Saying it like Saba


The Hindi Medium star is known for her unapologetic personality and say-it-like-it-is attitude towards everything from relationships to her career

In a recent appearance on a local TV show, actor Saba Qamar shed light on her social media persona, as well as her experience in the entertainment industry

Saba is known for taking on unconventional roles, those that challenge stereotypes around women, and has received an equal amount of criticism for her opinions as well

Speaking about her reluctance to give interviews, Saba spoke about how she feels more at ease on her own platform

The actor shed light on how having her own channel enables her to bypass filters that you have to respect when speaking on other platforms

“On my own show, I don’t need to have a filter

I say what I want to say

I am not scared of repercussions on behalf of the channel or the people involved

That is Saba Qamar’s channel, and that is where I openly say what is in my heart,” explained Saba

The actor added later on, “I show what I feel

You should say what the truth is

If people don’t like it, it’s their problem

” On her YouTube channel, Saba shares a variety of videos dealing with a vast array of topics including but not limited to the toxicity of desi marriage culture

In an episode titled, ‘Breaking the Stereotypes’, Saba addressed the motivations behind bringing a bahu into a desi family

“The problem with our society is that there are two types of families that approach daughters for their rishtas – the conservatives and the liberals

But both of them want a maid in the form of a daughter-in-law who, if educated, can earn for the family and if uneducated, can work for the family,” she elaborated in the video

Speaking about social media, the actor shared that she does not like to put too much thought into what she posts

“Isn’t it beautiful that if you have any thoughts about uploading something, you do so without hesitation?” asked the Baaghi star

Saba also spoke about her experience working with the late Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan

She explained that she had loved his work since she was a child and that she had always wanted to work on a project with the actor

Recalling her first Eid away from home, on the sets of Hindi Medium in New Dehli, Saba shared a sweet story about her interaction with the actor

“That was my first Eid away from home and I told Irrfan that I wanted Eidi, and he gave me the note you see in the picture

I have that note to this day,” she said while referring to a picture she had uploaded on her Instagram in 2016

She later added, “ I even said this during an interview, that if I am ever offered an Indian film I would want to work with Irrfan Khan

I was very lucky since the first opportunity I got was with him

And I’ve learned a lot from him

” After a comment from the host about her seeming happier back in 2016, as far as the actor’s Instagram page is concerned, Saba shared that she has changed a lot over the past few years

Likening her experience in the industry to that of a traveller, Saba shared, “It doesn’t really stay the same

It’s kind of like travelling

The person who is going on the trip and the person who comes back is not the same

You collect a lot of new experiences and memories

That is what life is like
