Be it recovering from a fall on the ramp or playing a risky role, Saba Qamar can do it all without ever compromising her effortlessly sophisticated demeanor. On the occasion of her birthday, we've picked out the top five roles the actor has won us over with.
1. Baaghi

Baaghi depicted the story of the ambitious, fun-loving Qandeel Baloch who had the world resting on her shoulders; a girl who left her home to escape the village life that she didn’t quite agree with.
The show was a huge success and a lot of the credit goes to Saba and her ability to portray the late Qandeel.
2. Hindi Medium
