Humayun Saeed recently appeared on a TV show. During the interview, the veteran actor opened up about the criticism and hate he has faced throughout his career.
Reflecting on the backlash he received early on, Humayun shared, “I’ve been receiving hate for all my films ever since I started. I remember when I did my first film, I was age-shamed.
“I played a college student in Inteha, and I was actually in college at the time, but I still faced criticism for my age. I read an article during the release of Inteha that said I looked too old for the character.
“The truth is, I never really looked like a young boy, even when I was one—I always looked like a man.”
