Karachi( The COW News Digital)Pakistani actress Komal Aziz has opened up about her surprising decision to leave the showbiz industry despite being at the peak of her career. In an exclusive interview with a private TV channel, she revealed that her departure was driven not by financial concerns but by the increasingly challenging environment within the industry.
Komal emphasized that she never faced financial difficulties in showbiz and even earns more from her business ventures than she did as an actress. “Money was never the issue,” she said. “The main reason I left was the atmosphere in the industry, which has become unbearable over time.”
The actress explained that showbiz is not always a welcoming environment for educated individuals. Long working hours, constant political maneuvering, lack of proper meal arrangements, and insufficient hygiene standards were among the factors that contributed to her decision. “The environment was not conducive for someone like me, who values professionalism and structure,” she added.
Komal also highlighted the social aspect of the industry, stating that due to the competitive and politically charged environment, she never formed close friendships within showbiz. She prefers to focus on her thriving business, which she finds both rewarding and better suited to her lifestyle. “Fame is not everything,” she remarked.
Despite leaving acting, Komal Aziz expressed no regrets about her decision. She appreciates the freedom and control her business provides and enjoys working in a space that aligns with her values and personal priorities. “I am fully committed to my business, and the environment suits me perfectly. I have no regrets at all,” she said candidly.
Her revelations shed light on the often-overlooked challenges faced by actors in Pakistan’s entertainment industry. The story also raises broader questions about work culture, professional ethics, and personal satisfaction in high-pressure environments.
Komal’s candid reflections resonate with many who prioritize personal well-being over fame and serve as an example of making life choices aligned with one’s values rather than societal expectations.
