Zaira Wasim, a former Bollywood star, made a rare appearance on Instagram. On his photo-blogging account, the actor, who rose to prominence with films like Dangal and Secret Superstar, has mostly been sharing quotes. Zaira is wearing a burkha and strolling on a bridge in a recent Instagram photo. She is facing the camera with her back to it.
“The warm October sun...” she captioned the photo.
Zaira declared in 2019 that she would no longer be performing because she was unhappy with her field of work, claiming that it conflicted with her beliefs and religion. Last year, she asked followers to remove all of her photographs from social media accounts and not publish them on her Instagram account. She went on to say that she was attempting to start a new chapter in her life.
‘It’s obviously IMPOSSIBLE to get them off the internet but the least I can do is request your pages not to continue sharing them. I hope you could help and support me through this just like you’ve supported me through everything. “I’m trying to start a new chapter in my life and I could really benefit from your cooperation — (like a lot!!). Thank you for being a part of my journey.” She concluded.
