Merub Ali has shared her appreciation for fellow actresses Dananeer Mobeen and Romaisa Khan, praising their acting abilities and recognising how social media has helped them build careers in Pakistan’s entertainment industry.
During a recent conversation, Merub spoke positively about Dananeer, describing her as a talented individual. She also acknowledged the opportunities social media has created for emerging artists, explaining that platforms like Instagram can help aspiring performers gain recognition and find their way into showbiz.

Speaking about Dananeer, Merub expressed happiness that social media had played a part in bringing her into the entertainment industry. She suggested that without these platforms, it might have been considerably more difficult for emerging talents like Dananeer to establish themselves.
The discussion also revisited the criticism Dananeer faced when she entered television with the drama Sinf-e-Aahan. At the time, some viewers questioned her casting and viewed her primarily as a social media influencer rather than an actress.
However, Merub defended her abilities, pointing out that Dananeer demonstrated her potential through her very first acting project.
Her comments highlight how digital platforms can provide opportunities to people who might otherwise struggle to get noticed by the entertainment industry.
Merub also had encouraging words for Romaisa Khan, agreeing with the host’s positive observations about her performances.
She appreciated Romaisa’s expressive eyes, beauty and ability to take on different kinds of roles. Merub further acknowledged that social media had helped Romaisa access opportunities and make her presence felt in the entertainment world.
Her remarks reflect the growing influence of digital creators in Pakistani television and entertainment, where online popularity can sometimes become a starting point for acting careers.
The entertainment industry has increasingly welcomed personalities who first gained public attention through social media. Dananeer Mobeen and Romaisa Khan are among the names who have moved beyond their digital presence and explored acting opportunities.
Merub’s comments also bring attention to an important aspect of this transition: online popularity may open doors, but an actor’s ability to perform ultimately shapes how audiences receive them.
By appreciating both actresses, Merub highlighted the importance of recognising emerging talent rather than judging performers solely by their backgrounds.
