Shahid Afridi became a celebrity at 17 and grew into a major name in cricket with the nation’s love and appreciation behind him. He excelled in all formats of cricket and continued to dominate in various leagues. After retiring from the sport, Afridi shifted his focus to leagues and philanthropic projects, remaining an influential figure in the public eye.

Shahid Afridi appeared on Ushna Shah’s new show, addressing one of the most frequently asked questions lately. With media anchors and channel owners rising to prominent government positions in Pakistan, many wondered if Afridi had similar ambitions, especially after making notable political statements over the past year.

Shahid Afridi said that “he wanted to join politics and had a party in mind but after 2021, he decided against it. He does not want to join politics now and wants to focus on philanthropy. Afridi believes people in power here do not work and only keep fighting and thus he will avoid that.”
