PTV's Lost Actors !!!

Assalamo Alaikum ..

If you remember , there was a time when the only entertainment channels for the people in Pakistan were PTV and STN .. the dramas of that time are still a part of our sweet memories ..
A few days ago, while searching different channels I stopped on Tanhaiyan .. PTV home is telecasting it on Thursdays( I guess) and the main inspiration for this blog is Amir Hatmi (Saad Salman) who, after being a part of such a super hit drama, is lost somewhere and not only him, there a few more actors who are no more a part of the entertainment industry !
Here is his picture =)

Remember Sona Chandi? One of the sweetest JODI's I've ever seen (What do U think?) and I think both of them vanished after this play ..


OK .. the next in the list is Abgeenay of Chandni Raatein .. Her real name is Faryal Gauhar .. a very decent actress !


 Well, the next is one of my favorites Zaib -un -Nisa .. The lead role was played by Nida Kazmi. She is the daughter famous Pakistani star, Rahat Kazmi .. Zaib -un- Nisa(drama) was actually directed by her own mother Saira Kazmi . Since she got married, she has completely moved away from the media !


One more twinkling star from Tanhaiyan .. the lead actress of this drama called Zara (real name Shahnaz Shaikh)  also worked in Ankahi and according to my knowledge, she only worked in these two serials and then became the host of a musical show .. Undoubtedly, she is a truly gifted artist !


During the late 1990s, the army drama serial 'Alpha Bravo Charlie' was aired. Under Shoaib Mansoor's direction, the drama introduced a number of new actors who remain unforgettable to people even to this day.
The female lead of the drama serial was played by a young girl who had previously not been seen in any other drama. As the viewers got to learn later, the girl had the same real name as her character in the play i.e. Shahnaz. Her full name is Shahnaz Khan ..


And last but not the least .. Ashir Azeem .. the Azhar of Dhuwan .. a dark, tall, handsome guy with such a great talent !



I know I didn't include many of the actors who disappeared  after being a part of such successful productions but hope that you liked this lil effort of mine .. 
Do give your opinion on this blog and if you remember any of such actors .. do discuss it here ..
Take good care of yourselves .. 
Fi Aman Allah !

  8. Mr.Amir Hatmi (Saad Salman of Tanhaiyaan) died. His was living in a apartment of Clifton Block 7, where he was living alone. His body was found on 10-01-2020, and it is persumed that he died 3-4 days ago. Very sad.

  9. Sadden to hear, considering Storm Dennis was going to keep me home-bound indoors today, thought to watch Tanhaaniyaan with family, but was told about his demise.... I don't know why I am so nostalgic... anyway.. good people.. great admirer of all esp Shahnaz Sheikh... time was so slow then... having my childhood in 80's... days were so long.. no mobiles... better eids...
    Anyway I was touched by the deaths of Nazia Hassan, junaid jamshed n Diana n Momammad Ali,the most among famous ppl.. let's spread only n only love... n mend broken hearts... love for all.. :)

  10. By the way, few more to this list from PTV could perhaps include, Khalida Riyasat Qazi Wajid n Roohi Bano...Esp I feel for Roohi Bano, the way she suffered from mental health issues after death of her son in youth.. infact she never could recover completely after his demise.. ever..

  11. I loved it when Shehnaz Sheikh declined an offer from the neighbouring country... she is probably best of the lot... limited acting in just 02 dramas but quality work n left it at climax n culminating point of her fame n demand... esp in Un-Kahi
