Actors Of The Week – The roundup of actors who impressed us with their performances. Sarwat Gillani, Gohar Rasheed, Zara Noor Abbas & more.
1. Azaan Sami Khan as Farhad in Main Manto Nahi Hoon
Loving how Azaan has made Farhad a character who seems vulnerable and totally harmless at one moment, and the very next, comes across as someone sinister and psychologically twisted.
2. Khushhal Khan as Meraan in Biryani
The quiet, serious, yet impactful presence that Khushhal has brought to Meraan’s character is worth mentioning and makes us want to explore more about Meer’s life.
3. Sarwat Gilani as Gul Mehar in Biryani
It is a treat to watch her back on screen in this character. Gul Mehar’s presence in Meeran’s life is calming, guiding, and makes us curious to know — who is she really?
4. Komal Meer as Zarnab in Goonj
The way Komal is portraying the trauma, dilemma, and confusion in Zarnab’s mind about what exactly to do and how to deal with Nabeel without undermining her position is relatable to so many girls and feels very realistic.
5. Gohar Rasheed as Nabeel in Goonj
A big shout-out to Gohar Rasheed for performing this character in such a way that Nabeel actually gets under your skin. You can’t help but detest him and can’t wait for someone to put him in his place.
6. Zara Noor Abbas as Bushra in Ek Jhooti Kahani
What fun it is to watch her as Bushra! The comic timing, the expressions, the dialogue delivery — everything is on point. She’s giving us comedy without crossing the line into exaggerated or unnecessarily loud expressions.
7. Mohib Mirza as Irfan in Ek Jhooti Kahani
Subtle yet spot on, Mohib Mirza shows how you can play a humorous character without going overboard in expressions or dialogue delivery.
