Huma Qureshi’s special wish for Saqib Saleem on Raksha Bandhan!

Saqib Saleem, Huma Qureshi



Bollywood actress Huma Qureshi has a message for her brother, Saqib Saleem. This Raksha Bandhan, instead of the usual sister tying rakhi to brother, Huma Qureshi wants to reverse the tradition. Huma Qureshi wants Brother Saqib Saleem to tie her a rakhi. Talking to the media in Mumbai, 32-year-old Huma Qureshi revealed, “Rakhi is a beautiful festival. I think brothers should also tie rakhis to their sisters. I always tie rakhis to my brothers but I think this time he will tie me a rakhi.” 

“Brothers should also tie rakhis to their sisters because it is not one-way protection. I think sisters also protect their brothers in their own way. If not physically, then emotionally, mentally and spiritually," Huma added later. 

As we know, Huma and Saqib share a very close bond with each other and their Instagram posts are a proof of it.

Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem confirmed for Salman starrer Race 3!

After Bobby Deol, now Saqib Saleem and Daisy Shah are formally on board Race 3. There has been conjecture about Aditya Roy Kapur, Sooraj Pancholi, and Sidharth Malhotra being approached for Remo D’ Souza’s Race 3, which is being produced by Ramesh Taurani and Salman Khan.

Anil Kapoor who had been part of Race and Race 2 won’t be seen in the third installment. Race 3, starring Salman Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Bobby Deol is one of the hottest films in trade today. All the characters in the film, including Salman have shades of grey.

A source reveals, “Daisy and Saqib have signed the film. Daisy had been telling close friends in her circle that she has signed a very big film but was waiting for the announcement to come from the producer. What’s more interesting is that while Anil Kapoor won’t be a part of the third Race franchise directed by Remo D’Souza, a new addition to it is now Huma Qureshi’s brother Saqib. Sooraj Pancholi, who Salman is very fond of, was being considered as the superstar is reportedly calling the shots in the casting and production aspects, but it didn’t work out and Saqib has stepped in Sooraj’s place. While Salman will romance Jacqueline, Bobby will romance Daisy. Saqib’s role will also have negative shades to it like the rest of the cast. Like the earlier Race movies, the audience, while watching Race 3, will be wondering until the very end as to who the real villain is?”

Ramesh Taurani reveals, “Apart from Salman Khan, Bobby Deol and Jacqueline Fernandez now Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem are officially part of Race 3 now. Daisy is the second female lead in the film.”

I am not dating Taapsee Pannu, reveals Saqib Saleem!


The actor has been in news for quite some time now over his alleged relationship with Taapsee Pannu. But, Saqib in an interview maintained that she is just his "good friend."

“I am not dating her yaar. Few people have asked me this question and this is what I keep telling them. Taapsee is my dearest friend, and there is nothing more than that,” Saqib said a famous tabloid.  He had featured in a music video titled Tum Ho Toh Lagta Hain opposite Taapsee which released in June last year. The two will be seen sharing screen space in the forthcoming movie Makhna as well.

Saqib and Taapsee's alleged relationship made headlines last year after it was stated that the duo went out for a romantic dinner on Taapsee’s birthday.

Commenting on it, Saqib told, “The thing is that woh bhi Dilli ki laundi hai, aurmain bhi Dilli ka launda hun (She is a Delhi girl and I am a Delhi boy). So, we are really comfortable in each other’s company. She has an amazing sense of humour, and I love spending time with her. Woh bahot chill laundi hai (she is a chilled out person)."


“I keep telling her that she should behave like an actor. But she tells me she doesn’t have that vibe, and she can’t behave that way. That’s why I say she is a very easy and comfortable person to be with. But, we are not dating each other, except on-screen for our next film,” the actor ended conversation.

I think worldwide, feminism was first seen as a dirty word, says Huma Qureshi!

Bollywood actress Huma Qureshi tells "feminism is first seen as a dirty word", but the attitude towards it is slowly changing.

Huma, who spoke about the representation of women in media and gender equality at the UN headquarters in New York in March, feels feminism stands for equality for numerous.

"I think worldwide, feminism was first seen as a dirty word. But now feminism is seen as a word which is about equality. This is about giving equal options to everyone. India is no different from the west. We also looked at it in a certain way and now it is completely different," Huma said over the phone from Mumbai.

When it comes to gender inequality at the workplace, Huma told, "More women in workspace means more security for women. I am all for that. I think things are changing slowly, but surely they are changing for the better."

From "Gangs of Wasseypur", "Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana", "Ek Thi Daayan", "Dedh Ishqiya" to "Jolly LLB 2", Huma takes up strong female characters in movies. And it doesn't happen by fluke.

"It is a part conscious and part luck. I want to see interesting and strong characters and I am lucky enough that the directors and makers are doing such kind of projects with me. So it is a mix of all."


After doing some short movies, Huma, who hails from Delhi, came into the spotlight with Anurag Kashyap's dark thriller "Gangs of Wasseypur - Part 2" in 2012. Since then, it has been a case of hit and miss in Bollywood.

At the moment, Huma is looking forward to horror movie "Dobaara: See Your Evil", in which she features with her brother Saqib Saleem. Directed by Prawaal Raman, the film also features Lisa Ray, Adil Hussain among others and is slated to release on June 2.

Speaking about the movie, Huma told, "It is a very special film because we are acting together for the first time. We never thought that we will get an opportunity to act in a film together so early in our career. We are very excited about that."

Huma says shooting with her brother was different.

"Saqib is very sensitive as a co-star. He is very involved with everything and hard working. It was a great pleasure to work with him. I discovered new aspects to Saqib's personality that I didn't know. I understand him better as a co-star than a sister."

"Dobaara: See Your Evil" is an official remake of the Hollywood film "Oculus", which released in 2013. The Mike Fangan supernatural psychological horror film stars Karen Gillan and Brenton Thwaites.

It revolves around a young woman who is convinced that an antique mirror is responsible for the death and misfortune that her family suffered.

Saqib joins the family biz!

Saleem Qureshi runs a chain of successful restaurants in Delhi, and his son Saqib Saleem helped him run the eateries before deciding that the food biz wasn’t for him.


Instead Saqib moved West to carve out a career in films, so it’s now a surprise to hear that he has his sights on the restaurant industry again! Saqib plans to extend his dad’s empire to Mumbai, and he’s teaming up with the Sr. Saleem to open two outlets in the Bollywood capital later this year. I guess he just couldn’t turn his back on the family business!

Speaking about it to a famous tabloid, a source specified, "Farhan has played a lead in a biopic once before (Bhaag Milkha Bhaag) and he wouldn’t want to step away from the protagonist’s role in this film.
