Behroze Sabzwari’s Interview Sparks Nationwide Conversation
Pakistani television and film actor Behroze Sabzwari has found himself at the centre of online discussion after a recent interview in which he commented on marriage, ageing, and the dynamics of family life. His remarks about second marriages, in particular, gained swift traction across social media platforms, prompting public debate.
Speaking on a private TV channel’s entertainment show, the 42-year-old actor offered a mixture of humour, reflection, and cultural commentary. Although known for his lighthearted personality, Sabzwari addressed the topic of second marriages with unusual clarity, a move that resonated with many viewers.
If the First Wife Is Good, There Is No Need for a Second
While responding to a fan’s question, Sabzwari discussed the social perception of multiple marriages in South Asia. He noted that some people believe a man’s standing increases with the number of wives he has. However, he argued the opposite.
According to him, navigating two marriages is not a symbol of power but a challenging responsibility. He explained that even if a man’s first wife is strict, difficult, or simply imperfect—as every human can be—the presence of an established relationship makes a second marriage far more complicated.
Sabzwari continued by saying that if a man is already blessed with a supportive and good first partner, then there is absolutely no need to pursue another marriage. His comments reflected a broader sentiment often discussed in Pakistani society, where the legality of polygamy coexists with cultural and emotional complexities that many families experience.
Early Marriage and Fitness: It Kept Me Grounded and Healthy
During the interview, Sabzwari also spoke about his personal life, especially his early marriage. He humorously noted that he got married at 21 and is now in his early forties, despite many viewers assuming he is older due to his long career and the fact that he is already a grandfather.
He credited his early start in family life for helping him stay focused and physically fit. Having children and grandchildren early, he suggested, gave him a long runway to maintain stability and health while continuing to work in an evolving entertainment industry.
Such reflections come at a time when life expectancy and fitness culture are shifting in Pakistan. According to government health statistics, average life expectancy has risen steadily over the past two decades, and public awareness around physical fitness is growing. In that context, Sabzwari’s comments about the long-term benefits of early marriage struck a relatable chord with many fans.
My Son Is the Best Actor in the Family
When asked to name the best actor in his family, Sabzwari praised several colleagues before turning his attention to celebrated actor Javed Sheikh, calling him matchless. Yet he maintained that the top performer in his own family is his son, Shahroz Sabzwari.
He explained that Shahroz approaches every role with seriousness and dedication, a trait he believes strengthens the younger actor’s craft. Among female actors, Sabzwari expressed affectionate bias, saying that although many actresses today are highly talented, he considers his own wife to be the best actress in his family.
These comments quickly caught the attention of entertainment fans, who appreciated the blend of humour and pride in his responses.
Social Media Reacts to His Candid Views
Within hours of the interview’s broadcast, clips began circulating across platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and X (formerly Twitter). Users widely shared his opinion on second marriages, with many calling his remarks refreshingly honest.
Some appreciated his acknowledgment of the emotional and logistical challenges involved in managing more than one marriage. Others debated the cultural and religious dimensions tied to the subject, using his interview as a starting point for broader discussion.
Regardless of differing views, the online engagement highlighted the strong influence public figures have on social issues in Pakistan. Sabzwari’s straightforward approach—mixing sincerity with gentle humour—proved compelling for audiences at home and abroad.
