BALACH MASUD

you & me

Model and Vlogger Balach Masood may have a good following on social media but off-screen, he is a just the guy next door. With his good looks, his friends and family encouraged him to take up modelling. He auditioned for a reality show ‘Champion’, hosted by Waqar Zaka, which opened doors for opportunities for him. Photographer Khawar Riaz also noticed his talent and called him for audition, which was followed by a portfolio, after which there was no looking back. He has modelled for big names like Gul Ahmed, Royal Tag, Junaid Jamshaid, Amir Adnan, Kurta Corner, Deepak Perwani and Friction. He has also been featured in TVCs for Velo, Kia motors, Coke studios, to name a few. Upon asking what he thinks is his best work to date, Balach shares, “I have done many commercials, shoots, TV shows but the best work that I have done are my YouTube vlogs. I am my own boss, and I get to be the director, cinematographer, VFX animator, actor and above all a content creator. I have gained more than 300,000 subscribers and millions of views. I capture my experiences for my audience and in the process create memories that allow me to live a fuller life.” Let’s get to know the likes and dislikes of this charming lad…
