Actress Huma Qureshi is known for her powerful roles on screen. But now, she’s taking a big step behind the camera. She recently shared her reasons for becoming a film producer. It turns out, it’s all about taking control of her own creative journey.
Huma is launching her first production with her brother, Saqib Saleem. Their upcoming film is titled ‘Baby Do Die Do’. Beyond their acting careers, they both decided to step into producing. Their goal is simple: to handpick compelling stories and bring them directly to audiences.
Why Huma Stepped Into Producing
Imagine being a talented actor, but always waiting for someone else to offer you a part. That’s how Huma felt. A report from Hindustan Times quotes Huma saying she constantly relied on others to choose her roles. This left her feeling frustrated. She knew she had so much more to give to the world of cinema.
So, Huma and Saqib decided to change the game. Instead of waiting, they chose to create their own narratives. Their first film, ‘Baby Do Die Do’, is set to release soon. After that, Huma will also star in an investigative film called ‘Bayaan’.
Huma’s Vision for the Future
Huma, who is 39 years old, has charmed audiences with her acting in movies like ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’, ‘Dedh Ishqiya’, and ‘Jolly LLB 2’. Now, she’s driven to introduce fresh and exciting stories. She explained that she and Saqib chose to build their own opportunities. They didn’t want to just wait for someone else to give them a break.
Their production house has a clear mission. They want it to be a place where new faces get a real chance. They also aim for a much better work environment for everyone involved. Huma stated that they plan to learn from past mistakes in the industry and avoid repeating them. While they hope to make larger films in the future, it won’t be at the expense of discovering and supporting new talent.
Through their new production company, Huma and Saqib are bringing a wave of fresh stories. Their debut film, ‘Baby Do Die Do’, is eagerly awaited. And as an actress, Huma will soon be seen in ‘Bayaan’.
