Pakistan mourns the loss of a talented actor, Shaukat Zaidi, who made significant contributions to both entertainment and journalism. Renowned for excelling in his fields despite challenging circumstances, Shaukat Zaidi, who also spent a decade writing theatre plays, passed away at the age of 72.
Shaukat Zaidi, who was fighting kidney issues, died on a sad Saturday at a Lahore hospital after succumbing to his illness.
After the death of actor Khalid Butt, the nation reflects on the passing of another legend, adding to the losses of the beginning of the year.
Shaukat Zaidi’s career spanned from 1970 to 1998, and he covered some of Pakistan’s most difficult periods. He became popular by playing multiple characters in “Hum Sub Umeed Se Hain“.
In light of this somber moment in Pakistan’s entertainment industry, we pray that Allah will grant peace to the departed soul and comfort to his family at this difficult time.
