Bs ticket khareedny se pehle dosti ka discount milna chahiye! ❤️👏
Ansaar Mehr se ta’alluq sirf dosti ka nahi, NAPA ke un dinon ki yaadon ka bhi hai jab hum adakari seekh rahe the,
Farq bas itna hai ke hum shayad abhi tak kirdar samajhne mein lage hain aur sahb theatre krne, direction krne aur filmms/movies karne tak pohanch gaye hain.
Uper se FBR ki naukri aur law ki taleem bhi,
Ab aglay projects bhi khufiya hain, jaise doston se nahi, NAB se bacha kar rakhne hon!
Berhaal, dil se kahun to Ansaar ki mehnat, Fun se Mohabbat aur apne khwabon ke liye mustaqil mizaji qabil-e-qadr hai. Is mein ek khuloos hai jo sirf stage par nahi, insaan ke taur par bhi nazar aata hai.
Dua hai ke yeh dost bohat aagay jaye, bas itna nahi ke agli mulaqat ke liye bhi uske manager se waqt lena paray! ❤️🙏
انصار مہر سے تعلق صرف دوستی کا نہیں، NAPA کے اُن دنوں کی یادوں کا بھی ہے جب ہم اداکاری سیکھ رہے تھے۔ فرق بس اتنا ہے کہ ہم شاید ابھی تک کردار سمجھنے میں لگے ہیں اور صاحب تھیٹر کرنے، ڈائریکٹ کرنے اور فلمیں کرنے تک پہنچ گئے ہیں۔ اوپر سے ایف بی آر کی نوکری اور قانون کی تعلیم بھی,
اب اگلے منصوبے بھی خفیہ ہیں، جیسے دوستوں سے نہیں، نیب سے بچا کر رکھنے ہوں!
البتہ دل سے کہوں تو انصار کی محنت، فن سے وابستگی اور اپنے خوابوں کے لیے مستقل مزاجی قابلِ قدر ہے۔
اس میں ایک خلوص ہے جو صرف اسٹیج پر نہیں، انسان کے طور پر بھی نظر آتا ہے۔
دعا ہے کہ یہ دوست بہت آگے جائے، بس اتنا نہیں کہ اگلی ملاقات کے لیے بھی اس کے منیجر سے وقت لینا پڑے۔ ❤️🙏
