The host further clarified that Javeria was the child of her mother’s first husband and Shamoon was child of his father’s first wife. The two also have siblings together.

The veteran also joked that when she got married, her mother, who was also her mother-in-law gave her a tough time because she wanted to prove that her daughter can do anything.
“I used to work 12 hours a day [on set] and then after coming back home, I used to prepare the food and iron clothes as well.”
Javeria also shared that Shamoon and her began their career together and that she was fortunate that she did not have to go through the casting couch.
