Sarah Khan,
She is young and beautiful.
Her laughter is infectious
I don't know much about her
But today we will know her.
Let's meet Sarah Khan.
Samina: Thank you so much Sarah for being here. Sarah: Thank you!
What are you doing in Lahore?
In Lahore, I had an interview with you
Samina: Thank you! Sarah: And I was very excited.
And I came for two days for a project too.
Is it a secret project?
Or you can talk about it?
It's a Campaign for Lawn but I can't disclose the name.
That will be launched in summers.
It's a very interesting project.
Do you like modeling?
No, not at all.
I love only acting.
I don't even like doing commercials
because you have only one facial expression all day.
In acting, you have different facial expressions
Like crying, laughing and running etc.
Don't you think
acting takes time? I mean,
a serial of 26 episodes?
I love acting too much that I don't realize the time.
If twelve hours work increases to 15 hours
I will do it easily because I love working
On set.
In our work, you know
We have to wait for two to three hours
on set and that is very tiring for me. Samina: What do you do then?
I always have Holy Quran in my bag.
My father prints Holy Quran
in seventy different languages.
He is an offset printer.
Everyone asks me to bring Quran in
English language or in other languages.
So, I read Quran in my free time
Now a days I am reading Quran in detail
I have a detailed book on Quran.
So, I read Quran in my free time
Samina: Bibliography? Sarah: Yes.
Samina: Something with that name? Sarah: Yes.
There's a book on the translation of Quran
It's the translation,
Which explains Quran in detail.
I am trying to read it.
Knowledge is amazing.
There are so many stories in Quran and so fascinating.
Especially Surah Yusuf
Which fascinates me a lot. Sarah: Really?
Yes. Read it.
It is such an amazingly
Explained and written story.
All the stories in Quran, which I have read
I want to read more
And more.
There is a lot to learn.
And the change I have
Felt in me due to reading Quran in detail
is, that I have become more patient.
Samina: You have become calm? Sarah: Yes calm and more patient.
I don't get angry now
Now I have control over myself.
There are a lot of things that I have learnt
And because of that I have changed a lot.
I haven't even read half of Quran yet.
Gradually you will read it
And find new meanings
And will understand it better.
You are young now.
Samina: Where were you born? Sarah: In Madina.
We are four siblings and we all were born in Madina.
How?
My mother is from Lebanon and
My father is from Pakistan. They both met in Saudi Arabia.
They got married there. Both had gone to perform Umrah.
My father used to live in Saudia.
He was an offset printer there.
They both met. My father liked my mother.
He sent a marriage proposal.
And after one and a half year they got married.
Then me, my two sisters and
One brother were born there.
We lived for ten years in Madina. I was ten when we came to Pakistan.
Who is the eldest one?
Eldest one is my brother, Hamza.
Then my sister Ayesha, both have one year difference.
Then me and then Noor, my sister.
So, Ayesha doesn't do any job?
My mother was not feeling well.
She died four months ago.
I am so sorry.
Ayesha did Hotel management.
So she left her studies and job
and started to take care of my mother.
Mom had cancer.
She isn't doing anything now.
After her death,
me and Noor has continued the work.
Ayesha will do it too now.
Whatever she wants to do.
Samina: What does your brother do? Sarah: He is studying.
He wants to become an actor.
I asked him to first complete his studies
Because I wasn't able to continue
My studies. I gave an advice to my siblings
to complete their studies.
Because I think you can't rely on acting.
I think Prime Minister does not take that much salary
But I wish
I could continue my studies.
It was my mother's wish too.
You can study anytime.
Exactly and I will continue my studies
I want to study acting
I want to study about my profession.
How did you use to live?
Your mother was from Lebanon and father was Pakistani.
And how do you speak Urdu so well.
My parents used to talk in Arabic language.
But then we came to Pakistan
And attended Pakistani Schools
And started to speak Urdu
Better than Arabic
My father is a Pathan
And dad speaks Pushto language too.
How many languages do you speak?
I don't speak Arabic and Pushto.
I regret that, if only my mom would
teach me how to speak Arabic.
Which language did you use to speak to your mother?
English and Urdu.
