Did you stumble upon your career or was it something that you always wanted?

I have always aspired for something along these lines – international mergers and recognition of our culture have been my goal! Braahti – my textile brand, was promoted beyond borders since 2004 and the same goes for Shaan-e-Pakistan and all projects under this umbrella including my upcoming edition SEPMA2019 which I am very excited about!

What was your “aha!” moment?

After the Pulwama attacks, when we were informed about the Indian sentiments, and for all parties for reversing decisions and invitation to perform at SEPMA was one of that kind of moment recently. I had a moment of great insight and discovery. Getting out of a crisis situation is itself a great learning experience, and has always made me more passionate than ever about exhibiting local culture at SEPMA. Did you ever consider or experience a career change?

To diversify always however Never as a primary goal as what i am currently doing is not a career; it’s a dream and a vision and it’s safe to say that I am living it. Creativity drives me and the culture and tradition of Pakistan have been my inspiration. I am very lucky to have made a career out of my passion and I am honored to be serving the nation by sending out a positive image of the prolific heritage of Pakistan.

What does nobody tell you about being the boss?

The downside is that there is hardly room for mistakes, because an error can shake your entire team and reputation, not just you – meaning that the stakes are very high for the boss.

Name on boss lady that you admire and how she still inspires you?

Oprah Winfrey, for her struggle from a humble beginning to where she is now. I love her spirit – how she is so unapologetically herself and continuously inspires others to be the same.

Describe a day in your life.

I wake up very early. Begin my day with meditation and a healthy breakfast to fuel my day. Next, I run through my emails, the newspaper and then jot down my tasks for the day. The day is spent delegating and evaluating tasks and learning from my peers. The day ends with an assessment of how many tasks I was able to accomplish, a warm cup of tea and my favorite read.

"TO ME BOSSLADY IS SOMETIMES THE BOSS, SOMETIMES A TEAM PLAYER, BUT ALWAYS FIERCE AND A DREAMER!"

When was time you felt completely discouraged and how did you push through it?

The current Indo-Pak situation had left me really discouraged as its since my past 5 seasons; i have always fought it strong however this time we had to make some decisions. Shaan-e-Pakistan is now going ahead without cross border talent and will not be cancelled. My efforts and energy will be redirected to showcasing Pakistani talent solely and giving our super talented artists a collaborative celebration to perform at SEPMA.

What was the best advice that your mentor gave you?

“If you’re going to be in the room, be useful.” This has stuck with me forever. Even if it means silently observing and taking notes, everything’s a lesson, and even if your contribution is meager, it’s better than nothing.

What are the top 3 things you cherish in your life?

My relationships, health and of course, Shaan-e-Pakistan.

What is #1 thing that is yet to be ticked off your bucket list?

Getting Arijit Singh and Atif Aslam to collaborate in Pakistan

Complete this sentence: To me, a #BossLady is…”

Sometimes the boss, sometimes a team player, but always fierce and a dreamer!

What did you learn from your biggest failure?

Failure is unavoidable. I have encountered monumental failures throughout my life but one thing they couldn’t hamper was my resilience.

Failure has been the best coach, for it has taught me that it is not the end of the road, it has made me thankful for the blessings I have, has made me redefine my priorities in life; shuffle things around to make room for what’s important and has strengthened my faith in the higher

power!

Which world leader would you most like to have dinner with?

That would be the late Benazir Bhutto. She was the first woman to head a democratic government, her fearless campaigning and endless struggle are unrivalled. Yet it is not just politics that her legacy is limited to. For me, she will be remembered most of all for her unapologetic attitude to womanhood. Benazir was one leader who did not give into the hyper masculinity so common of her times.

What advice would you give to young girls out there who have dreams and goals like yours?

When this notion was conceived, it seemed impossible. I felt like no one around me believed in my vision – people felt it was long catch.

But I never stopped believing in my dream or my ability to be able to achieve my dreams. So my advice to young, aspiring girls would be – even if you’re the only person believing in your dream that is enough! Channel your energy and focus it towards your goal. Hard work and persistence never goes to waste.

Where did you choose to go and why?

Charming, exotic and full of history, the city of Galle, located on the southern coast of Sri Lanka had the perfect blend of European history, which when mixed with Sri Lankan culture and background characters sets the perfect backdrop of the Image Traveler - surreal, natural and infused with a new tradition this time!

planes, trains & automobiles

Travelling is great fun. You get to explore a new place, meet new people and get wiser! We want to know more and will share with you exciting travel stories from a few special people in our section, planes, trains & automobiles!

What is the most delicious meal that you tried?

The most delicious meal is definitely Hoppa. It’s a whole in a wall kinda restaurant but the local Sri Lankan food is what energized the exhausted team at the end of our first day. Delicious local rice, curry and a hoppa!

Tell us what the most exciting thing you did during your trip was I’d been imagining the local Sri Lankan dancers for a while (courtesy YouTube) but when they actually came and got going, man did they make some noise! All the guests and the people passing by the hotel popped over and were curious to find out what on earth was going on. Lucky for us, the shoot didn’t get shut down as people were actually enjoying their stunts!

travel diaries

What are the top ten places to visit?

Top ten places from my recee in the heat of Galle: Many, many sights in the fort, quirky cafes (Peddlars inn), lighthouse, smaller street side craft stores, Spa Ceylon (an absolute MUST), Isle of Gelato, All Saints Church, Clock tower.

Outside the fort you must see the Japanese Peace Pagaoda.

Don’t forget to watch the sunset, local stilt fisherman and definitely the local Sri Lanka fire dance!
