Imran Abbas clarifies his recent post was not about him, says ‘no producer owes me any money’

Actor slammed internet speculation linking his remarks to a certain producer affiliated with him

Pakistani actor Imran Abbas has taken to Instagram to address the curiosity stirred by his recent cryptic Facebook post. The renowned actor, known for his stellar performances on screen in Ehraam-e-Junoon and Amanat, recently sparked intrigue among fans and industry insiders alike with a mysterious post on his Facebook account.

In his post, Abbas tackled a prevalent issue plaguing the entertainment industry: non-payment by production houses. Without stating any names, the actor indirectly expressed his frustration regarding producers who fail to settle actors’ dues. “Will the Umrah of those be accepted who haven’t cleared payments of others and are posting pictures from Saudi Arabia?” the actor asked pointedly.

Following the post, fans and industry observers engaged in fervent speculation, with many speculating that Abbas might be referring to a prominent producer currently on an Umrah trip with his family. Coincidentally, this producer had also shared stories from Madina around the same time as Abbas's post, further fueling speculation about their potential involvement.

However, the Jee Ve Sohneya Jee actor has slammed all theories pointing towards any producer associated with him. In an Instagram post, Abbas launched a broadside, “It is truly disheartening to see how some individuals manipulate and distort our words to fabricate scenarios that have no basis in reality.” 

“Do they not have anything more meaningful or constructive to focus on during the month of Ramazan besides spreading negativity and unfounded rumours? Have they considered the grave implications of accusing someone falsely of deeds they never committed?” the actor shared his outrage.

Refuting attempts to misconstrue his innocent post, Abbas declared, “First of all, I also have a life outside of the media industry, and the individual/company I was referring to, in my post, is certainly not connected to this field.” He relayed his gratitude that his industry collaborations have never resulted in any financial troubles.

Setting the record straight, Abbas firmly stated, “I am grateful that no production house or producer in this industry owes me any money. I have always been fortunate to collaborate with outstanding producers, as my payments have always been settled well before the conclusion of any shoot.” 

He went on to defend the producer cropping up in internet theories and explicitly corrected, “It is disgusting that certain sources and pages on social media incorrectly linked my post to someone who is known for being one of the most generous and professional paymasters famous for timely payments (and I can vouch for this fact) and regards me as his family and vice-versa.”
