Renowned Pakistani actor Hamza Ali Abbasi has recently responded to widespread confusion surrounding his earlier statement about quitting showbiz. The actor, who had previously indicated a departure from the entertainment industry, clarified that his words had been misunderstood.
In a new interview, Hamza explained that while he had indeed stepped back from mainstream acting projects for some time, he never intended to completely leave the industry. He emphasized that his decision was more about being selective with his work rather than a total exit.
“I didn’t say I’m quitting forever. I just said I want to do meaningful projects,” Hamza said. He added that his earlier statement was deeply personal and spiritual in nature, reflecting a shift in his priorities rather than a rejection of acting as a profession.
The actor’s clarification comes after several media outlets and fans interpreted his previous announcement as a final farewell to showbiz. His return in notable projects like The Legend of Maula Jatt and the drama Jaan-e-Jahan also reignited discussions about his status in the industry.
Hamza reaffirmed that he will continue to work in the entertainment sector, particularly in projects that align with his values and beliefs.
Fans have welcomed his clarification, expressing excitement to see him continue contributing to Pakistani television and cinema.
