Haya Zia, now a well known name in the television and fashion industries, started her career in 2011 when she started modelling in Karachi “I remember the day when I faced the camera for the first time. It was a humid day in May but I was shivering when the director called action,” she said while talking about her career in an exclusive interview with Pakistan Today.
A 24-year-old resident of Gulistan-e-Jauhar, she says that she is not inspired by anyone and wants to forge an identity of her own. “In a few months I have made a mark in the industry and I am hopeful that in the future too I will continue down this path, you will hear my name from every nook and corner of the country.
Talking about her past, she said she graduated privately and started working in a private bank while she was still studying. “We are four sisters and one brother and my father runs a small business. I wanted to share his financial burden as a son would,” she said.
“While working at the bank, I got offers from various production houses. As I was fond of modelling I responded to some offers after which I did several shows as a model. I am currently working in many drama serials. Some of these dramas were aired in the last few days and audiences will see me in other serials soon,” she added.
Elaborating on the projects she is currently involved in, she said: “Initially, I did fashion shows for a private modelling firm. Then I was offered commercials by Thomas Fernandez. Since then I have appeared in advertisements for several products.”
She said that working as an assistant director at Venus Corporate for several months boosted her self-confidence.
She is currently in a contract with ANB Productions for performing in serials. The audiences will see her in the lead roles in some of these soaps, while in others she will perform supporting roles.
To a question about the showbiz industry, she replied that while there is number of people in who do not encourage youngsters, there are those who are not only very encouraging, but also help out the new people.
