Saba Qamar & Imran Abbas on Why Urdu is Dying in Films | Sunday Special
Saba Qamar and Imran Abbas sit down with Adeel Hashmi at Jashn-e-Rekhta Dubai for an honest conversation about Urdu and what it means to actors today. They talk about how they learned the craft, the sanctity of words on screen, and why pronunciation still matters when the camera rolls.
The chat goes deeper into the slow loss of linguistic identity across South Asia and why so many young actors no longer connect with the language. Imran shares how a strong command of Urdu opened doors for him in both India and Pakistan, while Saba reflects on the beauty of incompleteness in storytelling and performance.
