Renowned Pakistani celebrity Shaista Lodhi is making her TV debut, DawnNews reported.
“Since I’ve taken a break from my morning show, I thought let’s just try this,” she said.
The serial Khwaab Nagar, which has been produced by Fahad Mustafa and Ali Kazmi and directed by Syed Atif Hussain, will see Lodhi in the lead role.
Lodhi said that initially she was doubtful of her decision. “But I’ve done it and let’s see how people will react,” she said.
Though this is Lodhi’s first venture onto the small screen, she’s not rushing into signing any more TV serials just yet. She’s testing the waters to see the feedback and her own acting.
“Let me just focus on acting right now, busy with this drama, I don’t want to accept any other offer from any other productions house for the time being.
“Let me see how it [my acting] appears on screen and then I’ll decide which production I’ll want to be a part of and whether I’ll continue doing dramas. First, let me see the feedback and myself on screen as an actor and then I’ll decide.”
At this point, her only concern is whether her fans will be accepting of her as an actor; though she admits it’s not going to be easy for them to see the transition.
