Mahira Khan and Samina Peerzada on Acting & Roles Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta Dubai | Sunday Special
.
Superstar Mahira Khan and veteran actress Samina Peerzada sit down with host Adeel Hashmi for a sharp, honest panel on the entertainment industry. Recorded live at Jashn-e-Rekhta Dubai, this special session titled Kahaani Se Kirdaar Tak breaks down how actors turn simple text on a page into legendary screen roles.
Mahira Khan shares rare details about how she prepares for complex characters. She walks through the actual methods behind her breakthrough performance in the hit drama Humsafar, the kind of process notes you rarely hear actors talk about openly. Samina Peerzada adds the long view, with thoughtful context on the growth and depth of South Asian cinema over the last few decades.
It's the kind of conversation that doubles as an acting masterclass. Useful for any aspiring performer, and just as rewarding for fans of Pakistani drama and storytelling. Both actresses also look at the real life behind the glitz and glamour of show business, without softening anything.
