Emmad Irfani On What He Has In Common With Jami | Six Screens

The Pakistani actor Emmad Irfani recently discussed his part in the successful drama Kafeel. He gave personal information on how he relates to his character Jami. His interview was aired on the Pyar, Zindagi Aur Karachi Season 2 show of Fuchsia Magazine. He discussed a lot about acting, emotions, and human flaws. 

Emmad has performed for over 25 years.

He began his career as a leading fashion model and then a leading TV actor. He appeared in numerous dramas including Tawan, Ranjish Hi Sahi, Jaan-e-Jahan, Jalan and Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. He is now getting accolades regarding his fiery personality in Kafeel. 

The actor was candid in the interview when he discussed what makes Jami seem real.

He also described how acting assists him in discovering his emotions. This blog discusses his mindset and the reason people are so fond of his performance.

Jami: A Character with Multifacetedness

Jami is a very flawed character in Kafeel.

He expresses anger, frustration, and toxic behaviours. Jami is disturbing and real to many viewers. Emmad replied that Jami has antics and traits that are quite hateful. He acknowledged that he was disgusted by the script when he first read it. This response was due to the fact that the behaviour of Jami is morally questionable.

Nevertheless, Emmad was aware of the fact that he needed to display these qualities on screen. He needed to make them appear true and believable.  He described how the author wrote Jami with powerful emotions and conflicts. Hence, Emmad was forced to invest his efforts and concentration in the position.

He declared that he had to forget himself and enter into the world of Jami. This is what he used to make the character alive. 

Discovering something real in Jami

In spite of the fact that Jami appears to be so different to him, Emmad discovered one thing that could be considered as a point of contact.

He explained that he is aware of anger management and anger problems that Jami has. He said that anger usually arises out of helplessness. Furthermore Emmad acknowledged that he had anger problems before. He even said that he had road rage at times.

Nonetheless, he said that he tried his best to restrain himself. He emphasized that it is individuals who get angry and not other people. Every individual has to be responsible for his/her feelings.In such a manner, Emmad could relate to the emotions of the character personally. 

This frankness renders his interview unique.

There are lots of actors who discuss technique, and few of them discuss their inner conflicts.

The honest statements of Emmad made the fans know the character and the actor.

Negative roles require emotions 

Emmad is of the opinion that acting involves emotional integrity. According to him, negative characters do not represent the actual personality of a person. Moreover the depiction of such individuals cannot be done without emotion. 

He did not pretend to be emotional; he observed the way people behaved. This assisted him in portraying Jami as a non-judgmental person. I find out my own feelings, he said, and even astonish myself.

This demonstrates the way acting can bring out the concealed parts of an artist. 

In addition, he said that actors are supposed to honor the vision of the writer. A good script develops depth in characters with their weaknesses and strengths. All these layers should be taken to the screen by a good actor.

Thus, Emmad commended the author for providing Jami with a complicated personality. 

The Reason Audiences Relate With Jami

Even though most of the fans hate what Jami does on-screen, they do not deny his realism.

Others referred to Jami as one of the most persuasive negative roles in recent times. Others claimed that the character is familiar to them as there are several real individuals that exhibit the same traits. This discussion demonstrates that drama may mirror human reality.

When actors perform complicated roles in a good way, people discuss, argue, and express their opinions. They talk about inspirations, vulnerabilities, and emotional stimuli. The way Emmad depicted Jami resonated with the audience since it was not overdramatic. He did not make Jami a villain, but a human being.

This is one of the reasons why the character is memorable to most fans.

He plays a darker and more dramatic role in Kafeel. This transformation demonstrates his versatility as an actor. His versatility is now being hailed by many critics and fans. They think that he is capable of dealing with different characters in a depth and skillful manner.

Emmad’s Control Over Emotions 

The work of Jami taught Emmad about new things concerning emotional control. According to him, roles such as this are helpful in his growth. Rather than being emotional, he was taught to interpret emotion. This style renders scenes strong without becoming melodramatic.

In addition, the acceptance of emotional reality enables Emmad not to overact. In his opinion, subtlety adds depth, particularly in dramatic parts. His acting ideology explains why he is still a relevant actor in the current drama world.

Final Thoughts 

The interview of Emmad Irfani gave the fans a better insight into his art. He discussed the emotional strata of Jami with respect and sincerity. He described the reason why the role was real and why he was able to identify with it.
