@sanam_zaryab crafted it with tenderness and thoughtfulness, while Mehreen Jabbar approached it with clarity and sensitivity, and @ttayyab_shah captured it beautifully without diminishing Saeeda’s physical and emotional pain or her humor. I view myself as a director’s actor, so if you appreciated any of my scenes, the credit rightfully belongs to Mehreen and her awesome team. With much love, special thanks to Marina ji, @mohammedahmedsyed saab, @hajra_yamin, Kubra, Noor-e-Sahar and the amazing make up team of Fayyaz, Azeem and Arbaaz???? #drbahu #ary @arydigital.tv #cancer #cancersurvivors @sixxsigmaplus #bakhtawarmazhar.”
