Husna
Husna was a Pakistani film actress in the late 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. She was first introduced as a child star in film Jan-e-Bahar (1958) and played the daughter of Sudhir and Musarrat Nazir. She appeared in such films as Changez Khan (1958) and Ajab Khan (1961).[1]

Then came her big breakthrough in the block buster film Ajab Khan (1961), starring again opposite Sudhir. She appeared in Rani Khan (1960) and Dosti (1971), among other musical films.
