Renowned Pakistani actor Fahad Mustafa has made history by receiving two distinguished awards from the British Parliament, marking a significant milestone in his career.

Mustafa is the first Pakistani actor to be honoured by both Houses of Parliament.

At a ceremony organised by Multicultural Britain, Mustafa was presented with the Diversity and Cultural Impact Award in the House of Commons by British MP Naz Shah. Additionally, he received the Global Cultural Unity Award in the House of Lords from British Minister Lord Wajid Khan.

The actor took to his Instagram to share his recent achievement, expressing gratitude and pride after receiving two prestigious accolades at the House of Commons and House of Lords in the UK.

He wrote, "Our Stories Really Matter! This recognition is not just mine—it belongs to every artist, every dreamer, and every storyteller in Pakistan who dares to dream big and cross boundaries. It is a testament to the power of our culture, our stories, and the unyielding spirit of unity that makes us shine on the global stage."

Fahad Mustafa’s recognition follows closely after Pakistani actress Mahira Khan was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award in the British Parliament last month.

Fahad, known for his remarkable career in Urdu films and television, is widely admired for his work, including his highly successful serial Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum, which set new viewership records in Pakistan. Despite fans clamouring for a sequel to the hit drama, Mustafa has confirmed that there are no plans for a follow-up.
