The actor further remarked that if industry leaders fail to fulfill this responsibility, they will ultimately be held accountable in this regard.
His comments have sparked conversation about fair compensation and long-term financial security for technicians and other behind-the-scenes professionals in Pakistan's entertainment industry.
