It has been two years since Pakistan lost Moin Akhtar and yet he is remembered by thousands who only met him through the flickering screens of their television sets for over three decades.

Moin, for me you were the best Pakistan had to offer. I hope your monument/statue will stand proudly one day, at a busy street junction or in a park or gardens so that our coming generations learn of you and search for your work on DVDs, youtube, etc.

Yes, I remember Moin as he was my cousins friend. I used to see him when he was doing jokes here n there. Then he started doing his part at wedding functions and gradually started getting popular. But it was PTV where he really got the fame. His acting was classic. Jokes were great. He excelled in hosting. He was an actor/ performer where nobody can match him. The gap cannot be filled. He was a legend.

Very saddening... While he was much adored in his lifetime too, no doubt, I guess it was still somehow not enough justice done to this great fella!
