Pakistani starlet Alizeh Shah has recently opened up about co-star Yasir Nawaz's statement about working with her in a drama serial. Yasir had shared that one co-star he had difficulty working with was Alizeh in Mera Dil Mera Dushman. So much so, that it had become a nuisance to complete the shooting of the show.

Now, in a recent interview with Ali Safina, the Ehd-e-Wafa star has shared her stance on the matter.

"I think everyone is different. Everyone connects to a person differently. For instance, just like our families, we don't get along with everyone. We might have a difference of opinion from our father or mother," she shared, adding, "Similarly, our drama sets are like a family. We don't always get along. One should expect the same behaviour same as they behave towards them. If you will misbehave with me, I will not stay quiet. I will respond back."

Earlier, at an appearance on Time Out with Ahsan Khan, morning show host Nida Yasir and the director shared details of their experience in the entertainment industry.

However, one of Yasir's statements regarding acting with Alizeh Shah has irked many. In the aforementioned interview, Yasir has spoken about his reluctance to take on acting again, saying the experience was not a pleasant one for him. “Acting disturbed me a little. There were a lot of reasons. I just didn’t enjoy it. I always regretted getting into acting, it was that bad."

Elaborating further, Nida spoke about the issues Yasir has faced with co-stars in the past. “As an actor, Yasir had some difficulty working with Alizeh Shah. There wasn’t enough chemistry, even though Yasir gets along well with everyone. But, as a director, no one has ever bothered him,” she shared. She later added, “You have to be careful who you work with. You need to look into who you are going to be cast with.”

Yasir then added, "When an actor is playing a character, they must keep their private life separate from the role. I was even asked by the creators to increase the number of episodes since it was performing well but I turned him down, saying that a reduction in the number of episodes was acceptable but not an increase."
