As Tamasha Season 5 moves forward, more contestants are coming to the audience’s notice; the latest being veteran Lollywood actor Laila. She has come forward to gain attention as she breaks down, opening up about her family and downfall. When Esra Ayesha comments that Laila should own a better car after years in the entertainment industry, she rebutes it, explaining that she prefers an SUV over a sedan. The comment about her financial standing after a dedicated career in the showbiz industry hurt her deeply, and she breaks down emotionally before Badshah Salamat (Adnan Siddique).
Opening up about hardships in life, Laila stated that no one likes to lose their family members and fortune willingly; she lost her parents and two brothers, which transformed her life. She also lost the fortune she had built over the years, her cars, house, and savings, which were her hard-earned money. She added that comments were made that she should have safeguarded her fortune when her parents were healthy, which had deeply affected her.