Samian: Did she know Urdu? Sarah: Yes.
Because my grandmother was born in Lebanon
But her parents were from Pakistan.
So mom had a link with Pakistan.
She knew Urdu and
We talked in Urdu.
In my home, my mother
Always, you know here everyone favors
Boys more than girls,
but we were three
and mom taught us
that girls should be stronger
and independent.
If they get married
No one can hurt them
They should be that much strong
to run the house
A girl should be stronger emotionally too.
So she always
wanted her daughters
to be strong.
When you all sat together at
The dining table what did you talk about?
Our family was
Fun loving.
My parents never
Scolded us or talked loudly
In front of us.
When someone talks in
A harsh and loud way
We used to discuss these things like
"Mama did you see
How are they talking."
Just imagine, my parents
Never scolded us or talked in a loud voice
Mom's angry looks were enough for us.
Samina: They never scolded you? Sarah: Never.
There is no question of getting beaten up then?
It was impossible.
Only mom's angry look was
Enough and we would feel scared from that look.
My parents had a way to stop us
From being naughty.
Father never scolded us that
what have you done?!
He kept quiet and by his
Facial expression we would know that he was angry.
It meant that don't do it again.
If you do it again then the reaction will come.
And mom used to give us angry looks.
We all were naughty
There was no major age
difference between my siblings
we had no friends
We four hung out together.
If we did some mischievous things
That look was enough.
Samina: That's it! Look? Sarah: She didn't say anything.
We got scared.
At 09:00 pm we would turn off the T.V.
After then when my parents had slept
So we all siblings
We took the T.V. from TV lounge
To our room and
Watched the T.V
Whole night on mute mode.
Fearing mom dad might wake up.
We'd watch it on mute because we wanted to see T.V.
This is how our childhood was like.
Samina: How very interesting!
How did you do all the naughtiness then? On mute?
Samina: Like riding a bicycle? Or climbing a tree?
Sarah: We have done a lot of naughty things.
Samina: Sneaking out of home at night?
Our parents fell into a lot of trouble because of this!
We had cousins, we were close with.
We spent our childhood together.
They lived in apartments.
So every evening we'd go together for a stroll around the building.
And we'd ring the bell for a specific house.
An aged couple lived there.
We'd do it every day.
We did this for like 3 years.
After 3 years
You can't imagine it…
The uncle brought a rod to our place
And we had a family get together going on.
He barged in saying "Today I won't leave you. I'll kill you."
And he kept banging
At the door.
And we were like that what did we do?
Rang the bell for 3 years only.
I mean only 3 years had passed.
So we have done stuff like this
So yeah…
So you had a fun childhood?
Yes. A lot.
So how was the younger Sarah like?
Apart from being naughty!
I was very shy as well.
I was confident from the beginning and in school too
I participated in everything.
I performed at all kinds of shows in school.
But I was very shy
If someone tried to talk to me, I would be
Very quiet thinking what to say.
It still happens to me.
Although I am very talkative.
Only if someone talks about stuff I like
But I can't handle random conversations
On set, it's usually me and my book
Often people think that I am very rude
Arrogant with a lot of attitude since I don't talk
But in reality I don't like talking much.
With just anyone cuz when you do
You then keep talking.
So I don't talk much and
Don't let other people know me so thoroughly.
I only keep it confined
To a working relationship.
So when did you know that you'll become an actor?
When I did my first project
I did a voice-over.
When I signed my first project,
I thought I couldn't do acting.
It is not my cup of tea.
After that I didn't work for 2 years. Bari Aapa was my first project.
For a channel.
And then the 2 years gap.
After which I decided I always wanted to be an actor.
I did want it.
But I did comprehend it at first.
From school to my college life
I had always been interested in such stuff.
I did it in school as well.
I like doing it
So when I did not work for 2 years
I missed it a lot.
After doing only 1 project
I had found a purpose in my life.
Doing it actually made me happy.
So who went first? Noor or you?
I did. Noor is a year younger than me.
And she has wanted to do this since forever.
She knew she wanted to become an actor.
But I never wanted to admit it.
I thought I'd get into fashion designing.
But I was always interested in Art.
