Government awards are traditionally seen as a symbol of honor and recognition for individuals across various professions, including artists. However, amidst Pakistan’s recent socio-political instability, these awards have faced increased scrutiny from the public.

This was particularly evident when Mehwish Hayat and Sajal Aly received the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz, sparking controversy and criticism among some segments of the population.

Renowned industry veteran Nabeel Zafar, known for his iconic roles in dramas like “Dhuwan” and the long-running sitcom “Bulbulay,” shared intriguing insights on the topic.

Despite his comedic success, he briefly delved into more serious roles like in “Sar e Rah.” During a podcast appearance, Zafar made a thought-provoking remark about contemporary award culture.

He suggested that if one finds themselves needing to defend their award win, perhaps they didn’t deserve it in the first place. Zafar highlighted how asking critical questions resulted in him being excluded from future involvement.
