Pakistan’s acclaimed actress Saba Qamar has opened up about one of the most challenging chapters of her life revealing that extreme mental stress led her to suffer heart pain and eventually undergo angiography.

Speaking candidly on the Green Entertainment Podcast, the Case No. 9 star reflected on how emotional struggles can manifest physically.

“We all think we’re strong enough to handle everything,” she shared. “But the pain and emotions we suppress eventually show up sometimes as anxiety, panic attacks, or even heart problems.”

Saba revealed that she recently endured a mild heart attack, followed by an angiography, but thankfully, she is now recovering well.

She said doctors explained that heart issues in young people are not always linked to cholesterol often, unhealed emotional pain and prolonged stress can deeply affect one’s body.

The Pani Jaisa Pyar actress emphasized the importance of taking mental health seriously, urging others not to ignore even minor signs of distress.

“When I tried to speak about my mental state in the past, people dismissed it, saying I had everything fame and success. But mental health isn’t about wealth or status,” she said.

Her openness serves as a powerful reminder that behind every smile, there may be silent and that caring for one's mind is just as vital as caring for one's body.
