Saima Qureshi, a veteran actress and a familiar face on Pakistani television for decades, is once again in the spotlight for her bold views. Known for raising her three sons as a single mother, she has often spoken openly about the struggles of divorce and parenting. Over time, her opinions on topics like women’s financial independence and men’s right to remarry have sparked heated debates online.
In her latest appearance on the FHM podcast, Qureshi revisited some of her past remarks and offered fresh thoughts on today’s rising divorce rates. Speaking from her own experience, she said that the older generation needs to rethink some long-standing attitudes if they want to help young couples build stronger marriages.
Sharing her perspective, Saima Qureshi said that after a girl gets married, her mother should avoid being overly involved in her marital issues. “Don’t pamper her too much or push her to leave home over small problems,” she explained.
