Pakistani actor Faisal Qureshi has openly supported actress Hania Aamir’s growing popularity and commercial value, saying there is nothing wrong with the actress demanding a higher fee for brand collaborations. During a recent podcast appearance, Faisal was asked about Hania’s increasing influence in Pakistan’s entertainment industry and her growing presence in major advertising campaigns. In response, the veteran actor praised the actress and acknowledged that she has established herself as one of the country’s most recognisable stars. Faisal pointed out that Hania’s face can currently be seen across the country on billboards, signboards and various advertising campaigns. According to him, the fact that major companies continue to choose Hania to represent their products is a clear indication of her strong market position and popularity. Calling her a star, Faisal said that Hania has reached a stage in her career where leading brands are interested in associating their names with her. He suggested that her widespread visibility is not simply the result of her television and film projects but also reflects the strong connection she has built with audiences. The actor further explained that Hania is aware of her current position in the entertainment industry. With her popularity continuing to rise, brands are also aware of her market value and the attention she can bring to their campaigns. Faisal also defended Hania against criticism over reports that she charges a higher fee for brand endorsements. He argued that an artist’s fee naturally increases when their demand and commercial appeal grow. According to Faisal, there is no reason for an artist to feel guilty about asking for a higher payment when their popularity has increased significantly. He suggested that fees are often determined by an artist’s demand in the market, their ability to attract audiences and the value they bring to a commercial campaign. His comments come at a time when Hania Aamir has become one of the most prominent young faces in Pakistan’s entertainment and advertising industries. The actress has developed a substantial fan following through her television projects and social media presence, while her public image has also made her a sought-after choice for major brands. Faisal’s remarks highlight the changing dynamics of Pakistan’s entertainment industry, where an actor’s commercial value is increasingly influenced by their visibility, digital following and overall popularity. By supporting Hania’s decision to charge according to her market value, Faisal emphasised that successful artists should be able to benefit from the demand they have created. His comments also suggest that higher fees can be viewed as a natural outcome of an artist reaching a stronger position within the industry rather than as a matter of controversy.
