Pakistani actress and model Azekah Daniel recently shared insights into her career shift from working as an air hostess to becoming a prominent figure in the entertainment industry. In a candid interview, she spoke about her early days in aviation and the challenges she faced while transitioning to acting.
Azekah revealed that she left her job as an air hostess in 2010 to pursue a career in modeling and acting. Despite initial doubts about her abilities, she took the leap, with her first modeling assignment taking her all the way to Japan. “I didn’t think I could act,” Azekah confessed, explaining that after her first project, she took a two-year hiatus before returning to the screen.

During the interview, she also spoke about the harassment she faced as an air hostess. “Many passengers handed me business cards during flights, which I found infuriating but had to stay silent,” she shared. Azekah described this behavior as a form of harassment, calling for more awareness about such incidents.
Azekah also highlighted the broader issue of workplace harassment, emphasizing the need for cultural change and stronger protections for working women. “Some people assume that if a woman is working outside the home, she’s looking for a relationship. We need to change this mindset,” she urged.
