By the time I was called to speak my throat was chocked, I had goosebumps and I couldn’t breathe. I will do everything in my capacity to support this cause and so should you all!”Responding to Barrister Hassaan Niazi who thanked Mawra for being a part of the event, the Aangan actor said, “Thank you! I’m so grateful and honoured to be a minuscule part of your extra-ordinary efforts towards such an important cause! #StopChildSexAbuse. I hope we can collaborate on many other matters that require our attention and time! I’m so proud of all the rape and sodomy survivors.”On work front, Mawra is currently playing a key role in Ehteshamuddin’s period drama Aangan while she made her big screen debut in Pakistan last year with Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2.
