All those people out there who work can relate to those days when you are so tired that you just want to doze off at the workplace. While most people have calculated working hours and don’t have the option to do so, Pakistani celebrities have such hectic routine and odd working hours that very often they do not even get the time to get proper sleep when they are busy shooting for a project. Most of the shootings are done at night time and the working hours can sometimes be longer than anticipated. Pakistani celebrities like other celebrities in the world work hard to get their projects wrapped up on time which is why there are a lot of celebrities who end up taking a nap on the sets of their shoots. Another reason for this is that they have to wait for long hours for their turn, so it gives them enough free time to take a power nap. Many celebrities have often talked about how important these naps are for them and they have also shared how this sleep deprivation can sometimes lead to sleeping in the most odd of moments and places.
Mahira Khan on the sets of Sadqay Tumhare and during promotions
Mahira Khan posted her picture on social media few years back in which she took a power nap while getting her make-up done. She was so tired that when she closed her eyes to get her make-up done, she actually dozed off for a while. Even such moments of dozing off for a few minutes sometimes give her the energy she needs in order to revitalize herself.
Mahira Khan’s make-up artist Babar Zaheer, who is also her good friend, made this video of her while she took a power nap during the promotions of Superstar. Making a film and then promoting it on different forums can be exhausting which is why even though Mahira Khan was in the middle of these promotions, she slept on the couch. Mahira Khan’s co-workers also call her Mazdoor Khan because once she starts working on a project, she works really hard and would do anything at all that needs to be done in order to assist her team.

Even though Sajal is wearing a heavily embroidered dress but that did not stop her from catching up on her sleep by taking a much-needed power nap.
