"I was a part of numerous fashion shows in Pakistan and also represented the country on a global platform, which helped me create my own identity," she said. Hussain further added that she even ventured into a fashion business of her own because it was a part of her profession.

Currently, the 39-year-old owns the Nadia Hussain Lawn line and the Nadia Hussain Salon in Karachi. Being a dentist by degree, Hussain also works at her dental clinic.

But Hussain still receives offers for acting. She shared, "A well-known personality from our film industry offered me a role for a film recently but after reading the script and getting to know about my character, I refused it."

Hussain maintained that acting requires a lot of time and effort which is useless if the character is not strong or powerful enough. "I think whenever I do sign a film, I'll make sure that it's a lead role."

The superstar also discussed celebrities who have been taking up projects out of Pakistan, especially Bollywood. But according to her, working in Bollywood is not a big deal. "I only wish to work on something important that delivers a good message. I prefer unique roles which help me create an identity of my own. I will choose to do something that benefits my country."
