In a recent joint interview with her real and reel-life wife Sunita Marshall aka Asma bhabhi, Hasan Ahmed divulged that Naseer was not the character he was originally proposed to from the play, but the makers wanted him to play the eldest brother Jamal – now essayed by Lollywood star Saud Qasmi.
“I told them that I don’t want to do Jamal, but Naseer,” he told the interviewer. “Because Jamal is like a very ‘good’ guy.”
“So I asked the makers if they can let me do Naseer, and after that, I did not hear from them, and even I forgot about the project,” Ahmed added.
