An ecstatic Hina shares,”Lines is our baby as it gave me a headstart into films, and the poster launch and unveiling which happened at the Cannes film festival in 2019 making it my Cannes debut, makes the film an even more special one for me. I am happy to see Lines being acknowledged and appreciated. The awards and nominations at the MIFF film festival are definitely the cherry on the cake for the entire team. The life story that my character ‘Nazia’ narrates through Lines is beautiful, heartwarming, filled with challenges and so much intensity, that is was a wonderful experience portraying such a diverse role. Also, Rahat Kazmi played a very important and pivotal role in taking the story forward and shaping up every character, for which I thank him. I now hope that we can soon show the film outside of film festivals to the rest of the world.”
