Gulfam Khan Hussain: I don't believe in the tag of 'best' friend

Actress Gulfam Khan Hussain, who is part of the show Gehna- Zewar Ya Zanjeer, says that she has never believed in having just one close friend. The actress adds that she has a group of friends who she is very close to. 

“Friends are the family you choose. I have a bunch of friends, and I feel blessed to have them. I don't believe in the tag of 'best' friend, just like a parent can't say that one child is their 'favourite.' I can't say that any one friend is the best,” she says.

She adds, “Friendship, to me, is sacred. Loyalty means everything. Just like with siblings, you might fight or have differences, but you know you'll always be there for each other. You'll always have each other's backs. My oldest friend is Maitri (coincidentally, her name means 'Friendship'). We've been friends since we were three years old. We have a group of five friends from school who are constantly in touch. Other childhood friends I'm still very close to include Sameera Menezes Pinto and Qamar Baig Jangid. I'm like the non-biological daughter of the Baig family. I also have close friends in the industry.”
The actress adds that her friends mean the world to her. “In a few words, I have quite a few friends who are there for life. I have their backs, and they have mine. As the lyrics of the famous sitcom FRIENDS go: I'll be there for you (When the rain starts to pour) I'll be there for you (Like I've been there before) I'll be there for you ('Cause you're there for me too)"
