you & me

Things started shifting gears for Memoona Qudoos when she was doing her BS Honours in Media Studies from International Islamic University. While doing her university projects, Memoona developed a keen interest in direction, production, script writing and video editing. Her internship in a TV channel further fuelled the fire inside her and she decided to be a part of the showbiz. The actress and model was already getting really good offers from a few directors and all she had to do was choose the best one. 

So, when veteran actor-turned-director Ejaz Aslam approached her, she couldn’t say no. And, instead of an audition, she was given a chance to perform a demo of actual scenes from his serial ‘Chahiye Thora Pyar’. She performed 16 scenes in one day with oozing confidence and easily bagged the role.

Later, actress & TV-host Javeria Saud casted her in the drama ‘Mohabbat Zindagi Hai’ and gave Memoona her first major break in 2017. Known as a quick learner, her on-screen poise and professionalism, she is fast becoming a known name of the industry.

Her superb performances reflect her versatility in serials like ‘Kyunke Ishq Baraye Farokht Nahi’, ‘GT-Road’, ‘Khuda Gawah Hai’ and so on. She proved her mettle and continues to churn out many more great performances in the drama industry.
