You may recognise up-and-coming actress Hira Umer for her recurring roles in web series and TVCs. She got her start on TV by appearing in various TVCs and has proven her acting prowess in a short time with projects such as the web series Ranjish by ABK films and a short film, Sindh Meri Jaan for Voice of Sindh web TV and has not slowed in her drive for success in a field that she considers both, a calling and a choice. Always wanting to be on television, Umer tells MAG how her pursuit to acting began since childhood, “I have wanted to be on screen ever since I was a child. I started acting in school plays during student life and that's how my interest in acting grew stronger.” The young starlet will soon be seen in another short film Wanted by Mohsin Talat, a drama serial Aye Mushte Khaak by Ahsun Talish and in a lead role in her first feature film Udham Patakh by Abu Aleeha. The starlet stepping into the light joins MAG for a quick and fun rapid fire. Here are 60 seconds from her life. Excerpts:
