Neeli, a celebrated former star of the Pakistani film industry, is remembered for her magnetic personality and exceptional acting talent.

Her notable films include “Aakhri Jung,” “Mola Baksh,” “Mushkil,” “Chief Saheb,” “Allah Dad,” “Insaniyat Ki Dushman,” “Ameer Khan,” “International Gorillas,” and “Sakhi Badshah,” among others.

Remarkably, Neeli left the entertainment industry at the peak of her career and remains the only former Pakistani actress who has not returned to the screen.

Fans and friends continue to seek updates on her life.

Recently, prominent writer Nasir Adib shed light on the reasons behind Neeli’s departure from the media industry and how she has been living since then.

He revealed that after a painful breakup with actor Javed Sheikh, Neeli was approached by a mafia leader who proposed to her. Following her rejection of his proposal, the man threatened her, asserting his influence.

Adib reported that Neeli subsequently concluded her ongoing projects and vanished from public view.

She communicated through unknown phone numbers to arrange her shoots, insisting on their swift completion.

She also announced her intent to leave the media industry for good.

Despite the perception that no one would want to marry her after her exit, Neeli received a marriage proposal from a loyal individual who accepted her despite the surrounding threats.

They lived together in Pakistan for several years and have two children.

Since her departure, Neeli has not looked back. Her only remaining connection to the industry appears to be with Aziz Memon, who once took Adib to visit her.

When asked about a potential return to acting, she firmly declined and requested that their meeting remain confidential.

Reflecting on Neeli’s debut, Nasir Adib recalled how he approached his friend Yunus Malik to find new faces for his film.

Neeli’s intelligence, educational background, and impressive expressions caught his attention, leading him to cast her.
