What makes Iqra Aziz and her mother glow? Power, according to Yasir Hussain

He posted a picture of his wife and mother-in-law in Iqra's new car and his caption is winning hearts.
08 Apr, 2021

Actor and self proclaimed magnet of controversy Yasir Hussain dedicated his most recent Instagram post to the strong women in his life — his mother-in-law Asiya Aziz and wife Iqra Aziz.

Congratulating his wife on buying her new car, he took the chance to sing praises for both Iqra and Asiya, who is Pakistan's first female Careem captain.

This is one post that definitely won't be raising any controversies.

"Powerful women have a distinct glow to their faces," he said.

The picture features Iqra sitting in the driver's seat of her brand new car, all smiles for the camera, and her mother in the front passenger seat, with the modest smile of an accomplished woman and we love it.

We first heard of Asiya being Pakistan's first woman Careem captain from Iqra herself in a 2018 interview with renowned fashion designer HSY.

"I was brought up by a single mother. It wasn't easy for her to make it, but she worked really hard and got me where I am today," she told HSY. "She was also Pakistan's first Careem captain!" she had announced.

"Me, my sister, and everyone else really supported her," she continued. "To be a woman and a Careem captain might seem weird to some people, given that she's actress Iqra Aziz's mother, but to go in and show men that women are equally as capable is an impressive feat, one to be proud of."

It is refreshing to see him appreciating his mother in law. Usually or at least mostly such honor and asteem is only reserved for the husband's mother/parents in Pakistani desi culture. Things are changing. Cool.

The "new" car appears to have paint cracks while it appears the powerful lady in his life rides him and doesn't let him be on top while the mother in law is the director of the movie of his miserable life that leads him to praise them in public or else he won't be permitted to wash the dishes tonight.

Yassir, call it a family car instead of Iqra's. Compliments to single mother to raise a family against all odds nd being a Careem captain. It' gutsy and deserves respect and honor.

Question: What is a Careem Captain ? Careem is like Uber, in the rest of the world. A Careem Captain would be like an Uber dispatcher, and earns fees and commissions by running a taxi service efficiently. I think.
