Anoushey and Yasir Argue Over Esra Bilgic Working in Pakistan [Video]

The debate continues.

The debate over foreign actors working for Pakistani brands is getting way too long. While some actors like Yasir Hussain are against them signing deals with Pakistani brands, others like Anoushey Ashraf are of the view that we should welcome them as we have in the past with Bollywood celebrities.

In a recent live session, the two actors shared their opinions and talked about the whole situation in detail.

“Two sides to a story? Even though I’m still pro about International artists working here just like all other industries sell international products here, however, I clearly see his point on respect and actively making our industry better,” Anoushey wrote on her Instagram.

Yasir Hussain Explains Why He is Against It

Here’s what he said:

“She should come here for one year and work hard like our actresses and then she deserves a brand. She must collaborate with us, she is even shooting in Turkey. If she had came to Pakistan and shot the ad in Peshawar or in Karachi, I would understand. But now our people have no work. What did we get? Even they didn’t get business from it.”

Anoushey Has Her Own Opinion

Anoushey disagreed with him as she thinks Bollywood actors have also worked with Pakistani brands and fashion designers.

“I don’t think so that one or two campaigns can jeopardize our career or shut down studios. Kareena Kapoor has also worked for Faraz Manan.”

Yasir could not understand her point and said that he is surprised to hear this from her. In response, the Pakistan Idol host said,

“Because I was happy when I watched the series and I thought she should come and this is how brands are earning and selling their product.”

  1. I listen to the whole conversation very clearly and attentively ..

    Yasir is saying right for Pakistan and for Pakistani actar and actress and media industry and we’ll be is trying to save the future and trying to mature the industry personals as well

    He really tried to comprehend the word collaboration which people in media industry normally dont understand because of illiteracy.

    Pakistani government should play active role to make there own stars. And Pakistani any brand should focus on our own Pakistani media industry rather taking actors from outside countries.
