The Shehr-e-Zaat actress shared how people criticize her for wearing makeup, especially after her husband’s passing.
“Why? Now tell me, it’s my job. I come on television, and if the character demands that I wear makeup, I’ll do it. I’ve done roles where I’ve gone with a bare face, no makeup at all. But you didn’t comment on that. Even if there’s no demand, I’m saying it clearly, the first thing is that I am appearing in a role. If the character needs it, I’ll do it. What’s wrong with that?”

Earlier, in a recent podcast with FHM, Veteran actress Hina she shared her opinion on the growing number of divorces in society and how tolerance levels have changed.
“Why should I blame social media? Basically, over time, people’s tolerance has decreased. I believe that. I’ve heard some people say, ‘I was born to put up with this’, but in any relationship, even at work, not every colleague is someone you click with,” she said when asked about issues in marriages and if social media has played any role in it.
“You have to compromise a little bit somewhere… you have to tolerate something. There are some things you just can’t tolerate. There are lines you don’t cross, and the same applies to marriage… you set your own boundaries.”
