When the interview host asked why the actress said no, Fatima Effendi replied:
Anees Bazmee called me and praised my drama serial, and asked me to work in his film. I asked him about the story and the character I’d portray, but I refused to sign the movie because it required me to play a bold character. I didn’t want to be a source of shame for my family and country, as the role required me to wear bold outfits and perform uncomfortable scenes.
The actress further shared:
I’ve never faced any restrictions from my family about working in Bollywood movies, but I’ve always known my limits. That’s why I would never do anything that may be shameful for my family or me. I may be from the entertainment industry, but I’m always careful when selecting my wardrobe.
On the work front, Fatima Effendi was last seen playing the role of ‘Emaan’ in Geo Entertainment’s Main Agar Chup Hoon opposite Adeel Chaudhry and the character of ‘Ujala’ in Geo Entertainment’s Munafiq.
