On the 14th episode of ‘Iftar Mulaqaat’, the guest of honour was the multi-talented and popular actor-turned-producer Aijaz Aslam.

The show is hosted by the beautiful actress Hina Khawaja Bayat and the culinary expert on board is Chef Shai. For every episode a top tier celebrity is invited and enjoys a hearty conversation with Hina Khawaja Bayat.

Aijaz Aslam is one of the big names in the entertainment industry and has a long list of successful dramas for credited to his name. Not only did he excel in acting but since he’s divulged into being a producer his name has only shone brighter!

When we asked him about his experience being a producer he told us it was time consuming and really hard work, but it pays off well in the end! “Shooting for dramas is more challenging than doing films since it requires more scenes to be done in almost the same amount of time.”

Although with the latest influx of talent in the industry there are few complications arising, mainly commitment and changing directions.

“Naaye logon ke anay se mahol thorra change hua hai. Loge commitment kar k bhi chalay jatay hain, the commercialisation element is evolving,” he said.

“In such times, a producer has to be really careful because if he’s good the word of mouth takes his success up another notch but the same is applicable for bad conduct. If a producer gives a hard time, then the actor becomes careful; word of mouth spreads pretty fast in our industry,” Aslam opined.
