Re: Sidra Iqbal
Early marraige is very relative term ... and the context here it emphasised much on career and pushed a noble institution like marraige on back seat ... It appeared like marraige is some kind of a hurdle in the way of professional career. Based on this understanding i voiced my concerns.
May be my understanding was a bit sketchy. But here i say again But now let me say in general and not particularly about anyone.
Proximity of mid twenties is a very decent age for marraige , even for career oriented females. If you consider it early then i would take strong exception.
There are number of examples where people in showbiz got married at decent time and mannaged very successful career. Likes of Sahira Kazmi , Bushra Ansari, Shazia Khushk, Samina Pirzada and many more ( the list is quite long you know ! )
In MY books--the early time or the age where a girl should not be necessarily tied with bonds of marraige---is 18 through 25. The ideal age, much to the disdain of our seniors of old school of thought, in this fast developing I.T. world...is between 25 to 30. I would give some marks to 30+ even......
Regarding the examples my friend has quoted on marraiges of some showbiz personalities at decent ages---incidently all of them except Shazia--are very closely known to me...I mean both...the hubby n wives and I do agree that they did manage a successful CAREER ! and I repeat CAREER....!
Khush rahein....