Noor and Ayesha are both good at sketching.
They will be able to make your sketch in 10 mins.
So the three of us always
Had this artistic side.
We had to do something like this.
What kind of things do you collect?
What do you buy? What do you collect?
Do you have a secret place in the house?
Where you hide your things?
Samina Ji, I like to be dolled up.
When I go to market for shopping…
We three can wear Same size of clothes and
Our shoe size is the same too.
So we keep sharing our things.
But when I buy something for myself,
I lock it in my wardrobe.
Because I want to wear it first and
They can take it later.
And they say that you wear our things
Before us so why can't we?
I just want it that way.
I have a fetish for shoes.
I want to buy lots of heels.
And even if
I am travelling around,
I keep buying new shoes.
Make up and watches as well.
Do you buy books?
Yes but not many.
But you do visit bookshops?
Yeah yeah.
If I want to read something I do.
Somebody told me to read poetry.
So I am thinking of buying it.
Because Urdu, when I speak it, is not very clear.
I don't speak it very clearly.
A lot of directors tell me that
I should work upon my intonation.
So I am thinking about buying some
Deeply poetic books and read them.
So now I will. Samina: You won't be able to understand them!
No, I do understand them.
It's not as if I can't understand.
Will buy ones which are a little easier to comprehend.
Like Faiz Ahmed Faiz…
Do you think he is easy to understand? Sarah: Somebody said it's easy Urdu.
Mr. Faiz is not easy at all. Sarah: No? Samina: No, only a few of his poems are.
Anyway, will read and see.
Ok, ok. Let me know when you've
Read him and then I'll ask you.
They tell me to read Urdu newspapers as well.
Samina: Newspaper is easy. Sarah: I think it's boring. Yes, easy but boring.
What do you even read in it?!
News is never boring. News is always very spicy.
When News is being played on T.V. at home
The 4 of us stay in our rooms.
Cuz you know
Already there's a lot going on
One should only stay happy.
See good things, Enjoy the good atmosphere.
We just try to stay happy.
What kind of films do you see?
Can I tell you something?
My family calls me an alien as I don't watch any films.
You like acting and you don't watch movies?
If I go to cinema to see a film
I come out after 15 mins.
I can't sit for 1 or 2 hours.
How can one do it?!
But at home I do like watching horror movies.
So me and my sister Ayesha
We sit together at night to watch horror movies. Samina: Don't you feel scared?
We do. And I feel
Scared the most but then I enjoy
It a lot too.
I have just done a horror
Project recently as well.
Samina: Really? Pari? Sarah: No.
Samina: What is it called? Sarah:It's Belapur ki Dayan on Hum Television.
I am playing the dayan.
I am possessed by a witch.
I had a lot of fun during it.
Whatever I had seen I experimented in it.
It was very interesting.
I want more of such projects to be made
And I want to be a part of them.
I want to play the witch again.
I enjoyed it a lot.
They suspended me from a crane, put me inside a well.
They made amazing scenes where
The witch is glued upside down to the wall.
At all times. Such were the scenes.
Showed the concept and the
Way of a ghost talking.
I tried that too.
So did you change your voice?
Yes. Samina: What kind of sound did you make?
Whenever the witch possessed her, she'd scream.
So I made up that sound where she would be screaming.
If she wasn't possessed, then she would talk normally.
So when she is possessed what kind of sound did she make?
The sound is normal but when
She becomes possessed it becomes loud.
So that meant that the witch had come?
And the expression would change, eyeballs becoming bigger.
So have you ever done this with your sisters?
Did you scare them like this?
When the shoot was underway and I had practiced for like 10 to 15 days
On becoming a witch
Samina: Did you practice at home? Sarah: No, not at home.
My siblings wouldn't let me be serious.
They would just make fun out of it.
Practice happens on the set.
So when I was done with it
And I had mastered the witch act
At home I used that screaming sound
And my sibling were like
Are you mad? We will throw you out of the house!
I thought that if they were scared then
This might just be successful.
So I was very happy that my siblings were scared.
So it was like a litmus test?
Yes it was.
Cuz they never take me seriously anyway.
So what did little Sarah dream about?
You said you were shy!
