Emmad Irfani is a good-looking and accomplished Pakistani television and film actor, known for his convincing performances in hit Pakistani dramas. He began his career as one of the top fashion models in the early 2000s and has been serving the entertainment industry for more than 25 years. His notable dramas include Tawan, Ranjish Hi Sahi, Mariam Parrera, Saaya-e-Deewar Bhi Nahi, Maah-e-Tamam, Titli, Cheekh, Kuch Na Kaho, Aik Thi Misaal, Jaan-e-Jahan, and Jalan. Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum was his recent blockbuster, followed by ARY Digital’s ongoing drama Kafeel.
Recently, Emmad Irfani gave an interview to Rabia Mughni for Fuchsia Magazine’s show Pyar, Zindagi Aur Karachi Season 2. During the interview, he talked about what makes Jami’s character feel so real and the trait he shares with Jami.
Talking about it, Emmad Irfani said, “Jami has antics and traits that are really hateful. I actually felt disgusted while reading them. But as an actor, you have to show those emotions through yourself and put in the effort to make it real. In the process, you discover your own emotions and even surprise yourself. The reviews are saying that Jami feels convincingly real, which is really pleasing—definitely a pat on my back. Jami is quite different from me. While acting, you have to forget yourself and put all your energy and dedication into the character you are playing because the writer creates it with his hard work and passion. Jami’s anger management and anger issues are the things I can relate to—anger is often a by-product of feeling helpless. I’ve had anger issues and road rage in the past, but I’ve worked on them. At the end of the day, we make ourselves angry, not others; we’re responsible for our own emotions.”
