A new star in the making
In a heart-warming twist in Pakistan's entertainment industry, Farzana Muneer – mother of actor Gohar Rasheed and mother-in-law of actress Kubra Khan – has ventured into acting, proving that it is never too late to pursue one's passions. Farzana has made her television debut with the drama serial Biryani, where she takes on a significant role. For Gohar Rasheed, this was more than just another drama launch – it was an emotional milestone. Sharing a photograph with his mother on social media, according to Express News, the actor expressed both pride and tenderness as he introduced her to the world of acting. According to Gohar, the first day on set carried the nervous energy of a child's first day at school. His mother, despite her age, displayed the same mix of jitters and excitement familiar to newcomers in any field. To ease the transition, both he and Kubra Khan accompanied her early in the morning, making sure she arrived at the set with confidence. "She was so anxious on that first day," Gohar admitted, "but everyone on set treated her with warmth and encouragement." He went on to thank the drama's director and the entire cast for their support in welcoming his mother into the fold of television drama. Farzana Muneer's step into acting highlights a growing acceptance of fresh talent, regardless of age, in Pakistan's entertainment industry. For audiences, her journey is a reminder that passion can find expression at any stage in life.
