The character in Daasi pulled me back towards TV: Adeel Husain
Adeel Husain needs no introduction; the talented actor has many hit TV dramas and films to his name during the last few years.
However, since Jackson Heights in 2014, he has been missing in action on the smaller screen, working exclusively in films. With Daasi, he has made a comeback on TV and has been winning new fans in a play that also features Mawra Hocane, Faryal Mehmood, Fazila Kazi, and others.
Spotlight got hold of the talented actor and asked him why he took so much time to return to TV, what compelled him to do the drama and where does he see himself in life, career, and TV.
Any actor would have stuck to TV had he done a project like Jackson Heights. However, you chose to venture new heights after that and only returned to TV after 5 years. Why?
After Jackson Heights, I faced a new horizon. Because it had so many amazing people behind it – with Mehreen Jabbar directing, Vasay Chaudhry writing and Nausheen Dadabhoy as the Director of Photography – it was like a dream come true.
The character progression, the ensemble cast raised my expectations of TV by a big margin. Following Jackson, I was on a high leading into my two films. It wasn’t that I left TV; I was more inclined towards film work post-Ho Mann Jahaan first and Dobara Phir Se.
I was always open to good roles on TV, but I feel they come your way only when the director has time to discuss the character, the arc, and the progression. Get a feel of what one is trying to make.
The importance of TV stood out further as I saw that cinematic innovation has its own challenges, whereas TV is now experimenting little more. I was a bit nervous about doing TV again, but Daasi has been a journey of conquering some of that.
Why did you choose Daasi over the other projects you were offered during that time?
There was something in the story, in the character that attracted me towards the play. The character Aahil had something in common with me – both were finding new centers and navigating a different set of challenges, searching for a direction and that’s why I chose to play it.
Then Mawra came on board and we felt that something charming could come up with our combination. It was an intersection of two emotional spaces with her Sunehri being carefree and my Aahil being a little more serious and weighty. The contrast of moods clicked and I am sure that the audience has had as much fun as we did playing the characters.
Talking of Mawra, she said that she chose the drama just to share the screen with you. How will you rate the experience?
I am very happy to know that Mawra was excited about it. I have always wanted to be part of projects where I meet good hard-working people who understand the dynamics of the work. With Mawra as my co-star, Mohsin Talat as director and so many hardworking actors on the set, I felt great.
Mohsin has been open to the collaborative experience. The hunger in me to return to the TV screen had developed and when that happens, you want to do new and different work, something that challenges you as an actor.
We are living in interesting times where there is both pressure and the chance to do something new at the same time. Also, sharing the screen with so many wonderful actors was exactly how I hoped to return to TV.
Daasi features both an action sequence and a song and dance sequence, how was that experience?
The director has taken an aesthetical license, merging reality and fantasy but it looks good, embedded in the plot. Both the action scene and the little roof moments were a requirement for the story so we went ahead and had a blast. It is a director’s medium and the way Mohsin handled it was commendable.
What’s next on your plate after Daasi?
When I am not acting, I am busy with my laptop; developing a few ideas with friends. Let’s see how it goes because, in order to steer a project a certain way, I will have to balance my acting requirements with this desire to work in the capacity of an executive producer.
I have written a couple of tight scripts that can either be executed as a mini-series or a film. That’s why I am on the lookout for a good team that is as enthusiastic as I am. It’s about time that we put our best foot forward for the world to experience the innovations in Pakistani storytelling.
And till when do you plan to stay an eligible bachelor?
Right now I am in a good place, surrounded by incredible people. My father used to say that one should get married at 32 but at 34, I found myself discovering myself as a person and time passed. I have no regrets.
I am hoping that things will head in the right direction and I would end up making the right decisions, both personally and professionally.

Three Restaurants That Take You Back In Time
Karachi is popular for many things and food is one of them. Since 1947, the largest metropolitan has been the hub for people from all over the country when it comes to food.
However, in this fast-paced era, there are a few restaurants in Karachi that take you back in time, not because of their décor but because of their taste. These restaurants have either opened new branches in other parts of the city or rediscovered some form of delicacy that was going dead with the passage of time.
