Riding the momentum of her latest release 'Baby Do Die Do', where she essays the role of a deaf-mute assassin, earlier, Qureshi reflected on the evolving landscape of women in action. While talking to ANI, "I'm playing a female hitwoman who can't hear or speak. That is not a disability or a weakness but actually her strength. There is a stereotype of a hitman always being a male. But why can't it be a woman?"

A Promising Phase for Women in Action

Speaking about the growing space for women-led action films, Huma Qureshi emphasised how the current time marks a promising phase for action films led by women, driven by changing audience expectations and greater representation of women across professions. "I don't think we're going anywhere," she said, pointing out that women today are making their mark in every sphere of life, from journalism and acting to the police and armed forces.
