Amina Haq is a Pakistani model and actress. Arguably one the most photogenically beautiful Pakistani models and actresses, she is most famous for her role in the television drama Menhdi, in which she plays one of the three daughters, Alishbah. She is the daughter of Sherzade Nilofar Haq, commonly know as Sherry Haq, the third wife of the Pakistani politician Malik Ghulam Mustafa Khar; Haq has an estranged relationship with her father.
Dubbed as the 'Aishwarya Rai' of Pakistan, Amina has proved most popular among her counterparts, captivating audiences with her intense beauty and sharp acting ability. Pakistani photographers Arshad Tareen, Athar Shahzad and Tapu Javeri have deemed her the most photogenic model and a pleasure to work with. Although only 5'3" she has also questionably catwalked for a coterie of designers including HSY. She has also been selected as a Brand Ambassador for Levi's Jeans and is the Ambassador for Depilex's 'Smile Again Foundation,' a charity that helps female acid burn victims. Amina has done a few international commercials, notably in Canada and was interviewed by 'French Vogue.' She has recently been romantically linked to Ammar Belal, designer of 'Ammar Belal for Men,and 'ABCD' for whom she has modelled in press campaigns and the advertorial 'cinema verite' 'Satori.' Amina and Ammar also co-directed the music video 'My Favourite Dream.'
Depilex Vision will hold a fashion week in Karachi at the end of next month, Muhammad Ali, Depilex Vision country manager, told Daily Times on Monday. “A nation-wide competition will also be held for models, actors and photographers.”
“Designers and models from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, France, UAE and Italy will participate in the event,” he said. “Each country will send one model and one designer to Pakistan.”
“After the fashion event in Karachi, another will be held in Islamabad,” he said. “We selected Karachi for our first event because we feel there are many international buyers in the city. Lahore, on the other hand, has already hosted several international fashion events recently.”
Ali said that beauticians, jewellery designers and lifestyle-related people would attend the show. “Preparations are in full swing for the first show.”
“Depilex Vision will award the best candidate from modelling, acting and photography in two categories – amateur and professional. We will start accepting applications in the last week of May,” he said. “The competition is being organised by Depilex Vision’s Performing Arts College.”
“The two semi-finals of the competition will be held at Karachi and Islamabad. The final will take place in Lahore,” he said.
He said that Depilex Vision wanted to show the “softer side of Pakistan” by organising a fashion week and promoting modelling, acting and photography by holding competitions.
“This is the need of the day. Depilex Vision staged Anarkali in Norway and London to boost Pakistan’s image.”Ali said that soon Depilex Vision would hold dress exhibitions at different major cities of country, “not only to promote fashion, but to provide people with economical and fashionable dresses”.
Pakistani models Amna Haq, Natasha Hussain, Veneeza Ahmed and Iman Ali will be some of the model participating in the fashion week.
