Actress Komal Aziz says that the showbiz environment was not favourable for educated people and that was the reason behind her leaving the entertainment world at the peak of her career.

In an interview with a private TV channel, Komal clarified that her decision to quit showbiz was not about earning, saying that money was never an issue in showbiz and that she was already earning well from her business. "Because the industry's atmosphere was becoming increasingly unbearable," she said. Speaking candidly, Komal remarked that "the environment there is simply not suitable for educated individuals."

She further said that working hours in showbiz are extremely long, politics runs deep, meals are not provided on time, and hygiene arrangements are poor. All these factors contributed to her decision to quit, and she has no regrets about it, she added.

"Fame is not everything," the actress stated. She also revealed that due to the same toxic environment and politics, she neither has close friends in showbiz nor on social media.
