The YouTuber followed with a tirade about how he vows to change the entertainment industry with not just his own web series, but a ‘Fast & Furious’ inspired venture:
Shahveer’s drama-related tweet reached all social platforms, with online publications sharing it to beg a debate with their followers:

Veteran Imran Ashraf commented underneath ‘Diva Magazine Pakistan’s’ Instagram post, tagging Shahveer’s Instagram account and honestly giving him the best shut up call ever.
Just when you think you couldn’t admire, love and respect Imran anymore, well…the actor began with a beautifully savage “mein sadqay jaoon” before diving in D. E. E. P. He said Shahveer was mistaken, and that our drama industry was one of the finest in the world, before ending his statement with “baishak aap aik talented insaan hain, par nahi…inti bari baat ziadi hai.”
YOU KING!
Shahveer’s response was mediocre at best because well, let’s be honest he did receive quite the shut-up call:
SORRY SHAHVEER.
