On May 30, emerging actress Reham Rafiq addressed the backlash over her widely circulated dance clip, asserting that both her spouse and extended family back her decision without reservation. During an interview with FUCHSIA Magazine, Reham Rafiq discussed her ten-year expedition within the entertainment sector. She recounted starting out as a performer before transitioning to voiceovers and finally pursuing an acting path.
Reham remembered her victory in a dance contest held at the Arts Council and disclosed that she had been a backup dancer for the film “Romeo Weds Heer,” standing behind actress Sana Javed in a green lehenga. Additionally, she took part in a number of performances from the same movie’s soundtrack with actors Hareem Farooq and Ali Rehman.
She added that she was part of the dancers’ team for several Lux Style Awards shows and performed with them for over two years. Directors often placed her in prominent spots due to her strong expressions and dance skills, which eventually helped her build connections and land acting roles.
In response to criticism surrounding her latest TikTok clip, Reham mentioned that many individuals struggle to recognize dancing as an artform and instead evaluate dancers based on their own religious and cultural perspectives. She also noted that detractors frequently involve family members in these debates, acting as though celebrities belong to everyone. Nonetheless, she emphasized that both her spouse and extended family stand behind her creative endeavors.
Reham additionally discussed her connection with actress Samar Jafri, playfully mentioning their frequent lighthearted disagreements during filming. Personally, she revealed that her loving marriage to husband Shakeeb thrives on mutual respect and transparent dialogue, qualities she considers essential for a robust partnership.
