I don't want to reach a pinnacle and then fall: Fawad

Looks fade and I am grateful to all my fans: Fawad

‘Barzakh’ will premiere on ZEE5 on July 19th

Pakistani supernatural TV Series ‘Barzakh’ will premiere on ZEE5 on July 19th. The series also stars Bollywood actor Fawad Khan. 

Fawad Khan is currently involved in promotional activities pertaining to ‘Barzakh.’ In an interview with MidDay during the promotion, Fawad was asked talked about how the craft mattered to him more than stardom. “Mujhe ghabrahat hoti hai (I feel worried). I sometimes feel I wasn’t made for this. And I worry that if I take my stardom seriously, or notice the frills of fame, I will be addicted to it. I consciously stay away from it because aaj hai toh kal nahi. I don’t want to reach a pinnacle and then fall from there because the pain will be unbearable. I’d prefer it to be a light thud. Mujhe craft se ishq karne do (let me fall in love with my craft). If I take my stardom so seriously, I will stop taking my job seriously. Best to remain unaware of it,” Fawad said.

Fawad has a phenomenal fan following among women. He is however cautious about not letting that direct his actions. I have tremendous Godsent luck. “I am often told ‘haan thik dikhta hai, itna kya hai?’ (You look okay, what’s the big deal?) People assume it’s modesty. It’s not. I am very realistic. Looks fade and I am grateful to all my fans, female fans. I am thankful that they have supported me so much and got me to where I am today. But I am just as scared of the men in their lives… so best to fear female adulation a tad,” Fawad added.
