LAHORE – Mahira Khan is a lady full of substance and standing. She made us proud on multiple occassions over the years. Her recent trip to Cannes to represent Pakistan was a milestone she reached for us.
She responded to the criticism she received when she was called out for not taking a film to Cannes, “I wish I had gone to Cannes with a film but I had gone there for L’Oreal Pakistan. I cannot tell you the people that I was around, from Helen Mirren to Jane Fonda. It was a proud moment on the red carpet when they announced my name and said ‘Mahira Khan from Pakistan. I feel like Pakistan is my last name now.”
Let us recall all the times she took our breath away with her performances on the big and small screen alike.
Her acting talent in Humsafar was evident and her pairing with Fawad Khan showed us she can star opposite a whole load of talent yet stand her ground.
Her role in Verna was intense and controversial yet she managed to glide away like the pro that she is!
Her aura in Raees, which was a Bollywood wonder proved to us she can perform brilliantly for another fraternity as well.
Bin Roye took us on an emotional ride with Mahira’s performance constantly keeping us on the edge.
Mahira, keep going strong!
