Sehban Azim on World Nature Conservation Day, says ‘A greener, kinder world is still within reach'
On the occasion of World Nature Conservation Day, observed every year on July 28, actor Sehban Azim shared a powerful message urging people to re-evaluate their relationship with the planet. Known for his sensitive portrayals in shows like Dill Mill Gayye, Bepannaah, and Spy Bahu, Sehban used the opportunity to speak from the heart about environmental degradation and hope for change. Highlighting the day's importance, he said, 'The day also emphasizes the need to conserve vital elements of nature such as flora, fauna, air, water, soil, and energy resources to maintain ecological balance.' He went on to paint a stark picture of the current state of the planet, saying, 'The Earth is not ours, we don't own it, but because we consider ourselves the most intelligent species, it should be considered ours to protect. Forests are being burnt for profits, oceans are choking on plastic, species are vanishing in silence, and bombs are falling louder than the cries of a dying planet.' Expressing concern over the choices made in the name of development, he added, 'Major corporations are tearing down ancient forests for short-term gain. Cities are drowning in smoke, children grow up under sirens instead of birdsong, and we're drifting closer to a dystopian future.' But his message wasn't without hope. 'Even now, in the depths of greed and war, seeds of hope remain. If we choose peace over power, planet over profit, and regeneration over destruction—a greener, kinder world is still within reach.' Quoting Ozzy Osbourne, he concluded, 'I'm a dreamer, who dreams of better days.' Sehban emphasized that by uniting for this global cause, we can spark real change and work toward a sustainable, thriving Earth for future generations.

'Their values, principles, and optimism had become an integral part of my being. I knew they'd want me to keep moving forward, chasing my dreams, and never giving up.' Now, as the head of his family, Pankit is focused on continuing the legacy his parents left behind. 'I'll continue to honor their memory, keep their legacy alive, and take care of my younger siblings. I know my parents are watching over me, guiding me, and protecting me.' He adds, 'Life is precious, and every moment counts. I've learned to cherish every second, every minute, and every hour.' Every year on Parents' Day, Pankit makes sure to spend time with those in need. 'I always make sure to spend some special time on such occasion with people in need… sharing love, care, and company,' he concludes.
