Pakistani actress Iqra Aziz, one of the most celebrated names in the drama industry, has always been known for her bold and passionate personality. But in recent interviews, she revealed that becoming a mother completely changed her from the inside.
Iqra openly shared that before having her son Kabir with husband Yasir Hussain, she was emotionally reactive and quick-tempered. She revealed she used to be quarrelsome, and her friends were well aware that she was quite talkative and prone to argumentation.
But motherhood softened her. She said that motherhood had instilled a great deal of patience in her, adding: “Seeing the activities of my son, I realise that now I can put up with anything.”
Balancing a thriving career while raising a child has not been easy. Iqra shared that she started working after Kabir was barely one month old and often felt mom guilt when leaving him behind. Her mother reassured her, saying she didn’t need to be hard on herself because the career she had worked so hard for was worth protecting.
Iqra has also stated that dropping Kabir off at school every morning is her first and foremost priority, something she told her team before joining any new project. Her fans praise her for being real, grounded, and unapologetically herself, both as an actress and as a mother.
