After settling in Karachi, his obsession with acting was on peak. Whether the screen was small or large, the audience admired the essence of his acting. His impressive performance and ability to adapt to every role made him a unique actor of his time. He never considered himself a complete actor. Whenever he asked about his acting, he would say, “I’m just learning.” However, he was happy that the TV and filmmakers, recognizing his abilities, gave him the roles he deserved. He was also posthumously awarded the ‘Medal of Excellence’ for his outstanding performance in the field of acting.

He did justice to his every character.

Un-Kahe

He played the role of ‘Mamo’ in the drama serial ‘Un-Kahe.’ If his character ‘Mamo’ removed from this play, then the drama’s real spirit is lost.
