Huma Qureshi: Best birthday gift was when dad got me my first car in college

Actor Huma Qureshi, who turns a year older today, shares that her birthday this year is going to be a low key affair — she would be celebrating with her family in Mumbai.

Actor Huma Qureshi has had quite a busy year so far. It began with the Akshay Kumar-starrer Jolly LLB 2, which did well at the box-office. After this, she got busy promoting her debut Hollywood film at international film festivals in London. Currently, the actor is looking forward to the release of the film in India.

Actor Huma Qureshi will next be seen in Partition 1947 that releases in India in August this year.

On her birthday today, asked if there are any special plans in store, she says, “Well, since I am busy shooting here and there, and I have been really busy travelling too, so it will be a very low key affair this year, with just family [in Mumbai only].”Besides promoting her international project across India, Huma is also busy with the shooting of her Tamil film Kaala Karikalan (in Chennai) where she’s paired opposite superstar Rajinikanth.

While all birthdays have been special for Huma, she shares that the most cherished was the one when her brother, actor Saqib Saleem did something special for her in their childhood days. “Saqib gave me a handmade card, where he had pasted a picture of the whole family together and wished me happy birthday. For me, it was the cutest thing ever,” recalls Huma, adding, “I’m always up for surprises.”
