Whether on the stage or on the screen, Moin Akhtar is one of the most ingenious performers to entertain and amuse his audience/viewers. His sharp wit and humor keep the audience spellbound. He is an inspiration for the generations to come and is one of the few that stand out so distinguishably. He has parodied in several languages, including English, Bengali, Sindhi, Punjabi, Memon, Pushto, Gujarati and others, while in the Urdu-speaking world, he is beloved for providing great humor for people of all ages, and with an etiquette that remains unmatched. He, therefore, is admired and acclaimed not only in Pakistan but in the other side of border, India, too. It would not be wrong to say that his ardent fans are spread all around the globe.
Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs,
dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with
the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject
to the same diseases, heal'd by the same means,
warm'd and cool'd by the same winter and summer
as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed?
If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us,
do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?
If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that.
If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility?
Revenge. If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his
sufferance be by Christian example? Why, revenge.
The villainy you teach me, I will execute,
and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.
