Life and career



1984–2011: Early life, career beginnings and breakthrough


Saba Qamar Zaman was born on 5 April 1984 into a Sindhi family in Hyderabad, Sindh, Pakistan.[1] She lost her father at a very young age and spent most of her childhood in Gujranwala with her grandmother. She got her early education in Gujranwala, then moved to Lahore to pursue further studies. Her family is settled in Karachi.[2][3]

Qamar appeared in the PTV Home television series Mein Aurat Hoon (2005).[2][4][5] The series was shot in Lahore, and was followed by several classic PTV series including Gharoor, Taqdeer, Chaap, Dhoop Mein Andhera Hai, Kanpur Se Katas Tak, Unbiyaanable and Maamo.[2][6] Later in 2007, Qamar appeared in ATV's series Khuda Gawah which was the remake of 1992 Indian film of the same name, and the biographical drama Jinnah Ke Naam, which was the production of PTV Home in the direction of Tariq Mairaj.[2][7][8] She has played the role of Fatima Jinnah and the series was a tribute to the founder of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Though the series failed commercially, Qamar received a nomination for Best TV Actress (Terrestrial) at the Lux Style Awards. In an earlier interview with The Express Tribune, Qamar confessed, "For me, acting is being able to express the feelings, emotions and expressions of different people and characters".[9]

In 2010, she appeared in a supporting role of Surraya in Hum TV's pre partition television series Dastaan, an adaptation of Razia Butt's novel Bano.[10][11] She was seen opposite Ahsan Khan, Sanam Baloch and Fawad Khan.

Series proved to be the break-through for her and she won the Best TV Actress trophy at the Pakistan Media Awards (2010).[2][4][5] She won the PTV Awards for the best TV actress in both public and jury choice categories at the 16th Annual PTV awards, held on 23 July 2011 for her role in Tinkay.[2]Tinkay also earned her a nomination for Best Television Actress at Lux Style Awards.[2] This was followed by a supporting role in the PTV Home's social drama on women Bint-e-Adam. Her role in the series was of a rich brat who falls for a boy from poor background, and marries him against her cruel father's wishes. Bint e Adam was a major critical and commercial hit, however, critics noted that her role was "limited" from an acting point of view.[2][5]

Qamar then appeared in Sarmad Khoosat's romantic series Pani Jaisa Piyar (2011), where she played the character of Sana who has been engaged to Adarsh, the son of her mother's best friend ever since she was a child. Adarsh, however, has been unaware of this engagement, as his parents thought that he needed to focus more on his education than wedding plans. It was followed by a role in PTV's Tera Pyar Nahi Bhoole.[2][4] She was paired opposite Ahsan Khan in both the series. Both of which garnered her Lux Style Award nominations for Best Television Actress.[2][12] Later that year, she appeared in Maat where she played the role of selfish, self-obsessed Saman opposite Adnan Siddiqui and Aamina Sheikh.[13] The series was critically and commercially hit and became the thirteen highest-rated Pakistani television series and also garnered her Pakistan Media Awards for Best Actress.[4][14][15] That same year, Qamar collaborated with Sami Khan in three of Geo TV's projects, Jo Chale To Jaan Se Guzar Gaye, Tere Ik Nazar, and Main Chand Si, receiving further praise.[12][16]

Qamar next appeared in Ameen Iqbal's Thakan (2012), which also starred Yumna Zaidi where she played the role of Sadaf who works extremely hard like a machine day and night to run her family but no one except her grandfather feels sympathy for her or even cares about her.[17][18][19] It was followed by the leading roles in the Amna Nawaz Khan-written Na Kaho Tum Mere Nahi (2012) and Faiza Iftikhar's Yahan Pyar Nahin Hai (2012).[11][15][20] The later of which earned her a nomination for Best Actress at Hum Awards.

