Not easy being an actor: Ayeza Khan shares video of accident on set

Star shed light on the challenges faced by actors in the entertainment industry

Ayeza Khan, the acclaimed Pakistani star, recently took to social media to share a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her work on set, shedding light on the challenges faced by actors in the entertainment industry. In a candid Instagram post, Ayeza offered a view into the less visible aspects of an actor's life, showcasing the unpredictability and risks that often accompany their performances. She posted a brief video capturing a precarious moment on set where she found herself amidst unexpected flames during a scene.

As the director signalled the commencement of the shot with the command "Action!", Ayeza skillfully executed her part, flinging a large piece of flaming cloth across the set. However, the fiery act resulted in sparks being left behind on the floor. In an unforeseen turn, the bare-footed actor accidentally stepped on the remnants of the flames, eliciting a reaction as she carefully tiptoed away.

Taking to her Instagram, Ayeza reflected on the challenges actors encounter while delivering performances, highlighting the moments that remain concealed from the onscreen audience. She acknowledged the uncertainties that unfold during filming, expressing gratitude for divine protection amid such unforeseen circumstances.

"It’s not easy being an actor," she remarked, underscoring the intensity of the profession where performers often immerse themselves fully in the moment, irrespective of unexpected challenges. "When the director says ‘Action,’ we forget what’s going to happen next and just give our best performance. Sometimes unexpected things happen on set that the onscreen audience doesn’t get to see. But Allah is protecting us, and I can’t thank Allah enough for having His protection over me every single day." 

She credited the protective guidance of Allah for safeguarding her in such instances and expressed heartfelt appreciation for the unwavering support and love from fans. "And, of course, the appreciation we receive for our performance from you guys is also unparalleled," she continued. "Thank you, everyone, for always supporting and loving us (actors) unconditionally. This is exactly what makes us push harder in our careers and go forward to give the best we possibly can."
