Pakistani actress Mahira Khan was honored with the prestigious “Artist in Fashion” award at the recent EMIGALA ceremony held in Dubai, UAE, where notable figures from the global fashion and beauty industries were celebrated.
The award ceremony, which took place at Festival Bay in Dubai on April 27 and 28, attracted a star-studded lineup, including Brazilian-American beauty personality Camila Coelho, Lebanese-British fashion entrepreneur Karen Wazen, Dubai Bling star Loujain Adada, social media sensation Narins Beauty, Indian singer Arjit Singh, and Mahira Khan herself.
EMIGALA awards are renowned for recognizing the creative and innovative contributions of celebrities in the fields of beauty and fashion.
“Mahira Khan, the Artist in Fashion,” announced the Emi Gala Awards on Instagram, accompanied by a photo of Khan proudly posing with her trophy.
Mahira Khan has established herself as one of Pakistan’s most accomplished actresses, earning widespread acclaim for her performances in numerous successful drama serials. Her transition into the film industry further solidified her status as a household name, both domestically and internationally.
Notably, Khan made her Bollywood debut alongside iconic actor Shah Rukh Khan in the 2017 crime action film “Raees.” Despite her promising start in Indian cinema, her subsequent projects in India were affected by deteriorating relations between the two countries in 2016, following an attack on an Indian army brigade headquarters in Uri. Khan’s potential ventures across the border were put on hold amidst escalating tensions.
In 2021, Mahira Khan achieved yet another milestone by making her debut appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, representing L’Oreal Paris Hair from Pakistan. Throughout her career, she has also served as a brand ambassador for esteemed local brands such as Elan, Zohra Rahman, and Menahel and Mehreen.
