Noor Bukhari thinks Humayun Saeed should leave romantic hero roles, do ‘mature’ roles now

The Nadeem Baig directorial London Nahi Jaunga has been touted as a huge success given the response it's getting at the cinemas not just in Pakistan but also worldwide. However, former actor Noor Bukhari, wasn’t too fond of the romantic comedy’s weak” storyline when she saw the film in the UK recently. She was particularly unhappy with Humayun Saeed’s character, Jameel, as a romantic hero. 

Posting short clips from her time in the cinema, Bukhari praised Kubra Khan’s acting and Baig’s direction and cinematography in the film. However, she also added that she felt that the love story did not feel right with Saeed essaying a hero at his age.

"Very well shot Nadeem Baig. The cinematography is excellent, the actors are brilliant but sorry, a love story?” wrote the Ishq Positive actor. “It is not going with the age of Humayun Saeed as no love happens in this age. The story is too weak.” Bukhari further suggested Saeed to now take up some “mature” and age-appropriate roles. “Now do mature roles. These are just difficult to digest”

When her statement got viral online, she posted a screenshot of a publication, and clarified her stance stating that Saeed is her favourite actor. “Humayun Saeed is my favourite and he looked superb but I feel he can do much more than just being a romantic hero,” she wrote.London Nahi Jaunga, which also stars Mehwish Hayat and Vasay Chaudhry in pivotal roles, is currently playing in cinemas across the world.
