What Mahira said

When asked about the decision to share such a big and intimate moment with fans, Mahira said: “It feels like every single thing that went wrong… Let me put it in a better way… for every time that I was good in some way, I was kind, or looked after people around me. It was as if god put it all together and blessed me and said, ‘Here this is for the good that you have done.’ It felt like that moment. I was constantly saying Alhamdulillah. It was a very big moment for me because I had always imagined my life to be me and Azlan…”

She added, “This was a very big moment. I was very proud of my child… I wanted him to walk me down the aisle, so he did!”
