KARACHI: United Marine Agency (UMA) organised celebration in honour of veteran TV and film artiste Neelofer Abbasi at a local hotel. Chief Executive Officer United Marine Agency Sohail Shams along with guests and participants gave standing ovation to legendary artiste Neelofer Abbasi who ruled an era.

CEO United Marine Agency Sohail Shams said that it is quite difficult to carve niche in entertainment industry in Pakistan and Neelofer Abbasi was one who achieved great success with her outstanding performance in cutthroat competition. Her TV serial Shahzori had great impact on our films. Shahzori girl, Neelofer Abbasi, played this bold character brilliantly, although it was so difficult to portray character of an outspoken daring woman at that time. She made history with this remarkable character in television and PTV does not have artiste like Neelofer as yet.

Neelofar Abbasi said that my husband Qamar Ali Abbasi inspired me and encouraged to write. Your love and appreciation is my real asset. What fortunate person I am to have such wonderful people who love me so much. Today I am at this position because of you. Eminent educationist, politician and anchor Khush Bakht Shujaat said that we are all here because of Neelofer Abbasi. Play Shahzuri was golden hit, written in history of drama. We have long association with Neelofer Abbassi.
