**Interview with Haba Bukhari: The Golden Touch of Pakistani Television**
**Interviewer:** Welcome, Haba Bukhari! It’s great to have you here. You’ve been the talk of the town lately with your incredible success in the television industry. Tell us, what do you think is behind this golden touch?
**Haba Bukhari:** Thank you for having me! I truly believe that it all comes down to prayers and working with good intentions. Each project I take on is approached with a genuine passion for storytelling and a desire to connect with the audience.
**Interviewer:** You recently tied the knot with fellow actor Aries. Can you share a little about how you two met?
**Haba Bukhari:** We first met on the set of the drama ‘Bholi Banu,’ and later we worked together on ‘Tarap,’ but at that time, we were just friends. It was during the filming of ’Inthaay Ishq’ that Aries proposed to me. At first, I thought it was a joke, but when he asked to speak to my parents, I realized he was serious!
**Interviewer:** That’s such a lovely story! Speaking of your projects, you’ve been selective about the roles you accept. What influences your decision?
**Haba Bukhari:** I’ve turned down several roles where the portrayal of women was heavily emotional or oppressive. While those dramas achieved commercial success, I feel that each actor has a responsibility in choosing roles that elevate women’s narratives rather than reinforce stereotypes. However, it’s a tricky balance since what sells often reflects audience demand.
**Interviewer:** You’ve mentioned that producers tend to create content based on profitability. How do you reconcile this with the pressing issues of women’s representation in dramas?
**Haba Bukhari:** It’s a complex issue. Producers invest in what they believe will attract viewers, and unfortunately, that sometimes means perpetuating negative stereotypes. If audiences want change, they must voice their preferences. There are many wonderful dramas that don’t get the recognition they deserve, but the industry often caters to popular demand.
**Interviewer:** Lastly, could you tell us about your character, Dilnashin? What makes her special to you?
**Haba Bukhari:** Dilnashin is a multi-dimensional character who faces challenges but also displays strength and resilience. I admire how she navigates her circumstances, and I hope audiences see her as an empowering figure. Portraying her has been rewarding, and I believe she embodies the positive change we want to see in media representations of women.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for sharing your insights, Haba! We look forward to seeing more of your amazing work on television.
**Haba Bukhari:** Thank you! I appreciate the platform to discuss these important topics.
