The Pakistani entertainment industry was left in shock following the tragic news of actor and model Humaira Asghar Ali\u2019s passing. Gizri Police confirmed on Tuesday that the 35-year-old\u2019s body was discovered in her Karachi apartment, where it had likely remained for nearly 20 days.<\/p>\n

The grim discovery was made when her landlord, accompanied by a court bailiff and police officers, arrived to execute a court-ordered eviction due to non-payment of rent.<\/p>\n

Humaira had reportedly stopped paying rent in early 2024, though she had been living in the third-floor flat in Ittehad Commercial area of DHA Phase VI since 2018. The flat\u2019s main door was locked from the inside, prompting authorities to break it open. The actor\u2019s body was found in an advanced state of decomposition.<\/p>\n

According to SHO Farooq Sanjrani of Gizri Police Station, there were no immediate signs of foul play or forced entry. Crime Scene Unit investigators collected forensic evidence from the scene, and the body was moved to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre for post-mortem examination.<\/p>\n

Initial assessment suggests natural causes, but the exact cause of death will be determined after the autopsy. The flat has since been sealed, and the investigation remains ongoing. Police have yet to locate any of Humaira\u2019s family members. She was believed to be living alone with limited contact, which contributed to the delay in discovering her death.<\/p>\n

Entertainment industry mourns<\/p>\n

Humaira carved a space for herself in showbiz over the past decade. She rose to fame after winning Veet Miss Super Model in 2014 and appearing in reality show Tamasha Ghar (2022). Humaira\u2019s acting credits include TV series such as Laali, and films Jalaibee (2015) and Love Vaccine (2021). For her artistic contributions, she was awarded the National Woman Leadership Award in 2023.<\/p>\n

Her sudden passing has left fans and colleagues stunned, as tributes pour in across social media.<\/p>\n

Veteran actor Humayun Saeed took to Instagram, expressing \u201cDeeply sorry for this sudden and shocking loss. May Allah Bless Humaira\u2019s soul. Heartfelt condolences\u201d<\/p>\n

. <\/p>\n

Adnan Siddiqui, who also hosted Tamasha, where Asghar was a participant, wrote on Instagram, \u201cInna lillahi wah inna ilayhi raji\u2019un. Deeply shocked and saddened. A young life cut so short suddenly. May you be in peace Humaira and your family get the strength to deal with the vacuum you have left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former co-star Atiqa Odho, also posted a photo with Asghar from their drama Ehsaan Faramosh, stating \u201cWoke up to this shocking and tragic news. Unbelievable as she had so much life to look forward to. We worked in Ehsaan Faramosh serial together and she was such a gentle soul. Never thought that she would leave us so soon. I hope the authorities get to the truth and we find out what happened to Humaira Asghar so that we may be able to help others in the future before we lose them in this unfortunate manner. Tragic, tragic, tragic. Humaira, may you rest in peace my dear, wherever you are. Ameen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ali Rahman Khan, also wrote a heartfelt message on Instagram, saying \u201cReally tragic news. She was a thorough professional who took pride in her work. She always spoke to me with kindness and respect. I only have the most pleasant memories of her. May Allah bless her and watch over her in the afterlife.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beloved actor, Faysal Quraishi, also voiced his condolences on social media, pleading with people \u201cto keep a check on those who live alone\u201d.<\/p>\n

Iconic singer, Zoheb Hassan, also posted on his Facebook, voicing \u201cThis is such sad news and not the first time this has happened in Karachi where single women have been found dead in their apartments. Reports say her death was natural causes. I still urge the Government of Pakistan to initiate a thorough investigation and ensure the safety of our daughters, sisters and mothers living alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Udaari actor Hina Altaf echoed the same sentiments as him, expressing on her Instagram, \u201cShe lived alone. She passed away alone. And days went by without anyone even noticing. This isn\u2019t just a loss, it\u2019s a wake up call. Check in on your friends and also people who never asked. May Allah forgive her and give her the highest rank in Jannah. May Allah give strength to souls who are battling so quietly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mawra Hocane, Ahmed Ali Butt, Madiha Imam and Sadaf Kanwal also reacted to the news with sadness.<\/p>\n

This tragedy feels all the more heartbreaking as it reflects a growing and deeply unsettling pattern – following reports of veteran actor Ayesha Khan\u2019s passing, also alone and in similarly isolating circumstances.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
