Aina Asif is one of the brightest young stars in the Pakistani entertainment industry. She quickly captured hearts with her talent, charm, and expressive performances. Her journey began with the hit drama Hum Tum, where she played Ahad Raza Mir’s sister. However, it was her role as Annie in the critically acclaimed drama Mayi Ri that truly made her a household name. Her on-screen chemistry with co-star Samar Jafri was an instant fan favorite, and the duo is now back together in Parwarish—delighting fans once again.
Recently, Aina appeared on Buzz on ARY Digital, where she opened up about her acting journey, her passion for the craft, and her close friendship with Samar Jafri. During the interview, Aina shared a heartwarming detail about their connection—something many fans didn’t know before. Interestingly, her mother and Samar’s mother were college mates, so the two families have known each other for years. This longstanding connection explains the natural comfort and understanding between the two young stars.
Moreover, Aina addressed the frequent “shipping” from fans, who adore seeing her paired with Samar on and off screen. She candidly admitted that she doesn’t mind the shipping in Samar’s case because they share a great bond and mutual respect. However, she added that she might not feel the same way if this happened with another co-star.
On set, Aina and Samar are more than just colleagues—they’re true friends. They support each other during scenes, lift each other’s spirits, and enjoy plenty of lighthearted moments and jokes in between takes. Their real-life friendship adds depth to their performances and makes their on-screen connection even more believable.
