Hina Sultan (interview)



·       
       
     Hina sultan the bold the beautiful emerging artist of the media town. She has now a days collaborated with Aplus and is  casted in many soaps on the channel and she has also been casted in many other music videos and off course in various dramas.  She is no doubt a very talented girl and will soon be recognized as the most talented host/actor. Islo time asked for her interview and her is what she says, but what i would say about her is that she is  beautiful,gorgeous and one day would be one of leading personallity around
            Name: Hina Sultan
·         Nickname: Roma 
·         D.O.B: 27 july
·         Zodiac sign: Leo
·         Favorite dish: daal chawal
·         Hina tell us something about yourself? 
            I ama very emotional and moody person, love hangout and being with my frnds and family although              I hardly get time yet i always enjoy their company. 
·                   How long have you been in this media thing?
Its been 1 and half year
·         How did you got into all this media stuff? 
Well I have done mass communication from KC so initially I started my career in production for APlus and Alite and was associate producer for shows like “Switch on with fia” and “tune ho jao” so that’s how I was introduced to the media world.
·         How and when did you enter this media and glamorous world?
As I mentioned, I was initially a production person but in the starting days of APlus one of my friends needed a host for his show and fortunately he couldn’t find a well spoken girl so he asked me to host the five days a week show “tune ho jao” and I said ok to him then he auditioned me and I got selected and that’s how I started my career as a TV host. Initially as I was working in APlus, I did hosting just for fun and wasn’t serious in hosting thingy at all. During my first show I did my first sitcom “Khel tamasha” for PTV and I think people liked my acting and after people comments regarding my on camera work, I started taking it more seriously.
·         Was this your passion and are you gonna carry it as full time profession?
It was not my passion in the beginning but now TV hosting is my passion and I really love doing live shows as they give me opportunity to interact with my fans. As far as acting is concerned I like acting in different plays and love playing my characters in plays (different from my personality).
·         Who are your major inspirations?
Ummm my major inspiration quaid-e-azam, Mohammad Ali Jinnah…… as he gave this country by his endless effort.  


·         When and how did you felt that you should be acting, hosting and modeling?
I never thought of taking this field as profession as neither anyone of my family belongs to this field nor my interest was in it but I incidently entered in this field as I mentioned earlier…. But yup after working as producer I realized that I was never meant for production thingy. And since im a very talkative person so can be a good tv anchor/host so I felt that should take it as profession.
·         Did you face any hard times while you were in media?
You come across with weird people every now and then but I guess it’s just a nature of a professional life, no matter what you are doing you will always come across such people so I’ve grown to overcome such petty feelings and I try to do my best work and stay out of the politics.
·         Further in which part you would be concentrating more acting, modeling or hosting?
Currently, I’m enjoying hosting a lot and do enjoy acting from time to time so I will be focusing on hosting and acting but you never know what happens in the future.
·         You have been also acting in a famous sitcom “timmy g” how was working in it?
It was an amazing experience, the entire cast I worked with was so amazing and the entire experience was so learning and educational. I hope I keep getting work with people like the cast and crew of Timmy g.
·         Any other interests?
Observing people as it really teaches me a lot. Humans are very unpredictable creatures but more you understand their behavior and habits, more easier it gets to help you to make a decision relevant to them like it is good to learn and observe people how they act when they get angry or when they are happy, excited etc.
·         Who is your favorite actor/host and actress/host?
Juggun kazim and faisal qureshi…. Love both of them.
·         What are the major achievements you have got till now?
My family and my lovely fans J
·         Who is currently the worst actor and actress in showbiz?
I’m myself a learner so I cant say who is the worst…. but yeah I’ve seen mathira’s acting I didn’t like it, I guess she is a good entertainer as a TV host so in my personal opinion I think she should stick to that only.
·         Upcoming projects?
Working in a soap “Bas Yunhi” for urdu1, “khwab kab pooray hotay hain” and “Jalan” … all of these are under production phase so u guys need to wait cz my characters in all the projects are different from one another.

·         Where  do you see yourself in the next few years?
Don’t know as I’m a very inconsistent person… so cant say but yup I want to see myself always with my family J
·         Dreams which have still not been accomplished?
Hahahha…. Hazaron khwahishain aisi k har khwahish per dam niklay
       Bohut niklay mere armaan phir b kam niklay ;)
·         Any comments about Veena?
She is a big name and no doubt she is achieving a lot so I’m no one to comment about her as its her life and I think she has full right to do whatever she wants.
·         Any message for your fans?
I love you all and I appreciate every single message you put on my facebook page. I try to read all of them but sometimes it’s not always possible. Keep watching me and keep putting constructive criticism, as it would be the best method that will help me develop as an artist.
·         Views about islo times?
It is a very good and informative website as it gives so much information through top ten stories and social stories….all the people like me who either don’t get time to browse internet a lot or watch tv they should just browse this website and can get any kind of information they want to.
