I kept wondering when she'd cry, Sachal Afzal's hilarious Maya Ali confession
Pakistani actor Sachal Afzal has shared a candid and humorous behind the scenes story about working alongside Maya Ali, praising her professionalism while joking about her emotional approach to scenes in their ongoing drama serial ‘Ek Muhabbat Aur’.
During a recent television interview, Sachal reflected on his experience of sharing the screen with Maya, describing her as a dedicated actress who always prioritizes rehearsals and perfecting every scene before the cameras start rolling.
"Maya's focus is always on rehearsing the lines first and making sure the scene is performed in the best possible way. She handles everything very professionally, and working with her was a wonderful experience," he said.
The actor then added a lighthearted observation that left everyone smiling.
"I used to feel that she would become emotional in almost every scene. Even when there wasn't a crying scene, I'd keep thinking, 'At which line is she going to start crying?' Every actor has their own process of getting into character, and that was hers," he said jokingly.
Sachal's remarks were made in a humorous context, appreciating Maya's deep emotional investment in her performances rather than criticizing it.
The duo currently stars together in ‘Ek Muhabbat Aur’, where Maya Ali essays the role of Assistant Commissioner Khushbakht Naaz, while Sachal Afzal plays Haseeb, Khushbakht's cousin. The drama has been receiving praise from viewers for its emotionally charged storyline and compelling performances, with the chemistry between the cast emerging as one of the highlights of the serial.
