After one and a half year of acting in Pakistani movies, she got a call from director Sunaina Bhatnagar who was keen on casting her for 'Dear Maya'.

Trivia 5

It was a coincidence that the character of Anna that she essays in the movie is similar to what she is in real life. Smart, sweet, shy yet ambitious in her own way.

Trivia 6

Did you know that when she was 18, Madiha used to dream of being a part of a Disney fairy tale? Though 'Dear Maya' may not be quintessentially one, but the offer surely gave her the similar feelings of anticipation. How incredible and unexpected the surprises of life can be?

Pakistani actress Madiha Imam marks her Bollywood debut with the forthcoming slice-of-life flick ‘Dear Maya‘. She plays the role of Anna in the movie. Speaking about her character, she says, “The greatest bit about my character Anna was that she is actually like me in person! She is a smart, sweet, shy yet incredibly ambitious girl, in her own way.” Well, if you have seen the promos and the songs you can visibly notice the difference in the characterisation of Anna and Ira.
