Babrak Shah Calls Fawad Khan “Overrated,” Says Fahad Mustafa is Not an Actor

Veteran Pakistani actor and singer Babrak Shah, once a popular face in films, has sparked debate with his bold remarks about today’s leading stars. Appearing as a guest on a private TV channel program, Babrak openly criticized some of Pakistan’s biggest names in the entertainment industry.

In a segment where he was asked to rate current actors based on their performances in films, Babrak Shah gave mixed and blunt opinions. He called Hamza Ali Abbasi a “true film hero,” awarding him 7 out of 10 points for his acting.

However, his comments about other actors were far more critical. He gave Imran Abbas, Ahsan Khan, and Faisal Qureshi full marks (10/10) for television but 0 for films, saying they are not suitable for the big screen.

When asked about superstar Fawad Khan, Babrak Shah gave him just 5 out of 10, dismissing him as “overrated.” He went further, claiming that Fawad lacks true acting talent and that filmmakers are “forcing him” into roles.

His harshest words, however, were reserved for Fahad Mustafa. Babrak bluntly stated that Fahad is “not made for films” and even in television dramas, his acting is “nothing special.” He acknowledged Fahad’s success as a host, but insisted he cannot be considered a serious actor.

These remarks quickly grabbed attention online, as both Fawad Khan and Fahad Mustafa are among Pakistan’s most celebrated stars. Fans of both actors strongly defended their favorites, while others agreed with Babrak’s blunt critique.
