"..."In the context of Pakistani dramas, especially for women, the leads are boring. You're either crying, or somebody is inflicting violence upon you – which is not boring but it’s a very one-tone role....there are not many opportunities for character-based acting, and to play a leading role, one has to fit into "a very good-looking mould."