Since childhood I have been
Very mature.
I was always like that.
I wanted to be something and I knew it.
My mother worked in Emirates.
I had thought that I would be someone like her.
I would buy my own house.
I would gift a car to my mom.
And my younger sister.
I love Noor a lot.
I keep telling her that I am her mom.
And you are a middle child?
Yes, yes. Noor is younger than me.
But I have a lot of attachment to her.
So I tell her that you are my daughter
And I am your mum.
And people often wonder like why!
So is there any sibling rivalry between you two?
No no.
Do you ever get jealous?
Never ever.
People often asked me
That you and your sister both are working
And if your sister is casted instead of you
What will your reaction be!
I tell them that no one would be happier than me.
Nothing would mean
More to me if you give my sister
Some work instead of me.
What I feel for myself, I feel for them to.
I think the same way for them as I do for myself.
What is your brother's place in this trio?
My brother
He is one of the gang too?
Yes yes. He totally is.
My brother is not like brothers usually are.
No restrictions!
So he is not your father's second in command?
No, no. Not at all.
Instead we keep teasing him.
Asking him to take us out.
We will also go check out people!
He keeps saying what kind of sisters are you!
He calls us jungle sisters!
Brothers in our society
Expect the sisters to
Do house chores for them
But it's the opposite with us.
We keep asking him to do stuff.
There's no difference between him and us.
We are all alike.
My parents never fostered that difference.
Yes, indeed. They never did.
Between a son and a daughter.
They said you are daughters so you should be stronger.
And they never burdened my brother
With any kind of responsibilities either.
Like people in the society do.
My parents always taught
Us to never be dependent on our brother.
Don't you have your own hands?!
You can do all on your own.
So what do you plan to do in future?
I will continue acting
Because it happens
To be my
First love.
Samina: And studies too? Sarah: It's on my list.
And I want to become a producer.
Samina: What?
I never want to be a director.
I think it's the world's toughest job.
Instead I want to be a producer.
I want to make my own projects.
I want to work with new people.
I want to take new people in.
I want to introduce new people.
And work better. Work on a bigger level. On international level.
So much of the amazing work is being done already.
So I want to do something similar after a few years.
Are you doing any films?
I don't want to do any film. Samina: Why?
No plan of it. I am interested in dramas.
I have not thought about films yet.
If in the future I feel like it
A project is too good
Then I will
Definitely do it.
But for the time being, no plans yet.
Samina: Ok, but why?
Everyone wants to do films.
Sarah: I don't know. Samina: You're not ready yet.
I am not ready yet plus a few requirements
They need are something I might never be able to fulfill.
I gave an audition for a film
Where they asked "How short can you go?"
In clothes.
I was like, full sleeves?
Shouldn't be back less and no deep necklines.
I won't do any knee-length either.
I am like that.
I don't mind if people are doing it.
But I have a few rules in my life.
I don't want to forgo such things,
So if I come across something which is o.k. for me
And for them as well, then
I will definitely do it.
How did you make so many rules at such a young age?
I don't know why…
Samina: From childhood? Sarah: I have always been like that.
Noor would say you are so boring.
You are so bad; you don't play either.
What do you keep thinking about?
You just imagine that in my classroom
I was the tallest and I would sit at the back.
So I would just sit there and think quietly.
What would I do when I get back home?!
I would iron my sister's uniform too.
I was very conscious about punctuality.
And if Noor wouldn't get up, I would go on my own.
Even now, If my call time on set is at 9
I will be there at exact 9.
I am very punctual about work.
I inherited that thing from my dad.
My dad is punctual.
So I was always focused
About what to do in my life.
What I have to do or become.
I am very punctual
I was good in studies.
I used to get high scores in school every year.
My sister was duffer.
She wasn't good in studies.
She never knew what was happening in school and
asked me to inform her about school.
I was like that.
From the childhood
I grew with same thoughts
And I was mature.
Samina: So you want to become a producer? Sarah: Yes.
Samina: And you will do a lot of work. Sarah: A lot of work
Whatever I will be able to give to my industry
I will give it.
Because that industry made me
What I am today.
This is my interest.
I have been working since five years.
