I genuinely believe that Fahad Mustafa and Sanam Baloch are perhaps the most underrated, leading actors at the moment in Pakistan. I think this is more factual now.

They don't get enough recognition or appreciation for their work and probably never will and it's kind of sad. Sanam Baloch is perhaps one of the most popular (apart from being a brilliant performer) Pakistani actresses in recent time, YET she's hardly ever recognized.

Daam?

Kankar?

Durre Shahwar?

Dastaan?

Doraha?

I fail to understand how someone with arguably the most memorable performances/shows in the past few years is always unappreciated.

Fahad Mustafa - he's like the male Sanam Baloch. 😆 always ignored. I think Fahad Mustafa has it worse though.

I concur!

These two just set and surpass the standard of being underrated!

TBH, if I was FM I would be pretty pissed with the HumTV awards. Sure the popular category they were biased and gave away all the awards to the show that was directed by their CEO and fangirls just love FK, but they could have done justice with the jury category.

I dont even know why FM went to those awards, did they again give him the super consolation prize of best Host.. pathetic!

Did Sanam Baloch snub them? That would be the right thing!

P.S. I am not against FK, but really felt that FM should have won! Seriously SB and FM lifted a show that would have been otherwise quite boring and uninteresting topic, I just watched it for their acting.. but boo life isnt fair!

If I were Fahad Mustafa I'd be very pissed myself. I'd probably quit that lousy morning talk show thing he hosts for their channel. 😆

I understand Fawad winning the best male actor viewers' choice because technically his performance was the most popular one when compared to the other nominees..whether or not he was indeed the best actor in that respective category is another story. However, the jury award belonged to Fahad I feel. I think Noman Ejaz is a great actor, but really? is there ever a time when he does NOT win an award at an awards show? There seems to be this infatuation with always handing him an award in every award show regardless. He received best popular male actor last year for BARI APPA I believe? w-t-f? 😕 The saving grace of Noman winning is that he's actually a good actor so at least we haven't seen a blunder where the weakest link ended up winning same with Sania..however, performances need to be taken into consideration for a change...but as you said, life isn't fair. 😆

It's not even this awards show..it's just the fact in general that Fahad - a.) has NEVER won an award, ever..b.) why doesn't he get his due in terms of recognition and popularity otherwise? c.) and that very annoying channel that has hired him as their host fails to ever give him any publicity. I remember when Kankar was about to air, and even throughout its course and then in the end...Humtv NEVER promoted Kankar at all. I mean Fahad is the freakin host of Humtv's morning show..he hosts most of their promotions on that show, YET you're not going to promote HIS show which is airing on Fridays, primetime? That's just plain unfair. Not unless you're a Fawad or Mahira..your show doesn't get much publicity from this shrewd channel.

Sanam Baloch deserved the jury award..Sania Saeed wasn't her best in Aseer Zaidi. Granted I saw some bits of the show..but, it wasn't her best at all.

LOL and Sultana Siddiqui got best director for ZGH solely because she's the CEO of that channel. Otherwise, her direction wasn't award-worthy as say the writing or performances.

No, Sanam Baloch never snubbed them..the only person who really snubbed them seems to be Faisal Qureshi. 😆

And, exactly..Sanam B and Fahad made Kankar what it was through their worthwhile performances..it sucks to know that show went unnoticed by the very own channel who broadcasted it.

Humph maybe they dont snub these awards because they are soo used to it.

Seriously ZGH was a good show and all but the unfairness that is shown by the channel just makes me dislike it unneccessarily.

And u know what, find dont give best actor to Fahad because his wasnt the most pleasant and hero-like character.

In fact Fahad made it so that no girl ever wished for Sikander, but Sanam Baloch.. are you kidding me.

Sanam Saeed was Not that good when compared SB, in fact her character was more annoying and made me not watch the show because of her, whereas all Kiran was very powerful and SB's acting was just flawless.

But pst, biased channel and biased awards!

I think Fahad has probably just resigned himself to his fate now. As long as he keeps his experimental streak going and continues to hone his craft further and churn out top notch performances likewise with Sanam.

I don't think Sanam Baloch honestly cares anymore. From what I remember..the last big award function she attended were the Lux Style Awards back when she was nominated for Dastaan. She however did NOT win best actress for that show when she truly deserved it. I have never seen her attend any award function ever since. I remember when she lost out and Bushra Ansari won instead..they focused on Sanam Baloch's face and she seemed disappointed and I don't blame her. I feel she has just stopped caring about these award shows ever since..the fact that she hasn't attended one in years, ever since..says a lot.

I loved ZGH..and I adored Sanam Saeed as Kashaf, I really did. I would rate that as Sanam Saeed's best performance and one of the best performances by a female this past year..however, after I saw Kankar..which was AFTER ZGH..I would be lying if I said that Sanam Baloch didn't edge Sanam Saeed... Sanam Baloch is a far more efffortless. That's not to take away anything from Sanam Saeed..I think she deserved recognition for Kashaf and I'm glad she did...what annoys me is how these award shows never acknowledge Sanam Baloch despite her acting the pants off of most of her contemporaries. I truly feel she deserved the best jury actress award. What Sania Saeed did in Aseer Zaidi was commendable but not award worthy in my opinion. Kankar was much more path breaking and Kiran in particular. Sanam Baloch made Kiran and that show what it was despite its controversies..and it's sad to see the very own channel that broadcasted it, fail to recognize it.

Fahad Mustafa is only 31 years old..yet look at his resume..it's filled with versatility. His contemporaries can only dream of doing the work this guy has done thus far..just sucks to know that he has yet to get acknowledged for any of it.

I really wish Kankar got some recognition by the very same channel that aired it..it's very unfair that it didn't. I guess TRPs mean a lot more to Humtv.

I know..I just hope these two keep on doing what they're best at. Though I find it all very discouraging. Not just these two..Saba Qamar is also a victim of these commercial awards shows in Pakistan. All such brilliant performers..yet hardly ever acknowledged.
