Tauqeer Nasir specifically pointed out that Shah Rukh Khan’s role in the successful movie ‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna’ was a direct replica of his character from the drama ‘Parwaaz’. He emphasized that even specific details, such as portraying an injured leg, were borrowed from his performance in the drama.
According to Nasir, ‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna’ was fundamentally inspired by the storyline of ‘Parwaaz’, penned by acclaimed author Mustansar Hussain Tarar. He asserted that Shah Rukh Khan and especially filmmaker Karan Johar should have acknowledged him for this influence.
The veteran actor also disclosed that he had received offers to work in Bollywood films, including one where Madhuri Dixit was the lead actress. However, due to various reasons, he could not participate in that particular project.
