After a not so good run with Taana Baana, Alizeh Shah is set to star in drama serial Lekin next. The Tiktoker-cum-actress will be playing Ali Rehman Khan’s love interest.
This is the first time we’ll see the Ehd-e-Wafa starlet and Ali Rehman Khan’s romantic chemistry. The actress made a splash in the drama scene with a supporting role in Choti Si Zindagi at just the age of 18.
Some people still can’t accept her growing up onscreen, from an innocent bubbly teenager to her massive transformation into a ‘rebellious’ woman.
