Pakistani veteran actor Sajid Hassan has said that old dramas were far better than the new ones in terms of content. In a statement, the actor said that producers have now stopped casting senior actors in their serials.

The actor said that senior actors have started to lose their identities by sitting idle at their homes. No relief is being given to artists from the government.  

Hasan's first major drama series was Khalij. He became more recognized from his involvement in the Haseena Moin play Dhoop Kinare in which he played a comedic role. 

He has written many plays which include Kuchwa Aur Khargosh and Gum.

Hasan made his film debut in 2004 with the movie ‘Salakhain’ in which he played the antagonist. He then acted in ‘Pehla Pehla Pyar’. He also had a role in the Angelina Jolie film A Mighty Heart.
