akistani actor and singer Farhan Saeed has made a candid revelation about a career decision he now looks back on with regret. In a recent interview, the actor shared that he turned down the drama Meem Se Mohabbat, a choice he later realised may not have been the right one.
Opening up about the moment, Farhan said, “Ek role jo mujhe reject nahi karna chahiye tha… Meem Se Mohabbat. Jab main Shirin Farhad kar raha tha, toh mujhe laga ke woh zyada interesting hai.” He added that both projects were offered to him around the same time, forcing him to make a difficult call.
Why Farhan Chose ‘Shirin Farhad’ Over ‘Meem Se Mohabbat’
At the time, Farhan Saeed decided to go ahead with Shirin Farhad, believing it offered him a more compelling creative arc. The actor admitted that when he made the decision, he genuinely felt he was choosing the better script.
However, in hindsight, Farhan acknowledged that Meem Se Mohabbat went on to connect strongly with audiences, making him reflect on what could have been. “Dono saath start ho rahe thay, aur mujhe dono offer hue thay,” he said, highlighting how close the decision really was.
What Happened to ‘Meem Se Mohabbat’ After Farhan’s Exit
After Farhan Saeed stepped away from the project, Meem Se Mohabbat moved forward with a different casting choice including Dananeer Mobeen and Ahad Raza Mir, and eventually gained popularity for its storytelling and performances. The drama developed a loyal viewer base and received appreciation for its emotional depth, making it one of those projects that actors often look back on as a missed opportunity.
