If I wasn't an actress I would have been a thief: Faryal Mahmood
The actress remarked 'Since I am good at acting, I can sell and deceive anyone'.


Karachi; Popular Pakistani actress Faryal Mahmood has made a striking statement, suggesting that if she hadn't pursued a career in showbiz, she might have ended up as a dancer or even a thief.
During a recent appearance on a private TV program, Faryal revealed that two of her upcoming films are set to release soon, first internationally and then in Pakistan, marking her transition to international cinema.
Faryal Mahmood's journey into showbiz was influenced by her family's ties to the entertainment industry.
She shared that her mother was an actress, and her maternal grandfather was a music director.
Recalling her school days, Faryal disclosed that she was expelled from multiple schools before the 12th grade due to her involvement in fights.
She humorously explained, "I was expelled from school because I used to fight with people. In one school, I broke a girl's ribs."
During the program, the host asked her about a statement she had made previously, where she claimed that if she hadn't become an actress, she might have become a thief.
Faryal replied with a laugh, "If I weren't an actress, I might have been a dancer or even a thief. I believe I could be a formidable thief because I'm good at acting, so I could deceive anyone."
