KARACHI:
From his jaw-dropping performance in TV serial Udaari to his support for Coke Studio for Deaf, Ahsan Khan has been involved with a number of ventures, striving to improve the lives of the disadvantaged.
The star is now working on a forthcoming project titled Chasm e Num, aimed at challenging the society's pre-conceived notions about visually-impaired individuals.
Talking to The Express Tribune, Ahsan revealed the film is being produced to mark the World Disability Day.
“Most of the people are not even aware that December 3 is World Disability Day. Through this film, I want to highlight the importance of this day and change their perception towards the blind.”
Coke Studio for the Deaf creates a world without barriers
The Udaari actor said Chashme Num is a short romantic film revolving around two-visually impaired individuals.
“I really wanted to do something for the underprivileged, and came up with this idea. This film will change the way you think about these people. It’s a 40-minute love story,” Ahsan said.
"I want to work for humanity as a responsible citizen, which is why I opt for projects that have a social cause attached to them."
The film stars Ahsan Khan, alongside Jasim Khan and Amar Khan. Amanat Ali has sung the film's title song, Naina.
Ayesha Khan's Khuda Mera Bhi Hai will highlight a social taboo
Chashm e Num will be submitted to a number of film festivals, and will also be aired on TV.
