Mahira Khan, one of Pakistan’s most popular actresses, recently opened up about the possibility of working in Bollywood again. The actress is currently in the United States with Humayun Saeed, promoting their upcoming film Lo Guru. During a public event, Mahira answered questions from fans, and one question stood out—will she return to Bollywood?
Mahira Khan’s Honest and Thoughtful Reply
When asked if she would consider working in Bollywood again, Mahira Khan responded with honesty and grace. She said,
“I think right now, we need to focus on ourselves—on our own industry.”
Mahira explained that she is not someone who believes in cancel culture or complete boycotts of art and culture. Instead, she believes in speaking from a broader perspective. She added,
“I don’t think that’s the right approach. But considering the current situation, emotions are high. Rather than taking strong stances, we should focus on improving our own circumstances.”
Her words reflected both maturity and a deep understanding of the complex relationship between the two neighboring countries.
Why She Feels It’s Time to Focus on Pakistan
Mahira Khan also spoke about the importance of investing in her own country. She said,
“This is your country. It is your safe space. I truly believe we should invest in ourselves and in Pakistan.”
Her statement shows her commitment to strengthening Pakistan’s entertainment industry and creating more opportunities at home. Despite her successful work in Bollywood, Mahira made it clear that her priority is now to support and uplift local talent and productions.

The Bollywood Ban on Pakistani Artists
It’s important to remember that Pakistani artists have not been allowed to work in Bollywood since tensions between the two countries escalated a few years ago. During that time, India even removed Pakistani artists’ names and images from their music albums and film promotions. Mahira, who starred opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Raees (2017), was among the last Pakistani stars to appear in a major Bollywood film before the unofficial ban.
Mahira Khan’s response wasn’t just about Bollywood—it was about growth, unity, and putting Pakistan first. Her message was powerful yet peaceful. She didn’t reject the idea of working across borders completely but reminded everyone of the importance of building something strong at home first.
As always, Mahira Khan continues to impress not only with her talent but with her thoughtful words and dignified presence.
