Fahad Sheikh, a name that has now become synonymous with dedication and perseverance in the Pakistani entertainment industry, has slowly risen to stardom through hard work and resilience. Starting his career with a popular road show in Pakistan, Fahad transitioned into acting, where he faced his fair share of challenges.
Despite the hurdles, he has carved a niche for himself, becoming a household name with his standout performances. His recent drama “Hasrat” was a mega hit, and his character became the talk of the town.
Throughout his journey, Fahad has been candid about the struggles he faced while trying to establish himself. He openly admits that he has knocked on many doors in the industry, tirelessly searching for work. His big break came through the controversial drama “Jalan”, where, despite the drama’s contentious storyline, Fahad’s performance and character were appreciated. This role marked a turning point in his career, leading to consistent work and a growing fan base.
However, success did not come without its share of heartache. Recently, while appearing on the popular show “Mazaq Raat”, Fahad opened up about one of the most painful rejections he faced after his rise to fame. He shared that after “Jalan”, he was receiving a flood of calls for new projects.
Excited about the opportunities, he was invited to a production house for a meeting. With high hopes and dressed to impress, Fahad arrived at the office, only to be met with immediate rejection. As soon as he walked through the door, the director gave him a dismissive look and turned him away.
Fahad described this moment as devastating, but rather than giving up, he used it as fuel to push himself harder.
