An example that I'd like to use here when I say Fawad's lack of interest in Pakistani work is off putting and how that does not equate to his interest in Bollywood being off putting (for any of those who may think this means him working in another industry is a problem).
I'm not a fan of Mahira, never have been but I don't see her doing a film in Bollywood as being a huge issue at all actually. I'm sure Mahira has had other offers post Humsafar from Bollywood or wherever. I'm sure she has had to deny them for whatever reasons..but in between she has done 3 Pakistani films. She signs a film with SRK, and I think that's perfectly okay because who wouldn't sign a film opposite SRK? That's the perfect debut right there. She has this intent to do films/shows wherever she finds necessary based off of content. Who's to say Mahira doesn't care about the money she gets offered for a film in Pakistan? Who's even to say someone like Adeel doesn't care about what he got offered for Ho Mann Jahaan? Adeel is as mainstream as Fawad in all reality (well, maybe a little less). Their contemporaries. I'm sure Adeel wants to make as much money as Fawad if nothing else, but we're flourishing as a film industry and such tantrums need to be suppressed for now at least...but with Fawad there's always some excuse or rumor that something falls short for him to balance work in Pakistan and Bollywood...be it money, quality, too good to be on television now etc. It's just off putting in my opinion. If Mahira can do three Pakistani films and help bring in audiences to Pakistani theaters and then also do a Bollywood film in between..to me that seems like she's just interested in doing work no matter where...and she seems to be trying to do Pakistani films which a lot of our mainstream actors/actresses need to help out with. With Fawad, it's just Bollywood or nothing for now. Bollywood brings in way more money than any Pakistani film..so what are we supposed to make out of that?
