She is among the Pakistani stars who worked in mainstream Bollywood and she was able to win the audience and the critics alike.
Zeba Bakhtiar was a guest on Maliha Rehman’s show and shared that she is grateful to have worked in a Raj Kapoor film and the experience was nothing short of iconic. She however was very conscious of what she will sign in Bollywood. She was offered 16 films post Henna which she liked but turned down as they would have a scene or a song that she will not agree with. She did not want to do a rain song in see through saaris thus ended up turning down those films.
