The actor also spoke about the pressures of being labelled as the "face of Gen-Z" in Pakistan, a title that has brought her widespread recognition and attention in recent years. She acknowledged the responsibility that comes with such a title but also expressed gratitude for the opportunity to represent a generation that is both progressive and socially conscious.

Hania emphasized the importance of staying true to herself and using her platform to inspire others, despite the expectations that come with being seen as a role model for the youth.

In October of the previous year, Hania attended Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh’s Dil-Luminati Tour at the O2 Arena in London. The event attracted attention not only due to Diljit's performance but also because of the appearance of her alleged boyfriend, rapper Badshah, on stage.

A recent viral video of Hania dancing to Bollywood songs at a wedding has quickly gained her widespread popularity around the world.
