Maya Khan is a renowned Pakistani television host and a talented actress who gained instant recognition through the PTV drama Aik Muhabbat So Afsaney. She also achieved household popularity through her hit Samaa TV morning show. In 2024, Maya Khan made her comeback with the drama series Mayi Ri. Fans also praised her acting in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. Recently, she received acclaim for her character Waniya in the drama series Baray Bhaiyya. Maya Khan is also a successful businesswoman who runs her own herbal brand. She has recently written a book and will soon start her podcast on her digital media.

Recently, Maya Khan appeared on Nadia Khan’s morning show Rise and Shine via a Zoom link. During the interview, she opened up about how her savings were taken by her ex-husband.

Talking about it, Maya Khan said, “My savings were taken from me in my previous life; all my money was snatched by that man. I had spoken up about it everywhere and had all the proofs. I visited courts for two years, yet I couldn’t recover my hard-earned money. You’re right—I could have gone to the media, but when a person goes through trauma, such things don’t come to mind. I was literally suffering during my court days because when famous people like us go to court while covering our faces and people still recognize us, it becomes a cultural shock to see ourselves in such a weak position.”

Namra Shahid is a main-stream Pakistani television and film actor who began her career in 2016. Her most popular television shows include hits like Shahrukh Ki Saaliyaan, Saheliyaan, Saya-e-Deewar Bhi Nahi, Shiddat, Bholi Bano, Darr Khuda Se, Romeo Weds Heer, and Aye Musht-e-Khaak. Recently, fans praised her acting in Mohra, and these days she is receiving widespread acclaim for her outstanding performance in Hum TV’s Muamma. Viewers are also praising her on-screen chemistry with Saba Qamar and the storyline between Jiji and Asiya.

Recently, Namra Shahid appeared on Fuchsia Magazine’s popular YouTube show, hosted by Rabia Mughni. During the show, she discussed how she landed the role in Muamma and shared her experience working alongside Saba Qamar.

Talking about the Muamma offer, Namra Shahid said, “I was called by Irum Bint-e-Shahid from HUM TV. She said, ‘We are doing a big project with a big cast and the character is very strong. It is the role of Jahanara’s attendant.’ I was shocked and said to her, ‘Is this why I gave ten years to the industry—to accept a maid’s role?’ She then explained that it is an important character because the whole story revolves around Jahanara and Asiya, and that it is not a typical saas-bahu drama. She also told me that Saba Qamar is playing Jahanara. When I heard Saba Qamar’s name, I said, ‘I’m sold.’ I didn’t even read the script at first. Later, I asked for the script, and after reading five episodes, I was blown away. It was amazing, and working with Saba Qamar itself was a great opportunity.”

Talking about her relationship with Jahanara, aka Jiji, she said, “Asiya is loyal and wants to stay with Jiji because the way the script is written, it feels like Asiya is Jiji’s right hand. I think people didn’t perceive it the way it was written, or maybe it couldn’t be portrayed that way. Now, after seeing this episode, Asiya knows what happened in Jiji’s life. Jiji is now left with only one relationship, and that is Asiya. I also don’t understand why people think Asiya and Ashiq are not husband and wife. How is that even possible? There is a mystery behind the two separate beds in the room.”
