It turns out that no one's born with Fawad Khan's killer looks or Ayesha Omar's head-turning style -- not even Fawad and Ayesha themselves.

Before reaching the height of stardom, many Pakistani actors tried their hand at modelling, so we dug through the archives and found photos that prove how far these celebrities have really come.

1. Fawad Khan

Humsafar's Fawad Khan, and model/actor Iman Ali camouflaged themselves with matching outfits, and an equally matching backdrop for a magazine shoot.

Hollywood | 7 years ago | Reply These actors have not won any Oscar or Nobel Prize for what you call them BIG stars.Even many actors in Bollywood except for few are not BIG stars either.
Haji Atiya | 7 years ago | Reply @Ali: The only real "how far they have come" is that some of them have de facto defected to India. But I agree with you, most of them look almost the same apart from some cosmetic surgery here and there.
