yea ur right....maybe that's why i feel weird watching him play this role compared to pasha. I think his acting as Veena is ok. He needs to make it more powerful.important b/c it doesn't feel like he is the main character for now. He needs to be like a hijra (is that what they call ppl like him right?) not TRY to act only... but i know fahad overall is a good actor seen his other dramas.....and so is beenish, her sister-role, shagufta, heena dilpizar (something like that) and Veena's funny friends!
I think, the whole point is that he as 'Veena' (the character in the play) itself is trying to act like a hijra becuase he doesn't feel like one, i-e the flashbacks etc he keeps having and his infatuation (or whatever you might want to call it with beenish chohan) shows how he is actually uncomfortable with leading the life of a hijra. It doesn't come naturally to him because he doesn't seem to be comfortable with it, hence why 'Veena' has to try to act like a hijra- and you can see the effort going into that.
I think he's acting superbly.
