Huma doesn’t let success affect her
Huma Qureshi says failure and success are a part of everyone’s journey, and she doesn’t let them get to her head. “I’ve learnt from my mother that goodness never fails. I also believe in the concept of karma. These have helped me both personally and professionally. I’ve tried to approach both my work and my personal equations with utmost positivity and goodness,” Huma, who turned a year older on Saturday, said.
After doing some short films, Huma, who hails from Delhi, came into the spotlight with Anurag Kashyap’s dark thriller Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 2 in 2012. From Gangs of Wasseypur, Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana, Ek Thi Daayan, Dedh Ishqiya to Jolly LLB 2, Huma takes up strong female characters in films. At the moment, she is seen judging a talent hunt show on the small screen.
The actress says she is “very happy with the choices” she has made. “Because each of them have been lessons. Failure and success are a part of everyone’s journey. I have learnt from each mistake and cherish every success. I never let success or failure get to my head and only hope to give everything I take on my best,” Huma said.
And how have her ambitions changed over the time? “I always wanted to be an actor and be known for good work, which will never change with time. The urge to prove something in the creative space is always there. It keeps me grounded. As an actor, over the years,
I’ve probably got a wee bit greedy of wanting to dabble in various genres and experiment with different roles,” she said.
What’s keeping her busy these days?
