Coming from a Muslim background, I faced criticism for joining showbiz but my father supported me like a rock: Imlie actress Sumbul Touqeer Khan

MUMBAI: TellyChakkar.com is back with an interesting update from the world of television.

Star Plus’ show Imlie is winning the hearts of the audience. The show is doing pretty well on the BARC charts and has been securing a place in the TOP 5 most viewed shows on television across the channels. (Read here: Like Imlie, actress Sumbul Tauqeer Khan was also raised by a SINGLE PARENT post her mother and father’s divorce)

The show has young actress Sumbul Touqeer Khan essaying the titular role.

Well, Sumbul belongs to a Muslim family from Delhi. On being asked about the reactions she received for working in the entertainment industry, she said, “Coming from a Muslim background, I did face criticism from the society as they felt that my sister (who’s also an actress) and I shouldn’t join showbiz. They often have misconceptions about the industry and hence feel it isn’t safe for young girls like us. But I would like to talk about the efforts that my father has put in to be the wind beneath our wings. He has supported us like a rock. It is because of his belief in us and our craft that we are able to make a little mark in the industry. He always has complete faith in our work.”
