Zara Noor Abbas is relishing her new role as mother. She married another actor Asad Siddiqui and pair welcomed their daughter Noor-e-Jahan into their family in March.

Zara talked candidly about how being mother has changed her life. “Being mother has made my anger completely disappear. I have greater empathy for people now that I am mother, especially mothers. I’ve learned to love other people more,” she said. “I think I am more aware of time now,” she continued. When asked about which of three roles-acting, being wife, or being new mother-is most demanding, Zara said, “None of these things are difficult. If you think of these things as work then it will be difficult for you, but if you do them from place of love, it will be extremely easy for you.” She then shared that she enjoys “Being mother most.”
