does he do it, did this guy go to a specialised acting school, or is it all gifted / instinctive / intrinsic part of his repertoire as an actor?

Fahad Mustafa is an awesome, awesome actor! I love this guy. I rate him right aside Faisal Qureshi and Fahad started way after Faisal. I think Fahad has literally done it all. He's very much underrated and unappreciated which i's very annoying. The reason may just be because his formula to choosing scripts isn't typical..he goes for the hatke scripts..where his character isn't the guy who'd girls swoon over every week? 😆
He's plain effortless..I don't think I've ever seen him struggle with any scene let alone show. And to answer your question on whether or not he has gone to acting school. I believe not. He wanted to become a dentist but he didn't get into dentistry school..I guess his second option was to go for acting considering his father is an actor as well...but, I've never heard Fahad say he always aspired to be an actor. I think he chose it as an alternative career when nothing else worked out and somehow just turned out to be this gifted actor.

Because he is just that Awesome!!
Honestly, it was Fawad that got me introduced to Pakistani drama, initial two dramas I ever saw were Dastaan and Humsafar, but I think after I saw Fahad I was like woah!!

He is a really gifted actor, and the thing I like the most are not only his versatile roles but also the looks, I dont think any actor has had that many different looks as much as he does. And he has sooo much contrast as well, from boy-next-door to confused to funny to typical hero to unconventional hero to villain.. just sooo much variation.

And yes its an absolute pity that he doesnt get that much appreciated (I dont think he has ever won best actor), which is kinda lousy but meh, not like Pakistani Awards are of any credibility :P

I do think that its because of actors like him that you can say that Pakistani ppl can act and have class while doing so.. Sheer brilliance are some of his roles.

But I must saw that he wasnt all that awesome from always, and you can clearly see that from his earlier roles, like I was recently seeing Lahasil and it was the best copy of SRK acting I have seen, even the way he made his looks.. but yeah that was almost a decade ago and he has come a long way now and now he acts in his own style.

I really wished they had him as a guest on the Mahira show, would have been nice.. I dont think there are many interviews of him..

I cudn't agree more. I simply do not get it whn someone says he is not a good actor. he is among the best in Pakistan right now. And i agree wth Star he is in the same category as Faisal, they both have done evrything, yet nvr disappointed me(evn been a khusra in a drama).
Evn though i love Fawad, we still havn't seen much of his acting compared to Faisal and Fahad.
