Rohi Bano (Interview)

Rohi bano (Interview) Rohi Bano after her illness appears first time on any TV channel.

Although she has been issued a discharge certificate, declaring her fully recovered both mentally and physically, the painful memory of her son untimely death coupled with the callousness of the entertainment industry towards her plight still lurks deep within her soul, tormenting her.

One of the finest acting talents in the country, Roohi Bano was admitted to the medical facility in 2005 for the treatment of schizophrenia. She has now recovered and says that the task of bringing to justice the culprits responsible for her son death is central to her.

Roohi Bano is known for possessing the rare quality of conveying feelings and expressions through her eyes. As an actress, she exercised full command over her emotions and knew how best to translate them into action and convert them into pieces of unforgettable drama. She says she desperately misses her co-stars of yesteryear such as Shafi Mohammad, Talat Hussain, Uzma Gillani and the late Tahira Naqvi

Roohi first television appearance was in a quiz show while she was still a student. Then, Farooq Zameer offered her a chance to act in plays which she accepted while continuing her studies for a Master degree in psychology from Government College, Lahore. She married twice and also acted in a few films but television was where she belonged, and it remained her first love.

Given the condition she was in before treatment, her recovery has been likened to her character in one of her famous long plays, Darwaza. In the play produced by Muhammad Nisar Hussian in the 1980s, she plays a TB patient who recovers miraculously.

Television had found a great actress in Roohi Bano and her repeatedly outstanding performances in Qila Kahani, Zard Gulab, Hairatkada, Darwaza, Kiran Kahani, along with several other serials and long plays, set her head and shoulders above her contemporaries. The sensitivity with which she played her roles made her popular across the country to the effect that many of Roohi's fans still remember her as a charming actress par excellence, who ruled the small screen for nearly two decades.
