Nauman Ijaz’s Surprising Condition for Teaming Up with Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar

Nauman Ijaz and Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar are two prominent figures in the Pakistani entertainment industry, known for their talent but not for having a friendly relationship. They have often expressed criticism of each other on talk shows. Despite this, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar has acknowledged Nauman Ijaz’s exceptional acting skills and cast him in the drama Main Mar Gayi Shaukat Ali, which also featured Mona Liza and Kamran Mujahid in leading roles. This drama was produced by Rashid Khuwaja, a well-known name behind many successful film and TV projects.

Recently, during an appearance on Gup Shab hosted by Vasay Chaudhary, Rashid Khuwaja revealed an unexpected condition Nauman Ijaz set before agreeing to work on Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s project. When asked how he managed to bring Nauman Ijaz and Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar together, Rashid Khuwaja shared that Nauman Ijaz liked the script but insisted that the writer not be present on the set while he was working. Since Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar himself recommended Nauman for the role, Rashid Khuwaja conveyed this condition to the writer, who accepted and stayed away from the set, allowing the production to proceed smoothly. This arrangement contributed to the success of the show.

Main Mar Gayi Shaukat Ali became a popular ATV drama serial, widely appreciated by viewers, particularly for Nauman Ijaz’s compelling performance in a negative role.
