Huma Qureshi shared her clear stand on cinema during a recent Unplugged podcast with Shubhankar Mishra, and her words now have you talking across social media. She opened up about how she chooses scripts and why her values guide every decision.
She spoke about her journey from Gangs of Wasseypur to intense dramas like Maharani and the next season of Delhi Crime Season 3. When asked if she must believe in a story before signing it, she joked about big cheques but stayed firm on her principles.