And I took a two year break
After first project.
And then I decided that
I will do acting
that day I decided to become a producer.
I will make a film. Maybe I will
Not cast myself in that film
I will do something at high level
Like our producers are doing.
They are doing great job
nationally and internationally.
I will not only be an actor.
This is the plan.
Did Sarah fall in love?
It happens to everyone.
It isn't necessary to fall in love with a human
You can fall in love with your work.
My first love is my mom.
No one can match that level.
Even if he is my husband
Or someone else.
My second love is my father. No one can reach that level too.
My family then
After my family
That will be one whom I will marry
Is there anyone in your life?
Sarah: Yes. Samina: Is there?
But I don't like to talk about it because I don't know what
to say: that I am in a relationship?
I will tell that
When I am in Nikkah
Because my family
Doesn't like this
What will I say that I have a boyfriend?
After my mother's death
Someone told me
Whatever your mother taught you
Now you have to take care of her honor.
So, I always keep one thing in My mind that now the responsibility is on me.
If I do something wrong
People will blame my mom.
If someone says anything
About my mom,
I can't bear it.
I take steps carefully
I take projects very carefully
And I also
Teach my sister that
Whatever you do
keep in your mind our house's environment
If my family doesn't like to talk about it then I wouldn't talk.
So he didn't propose you?
The one who is in your life?
Everything had happened. My baba and mama knew it
When my mom died he was with her
5 hrs before her death
And mama was very happy
She was in hospital
And after mama's death
My life changed completely.
It became easier
Things were very complicated before
We were dependent on mama
Knew nothing. After that we knew everything
5 minutes after the death
I wasn't crying, I was consoling
My siblings that it was good for her
She was in pain
After 10 minutes of death
I immediately realized that
Yesterday we were planning for going on a dinner
And now we are praying for her forgiveness
We have never planned that what will happen to us. When we die. Why do we have to recite Darood Pak for 1 lac times?
For forgiveness. We have never thought
To do good deeds for our forgiveness
And eternal life
There I realized that
This life is just a test
You will get reward in after life Nothing's here So you understood death?
Totally!
Right after my mother's death
I realized it.
My siblings didn't realize it
I explained it to them
This life is nothing
We hurting others in our
Race of succeeding
We are doing very wrong
If we die tomorrow
And there would be no one to pray for you
Then what will happen?
We are now praying for mama for forgiveness from the wrath of grave
I was thinking we have never planned for this
In fact we should be planning for it
what Allah has made us for
What will happen when our eternal life will start?
Never thought about it
With this thought
I stay happy and I try that
My assistant, my helpers at home, driver
Or anyone, they will never get hurt
Because of me
I don't want this to happen that
If I day tomorrow so
There will be no one
To pray for me
I should be having
My enough good deeds
That when I go the Lord after death
I would proudly say that
I have done my best
So I realized this
After mama's death
That this life of ours
Is a test
If you become a good or a bad person
You will harvest what you have sown
And what is success?
Success is happiness
I have never like I said earlier
For success I have never
Hurt anybody
Or cut anybody's way
For achieving it
When you are good and have a clear vision
Of proceeding forward
Following the right path
And not crushing anyone else
And your intentions are good
Intention matters a lot
If your way is just then there is no force on earth
That can stop you from achieving what you deserve
God never wastes your hard work
never
But this world
Is filled with different people?
I know but if we see the world as bad
Then we will live our life according to that
Then we are also bad
Allah has said that you
are responsible for your deeds
You will not be judge
As if other person was wrong and you did wrong too
Then you are justified, no.
If you are good
Your intentions are pure
And you are passionate, I am
Very passionate about my work
Then ALLAH definitely
Helps you at any condition
If you do hard word
It never goes wasted
If you'll find short cuts to move forward
Then you'll get a temporary
Success.
Who will take its guarantee
That it will last forever
And what's failure?
Failure…
You learn from failure
Failure is a kind of good thing
You won't succeed without failure
If I want something
And I get it at first attempt
Then I won't struggle anymore in life
Then for me life is easy
And if I don't get something
And faced failure
Then I will try again
And that struggle is
Hardwork!
