Karachi: Veteran Pakistani actress Bushra Ansari’s mother Mehmooda Bashir Khanum has passed away on Tuesday.
Turning to Instagram, the 66-year-old actress wrote: “My beautiful mother Mehmooda Khanam just left us. Went through a long miserable time on bed. She will meet my beloved sister Sumbul”.
“Good bye my dear mother,” she added.
In another post on Meta-owned platform, Ansari shared a picture of her late sister and mother and wrote: “My beloved mother and my beautiful sister Sumbul Shahid are together in heaven”.
The Bilqees Kaur star, then, urged fans to pray for the departed soul and her sister—Sumbul Shahid, who passed away following an extensive battle with the COVID-19, last year.
In August, the renowned actress shared a post regarding her mother’s condition, stating: “My beautiful mother fighting with her illness. Now a little stable. Shifted to room from ICU”.
Bushra, in an interview, revealed that she never informed her ailing mother of her sister’s passing, adding that she had told her late mother that Sumbul had left for San Francisco.
The Pakistani star then stated that she made her mother believe that there were no more flights coming in due to the global pandemic.
Ansari also mentioned that, to soothe her mother, she used to impersonate her sister (Sumbul) in telephonic conversations.
