Pakistani actress of the yester-years, Noor Bukhari has been living quite the hushed life as of late. The actress who twinkled Lollywood in the early 00’s with films like ‘Billi,’ ‘Tere Pyar Mein,’ and ‘Zill-e-Shah’ recently took to a television morning show and debuted her hijab.

Noor took to Instagram to debut her hijab with the hashtag #lovemyself

 

The actress was seen in a turquoise sequinned dupatta and ghagara 

 

Before officially declaring her adoption of the hijab, the actress posted a few pictures on social media with a dupatta loosely around her head, like this black one

 

Or sporting a white one here, captioned “Simplicity is better than all the fake glamour of the world”

 

The post was welcomed with overwhelming love and support by Pakistanis
