Popular Pakistani actor Danish Taimoor, known for his striking performances in television dramas and his strong fan base of 8.5 million Instagram followers, recently took to social media to celebrate the remarkable viewership of his ongoing serials.
In an Instagram Story shared earlier today, Taimoor posted a screenshot showcasing the latest performance of his two current dramas — Sher and Mann Mast Malang.
According to the data, Sher racked up 25 million views across two episodes, while Mann Mast Malang drew 23.4 million views over three episodes.
Captioning the image with a confident statement, Taimoor wrote, “1st and 2nd. Success doesn’t need a spotlight. It speaks LOUD and CLEAR.”
Though fans continue to shower the star with admiration for his screen presence and charm, criticism is mounting regarding the nature of the scripts he’s been choosing.
Many viewers have expressed discontent over the increasingly provocative and repetitive romantic storylines, particularly in Mann Mast Malang, which has ignited debates on the portrayal of relationships in mainstream entertainment.
Social media reactions have been mixed. Some followers expressed their disapproval, questioning the impact of such content on societal values.
One user commented, “How can this be celebrated when content like this is contributing to toxic ideals? It’s not just about views — it’s about influence.”
Another remarked, “When lyrics like ‘Maar Daala’ become acceptable, it’s time to reflect on what we’re promoting.” Others urged the actor to take more responsibility, especially as a public figure and father.
While Taimoor’s latest dramas dominate digital platforms in terms of viewership, the growing conversation around content sensitivity signals that success in numbers doesn’t always translate into universal approval.
