May he rest in peace, Amin.How can you forget his PTV drama in 80s Hazaroun Rastay written by Mustansar Husain Tarar.Dasht should certainly be on the list. That was also the peak popular time of PTV drama and Abid Ali was dominating the Pakistani miniscreen with other great stars of the time. After 2000, he worked for about two decades on private channels but his ultimate recognition always remained PTV. Rest in Peace Sir, your were a true legend!a great personality a legend actor.
