After the much talked-about success of Fawad Khan and Ali Zafar’s relatively long stint in the Indian film industry (and a couple of not so successful attempts by other Pakistanis) here’s someone who has all the makings of a successful film actor.
His name is Faizan Khawaja and he will soon be seen in a film titled Bankster, directed by Azaan Khan, the son of the heartthrob of the ’80s Zeenat Aman. Faizan K is no stranger to Pakistani audiences as he has worked in quite a few TV drama serials in the last three years, including Meri Laadli, Mann Ke Moti and Main Gunehgaar Nahin. So, all the best, Faizan K!

Pakistani actors have to really work hard in intensely competitive Bollywood. Bollywood is not just about acting or looks, its about becoming a star. Its a 360 brand management. From a list of Pakistani actors i.e. legendary Mohammad Ali n his wife, Salman Shahid, Fakhar-e-Alam, Veena Malik, Sophia Loren, Meera, Javed Sheikh, Fawad Khan, Ali Zafar, Meekal Hassan, Ali Zafar, Humaima, Shahrooz Sabzwari, Rashid Naz, Manzar Sehbai, Mahira etc its only Ali Zafar who have managed to stay on and has done hieghest number of movies (8 in total) - though none have been rated as HIT but managed to get a critical acclaim. So whats the secret? Creating a star out of you is not something that comes naturally to every actor. It needs to be learnt. i believe it will take us atleast two years of such experiments before creating a strong mark in bollywood.
