KARACHI: Singer and songwriter Hadiqa Kiani is all set to make her acting debut with the upcoming serial named ‘Raqeeb Se’.

She also went on to describe how it was something very unlike what she had done previously. “In the music industry, we make music, interact with each other on a different level, go on stage, on the spotlight, see the audience, roar and come back. But this was teamwork. Living in one house, day and night. It was completely unique. We were like one family,” she added.
“It was like a challenge that came in my life and I honestly like to challenge myself. I thought this is the time, it’s a difficult art form and I need to explore myself,” she maintained. Moreover, the OST of Raqeeb Se has also been composed by Hadiqa herself, and written by her mother Khawar Kiani, and produced by Ustad Baqir Abbas.
