Nida Yasir loves to see Mawra Hocane cry. Yasir told the actress as much when she and her sister Urwa Hocane appeared on her show, where the discussion revolved largely around Mawra’s acting and how she has mastered the art of crying.

Getting straight to the point, the host said, “Mawra came and made herself known for her acting skills, her beauty, her kindness and especially her crying on-screen.” The actress chuckled a little and thanked her.

Naturally, the next question for the older one of the pair – Urwa – was if Mawra had always been one to shed beautiful tears and she confirmed that her sister would get whatever she wanted as soon as she turned on the waterworks. “She was such a pretty kid and when someone that pretty cries, our mom and I, we’d just give in to whatever she was saying two sentences in.” Then, with guns aimed directly at Mawra, Yasir asked how she had come up with her technique, her “crying secret”. The actor answered, “[That’s a] big question, but yeah, you either think about something unpleasant or, if you haven’t experienced something like that, you make something up in your head. That helps me a lot. I just beg my emotions to please come to me properly.”
