For Saba Qamar, working on upcoming legal drama Case No. 9 was like ‘magic’
Saba Qamar felt healed through the “magic” journey of working on her upcoming television show, Case No. 9, a chapter she didn’t even know she needed.
In a heartfelt note posted to her Instagram, the actor said she thought she had seen it all over her 20 years in the entertainment industry until she started working on her latest project.
“From the moment I stepped onto the set, 7th Sky Entertainment embraced me with a kind of love and respect that moved me to tears. They didn’t just treat me like a queen; they showed it in every action, in their care, in their humanity.”
Qamar revealed that behind the scenes, she cried, laughed until her stomach hurt, poured her heart into the project, and in return, it gave back to her “even more.”
“Every single person from the crew to the cast felt like family. There was warmth in every gesture, every early call time, every late wrap. I’ve grown, I’ve learned, and above all, I’ve felt truly seen.”
She dedicated a huge part of the magic to the “incredible direction”, lauding the show’s director, Syed Wahajat Hussain, for leading with “heart, precision, and deep sensitivity”, adding that their vision brought every moment to life with truth and beauty.
The Kamli actor acknowledged the roles of producers Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi, whose “faith, support, and relentless dedication created the foundation for Case No. 9 to become what it is.”
She lauded their professional and “deeply human” leadership, and expressed her gratitude for being a part of their vision.
“The set they built wasn’t just a location, it was a world. A safe, creative, and loving world. The kind every artist dreams of working in.”
Qamar thanked Shahzeb Khanzada, the journalist and writer of the show, for the powerful, layered and sensitive script. “We carried it with care, and we gave it our 100 per cent.
“Case No. 9 isn’t just a drama. For me, it’s a memory stitched with love and hard work. I can’t wait to share it with you all.”
She concluded her note by thanking everyone for making the project a special experience, adding that they left a mark on her heart.
Her fellow co-star Aamina Sheikh commented on her post and wrote that Qamar’s post made her cry.
“Every word is true! What a journey, what an experience, unlike any other! Indeed, your words ring true for all of us 100 times over! Thank you for all that you gave and all that you are,” she wrote.
According to pictures posted by Qamar, the show is a courtroom drama and legal thriller, with the cast including Sheikh, Faysal Quraishi, Hina Khwaja Bayat, Navin Waqar and Mirza Gohar Rasheed.
