alisketchez Painted Hania Aamir — And Now Forbes Has Made It Official
We Painted Her Before the World Recognised Her. Now the World Has Caught Up.
At alisketchez.pk, we have always believed that the most powerful portraits are painted before the rest of the world tells you why they matter.
We painted Hania Aamir because any artist with eyes and instinct could see it immediately — here is a face that carries something extraordinary. Here is a person whose talent, authenticity, and genuine human warmth demand to be captured in handmade art.
On May 30, 2026 — the world caught up with what we already knew.
Forbes Magazine — one of the most prestigious and globally respected publications on earth — officially named Hania Aamir to the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia 2026 list in the Entertainment and Sports category.
Actor Hania Aamir has been listed in Forbes' 30 Under 30 Asia 2026 list in the Entertainment and Sports category — a list that recognises young professionals under the age of 30 who have made notable contributions in their fields. Favikon
Pakistan erupted with pride. Social media celebrated. And here at alisketchez — we looked at the handmade oil portrait of Hania Aamir already hanging in our studio and felt something profound.
We painted a Forbes 30 Under 30 icon.
Who Is Hania Aamir — Pakistan's Most Celebrated Young Star
For the international audience now discovering Hania Aamir through Forbes — and for the Pakistani audience who has loved her for years — here is the story of the woman behind the recognition.
Hania Aamir is one of Pakistan's most popular television stars. She recently became the most-followed Pakistani woman on Instagram, surpassing 20 million followers. The actor has built a strong career in television over the past decade with several hit dramas — including Mere Humsafar, Meri Zindagi Hai Tu, and Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. Instagram
She is also set to star in Pakistan's first Netflix original — Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo. The actor is also actively involved in social work, having been named UN Women's National Goodwill Ambassador in October. News24
Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia is widely regarded as one of the world's most influential talent spotlights, often propelling young achievers into global visibility. Bollywood Life
And Hania Aamir — with 20 million Instagram followers, a decade of acclaimed performances, a Netflix original on the horizon, and a UN ambassadorship — is exactly the kind of achiever this list was created to celebrate.
Last year, Pakistan did not have any representatives in the list's entertainment category. This year — Hania Aamir changed that. Alone. For all of Pakistan. Favikon
She is not just a star. She is a national achievement.
The alisketchez Portrait — How We Captured Pakistan's Forbes Icon
Creating a handmade portrait of Hania Aamir was one of the most rewarding artistic challenges in alisketchez's nearly decade-long history.
Here is why — and here is how we approached it.
The Challenge of Painting Someone the Whole Nation Knows
When you paint someone as universally loved and recognised as Hania Aamir — you are not just painting a face. You are painting a feeling. A relationship that millions of Pakistani viewers have built with her through years of watching her perform, laugh, cry, and express herself on screen.
Every person who sees this portrait has their own mental image of Hania Aamir. Their own favourite drama. Their own memory of a scene that moved them. The artist's task is to honour all of that — to create a portrait that feels true not just to how she looks but to who she is.
That is the standard we held ourselves to. And that is what drove every decision in this painting.
👁️ The Eyes — Capturing What Makes Her Unforgettable
Hania Aamir gained widespread acclaim following her breakthrough performance in the television drama Phir Wohi Mohabbat. Anyone who has watched that performance — or any of her performances since — knows what her eyes can do. Entertales
They carry warmth. They carry mischief. They carry vulnerability and strength in the same breath. They are the eyes of someone who is completely present in every moment — on screen, off screen, in life.
Capturing that quality in handmade oil paint required more time and attention than any other element of the portrait. We worked on the eyes until they felt alive. Until they felt like her.
🎨 The Colour Palette — Honouring Natural Radiance
Hania Aamir has always been celebrated for her natural beauty and authentic presence. Our colour choices reflected that entirely — warm, rich tones that honour and complement her features without altering or idealising them.
This is not a glamorised version of Hania Aamir. It is a genuine portrait — as close to the real person as skilled human hands on premium canvas can achieve.
🖌️ The Technique — alisketchez Signature Oil Painting
Every portrait at alisketchez is created using our signature handmade oil painting technique on premium stretched canvas. Layers of oil paint — applied with intention, blended with care, built up over time — create a finished piece with depth, richness, and a physical presence that no print or digital artwork can replicate.
This portrait of Hania Aamir received the same treatment. Every brushstroke deliberate. Every layer purposeful. Every hour invested showing in the finished result.
Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia 2026 — Why This Recognition Matters So Much
The Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia list recognises young people from across the Asia-Pacific region in categories ranging from technology and finance to health care, social impact and entertainment. Reviewit
Pakistan marked a strong presence on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia 2026 list, with young achievers recognized across entertainment, tech, science, finance, and social impact. Bollywood Life
But within that strong Pakistani showing — Hania Aamir's inclusion carries a particular weight.
She represents Pakistani entertainment on one of the world's most watched talent platforms. She carries with her the stories of every Pakistani drama she has brought to life. Every character she has inhabited. Every viewer she has moved to tears or to laughter.
Forbes described Aamir as Pakistan's most-followed woman on Instagram, with around 20 million followers, and noted that she rose to prominence after her performance in the television drama Phir Wohi Mohabbat. The publication also said she is set to star in Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo, which it described as Netflix's first Pakistani original series. Reviewit
Hania Aamir on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia is not just her achievement. It is Pakistan's achievement.
And alisketchez is deeply proud to have painted the portrait of a woman the world is now formally recognising as one of Asia's most outstanding young talents.
