Actor Hania Aamir and filmmaker Saman Kamraan have been featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia list for 2026, earning spots in the entertainment category in the 11th version of the yearly ranking that recognizes 30 young people throughout the region.
Aamir, with her ten-year acting profession, now holds the position as the most followed Pakistani woman on Instagram, with 20 million followers.
Her television work includes shows like Kabhi Main Kabhi Tumand Meri Zindagi Hai Tu. She is set to appear in the upcoming series Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo, which will be Pakistan’s first Netflix Original production. In addition to her media work, Aamir was named the UN Women’s National Goodwill Ambassador in October of the previous year.
Kamraan, in contrast, entered the list because of her work as a filmmaker who concentrates on social issues. Her short film, The Bed She Made, was the only Pakistani entry at the Busan International Short Film Festival this year. The film examines the link between climate change and fertility in Pakistan.
