2017, the year that heard words like “Nepotism” and “Eugenics” in ways unimaginable and still make headlines, even though the controversy is long gone.
Speaking of nepotism, let’s talk about the Indo-Pak collaborations; we have seen the best and worst. With Fawad Khan, Ali Zafar and Mawra Hocane already seen sharing the screens with Indian actors more leading ladies made it to Bollywood this year.
That’s just it, according to Eastern Eye, a UK-based publication recently announced Mahira Khan and Saba Qamar, hailing from Pakistan, as the top Bollywood debuts of 2017.
Mahira’s first Bollywood performance was opposite the King of Romance himself whereas Saba was seen alongside the multi-talented Irrfan Khan in Hindi Medium.
Although Eastern Eye is a renowned publication, we were surprised to not see Sajal Aly’s name in the list. The 23-year-old actor also made her Bollywood debut this year alongside Sridevi in Mom and delivered an exceptional performance.
