Yeah… possibly. His success did come because of his hard work, but it came off poorly despite her intentions.
but in my opinion, the heartthrob thing is kinda true so I disagree with Mehwish. He wasn’t a heart throb before TB. He just wasn’t. He is now because of TB. He worked hard to get to this point … yes…but his hard work before TB didn’t give him this level of stardom. It looks to many like he literally did become the heartthrob in a short short time. So many actors don’t get there despite their years of toiling. I just don’t think he would’ve been such a heart throb without TB, his hard work as Murtasim and the insane yumhaj chemistry.
I mean the man himself said he doesn’t have to put in effort when acting with Yumna lol… maybe he shot himself in the foot with that repeated line of his lolllll.
Now that I think of it…they should give credit where credit is due ….the insane editing and attention on the part of TB fans also gave Murtasim this level of fame. Some of his scenes were ok but when fans made so many amazing compilations and edits, and very generous explanations for his character etc. it just took his scenes to another level. For example, his running with the shawl scene in the darga was good but I also found his galloping kinda funny and weird. But after seeing the chunari edit I was like wowwwww he’s so good. Also… Nooran wrote the shawl stuff specifically in the script…that was not his doing although he carried it off well. But sorry, many can carry a shawl well 🤷♀️ if their character is written with that shawl. His slow mo fan edits… they brought out so much that the regular screen couldn’t show. So much of this trending is literally because of his TB fame and fandom. They were trending for his TMK movie even without seeing it, even in India where it’s not playing lol…so it’s not all because of how well he performed in it.
So yeah, the more I think about it, I can totally see why TB fans could be annoyed by her seemingly ungrateful or non-acknowledging comments.
