Quitting showbiz

Inspired by Sana Khan, who quit showbiz to follow a spiritual path, Mehjabi mentioned in a long note about her decision. Her note read, “I am writing this because I was very upset for 2 years. I had no understanding as to what to do to feel good. When a person commits a sin, then the shame of sin ends in a short time, but the bad deed remains till the doom. Maine mehsoos kiya ke mein apni asal zindagi ko bhoolkar duniya ki dikhawe wali zindagi jee rahi thi (I realized that forgetting my real life, I was living the life of the world).”

3/8

Inspired by Sana Khan

Mehjabi wrote how Sana Khan inspired her. In the note she mentioned, “I was following Sana Khan for a year. I used to like her words very much and watching her videos awakened the hobby of listening to (religious) programs in me.” Sana recently shared a video appreciating Mehjabi’s decision and also said how proud she feels about her.
