Our very own Chanda from Suno Chanda, Iqra Aziz is one of the most versatile actresses among the new generation. She has worked on numerous drama projects until now and almost all of them have been super hits. She knows how to own the character and play it the way it should be.
She has been nominated for several awards and has already won seven. She is currently nominated in the Best Actress category at the Lux Style Awards 2020 for Ranjha Ranjha Kardi.
If you are a die-hard Iqra fan, or just like her for who she is, here are some less known facts about her that make her all the more appealing.
Iqra started her career with modeling and commercials. She still does commercials but her priority is dramas.
Iqra made her debut in 2014 in a drama serial Kissay Apna Kahein in a supporting role alongside Arij Fatyma and Danish Taimoor. The surprising thing is that Iqra was only 17 years old when she played this role.
She was later cast in a leading role in drama serial Muqaddas opposite Noor Hassan. It was written by Adeel Razzak, directed by Ali Masud Saeed and produced by MD Productions. The drama aired on Hum Tv. It proved to be her “breakthrough” drama and she received Hum Award for Best Television Sensation Female.
Iqra was born on November 24, 1997 and belongs to a Sindhi family. Her family includes her mother and sister Sidra Aziz, and herself. Her mother raised the two girls as a single parent. Iqra’s mother is one of the best examples of women empowerment in Pakistan as she struggled hard for her children and was the first female Careem driver in Karachi.
Iqra once revealed in an interview that they went through a financial crisis but her mother made it through by struggling for her family with dignity and pride. She also shared in another interview that her mother wanted a son and was disappointed at her birth.
Iqra didn’t have a clue who her father was until she was three. Her father worked in Saudi Arabia and came back home when she was three years old. Unfortunately, he died of a heart attack when Iqra was only twelve. She frequently talks about the time spent with her dad and misses the nine years they spent together.
Iqra couldn’t complete her graduation and holds an unfinished Bachelors of Commerce Degree from the University of Karachi. She is, however, looking to complete her education as soon as possible, when she gets a break from acting and modeling.
For those who don’t know, Iqra and Yasir had a very public engagement at the 18th Lux Style Awards. Hussain went down on one knee at the event and proposed to her. Some say that the proposal was planned and Iqra knew that he was going to propose. The couple formally tied the knot on December 28, 2019.
Iqra has a YouTube Channel. Her initial two videos introducing the channel — titled ‘I AM NOT BORING!!‘, comprised of a montage of photographs with a cutie named Mogambo, and “You Me and Youtube”.

Sharing pictures from their nikkah, which was held earlier this year, Farwa said: “In 2014, Haroon and I met for the first time. We were introduced to each other through a cousin of mine.”
While things didn’t work out then, sparks flew when they met again a few years later.
“We finally got to hang out earlier this year”, she revealed. “We met a couple of times and there was an immediate connection. We started to get to know each other better. Just a couple of weeks later, he surprised me with a proposal and confessed that he had liked me all along. I was pretty shocked and surprised in a happy way and said YES! The connection and understanding that I felt with him, I had never felt anything like that before in my life.”
“So we decided not to waste time and got married within a few weeks.”
Farwa also shared that she liked that Haroon asked her to marry him instead of asking her to be in a relationship with him.
Responding to his wife’s post, Haroon said: “What a special day that was.”
Haroon and Farwa often make heart flutter with their public displays of affections and cutesy Instagram posts.
Earlier, Haroon had said that he “never had the desire to marry in the past” and was “happily living a single life”, until he met his wife and “everything changed”.

Lahore-based photographer Areesh Zubair, who initiated an interesting project titled Duur se Portrait during the lockdown, wrapped up season one of the series with family portraits of Fawad, his wife Sadaf, their two children and their dog.
Pictures from the shoot have gone viral on social media, with fans sending love to the actor and his family.
In the caption, Zubair shared that he took these photographs on June 14, 2020. Last month, the family also welcomed a new addition after the couple was blessed with a baby girl.
The photographer, while explaining the series, said: “Making full use of this time of lockdown, I began to innovate with documenting the pandemic and came up with the #DuurSePortrait Series, where I visited homes, asked people to pose on their balconies and took their portraits whilst maintaining a lot of safe, #DuurSe distance – which was one of the key precautions for this virus.”
“However, as miraculously as it was, the lockdown was lifted in the country, after which I had to pause this series as life went back to normal. With the virus entering its second phase now, almost a year later, I really don’t know if I’ll be able to restart the series or not,” he continued.
“One thing is for sure, though – with this very special picture take of the Fawad A Khan clan, I officially announce the end of #DuurSePortrait Season.”
The photographer had earlier also shared pictures of Sadaf and the kids and referred to the fashion designer as one of the “nicest tareen people”.
Areesh also photographed several other celebrities including Junaid Khan, Mira Sethi and Wahaj Ali for his series.
