Last month, the actor took an extraordinary step to visit a marketplace in Bahawalpur by wearing a burqa and taking an auto-rickshaw ride along with other crew members for not being recognised by people.

The Super Star actor was seen riding a rickshaw and visiting different stalls at the market. Though she had tried her best to hide her identity by covering half of her face with the niqab, Mahira was still recognisable due to her unique eyes and overall aura.

The visit took place a few days ago as Mahira also posted one of her pictures wearing a burqa in an Instagram post. However, the picture couldn’t get much attention due to the absence of context.
