Veteran Pakistani actor Rubina Ashraf sat down for a heartfelt chat on TV show Good Morning Pakistan<\/a> with host Nida Yasir where she offered valuable counsel to newlywed girls on cultivating a successful married life, emphasising the importance of the relationship\u2019s early years.<\/p>\n

Ashraf said, \u201cThere are four [primary] responsibilities: home, in-laws, your husband, and your child. All four are tasks that take time. I tell every girl that the first ten years of [marriage]…they sound too many, but in reality, they pass by quickly, but the first ten years of married life are an investment.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The actor insisted, \u201cIf you invest them right, then you can count on the fruits [of a well-nurtured marriage].\u201d Ashraf also delved into the crucial aspect of raising children and shared how mothers, just like their children, also undergo different stages in their lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen these stages pass and you look back on them, you see where you went wrong,\u201d Ashraf pointed out, underscoring the need for reflexivity. \u201cI was doing my best like any mother,\u201d she further relayed her experiences as a working mother who had to streamline her acting career alongside her maternal obligations.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow I feel I should have been a little relaxed,\u201d the actor expressed, disclosing how she was a strict parent. \u201cIf it\u2019s time to change clothes, then you have to do it. If you\u2019re misbehaving in the car, I\u2019ll stop driving, open the door, and tell my child to walk,\u201d Rubina recounted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cI was that kind of strict when I needed to be.\u201d The actor also contended that motherhood is a work in progress where you keep learning and re-learning. \u201cI was a confident mother. At the same time, learning from other people and trying to achieve certain things.\u201d<\/p>\n