That make you realize the worth of your work
You don't value the things you get so easily
When you want to achieve something
You struggle for it and face a lot of failure
And when you achieve it that's the fruit of your hard work.
According to my opinion, failure is a good thing
And fame?
Fame..ummm
Fame is a bonus
Everybody wants fame
in the world
If you meet a taxi driver, He'll say to you
ma'am could you arrange my scene in a drama?
Fame actually is that
People get to know you,
People talk about you
Thanks to ALLAH, we have been
Given respect wherever we go
This thing attracts people that
When you pass from somewhere
Obviously fame attracts me too and I desire it too
I desire success as well. when I pass from somewhere
People would say oh this is Sarah
This feeling…you know
It's a very unusual feeling
The feeling is different
You feel like you're king of this world
Everybody knows you
You are going on a shopping
And get concession over there
Why?... you know
We should thank ALLAH for blessing us
It's great honor for us
And we take it for granted
That we are stars!
I thank ALLAH a lot.
I offer my prayers five time a day
I am in a way very religious
Because from family, since childhood
It was the routine that we have to recite Quran after tuition
I was very naughty. Qari Sahib's feet were dark
And I would tease him by asking
"are you wearing black or these are your feet?"
I still remember it
He would really get annoyed
And would say "these are not socks for God's sake they are my feet"
It's very funny
Because we do a lot of things in our childhood
Right? Teasing people and annoy them
Or would say something
But it was fun.
In fact it's fun even now
You shouldn't hurt someone with your teasing
You are not hurting someone nor saying anything bad about them
You are only joking and you can do that
Nobody's getting hurt because of it
Have you ever tried doing a practical joke?
And regret doing it afterwards that what have I done?
Umm…no
Done nothing like that ever?
Kids usually do with teachers or
Especially with Qari Sahib
I have done this a lot that
When our yearly reports cards would come
My sister used to get fail
I mean she would get very low marks
So it used to require parents' signatures
Now who will tell them
And what should we do about monthly tests
So, one time my principal caught me
That these are not your
Parents' signatures
Then I got punishment
And they called my parents too
Then they did the Parents Teacher Meeting
They complained about me
And I was like I am such a good student don't scold me
Scold my younger sister
Because of her I did that
Sarah: I've really teased the auto rickshaw drivers Samina: The one who take you to the school?
No randomly.
I used to go in bus for school
We are quite a number of cousins
And we all usually
Travel in a same rickshaw
Telling the driver a very far away destination
That would be of approximately 1.5 hours he would say okay
And we would say we'll give you 5 rupees for the trip
And he would say "5 rupees?"
And we'd say yes, let's go now
He would refuse
Then we'd start bargaining with him
And when it'd end
We'd tell him there's a camera
Behind tree. It was a prank
And you'll come on T.V
Then he got excited
Adjusted himself and we told him that on Thursday at 8p.m. you'll come on the show
And he'd be sitting in front of
His T.V and wondering in which world it'd come?
That's what I had done
Many more things like that
And in all our naughtiness, mama was involved with us
Mama was very young.
She was 39 when she died
She got married at the age of 14
She was like a friend
So mama was always involved with us
In our naughtiness
I'll show you mama's picture and you won't guess
That it's mama
Because there wasn't any difference, we look alike
Did you ever cook together?
Like crazily?
Messing everything?
Sarah: yes Samina: like a disaster
Every night when we cousins meet up
We'd do new experiments
Parents would go to sleep
And we have to cook something for ourselves
Like making a paratha and kneading the dough
If you don't know how to dough it is all over
My paratha is very famous in the family
My cousins call my paratha 'biscuits'
I ask them why?
I've made such a good paratha
They get very crispy
I do not know why?
Samina: Dough must be hard Sarah: my cousins when visit me
They'll ask where are biscuits Sarah?
My cousins and my brother when wanted
To hang out late at night
Up to 3 4 in the morning
I'd be usually asleep
So they'd wake me up ask me for food
So I'd wake up in the morning
And make those biscuits like parathas and tea for them
Do you cook?
Yes Samina: do you cook well?
Umm only what I like
Samina: and what's that?
