Pakistani actors Sanam Saeed and Faizan Sheikh rally behind newcomer Shahvir Kadwani, condemning online trolls for their harsh criticism of his performance in Mohabbat.
Emerging actor Shahvir Kadwani, currently captivating audiences in the drama serial Mohabbat on Geo Entertainment, has recently become the target of intense online trolling. Viewers are criticizing his performance as Zarrar, an angry university student, labeling him a “light version” of established stars like Feroze Khan or Danish Taimoor, and dismissing him as a “nepo kid” due to his family connections in the industry. This wave of negativity has prompted a strong defense from prominent figures in Pakistani showbiz.
Shahvir Kadwani officially began his acting journey with the drama series Sunn Mere Dil, which premiered in October 2024. His emotional portrayal, particularly alongside veteran actor Mohammad Ahmed, garnered initial appreciation. While he has aspirations to venture into production, his current focus remains on developing his acting career. Fans can follow his journey and updates on his official Instagram account, Shahvir Kadwani.
In response to the relentless online criticism, acclaimed actors Sanam Saeed and Faizan Sheikh have spoken out, condemning the prevalent culture of online trolling. Faizan Sheikh posted a poignant message, stating, “Pesh-e-khidmat hai humara naya national sport: trolling! Newcomers, seasoned actors, national heroes, clothes, appearances—bas troll kardo! Trolling isn’t clever banter; it’s cruelty disguised as humor. Behind every handle is a real person, and constant online toxicity takes a very real toll on mental health.” His remarks highlight the severe impact of online abuse on mental well-being. Sanam Saeed echoed this sentiment on her official Instagram, urging compassion: “There you go again, bashing someone over a drama role! It’s a drama, for God’s sake—but his feelings are real. He’s a young actor; give him a break. So what if he’s a nepo kid? Insaan toh hai na? Dil toh hai na? Aap sab ki tarah uski bhi insecurities aur challenges honghi. You think fame, money, or privilege make it okay to pick on someone like this? Shame on you—especially those of you who are parents to young adults!” Their outspoken support underscores the human element often forgotten in online discourse.
The defense of Shahvir Kadwani extends beyond Sanam Saeed and Faizan Sheikh. Prominent personalities like Mehwish Hayat, Syed Jibran, and Bushra Ansari have also voiced their support, advocating for kindness and understanding towards emerging talent. This collective stand by industry veterans calls into question the ethics of online criticism and the responsibility of viewers. Will this unified plea from the industry help curb the rampant online negativity, or does the culture of trolling continue unabated?
