ISLAMABAD: Renowned Pakistani actress Durefishan Saleem has, for the first time, addressed rumors regarding her relationship and marriage with fellow actor Bilal Abbas.

In a recent interview, Durefishan shared her thoughts on the matter. Responding to a question, she said, “It’s important to be comfortable with your co-star—especially when working in a romantic drama. You need to feel good together.”

She added, “That’s what creates visible chemistry on screen. Bilal and I had such a connection, which is why people liked our on-screen pairing from day one.”

When asked about the public’s strong attachment to their pairing, to the extent that people assumed they were married, Durefishan responded:

“I chose to ignore such rumors because they were just that—rumors. Marriage is a very personal matter, and when it happens, people usually share it themselves through pictures. Why would anyone keep it a secret for long?”

She further shared, “My father taught me to always keep personal matters private, and that’s what I follow. But that doesn’t mean I’m hiding anything.”

Dur-e-Fishan concluded by saying, “There’s a difference between being secretive and being private. I understand that difference and handle my matters accordingly—especially in a career like mine, where things remain personal only for as long as I choose to keep them that way.”
