“Do you miss Moin Akhter?” asked Bilal.

“Moin had me captivated like a bail,” said Maqsood, “I wrote for him for 25 years.”

“Even today if I am writing something like Loose Talk, I involuntarily write Moin’s name after mine and then cut it when reality hits,” the Angan Terha actor said.

Maqsood sahab also spoke of Moin’s legendary stature and how people like him never go away even after their demise.

“They say the dead have left, where have they gone when they are right here. They are in every house in everyone’s hearts,” Maqsood sahab said with teary eyes.
