My only observation of Humayun Saeed in The Crown is that whenever Pakistani actresses have kissed onscreen they’ve been crucified for it but when a Pakistani man does it there are absolute *crickets*. The hypocrisy of our people is nauseating.

Earlier, talking to Variety about his character, Humayun Saeed said, “Dr. Hasnat Khan and Princess Diana were total opposites. He was a very ordinary man in every way and I feel this is what attracted Princess Diana to him. His nature and simplicity made him special to Princess Diana.”
“I haven’t played a real-life character on-screen and to play the role of Dr. Hasnat Khan who everyone knows due to Princess Diana was a huge responsibility,” Humayun added.
“I am confident audiences will love the simplicity of the relationship and how it is portrayed on-screen,” he added,
Elizabeth Debicki, who plays Princess Diana in the fifth season of the Crown has been all praises for her co-star, Humayun Saeed
“I absolutely adored Humayun — he was such a lovely actor, and such a beautiful person,” she told EW in an exclusive interview.
“You never know how that’s going to feel when you’re playing things like that with an actor. So I was very lucky to have him, and I think he does such a beautiful job.”