Visit these places to relive the time when life was simple and food was enjoyed, not just consumed.
Tooso – Since 1976
For a long time, Tooso was the only restaurant in Karachi that offered Fast Food; the ‘Since 1976’ is of importance because, before that, Fast Food was just limited to hotels. After Tooso, many restaurants copied their style and even went a step further to develop their own niche.
After ruling the scene at Bahadurabad, Tooso opened its second branch in Defence in Karachi where they continued to provide quality food to its customers. However recently, they moved their Defence branch near Café Clifton where they have two floors to cater to both the young and the old.
It has been explicitly designed to give you the touch of the 1970s when people used to dine in groups, and not order online to eat alone.
#karachi is blessed with #monsoon #rain and we at Tooso want you not to worry about breakfast. So for the next two…
Posted by Tooso – Since 1976 on Monday, July 29, 2019
The new-look Tooso will transport you back in that time, with the quality of food remaining the same. The Gola Kabab that has remained one of Tooso’s specialty is now considered a must-have, considering not many places in Karachi how to make the perfect Gola Kabab.
Some people visit the place in the morning for a healthy breakfast while the Fast Food items such as Tooso Special Club Sandwich are still in demand, still better than many of their competitors. The Deals are both fulfilling and affordable, a combination still alien to most restaurants in the city, while the ambiance is worth your while.
Kaybees – Serving Since 1979
Seven branches in 40 years, if that’s not an achievement I don’t know what is. The owners of Kaybees started it as a challenge in 1979 and since then have been making inroads in different parts of the city.
They opened their second branch in Defence Phase 2 at the turn of the century and followed it with 5 more, taking the total in 2019 to five branches and two franchises. Their latest branch is situated in the busy area of Badar Commercial in Defence where they stand tall in front of the competition.
On the opposite side is the now sealed Bundu Khan whereas the extremely popular Daily Dubai Restaurant falls on the right. On the other side there is the busiest branch KFC, but with Kaybees in the vicinity, the location belongs to the King.
Desi – Furiously Delicious!!Traditional Daal Handi- Available only at DHA outlet. #kaybees #desi #daal #handi
Posted by Kaybees Pakistan on Thursday, July 11, 2019
The place is not just pleasant to dine in, it maintains the flavor of the original Kaybees; people used to throng to the restaurant way back in the 1980s because of its superior Club Sandwich and signature ice cream, which don’t have a match to this day. The Sizzling Kabab and the Chicken Mughlai Boti is undoubtedly world-famous while their Chicken Shashlik with Rice is without a doubt their finest product. And then there is their proud delicacy, the Kaybees Ice Cream.
Two generations have grown consuming the Kaybees Ice Cream, be it in a cup or a cone, and it continues to get popular amongst the current generation for its unique taste and affordability.
The Bun Story – Back To The Buns!
There was a time when people used to love Buns in Karachi; many bakeries in the old part of Karachi were famous for their normal and Hot Cross Buns.
However, with the passage of time, these bakeries were limited to selling buns like hot cakes only ahead of religious festivals such as Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. However, one restaurant that took the challenge and made a business out of buns is The Bun Story, and it is doing quite well since opening its first branch at Khayaban-e-Badar, Karachi.
Not just it bakes bun on the spot and fills them with whatever you desire, the restaurant follows the theme of Fairy Tales, making it a must-visit place with Kids.

As for the menu, you can start with Starters that come with many options, provided you order the platter. Then there is a variety of things that you can choose from such as Pasta, Steaks, Waffles, Salads, and Soups to name a few. And finally, there is the Stuffed Buns section on the menu that will give your brain so much choice that you will forget you are in a restaurant but in a dream.
There is the traditional Muska Bun, followed by a Nutella Bun, which will give your sweet taste buds a run for the money. However, if you want to eat Buns for dinner, you can choose from different stuffings such as Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Fajita and Chicken Bar B Q; all these buns will be baked after your order is taken and the stuffing is ‘stuffed’ into it.
You may not have had such kind of a Bun anywhere in the country, so don’t be surprised when a custom-baked Bun lands on your plate. Visit the place and have fun dining with your favorite characters present there, in spirit and in the menu. Bon appetite!
