Lessons in saying no

Kubbra Sait, recently seen in Khwaabon Ka Jhamela, continues to captivate audiences with her layered performances. In this fun romantic comedy exploring finance and romance, her character brings depth and excitement to the storytelling. Known for her versatility, Kubbra shares her experiences with evolving roles, adventurous pursuits like climbing Kilimanjaro, and representing Indian talent on global platforms. From her impactful work in Shehar Lakhot and The Trial to her international debut in Foundation, Kubbra's journey reflects her passion for the craft and personal growth. Excerpts:

Q. Can you share what drew you to Khwaabon Ka Jhamela and any takeaways for you personally from it?

A. You know, the beauty is that this story is about just a few characters, and it's about coming of age. Every character in this film evolves. Whether it's people finding themselves or realizing their own value, the journey is immense. Personally, playing Shehnaz taught me the power of saying no. That resonated with me deeply. If something—be it a relationship or opportunity—doesn't align with you, it may not be right. Shehnaz embodies that, and I love her for it.
