Mahria Khan spoke with a news channel about how there is no difference in acting on the big and small screens. According to her, the difference lies in the script as a series tells a story over a period of several weeks while a movie conveys it in a few hours. “If I have to put forward an intense performance and have to convince my audience that my heart has been broken, I don’t get another chance to convey this in a film, while in a drama the story and character arc is different,” the actress said. ‘If I have to put forward an intense performance and have to convince my audience that my heart has been broken, I don’t get another chance to convey this in a film, while in a drama the story and character arc is different’ Mahira said she never wanted to become a VJ and was always drawn to acting. “Since childhood, I used to always think that one day I will be on the big screen and have billboards.” Mahira Khan also spoke of recent criticism, saying she was an artist and was used to this.
