Pakistani actress and model Shazeal Shoukat, known for her outspoken nature and confident demeanor, recently made headlines with her fiery remarks about Bollywood and Fawad Khan.
During a candid appearance on a podcast, Shazeal discussed her aspirations of working in Bollywood. She shared that she firmly believes in the power of manifestation — creating the reality she desires by visualizing it. “I want to work in Bollywood, but only when there is acceptance and respect from their side,” she said. “I have manifested this dream, and I’ll wait for the day they own me with pride.”
However, the conversation took a bold turn when she was indirectly asked about Fawad Khan, who has faced controversies in India in the past. Fawad’s film posters were removed, promotions halted, and the film’s release delayed, yet he chose to remain silent on the matter.
Shazeal didn’t hold back. “If I was in his place, I would have condemned India,” she said confidently. “Faith is everything. You need to believe that Allah will provide for you. If India doesn’t accept you, there’s always Hollywood as an option.”
Her blunt statements sparked conversations online, with fans and critics weighing in on the Bollywood-Pakistan dynamic and the challenges artists face when navigating cross-border industries.
