Murad.Adil said, “Even if I agreed to make a film about Waheed Murad’s life, an actor would have to portray him on screen. Can we truly accept anyone in the role of Waheed Murad? Is there an actor who can do justice to his role?”The host asked, “Even if a biopic were made, couldn’t you use his name to earn royalties and contribute in some way? To me, however, his respect and legacy are far more valuable than money.”
Murad replied, “Waheed Murad had his own unique style, and that made him a famous actor. It’s difficult to capture that reality.”
When discussing remakes of Waheed Murad’s films,
Adil remarked, “Many people have approached me about making a film on Waheed Murad’s life, but I always ask them: where can we find actors like Waheed Murad or Zeba?”Someone would have to portray him on screen, but can we accept anyone else in that role? And would they be able to do justice to it as Waheed Murad Sahib did?”
Adil Murad fondly recalled his father’s style, saying, “From the way he walked, sat, moved his hands, to even the movements of his eyes—everything was uniquely his. That’s what made him stand out. Every action he performed made him a complete actor.”
