My audience is my award: Saba Qamar

The actor recently talked about her life in a QnA session

Saba Qamar held a question and answers session on Twitter earlier this week. The Lahore Se Aagey actor answered various questions about her likes and dislikes, career plans and so forth under the hashtag AskSaba.

During the session, she was asked about a memorable moment on set, if any that touched her heart. To this, Qamar responded with an anecdote of a shoot of hers in Lahore that instilled empathy in her.

"Yes, I did one project near to Lahore area where we shot the whole day and there was a beautiful lady in a room made of mud with no fan and electricity and at that time I realised how blessed we are so we should be always thankful to Allah for all the blessings that he has given us," she said.

When it comes to award shows, the actor talked about how the only validation that mattered to her was of her fans. A fan had asked Qamar, her thought on not getting an award for her performance in Cheekh. "Ap logon k hotay hoay award ki kya zarorat hai (With all of you present, there is no need of awards)," she answered.

As far as her career plans are concerned, Qamar talked about both her pending film projects and possible venture into the digital space. "Yes I just finished my film Kamli and now I’ll be shooting my next upcoming film Ghabrana Nahi hai and then there is a web series coming up on ZEE5, but no drama as yet," she said

According to Qamar, her upcoming TV serial Mann Jogi would air on television in a month or two.

One fan asked her about a possible return to Bollywood. Qamar simply replied with "#AskBollywood". Back in 2017, Qamar had starred opposite Irrfan Khan in Bollywood comedy-drama Hindi Medium. The film was directed by Saket Chaudhary.

Qamar recently posted a snippet of a film’s script on her Instagram story. This led to several speculations as to what the actor’s next venture could be.

 

Additionally, the star also announced that she will be starting her YouTube channel on her birthday.

Among other things, Qamar also wished newlyweds, Sajal Aly and Ahad Raza Mir when a fan asked her what she thought about them. "They’re made for each other, lots of prayers and love for them," Qamar said. Speaking of her fellow actors, Qamar noted that she would love to work with Sanam Saeed in the future. "Yes I would love to, she is an amazing actress," she said.

On the lighter side, the Baghi star talked about how she keeps her self calm and collected. When a fan asked her on how she combats depression, the actor had a very simple response. "I always stay positive, read books, workout and eat healthy so there is no space for depression," she said. She listed The Road to Success as her favourite book. Among other things, Qamar noted that one of her favourite things to do is to show up in public without make-up.