That same year, Qamar worked in the television film Aina (2013), opposite Faysal Qureshi. The film, a remake of the 1977 film of the same name, was well received by the audience and she was nominated for the Best Actress award at the Tarang Housefull Awards.[4] After two consecutive years of poorly received serials, Qamar's career prospects began to improve in 2014; she appeared in five projects: Jaanam, Bay Emaan Mohabbat, Bunty I Love You, Izteraab, and Digest Writer.[11][26][27] The romantic drama Jaanam (alongside Adnan Siddiqui) and the romance Bay Emaan Mohabbat (alongside Agha Ali and Adnan Shah Tipu) earned little praise, but the family drama Bunty I love You (a story about a girl who got married at age of 17 to much older man, later dreams of living a free life after his death) was Qamar's first critical success since Maat.[28][4] Directed by Siraj-ul-Haque, the series was generally well received. Reviewer from Daily Pakistan considered it along with Digest Writer as "one of the best performances of Qamar".[28] The series received five nominations at Hum Awards including Qamar for best actress.[29] She next appeared in Izteraab. Her performance as the working women did not go well and despite the strong cast, story, production house and promotions, the drama turned out to be a major critical and commercial Disaster.[30]

Qamar appeared in three series in 2015. She first reunited with Muhammad Younis Butt and Fawad Wyne in the comedy series S.H.E where she played a role of lady S.H.O Bajirao Mastani.[31] She then starred alongside Adeel Chaudhry in Fahim Burney's directorial Kaisay Tum Se Kahoon which tells the story of star-crossed lovers who are reincarnated.[32][33][22] It was her third consecutive appearance in Momina Duraid's production.

Sadaf Haider of The Express Tribune praised her saying, "Qamar is in great form as Mishi and plays her with restraint and quiet power; a welcome relief from the wounded women she has played of late".[46] During the 16th Lux Style Awards, the series earned 5 nominations including Qamar for Best TV actress.[50] She was also nominated for her projects Mein Sitara and Lahore Se Aagey in Best Actress category.[50] Qamar next played a rockstar opposite Yasir Hussain, in the travel comedy Lahore Se Aagey (2016).[51] The film, a sequel to the comedy Karachi Se Lahore, ranks among the highest-grossing Pakistani films of all time with a worldwide grossing of Rs21.60 million.[52][53] Later that year, she played a leading role in the psycho–thriller 8969, a critical and commercial failure.[54]

Qamar was offered an Indian film opposite Randeep Hooda, and supporting roles in Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai (2012) and Heroine (2012), which she declined.[55] After the 2016 Uri attack, relations between India and Pakistan deteriorated; the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) and the Film Producers Guild of India banned Pakistani artists from working in India until the situation normalised.[56] The comedy-drama Hindi Medium (2017), in which Qamar played the lead female role of Mita Batra, a nouveau riche opposite Irrfan Khan, marked her first project in the Hindi cinema.[57][58] Critical reception of the film was positive. A reviewer for The Times of India wrote, "Saba, as the dominating wife is sheer delight onscreen".[59] In a scathing review, Sreehari Nair of Rediff.com labelled the film "fascinatingly frustrating" and called Qamar "natural actress, sexual daring".[60] The film earned over ₹334.36 million worldwide, a majority of which came from the Chinese box office.[61] and China with a collection of ₹334.36 million.[62] Qamar received several Best Female Debut and Best Actress awards and nominations at various award ceremonies, including a Best Actress nomination at Filmfare.

Neeha of The Nation wrote, "Without a doubt, Qamar has done an outstanding job",[67] whereas reviewer from The Express Tribune said she "slayed the social media star with such finesse".[68] The series earned her a Lux Style Awards for Best Actress (Television) and IPPA Awards for Best Actress.[69][70][71]

In 2018, Qamar appeared in three short films. She first paired with Ahsan Khan in Siraj-ul-Haque directorial Moomal Rano.[72] The film was made as part of the Zeal For Unity initiative to bridge cultural barriers between India and Pakistan.
