Renowned television and film actor Zara Noor Abbas, celebrated for her roles in popular TV dramas like Khamoshi, Deewar-e-Shab, and Badshah Begum, recently shared touching moments with her daughter, Noor-e-Jahan, on social media.
Despite her frequent updates, Zara has opted to keep her daughter’s face hidden from view, which has intrigued many fans.
Zara, who is married to actor Asad Siddiqui, welcomed their first child earlier this year. Since then, the couple has shared glimpses of their family life with Noor-e-Jahan.
However, in most of these photos, their daughter’s face is either obscured or not visible.
In a recent Instagram post, Zara explained her decision to protect her daughter’s identity by citing concerns about the “evil eye”—a belief that is prevalent in many cultures, including Pakistan.
She stated, “Not showing your picture to the world anytime soon, because of the evil eye,” and indicated that she plans to continue shielding her daughter’s face from public view for the time being.
The post also featured a heartfelt caption where Zara expressed her deep love and connection with her daughter. She described how becoming a mother has brought new dimensions of emotion and strength into her life, surpassing even the bond she shares with her own parents.
Zara highlighted the lessons of perseverance and courage that her daughter has taught her, emphasizing how motherhood has given her life a new purpose.
Zara addressed her followers, asking them to understand and respect her choice not to reveal her daughter’s face.
She also shared her commitment to authenticity in her posts, noting that she avoids using Photoshop or body editing, as she values and appreciates her natural self.
