Agree…he should definitely take the opportunities while they are coming and he’s in the spotlight. He has raised some standards and others may start rising too. Who knows… people may lose interest…with new actors coming, or even known actors delivering some stellar shows just like Wahaj did. In this industry, nothing can be taken for granted, so he should absolutely take advantage of the spotlight.
For example, I personally will take a break…might watch jurm b/c I know it’s short, but otherwise am not a die-hard fan, despite him being a great actor. I’m sure there are others like me. I love him as murtasim, he is more than fantastic, and with Yumna and Siraj directing, he is amazing. But, I will not waste my time for a show with him in it if I’m just not feeling the direction/story/other leads etc. ( eg. MPTH, and even Ishaq Jalebi wasn’t my thing b/c I was tired of the main actress and her preachy innocent do gooder type roles. ) others will stick with him forever, but not all of the attention may stay around. So, he should definitely make the most of this great time for him. He can help his family and also have a safety blanket for the future in terms of $$.

After jurm and 22 qadam promos started airing ....I m seeing lots of mixed reactions regarding why wahaj is doing so much work
Lol
Here is my take on it
I don't think it's an overdoseHe is doing just 1 eid telefilm and jurm is a short series which will end in a month
And there is 22 qadam which has been stalled for years
The web series with sajjal will also have minimal viewership just like the other pak web series on OTT platform which only a handful watches
Actors should make hay while the sun shines
Since we get to see only one epi a week
Pak dramas are not a daily indian soap where we see the same faces 6 days a wk for years after years
So I don't mind seeing him once or twice every week the whole year
What is wrong if he is doing full fledged shows back to back
Again it's just once or twice of him a week
That also a few mins as makers stretch the epi with filler scenes and. Characters
We just get a few mins of Saad in mpht and a few mins of murtasim in TB
If people r getting tired of watching him
Then don't watch his shows back to back
They aren't getting vanished from YouTubeStart watching after a few mins when 15+ epis have aired
FQ had been doing back to back shows since last 25 years
People are still liking him and watching him
So what's wrong if wahaj is doing back to back shows in his prime time
Everyone doesn't have to be an eid ka Chand like Fawad Khan or Hamza Abbasi or hibernate like Ahmed Ali Akbar and end up with servant heroines ....all the time we don't have to be so picky and exceptional
Asian viewers like regular content as well with less toxicity like in TB
Plus actors have to support their family too...it's their bread and butter and hence they can't just sit at home at their prime age...I m working my ass off in 2 schools in the morning and private tutions in the evening just to run my family with a single kid and Pakistan has crazy inflation
Are the fans going to pay for wahaj house operating expenses
