Can we just take out some moment to praise this amazing actress? Everytime I see her on TV, I realize how fortunate Pakistan's TV Industry is to have her.
She's outstanding in Azer ki ayegi baraat. And the numerous plays she has done!
Choose your battles wisely.
Not everyone is worth wasting time over.
Bushra is a living legend... there are few female artists of Pakistan that belong in the same category of excellence as her...
funny thing is that when I used to watch her regularly as part of Anwar Maqsood's team with Moin Akhtar on PTV, I mistakenly thought of her as the weak link among these three extraordinary artists. this is not to say that Bushra wasn't great. but I just thought (stupidly) that she wouldn't be as successful without Anwar Maqsood's writing behind her... but I was totally wrong...
she left Anwar Maqsood and Moin Akhtar far, far behind over time. the latter two have completely faded away. and Bushra is not only going strong but has reinvented herself many, many times. she is one of Pakistan's best ever comedians... she is undoubtedly the most classy host we have today who knows how to conduct shows according to their merit. a top actress. a decent writer and even a reasonable singer...
apart from possessing seemingly limitless talents, she is also a wonderful person. never seen her make a petty remark. always encourages and welcomes new, young artists. has a kind word for everyone. seems to be a down to earth person who feels the pain of her surroundings and is very normal and uncelebrity like in that way. all in all, a remarkable person and outstanding artist...
Iqbal Ansari is a very, very lucky man... hope he realizes that... otherwise, I might steal Bushra way from him yet...
btw, one of her great performances that might be off people's radars was in Umrao Jaan Ada. she played one of the important characters in that drama... the drama was brilliant... and of course, Bushra was amazing as usual...
just fyi in case, her fans want to see her play a very different type of character.
Enjoying her in Azer ki ayegi baraat
She's definitely a Pakistan entertainment industry icon!
Looking forward to her Cuckoo's Nest (next play she has written)
Bushra is a living legend... .....she left Anwar Maqsood and Moin Akhtar far, far behind over time. the latter two have completely faded away. ........
hello
yar bushra is a wonderfull artist and I have been a fan of hers ever since she started appearing on TV - she is an equally gifted singer as well.
but lets give due respect to AM and MA.
These two gentlemen are the pillars of Pakistani entertainment industry.I doubt if there is any other living person who is as Versatile as Moin, just see a couple of clips from Loose Talk and you will know what I am talking about, and this is just a small example, Moin's long career is full of gems like these.
Speaking of Anwar Maqsood, again its close to impossible to bring up one name who comes even close. There have been other writers on PTV (lets talk about Satire and comedy for now) who have contributed greatly, like Kamal A. Rizvi, and Ather Shah Khan. But Anwar sahib is in a different class, a class of his own.
Anyway - sorry for going off-track - this is a thread about Bushra
and she is one of my favorites
I like long walks specially when they are taken by people I dont like Mr. James B. (Esq.)
Her acting in Kuch Dil Ne Kaha...when they show her breakdown- it was so real..you can imagine someone suffering the way her character did in the drama. I was left in total amazement.
