Mahira Khan, one of Pakistan's most celebrated stars, was recently recognized by the UK Parliament for her contributions to the arts and her role as a cultural ambassador.

Khan, who first gained fame as a VJ and shot to stardom with the iconic drama Humsafar, has since become a powerhouse in Pakistani cinema and television.

Currently in London filming Love Guru alongside Humayun Saeed, Mahira’s international success and representation of Pakistan on the global stage continue to be a source of national pride.
