Toss up: Humaima Malik

The saucy actress, Humaima Malik, opens up about her crush on Wasim Akram, banning mujras and dancing with Narendra Modi!



1. One thing you discovered about Imran Hashmi?

He is obsessed with his food and taunts people on the dining table if they are eating anything unhealthy. This was something I noticed while we were on and off set. Another thing people do not know about him is that he loves to crack dirty jokes!

2. If your life were a movie, what would the title be?

Hurrem, The Bended Queen.



3. If you could ban something in this country what would it be?

I’d ban mujras. I have never liked the concept and I think it would be fun to ban them.

4. Stupidest question you’ve ever been asked?

This happens to me a lot on flights and I get really irritated. When I am flying from either Lahore to Karachi or vice versa, someone sitting next to me will ask: “So where are you going?” to start a conversation. I mean we are on the same flight, we have the same destination, where else would I be going?



5. Who was your first celebrity crush?

Imran Khan, Wasim Akram, and Shaan. The reasons are quite obvious, so don’t make me say them!

6. The last person you called or texted?

It’s a secret, but I just called Momina Sibtain. Ironic, right!



7. What’s the strangest thing you ever read about yourself on the Internet?

Various stories about my divorce! I was previously married and did get a divorce, but some bloggers sensationalised the news and made it sound quite scandalous. Once I read that I was caught flirting with a man in a swimming pool, and that is what led to my divorce. The funny thing is that I don’t even know how to swim!

8. Most important quality you look for in a guy?

Everything else aside, his pocket should be heavy.



9. What’s on your mind right now?

As cheesy as it may sound, but love is on my mind.

10. What’s your favourite movie of all time?

3 Idiots, The Devil Wears Prada and The Avengers. I can watch these movies over and over again. 3 Idiots is very entertaining, The Devil Wears Prada is super-glamorous and my love for superheroes finds transcendence in The Avengers.



11. Item of clothing that you’ve had for the longest?

This Burberry jacket that I love, and even though it is falling apart I can’t part with it.

12. What’s your guilty pleasure?

Food, food and more food! I am a big foodie and eat more than I should. I also have a major sweet tooth and love desserts and chocolates.



13. What’s the one word or phrase you use the most?

I create random words all the time, but I use khalaas the most!

14. What’s the biggest perk of being an actress?

Everyone treats you like a princess! Even in your own house you are given special treatment, and I love being treated that way.

15. Three things that no one knows about you?

I’m very jealous, possessive, competitive and totally mad, but I mean no harm.

16. One person you’d like to dance with?

Narendra Modi. It may sound a little lame, but I think I would learn some new steps. I don’t know what is it about him that makes me want to dance with him.

17. If there’s anything missing in your life, what is it?

Maybe a new car right now, an Audi is on my wish list.

18. Last lie you told?

I lied to my PR publicist today. I told her that I’m not well, and couldn’t make it for a meeting, when I was actually just being lazy and wanted to get some more sleep. Sorry, Sahr!

19. Biggest goal for 2016?

I want to expand my range as an actor. I’d love to do a film in another language, in a foreign country. That would be very exciting for me, and something I definitely want to do this year.
