Zhalay Sarhadi Remembers Urwa Hocane’s Silent Support

Actor Zhalay Sarhadi recently shared a heartfelt story of genuine kindness, recalling how Urwa Hocane quietly supported her during a time of deep personal grief.

Speaking to a local news channel, Zhalay explained that after her father’s passing, she kept her pain private, telling only a few colleagues. Despite not being close, Urwa—who had only worked with Zhalay once on the 2013 drama Aik Pagal Si Larki—showed up unannounced and stayed by her side for two days.

“She was new in Karachi, living in a rented house and driving a rented car,” Zhalay remembered. “I had no idea what she was going through herself, yet she was there for me.”

Zhalay, known for being reserved about her personal life, said the gesture left a lasting impression. “We weren’t even friends, but she showed rare empathy. I will always remember that.”
