\u201cI just worked hard and became a star,\u201d she furthered, insisting that this clarity was instrumental in establishing her success in the field and in personal life. \u201cAfter film world, I continued to play many roles in my real life. First I was a daughter, then I became a wife, then a mother – the film of life will keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked about her beauty, Reema revealed her positive outlook on life that involves centring her mental health. \u201cI love myself very much. I also take good care of my mental and physical health, this is the secret to my beauty as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
