From her debut on big screens with Shoaib Mansoor’s directorial Bol to her first appearance in Bollywood with none other than Shah Rukh Khan for Raees, Mahira Khan has established herself as an unforgettable face in Pakistani entertainment industry and beyond. Back in 2017, Verna actress became first celebrity from Pakistan to be spokesperson for L’Oreal Paris. Joining likes of Bollywood divas including Aishwariya Rai and Deepika Padukone, Khan made an appearance on PLBW runway and let everyone know that it’s only human to make mistakes.

 “My first priority is my child. It is lot of hard work, but it can be done. It’s all about choices. Many times, I have to let go of good work. Fortunately, work I’ve done has worked for me.” In an interview with The Quint, Khan was asked about her struggles as single mother while maintaining successful acting career. To this, superstar noted she is mother before an actor and that her child will always be her first priority. “Tonight I realise how powerful artists are not those in power. We are. Why else do we get banned? Why else do our films pose threat to them? In this game of power we will always win.”
