Pakistani star Ayeza Khan shows her love for her husband while celebrating the New Year

I want to enjoy every moment of life says Pakistani star Sonya Hussyn

Ayeza Khan shared a long post on Instagram yesterday regarding the increase in the number of followers, in which she first thanked all her fans who followed her and made her the most followed actress in Pakistan.

She said, “Thank you guys so much for the love and respect! It is exciting to have such a huge number of followers on here.”

“But I must say that the only reason I am able to celebrate this today is that I know how hard I worked to achieve whatever I have on this day,” she explains.

“But I wanna say one thing: I never focused my work and life towards getting a bigger number of followers. It never works in the long run. My mother has always taught me that it’s important to work hard and build your legacy and be patient. When you have those all the good stuff comes without you knowing, the “Meray Pass Tum Ho” star added.

“Growing number of followers doesn’t guarantee a long-term success if you’re hollow from the inside. There is a reason why someone with a few thousand followers on Instagram can have more influence on people than someone with tons of millions of followers. Please don’t be the fool that runs after numbers," she advised her followers.

The beautiful star further said, “The fruit of hard work is always the sweetest. So be what you wanna be but always strive for a long-term success rather than enjoying a mere number of likes you got on your last post.”

“For me, I never worked towards growing my Instagram numbers. Instead, I have always focused all my energy into my work, my acting and modelling especially, and the fan following grew itself. and I’m thankful to all of you guys because It feels great to have so many people recognise your talent and work, rather than blindly tapping that follow button and not even knowing what I actually do.”

At last, she said, “I love you guys, thank you!"

Former film star Rema Khan commented on Ayeza Khan's post and said, "Accept my hearty congrats for having teeming millions as your followers on Instagram.This is all because of your zeal, passion and devotion to your professional pursuit. Keep it up and have a brighter future.”
