Loved celebrity Faysal Quraishi opened up about his experiences, personal journey, and fervent support for child protection in a sincere and enlightening discussion with presenter Frieha Altaf on the FWhy Podcast. Faysal discussed significant events in his life with a surprising level of candor and honesty, from early crushes through his unrelenting quest for success and the difficulties he encountered.
The well-known actor Faysal spoke about his upbringing as the sole child of a family whose father briefly entered show business but quit owing to a lack of patience. He said, “He lacked the patience.
The actor began his acting career in Lahore, where he was born, raised, and educated. He recalled visiting Karachi because his grandparents on both sides of his family lived there for a spell. He also remembered having to go back, though. The actor admitted, “The time was such that we had to run back.”
In a startlingly brief period of just four years, Faysal entered the film industry in 1992 and completed a staggering 19 films up to 1996, but his personal life was impacted by his father’s deteriorating health. He was in a coma on the bed when my first movie came out. Please wake up, I kept pleading with him. Come watch my movie. People tell me not to talk about these topics when I do. I inquired, “Why not?” People need to be aware…You know, we used to receive Rs 200 for transportation when we shot movies. I would have saved that in some way, intending to utilize it at home, he said.
The actor also related personal financial struggles, like being kicked out of a rented home because of unpaid rent, illuminating the challenging circumstances he encountered before becoming famous.

“Boota was Boota,” said Faysal while speaking of his breakout performance in the renowned drama series Boota from Toba Tek Singh, to which Frieha added, “Superhit.” After that, I never looked back, said Faysal. His recognition as a main actor was greatly influenced by the success of the series.
During the podcast, Faysal also discussed his early love interest, saying, “It’s been a while. Yes, Babra Jee (Babra Sharif) was my first love when I was a child. My mother claims that I went to a shoot and simply sat there declaring my desire to wed her. He also discussed his kids, praising his daughter Aayat’s love of reading and writing and referring to his son Farman as a “typical boy.”
The well-known actor also spoke about his close relationship with fellow performer Aijaz Aslam, who audaciously informed Humayun Saeed that Faysal was the rightful recipient of the LUX Style Award during the ceremony. Faysal was originally taken aback by this act. The two became lifelong friends after a shopping trip the next day. In addition, he expressed gratitude for Adnan Siddiqui’s insightful business advice and emphasized the need to seek out mentorship in the field.
About Bollywood
Faysal openly shared his concerns about working in Bollywood, pointing out the divisive nature of some Indian teams that unfairly portray Pakistan. He emphasized the value of fostering goodwill and mutual understanding between the two nations. He declined when asked if he had worked on any Bollywood projects. “There, we don’t get along. I speak my heart when I speak. Even my supporters are outraged, but what can one do? At this time, you have to mistreat Pakistan if you want a successful Bollywood film.
In the end, he did the same thing. He said, “Open Netflix, pick out an Indian serial or film – recently, everyone from Pakistan was supporting Shah Rukh’s feature. Make Pakistan and the ISI seem terrible, and gain notoriety in your nation by doing so. Both hearing and seeing it hurt. We’re discussing harmony. Show me one instance where we welcomed a visitor from Hindustan and treated them respectfully, including while Bilawal Bhutto Zardari was in office. We say, “No, they are home,” while opening our hearts. “Let it be” What sort of remarks are being made there?
When asked to share a message near the end of the podcast, Faysal responded, “Lies work on the internet. Recognize this. Develop patience within of you. It is best to talk about things after you have a good understanding of them.
