“The telefilm is about three brothers, three very different characters living in the same house,” Fakhr-e-Alam speaks. “I’m playing one of the brothers Immy, while Aijaz Aslam and Faysal Qurashi are playing the other brothers.”
A picture is making waves where he’s seen wearing makeup and pink shalwar kameez, he reiterates that it’s a “woman’s getup, who is the mother of the three brothers. So I’m also playing the mother – I have two roles.”

“Immy’s a wannabe politician but is a total loser. He has a party, which has four people in it; a chairman, a co-chairman, a president and a general secretary and all four of them are Immy himself,” he adds.
The telefilm is written and directed by Faisal Mehmood Khan, the script and cast caught Fakhr-e-Alam’s attention and quickly signed the telefilm.
“I was offered a lot of acting assignments for many years and I haven’t been able to commit to anything, but this script was really funny and I get to star with two of my really good friends and heavyweights in the acting industry.”
Explaining his comeback to the screen after “almost a decade”, the singer says it’s all part of a strategy.
“I’m becoming active again because I’ll be pushing my technology platforms EzDaam and EzVdo. It’s a strategy to bring myself back into the market and push my technology platforms at the same time, works perfectly in-sync together.”
