She completed her schooling at the prestigious Karachi Grammar School. Hareem does not have a showbiz background. Both her parents are doctors. Her mother is a dermatologist, while her father is a Ph.D. in public health services. Her parents have always been very supportive of Hareem’s choices in life. However, they always maintained that she must complete her graduation before she pursues her dreams. Hence, Hareem graduated from Quaid-e-Azam University, completing her BA in Sociology and Journalism.
Career:
Hareem paved her way to the big screen after a lot of hard work and commitment. She started her career in theatre. Hareem asserts that theatre taught her the most about acting. In 2012, she played the role of Fatima Jinnah in the play Pawnay 14 August, written by the legendary Anwer Maqsood. She also aced the role of Jehan Ara, originally played by Bushra Ansari, in the rendition of the famous play, Angan Terha. Hareem’s stunning performances did not go unnoticed.

She showed her acting skills in the drama, Mere Humdum Mere Dost, in which she played the negative role.
However, the drama that got Hareem to the pinnacle of success was Diyar-e-Dil. To date, it is one of the most acclaimed drama serials on Hum TV. Her elaborate role allowed her to demonstrate her acting skills to the best. She transformed from a young vulnerable girl to an old strong woman in the serial, going through a turmoil of emotions as she made compromises for her family. Fans loved the chemistry between the actors so much that they appeared together in another play soon after. Sanem was a love triangle drama alongside Osman Khalid Butt and Maya Ali.
