I ask for their feedback and I am also watching them. There must be our mistakes and some mistakes they make So I feel that Teefa In Trouble. when it will come, what will be the feedback Some will lie that you did a great job and some will say it was okay Are you scared of the reaction? Are you scared in every project? No I am not scared in my dramas. Now I feel that I am confident but not in films. Even if someone's film is coming, like I saw Hareem's Parchi. so I was watching and thinking that I will come on the big screen like this what will people do, will they clap or will they leave during the interval I really wish you luck I hope this film works for you and Ali Zafar Why have you put on this mehndi?

attending weddings now Who said this to you? A lot of people are saying this to
me. How many weddings did you attend in this season? Till now...From December

and I was not free for the entire year. So they kept the dates accordingly and
now the weddings are over Now no more I'll ask this later that do you plan to
marry anytime soon. No not at all So let's rewind. Where were you born? I was
born in Lahore. How many siblings? Two, one me and one a younger brother. Oh
really, you don't have a lot of There were not may girls and boys in your
family.
When I see pictures of other actresses like Sajjal and her sister or
Aiman and Minal Urwa and Mawra. So I think that I wish, I also had a sister with
whom I could click pictures. So just two siblings so who became like the other
one. Did you become like your brother or your brother became like you No nothing
like this he is younger than me but we fight a lot even today. when we sit
together I feel he is wrong, he says I am wrong. We argue a lot and then what I
feel bad is that I scold him a lot How many years younger he is? Five years So
you bullied him a lot. Yes Elder sisters do that I feel angry when someone else
scolds him. Why is someone scolding him, he is my brother No body should scold
him I love you Iffi.
How was the environment of your house? When you were
growing up? Very strict Father used to be like a hitler. he never allowed me to
go out My father's side was very conservative and mother's side was normal like
we all are So Baba said that she will study and then after studying we will
marry her off. So I did my masters and after that I wanted to do a job. I didn't
want to marry right after studying. How was your childhood? Were you naughty?
Yes a lot, even now I am very naughty I am controlling myself while sitting
here. So what types of things you used to do Really strange things. I used to get
naughty anywhere In childhood I used to run away after pressing the door bell
of someone's house And doing dumb calls A lot, this was my favorite thing At
night doing this thing.
Before the cells arrived the phone that you used to dial
then when someone picked up you ran away and then mom and dad asked who called
today I used to say I have no idea. who made this call Even now when there is no
light, I place a tape on the bell and when light comes It start ringing so I
really enjoyed this So were you scolded, were you beaten up? A lot of times No
never from baba but mom slapped me several times. I still remember when I was
young. My mom used to call my father by his name Tanveer. So I was sitting with
them when I said Tanveer and a slap came straight to my face and I couldn't
understand that what was wrong that why did my mom slap me on my face.
so I was told that you have to call your father Baba and not by his name. So how did you get this name Maya I was called Maya from the very start before coming into the industry How ? My name is Maryam but like some families or some parents that if their child is ill, they'll change the name so my mom said to change the name and my dad said no as his mother had kept my name. SO then my nick name became Maya Half people called Maya and half said Maryam to me. So some of my friends They knew Maya So they suggested that the show you are doing, do it with the name Maya. It was not a big thing for me because I was known by both names. I never knew, that slowly Maya will come till here So as a child what did you dream of?
I still dream I dream till now I like dreaming. I have my own fantasy world
where there are no fights. Were there dolls in there? Yes, they are till now. What types of toys were there? I had my dolls with whom I talked I shared my
feelings with them because I had no sister Did you have pets? Yes I had a cat I
have always had cats But with age my other had health issues so that is why the
cats reduced But I feel that I can share my feelings with dolls or in front of
a mirror. So who is in the mirror, Is it Maya? or is it Maryam? Both are the
same, the heart is the same Or is it someone else? No I feel that I What I can
talk with myself I can't talk with anyone else What my heart says.
