karachi( The COW News Digital)Veteran Pakistani actress Nisho Begum has opened up about the reasons behind her initial opposition to her daughter Sahiba’s marriage to fellow actor Rambo, shedding light on one of Lollywood’s most famous love stories. Her revelations came during a candid appearance on a popular podcast, where she discussed both Sahiba’s cinematic ambitions and her whirlwind romance with Rambo.
According to Nisho, Sahiba was passionate about acting from a young age and expressed an almost obsessive desire to join showbiz. “She told me that if I did not allow her to work in films, she would consider ending her life,” Nisho revealed. Once Sahiba entered the film industry and began receiving roles, she eventually met Rambo, which changed her focus completely. Nisho explained that her daughter gradually reduced her film work, consumed by the desire to marry Rambo.
While many assumed that Nisho was strictly against the marriage, the actress clarified that her opposition was rooted in concern rather than disapproval. With millions of rupees invested by producers and financiers in Sahiba’s career, Nisho feared the potential professional and financial fallout. “I explained to Sahiba that the film industry demands responsibility. Producers and investors cannot afford losses—they could come after you personally,” she said.
Nisho further elaborated that her apprehension about Sahiba entering the film world stemmed from the demanding nature of the industry. Once an actor commits to a project, it can become a binding obligation. Incomplete projects, she said, act like chains on one’s feet, restricting freedom and personal choice. Her intention, she stressed, was to prepare Sahiba for the realities of showbiz, where artistic ambition intersects with high stakes and constant pressures.
The legendary actress also highlighted how Sahiba’s personal and professional priorities shifted rapidly after meeting Rambo. “She became so focused on marriage that her cinematic ambitions took a backseat,” Nisho noted. Despite the challenges, Sahiba and Rambo’s relationship ultimately flourished, and the two became one of Lollywood’s most celebrated couples.
Nisho Begum’s candid disclosures not only provide insight into the personal dynamics behind Sahiba and Rambo’s marriage but also offer a rare glimpse into the inner workings of Pakistan’s film industry, including the pressures faced by actors, producers, and investors.
Fans and industry insiders have praised Nisho for her openness, noting that her story highlights the delicate balance between familial concern, professional responsibility, and personal choice in the high-pressure world of cinema.
