Popular Pakistani television actor Ali Abbas has candidly addressed the long-standing rumors about his strained relationship with his father, legendary actor Waseem Abbas. In a recent interview, Ali revealed that there was indeed a difficult phase between the two, driven by deep-rooted misunderstandings and emotional pain.

Ali admitted that he felt hurt and distanced for several years, not just as a son but also as an aspiring actor trying to make his own mark without any family influence. He said, “There were times I didn’t feel supported. I had to earn my place in the industry on my own, which created emotional distance between us.”

Despite the painful chapter, Ali shared that time and reflection played a major role in healing. The actor emphasized that he now understands his father better and holds no grudges. “I realized I needed to forgive, not for anyone else, but for my own peace,” he said.

Ali Abbas also highlighted that growing up in a showbiz family was never easy, especially when expectations ran high. He believes the rift actually shaped him into a stronger and more independent individual, both personally and professionally.

Fans praised Ali for his honesty and emotional strength, with many hoping that his openness will inspire others facing similar familial struggles. The heartfelt revelation has added a new layer of respect for the actor, who continues to win hearts with his performances on screen.
