We often talk about our Pakistani actresses and models and how talented they are. We discuss their work and praise them for their choice of projects or their extraordinary talent. But have we ever thought how good these women are at multitasking…
celebrity moms
Most of these women are married and have kids, and we can only imagine how they must be managing two full-time jobs together. With a great demand in the industry, they are beautifully managing their time with the kids too.
On this Mother’s Day, here’s a list of a few artists who are not only brilliant actresses but doting moms too...
Mother of two, Ayeza Khan is undoubtedly the reigning queen of the TV industry right now. After her successful stint as Mehwish in the recently concluded super hit serial ‘Mere Pass Tum Ho’, she is once again one of the most sought-after actresses, starring in much talked about ‘Meherposh’ these days.
No wonder she is doing a lot of work these days but you will always find her visiting her daughter’s school to pick her up or celebrating her son’s birthday, or just spending time with the kids. We wonder how she manages the time with a busy work schedule and two young kids but that’s what makes her a supermom.
VJ turned actress, Mahira Khan is a superstar in the real sense of the word. From TV to films, she is one actress who is proudly the face of Pakistan and represents us internationally due to professional work as well as humanitarian one.
Mother of a young son Azlan, Mahira Khan also has the credit of working in Bollywood and creating a name for herself. She has never considered motherhood as an obstacle in her career. In fact, she rose to fame after being a mother and has been balancing both fronts since then.
She is also often seen posting pictures and videos with her son. Be it her birthday or his, or any other event, she always finds time and reason to celebrate with her only son. Surely, her busy career did not come in between the bond of a mother and her son.
The young and petite Syra Yousuf is former VJ, model and an actress who has promoted from working on TV to films. Needless to say, she has conquered all fronts and is a household name in Pakistan.
A mother of a 5-year-old daughter, Nooreh, she is a cool and happening mom. Nooreh is a celebrity herself as she can be seen on social media involved in fun activities or can be spotted in entertainment magazines and newspapers where she accompanies her mother.
Syra has done some tremendous roles on TV like ‘Tanhaiyan’, ‘Bilqees Kaur’, ‘Ru Baru’, ‘Coke Kahani’ and also ventured into big screen with ‘Chalay The Saath’, most of which she did after she became a mother. This shows that she has a promising career ahead and her daughter will be an integral part of her successful future even in the years to come.
A recipient of around 10 different awards for her acting and modelling career, Aamina Sheikh is one of the most refined actresses of Pakistan. She not just carved a niche for herself in acting, but has been a supermodel as well.
She was on the top of her career when she gave birth to her daughter, Meissa, in 2015, and took a backseat from work. We missed her, yes. But we also understand her commitment towards being a mother. She gave complete attention to her daughter in the first couple of years and is now slowly coming back to her professional life.
She was last seen in 2018 movie ‘Cake’, in which she was spectacular and proved how natural she is as an actress. She is also returning to modelling and can be seen in TV commercials. Though, we wish her a great motherhood, it goes beyond saying that we also wish her to pick up more acting assignments as performers like her have become a rarity now.
Beautiful and elegant Sarwat Gillani is another celebrity mom who needs no introduction at all. A great actress of our time, she is remembered for her unforgettable roles in ‘Malaal’, ‘Azar Ki Ayegi Baraat’, ‘Meri Zaat Zarra e Benishan’, ‘Dil e Muztar’, ‘Seeta Bagri’ and ‘Khasara’ to name a few.
A mother of two, she limited her on screen presence after the birth of her kids although she is still one of the most sought-after actresses.
Why did we get her on the list now? Well, for the fact that Sarwat is often spotted in various events with her kids and is on every school occasion her kids have. Even in this quarantine, she has been active on social media demonstrating how to spend creative time with your kids and keep them busy constructively. She deserves to be on our list without any doubt.
She was a supermodel at the time when she married actor Hassan Ahmed. She was ruling the ramp, was the face of some of the big brands, doing a number TV plays, and winning awards. And then she became a mother and we saw her less for quite a few years. We are sure it was not an easy decision to take a backseat when you are running the show but she did for her kids and we respect her for that.
To our relief, we can see her back on the ramp and in some TV appearances too. We have to admit, she is still gorgeous and graceful.
One celebrity mother who has always impressed us is Nadia Hussain. This supermodel of yesterday and even today doesn’t seem to be fading away anywhere.
Dentist, owner of a spa & salon, model and a mother of four, it is just fascinating to see her managing all roles with excellence. You can often see her on morning shows along with her kids talking passionately about them and their interests. She is hands down one of the most fascinating celebrity moms of our industry.
