Huma Qureshi opens up about her conscious choice to take on roles that emphasise strong, independent women with distinct careers, separate from the men in their stories. As she awaits the second season of the thriller series 'Mithya', she narrates an incident from the show's first installment, where certain dialogues didn’t sit well with her, as they undermined her character's individuality simply because she was a mother.

Instead, she focuses on meaningful representation and authentic storytelling that reflect the complexities of women's lives.
