Actress Rukhsar Rehman, known for films like Knock Out, Bheja Fry 2, PK, and Uri: The Surgical Strike, recently spoke about being a single mother to her daughter, actress Aisha Ahmed. She expressed that she is very proud of Aisha and feels her daughter is 'sorted' in life.
In an exclusive conversation with The Free Press Journal, Rukshar shared, "I feel happy and thankful, not only because of me. I feel that if I am not there with her somewhere, I will be at peace, like, 'My bacchi is sorted, she is doing good in her life and not into things I wouldn’t want her to be in.' I am at peace, more than proud. When I see her projects, those 10–20 second videos she used to make, I used to feel so proud that she was doing so well — and she used to do comedy. For me, if koi mujhe kahe ki choice kar lo kya karna hai as far as acting roles go, I am going to do only comedy. Mujhe bada accha lagta tha. I am very much at peace as far as Aisha is concerned, which is a big thing."

I also loved that school."
