**Interview with Haba Bukhari: The Golden Girl of Pakistani Television**
*Independent Urdu: Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Haba Bukhari, one of the most popular actresses on Pakistani television right now. Haba, thank you for joining us!*
**Haba Bukhari:** Thank you for having me!
*Independent Urdu: You’ve had an incredible run with your dramas, many of which have become trending topics on YouTube. What do you think contributes to this success?*
**Haba Bukhari:** I believe the secret lies in prayers and working with good intentions. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to be part of projects that resonate with the audience. When we approach our work with sincerity, it often reflects in the final product.
*Independent Urdu: Among your latest works, your role in ‘Inthaay Ishq’ seems to stand out. Can you share the story behind your decision to marry Aries on set?*
**Haba Bukhari:** (laughs) Yes, it was quite a story! I met Aries while filming ‘Bholi Banu,’ and we later connected again on the set of ‘Tarap.’ Initially, we were just friends. It was during filming ‘Inthaay Ishq’ that Aries proposed to me. I thought he was joking at first, but once he said he would speak to my parents, it became real!
*Independent Urdu: You’ve also made some choices regarding the types of roles you take on. Why have you chosen to avoid dramas that depict excessive crying or oppression of women?*
**Haba Bukhari:** I’ve turned down several scripts where women’s roles are heavily focused on suffering. While I respect producers and their vision, I sometimes wonder about the justification for these narratives when they consistently succeed. People enjoy that content, and it’s a supply-and-demand situation—what’s popular is often what gets produced.
*Independent Urdu: That’s an honest perspective. So, should the audience be more vocal about what they want to see?*
**Haba Bukhari:** Absolutely! If viewers want to see change in the storytelling, then they should react. There are many good dramas that don’t get the same recognition because they don’t fit the audience’s expectations. A shift in demand can definitely lead to a shift in what gets produced.
*Independent Urdu: what’s next for you? Any upcoming projects or dreams you’d like to share?*
**Haba Bukhari:** I’m exploring a few exciting roles that focus on strong, empowering narratives for women. I’m passionate about being part of content that not only entertains but also inspires. I’m looking forward to what the future holds!
*Independent Urdu: Thank you, Haba, for your time today and for sharing your insights. Wishing you continued success in your career!*
**Haba Bukhari:** Thank you! It was a pleasure talking to you.
