Urfi Javed has praised Pakistani actor Sheheryar Munawar, recalling a brief meeting in Dubai that left a lasting impression. The Indian television personality recently shared her admiration for his performance in ARY Digital’s ongoing drama Dar-e-Nijaat. She posted a fan edit from the latest episode and highlighted his character, Abu Bakar. “Abu Bakar! The man you are,” she wrote while celebrating the actor’s performance.
Urfi later shared a reel revealing that she had met Munawar several years ago in Dubai. Both attended the Filmfare Awards Middle East and stayed at the same hotel. She recalled approaching him for a photograph when she was not particularly popular. However, the actor took time to speak with her and made the encounter memorable.
