Nauman Ijaz, one of Pakistan’s most esteemed actors, has recently opened up about his reservations regarding his son, Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz, entering the acting industry. Known for his exceptional talent and dedication, Nauman Ijaz has become a household name, celebrated for transforming ordinary stories into extraordinary performances. Throughout his decades-long career, he has delivered numerous hits and earned a reputation as a distinguished actor and host.
In a candid interview on Meer Means Business, Nauman Ijaz shared his insights on the entertainment industry and his personal experiences. He expressed concern over the younger generation’s tendency to overlook hard work in favor of shortcuts, which he believes is a detrimental approach.
During the interview, Nauman made a surprising revelation about his son Zaviyar’s career choice. He admitted that he never wanted his son to become an actor, despite Zaviyar’s recent success in the industry. Nauman shared that he never exposed his sons to his work environment, keeping them away from sets and not inviting fellow artists to their home.
“I never wanted my son to become an actor. It was written in his fate otherwise. I never took my sons to any set I was working on and never invited over any artists to my house,” Nauman disclosed. He emphasized that at home, he leads a normal life, handling household chores and handyman tasks, which contrasts sharply with the glamor of the acting world.
Nauman explained his reluctance by highlighting the difficulties of surviving in the acting industry. “Surviving here is difficult,” he stated, underscoring the challenges faced by actors in maintaining a stable career.
Despite his initial reservations, Zaviyar Nauman Ijaz has made a promising start in the industry, steadily carving out a niche for himself with strong performances and good script choices. As Zaviyar continues to build his career, he has the guidance and experience of his father to draw upon, even if it wasn’t part of Nauman’s original plan.
