Pakistani actress Javeria Saud has praised veteran performers Afzal Khan, widely known as Rambo, Sahiba Rambo and Fazal Hussain for their work in the newly released drama Mitti De Baway.
The actress highlighted the trio’s performances through her Instagram Stories, drawing attention to the different side of their acting abilities being displayed in the drama.
Javeria’s comments come as Mitti De Baway begins attracting attention for its period setting, Punjabi cultural elements and ensemble cast, which includes Wahaj Ali and Mahira Khan in the central roles. The drama premiered on Green TV on September 23, 2026.
Javeria Saud Praises Their Acting Range
Sharing images of Rambo, Sahiba and Fazal Hussain in character, Javeria said talented performers can make a strong impression when they receive suitable roles and meaningful opportunities.
She praised the three actors for moving beyond the kind of screen personas audiences may commonly associate with them and said their performances had made the entertainment community proud.
Her remarks particularly highlight Rambo and Sahiba, whose roles in the drama allow them to explore a more traditional and culturally rooted side of their screen presence.
The veteran couple appear as characters connected to the folk traditions at the heart of the story. Their scenes include traditional singing and musical performances, with the characters participating in celebrations and playing the dhol.
Rambo and Sahiba Take on Traditional Roles
Afzal Khan and Sahiba have been familiar faces in Pakistani entertainment for decades, making their appearance in Mitti De Baway notable for viewers familiar with their earlier work.
Instead of relying primarily on their established celebrity identities, the actors have adopted characters closely connected with the cultural environment portrayed in the drama.
Their roles are linked to the folk traditions featured throughout the story, giving the pair an opportunity to present a different dimension of their performances.
The cultural setting is also an important part of Mitti De Baway. The drama explores Punjabi heritage through folk songs, traditional performances and elements of regional storytelling.
Fazal Hussain Adds to the Family Story
Fazal Hussain is also part of the storyline involving Rambo and Sahiba’s characters.
He portrays the younger version of Baala, their son, during a particular period of the story. His role connects the younger generation with the characters played by the veteran performers.
Javeria’s praise therefore covers performances from different generations of Pakistani actors, with the three performers contributing to the drama’s family and cultural narrative.
Mahira Khan and Wahaj Ali Lead the Drama
Mitti De Baway features Mahira Khan and Wahaj Ali as its central characters, Bilqees Bano and Iqbal Channan, also known as Baala.
The story is set against the backdrop of Punjab and follows a complicated relationship shaped by love, family honour, old rivalries and changing circumstances.
The drama has been written by Faiza Iftikhar, directed by Syed Wajahat Hussain and produced by Tehreem Chaudhary. It airs on Green TV on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8pm.
The show’s opening episodes have already drawn attention to its traditional setting and its use of Punjabi folk culture. Its storyline moves between different periods, allowing the characters’ relationships and conflicts to develop across time.
Sehar Khan Also Praises Wahaj Ali
Javeria Saud is not the only Pakistani celebrity to comment positively on the drama’s performances.
Actress Sehar Khan recently praised Wahaj Ali for his transformation for Mitti De Baway, adding to the attention surrounding the cast.
Wahaj’s character requires a noticeably different appearance and presentation, while Mahira Khan’s involvement has also generated interest among drama audiences.
With the series only recently beginning its television run, performances from both its established stars and supporting cast members are already becoming a topic of discussion among viewers and fellow artists.
Javeria Saud’s latest comments further spotlight Rambo, Sahiba and Fazal Hussain, particularly for taking on roles that give audiences an opportunity to see another aspect of their acting abilities.
