LAHORE: Popular actor Ali Ansari recently shared his views on love, relationships, and social taboos during a YouTube interview. His statements quickly went viral, generating mixed reactions on social media.
During the interview, he addressed whether a man can love two women at the same time. Ali Ansari clarified that such discussions should not focus only on men. He said, “I believe not just a man, but a woman can also fall in love with more than one person at the same time.”
The actor added that these kinds of narratives are rarely shown on television. He explained that most stories focus on men due to fear of public backlash. “We do not show these stories because people react strongly. Most of the time, the story is told only from the man’s point of view,” Ali said.
Ali Ansari also discussed audience feedback on his current drama Muamma. He noted that some viewers feel uncomfortable watching the show with their families. He added jokingly, “But I know people are still secretly watching it.”
The actor’s comments sparked a wide range of reactions online. Some viewers expressed shock, while others defended his perspective. One social media user wrote, “Why are people losing their minds? He didn’t say anyone should act on it, he just said it’s possible.” Others agreed, saying, “Yes, it’s true,” while some disagreed, arguing, “That’s not love. Call it what it is: infatuation or attraction.”
On the personal front, Ali Ansari is married to actress Saboor Aly. The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Serena Ali, earlier this year.
In his current drama Muamma, Ali Ansari stars alongside Saba Qamar, who plays Jahan Ara, also known as Gigi. The story revolves around Jahan Ara, a woman who rents part of her house to married couples.
