The Sonu ki Titu ki Sweety actress revealed that most of her childhood is spent visiting temples Churches and Gurdwaras. She further said I had also kept a fast of Maa Santoshi Mata. I kept a fast on 16 Fridays. I have kept 9 Novenas.
Asking the reason behind going on a spiritual trip like Kedarnath Nushrratt shared I was very much convinced to go to both Kedarnath and Badrinath. I just wanted to go and bow my head there and feel the energy there. I wanted to take blessings from there. I have also visited Vaishno Devi and not just bowed down to Mata but I climbed the whole way. I did a full 13 km trek. Had darshan and then walked back the next day. So I have done that too.
The Pyaar Ka Punchnama star further spoke out about facing constant backlash over her appearance and beliefs talking about her choices majorly towards faith and clothes. She added Whether it’s about my clothes or where I go I’ve faced comments. When I post my picture people ask ‘What kind of Muslim is she? Look at her clothes’. How do I handle it? Just like any other criticism. It doesn’t change me. It won’t stop me from going to a temple or praying namaz. I’ll keep doing both. Because that’s my faith. When you’re clear in your thoughts spirit and mind no one in the world can shake you.
Meanwhile Nushrratt has been a part of movies such as Kal Kissne Dekha Taj Mahal Love Sex Aur Dhokha. Pyaar Ka Punchnama Akash Vani and more.
