Veteran actress Sania Saeed is known for taking on versatile and thought-provoking roles. Currently, she is making waves with her role as ‘Zarghuna’ in Sang-e-Mah<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Unlike the dowdy, docile woman we see her play as ‘Shameem’ in Sang-e-Mar Mar<\/em><\/strong>, we see a horse-riding, self-sufficient, and lone wolf ‘Zarghuna’ in Sang-e-Mah<\/em><\/strong>. Sounds like a daunting woman, no? However, such strong women aren’t as uncommon in tribal areas.<\/p>\n\t\t

In an interview with BBC Urdu<\/a>, the 49-year-old shared how such characters aren’t that unconventional in tribal communities. It’s just that we don’t highlight them as often.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be a pleasure to watch because of the distinct portrayal of a tribal woman, … So it isn\u2019t that unconventional, in retrospect. There are women like Zarghuna in tribal areas but we have developed a comfortable habit of only seeing covered up women who are rather voiceless in such communities.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
