Recently, Huma Qureshi spoke about the value of supporting fellow artists—just as she was guided early in her career. Recalling a particularly formative moment with the late Om Puri on the set of Viceroy’s House (2017), she shares a memory of his kindness.A report by Mid-Day quoted Huma describing her first international project, Qureshi says, “It was an emotional scene involving Om sa’ab and me. As a newcomer, I didn’t know if I could ask for another take. Om sa’ab sensed that I was hesitating and said, ‘Gurinder, one for me.’ He knew I wanted one more take. I can never forget that.”In her latest project, Mithya: The Darker Chapter, a thriller exploring complex family dynamics, Qureshi collaborates with Naveen Kasturia and Avantika Dassani. The actor reflects on her decision to guide and support her co-stars, hoping to foster a more positive and supportive working environment for newcomers.The original Mithya series, which first aired in 2022, focused on the tension between two half-sisters, setting the stage for the latest edition’s intense storyline.
