Nadia Hussain will play the baddie in her next drama

Nadia Hussain has been a busy bee with her newest salon branch opening up at LuckyOne Mall but that's not all that's on her plate.

The actor is working on a new Hum TV drama, which will be directed by Haseeb Ali, where she will play the baddie.

Speaking to Images, she said, "I'm playing a negative character. The drama stars Sawera Nadeem and her daughter in the drama, Kinza Hashmi. I play Sawera's sister-in-law and Akhtar Hasnain plays my husband."

While she couldn't say much about the drama - or even reveal the name - she did say, "The story is about one household which has its fair share of ups and down. There are issues regarding financial situations and marriages and overall the politics within a family."

While many dramas have a villainous character causing wreckage on a peaceful home, Nadia Hussain does hope to accomplish something with her character.

"Playing a negative role, I do hope that people who have similar traits as my character will be able to learn about being better. Maybe they'll see how their bad intent affects those around them and the impact they make on others. "

There is no release date for the untitiled drama but Nadia speculates it'll be out be December.
