Fans’ expectations of seeing veteran actress Sanam Baloch again have been rekindled after a recent social media video of her enjoying a theater performance went viral.
Since her last appearance with Ali Rehman Khan in Khaas in 2019, Baloch, who enthralled fans with her performances in critically praised dramas like Kankar, Dastaan, Durr-e-Shehwar, Khaas, and Teri Raza, has mostly avoided the spotlight.
The actress is seen sitting in the crowd, grinning and laughing in the brief Instagram video clip from Yasir Hussain’s theater production Monkey Business. Her followers were thrilled by this moment. On social media, many people expressed their happiness at seeing the actress after a long break, and some even called for her to make a comeback to television.
One fan added, “She still looks so beautiful,” while another said, “It made me happy to see her after such a long time.” “Please return to dramas,” remarked another admirer.
After starting her career with Sindhi-language television, Sanam Baloch, now 39, became well-known for her popular Urdu drama serials. Baloch, who gained widespread recognition for her grace and subtle performances, had a prosperous career in the 2000s and 2010s.
Many of her followers felt a hole after her abrupt exit from television, especially since she had continuously played roles that were favorably accepted. But in recent years, the actress turned her attention to her personal life.
Her first marriage, to television host Abdullah Farhatullah, ended in divorce. After getting married again, she shocked her fans by sharing the news of her daughter’s birth on Instagram, something she had previously kept quiet about.
