Shaan Shahid’s Shirtless Fitness Post Sparks Online Buzz
Renowned actor Shaan Shahid has ignited discussions across social media with his latest shirtless fitness post. At 50, the veteran actor shared his transformation journey on Facebook, proudly showcasing his toned physique. The post received a mix of reactions, ranging from admiration for his dedication to criticism accusing him of seeking attention unnecessarily.
Some fans celebrated Shaan’s commitment to health, while others were more skeptical. A few commenters expressed shock, with one sarcastically labeling the post a “leaked video,” and another questioning why the actor felt the need to display his body.
In response to the backlash, Shaan doubled down, reposting his image alongside a pointed message:
“Men and women are created equal by the creator, yet both are given different gifts. Men are gifted with physical strength, while women are gifted with beauty, patience, fragility, strength, and modesty. As an artist at 50, it’s my job to transform according to the script—I’m just doing my job,” he wrote.
Shaan also emphasized his gratitude for good health, explaining his intention to inspire peers to prioritize fitness.
“The world we live in has given men the right to go shirtless. While some may take issue with this, I didn’t create the society—I’m just part of it. Those seeking to challenge societal norms are welcome to try; their posts may even go more viral than mine,” he quipped.
His bold reply added fuel to the ongoing debate, earning both praise for his honesty and criticism for his views on societal expectations. The post underscores the intense scrutiny public figures often face.
Separately, Shaan recently appeared on Coffee with Samaa, hosted by Naeem Hanif and Bushra Khan. When asked about considering a transition to television, Shaan revealed he had once been approached for the lead role in Humsafar, which later went to Fawad Khan.
Explaining his decision to decline, Shaan said, “I was very busy at the time. Fawad played the role, and I had previously worked with him in Khuda Ke Liye. I believe there’s still much to achieve in this field. We need to unite our efforts instead of dividing ourselves further.”
Shaan’s candid remarks and fitness journey continue to keep him at the center of public and media attention.
