Recently, Hajra Yamin made an appearance in Maliha Rehman’s YouTube show Gloss It. In the one on one session, Hajra Yamin discussed Saba Hameed’s attitude, her brilliant performance and Noor Jahan’s character.
Talking about Saba Hameed, Hajra Yamin said, “I will be very honest, sometimes we think that this particular person is strict but there is a reason behind his/her strictness, maybe they fear others the most and experience the social anxiety, I am saying this in general because I also have social anxiety and people think that I am rude. Also, about Saba Hameed, I mean the talent that she has, the figure that she is, yes she was a bit intimidating and most of my work was with her but it was nice because Musadik was there and he guided everyone throughout”.

Talking about her performance, Hajra Yamin said, “On the set, Saba Hameed was amazing, I mean I used to forget my lines but I have never seen Saba forgetting her lines, she was so good and her on-screen performance is looking much more amplified. She performed it so well and that’s why it looked larger than life on the television, she is brilliant, her tonality was perfect, she didn’t even scream in a single scene”.

Hajra Yamin further said that she could have chosen Sumbul because of the character’s shades if she was given a choice, and she’s quite happy with the character given to her but if she was old then she would have definitely played the character of Noor Jahan because Noor Jahan is so strong, negativity aside, she is such a powerful woman”.