I like vegetables a lot, I don't like meat very much
So I cook vegetables
I also cook chicken
But dishes like biryani, pulao and qourma
I cannot cook these
Samina: Can you do baking?
My mom used to do very good baking
And she even used to make food in the oven
Me and both my sisters we could bake
Cookies, bread, cake everything
After every 2 days we would bake
Samina: what fun! Sarah: yeah
Brownies or anything we wanted to eat we'd bake it
Who is the fashion designer among the sisters?
And the stylists and fashion conscious?
Actually we three are
We three have our own individual styles
I can't carry Ayesha's style
Neither can Noor
Noor and Ayesha are quite identical
People usually think they are twins
Their hair resemble a lot. Have you seen Noor?
I have worked with Noor
Their hair, eyes, features all are alike
Noor is Masha ALLAH
Very tall. She is 5'7"
And I am a bit shorter than her
So our styles are different
We three are our own fashion designers
Who is interested in Interior?
Ayesha and I are very much interested in interior
What colours do you choose?
We always try to go for nude colors
We decorated our house before mama's death
Refurnished it, all before mama's eyes
The color we used was beige
With wooden floor
It's maintenance is very tough
Yes
The walls are white because we like them white
No colored walls
It looks spacious
I prefer big windows
In my house
It will lit the whole house
Always brighten up with the sunlight
We never close windows with curtains
What advice of your mother
Took you forward in life
Or you are still holding on to it?
Look…mama what she wanted,
And the way she wanted
To see her daughters
Happy, successful
In whatever they are doing
Or even if they are not doing
She wanted us to be happy
So I am trying to achieve all that
So that my mom would be proud of me
I achieved what I should have
I continued my studies
I became what I wanted to be
I want a successful life in every way
A happy married life
A good house, my own life
I would love to marry
Only to became bride or to have a household
To have a complete household
We get the chance to become brides
I'm interested in…
First thing I'll have twins
Okay so you want twins
I have already asked Allah
That give me twins
Nothing else
And I am a
Very domestic sort of a person
People usually think I might not know how to cook or do laundry
But I love to do household chores
Interior, kitchen duties
I want that after marriage
I have my own house
Where I am the boss. My house my rules
Where I cook for my husband
And make it ready before
He comes
Get ready for him
With garlands in hair and wait for him?
Yes I love to be ready Samina: who will go to work then?
I will go to work Samina: okay so you will balance everything
Even now I do everything
Like after mama
I had a lot of responsibilities on me
Ayesha used to look after mama
She devoted her life for her
She is the youngest so she doesn't do other things
I used to cook food
Nobody in our house
Likes to eat cook made food
Baba likes homemade food
So I would make food before
going on to the shoot
And I would bring the food with me on shoot as well
I would cook a separate meal for shoot
When I come back from shoot at night
I would make food
Put it in fridge and then take it with me
To the shoot in the morning
And then eat with everybody
See there is nothing in life
That you can't manage
It's not like you can't do anything at home
Because you are working
Even if you are working 24/7 you can still manage to do other things
I can along with work
Manage home and all its responsibilities
With very ease
Do you get angry?
Never
Samina: Not at all? Sarah: I don't have anger in me
If I could ever get angry
If for example I got angry on you
My extreme reaction would be that I'll keep myself silenced
I won't talk to you
And the reason is that
I don't want to say anything bad
Which I will regret later
Do you try to apologize first or not? Sarah: right away
If I have done something wrong
I immediately try to apologize
Samina:Do you conciliate immediately? Sarah: yes!
If I don't then It would pinch me and I won't be able to sleep
I would regret and think over it
That I should not have done it
I try not to do any such thing
But if I do I apologize for it
I don't feel any hesitation in saying sorry
Even if it wasn't my fault
And my apologizing will make things better
So I will say
When are you getting married?
Wedding…umm
Let's see. My sister, Ayesha is getting married
This year Insha Allah
After her marriage I will think about it
This is so that you
Can do more work and establish yourself
Or it doesn't matter?
No, it doesn't matter
You can work after your marriage as well, if you want
Things can be managed
It might be possible that
I will be producing projects with him
Insha Allah after Ayesha's wedding
I'll do mine.
I wish you all the best.
