Indian actress Shehnaaz Gill has praised Pakistani dramas, saying that their portrayal of romance is unmatched and sets them apart from other television industries.
Speaking to Faridoon Shahryar, Shehnaaz named Hania Aamir, Bilal Abbas Khan and Fahad Mustafa among her favourite Pakistani stars.
She also spoke about her admiration for the chemistry and storytelling in Pakistani serials, specifically highlighting Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum and Meri Zindagi Hai Tu.
Explaining what makes Pakistani dramas special, Shehnaaz said that the love stories feel natural because they rely on emotions rather than physical intimacy.
“The romance feels so natural. They don’t even need to touch each other to express love. The way Pakistani dramas show affection without physical contact has a different charm altogether. It feels pure,” she opined.
She added that the emotional restraint and slow burn storytelling make the viewing experience more engaging, concluding, “There is simply no competition for Pakistani dramas.”
Shehnaaz Gill rose to fame after appearing in Bigg Boss 13, where her candid personality and bond with late actor Sidharth Shukla made her one of India’s most beloved television personalities.
Since then, she has successfully transitioned into films, making her Bollywood debut in Salman Khan’s Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan before appearing in projects such as Thank You for Coming.
Alongside acting, she has continued to release music and host celebrity interviews.
