She zones out. Anything over 30 seconds, don’t even bother!

Definitely my friends, Ali Rehman and Gohar Rasheed —they are both very entertaining.
What is the weirdest pet name anyone has given you?
I have a lot of weird pet names: my whole A-Level crew called me Lalum, as I was the only girl amongst 30 boys, my father calls me Limta and my mother calls me Heemu.
How many hours of sleep do you get every night on average?
When I am working, around three to four hours as I sleep at around 6:30am. When I am not working, I sleep for 20 hours.

If you could be any other nationality, what would it be?
None. I am a proud Pakistani.

I have never really been punished, but when I was eight years old I ran away from home and so my dada slapped me.
What is the strangest thing a fan has ever done or said to you?
The weirdest thing I have received is a bloody letter — it actually had blood on it. I have had stalkers too.
What is your favourite scene from Dobara Phir Se?
It would have to be the wedding dances.
Who is your favourite style icon?
Audrey Hepburn, I love her style.
Isn’t she making us fall in love with her all over again!
