Faysal Quraishi defends Mahira Khan after actor Firdous Jamal calls her ‘over-aged’

Veteran Pakistani actor Firdous Jamal appeared on Faysal Quraishi’s morning show where, while giving his opinion about Pakistani superstar Mahira Khan, the actor said she is just a mediocre model not even actress.

The video clip from the show has been getting attention of social media users where Firdous can be seen saying that she is over-aged and doesn’t fit well as a lead heroine. Mahira’s fans have been disappointed with his statement and a debate has been going on since then on social media.

Host Faysal was also seen shocked to hear such a bold statement from the veteran Pakistani actor. Though he didn’t react to his statement during his show but he defended her through Twitter.

Faysal also drew some ire from Mahira’s fans as he also said she didn’t deliver any hit Pakistani film yet. Replying to one of Mahira’s fans, he wrote, “That's how he thinks, she is a super star and I was shocked too. I praised her 1000 times in my show no one shared that,” he wrote.
