Khatija Iqbal: You need to present yourself in the right way on social media

Actor Khatija Iqbal, who is known for her films such as Namaste England, Ragini MMS Returns and Jamai Raja and has also done a cameo role in Inside Edge 3, says that, for her, social media has always been a tool to present yourself and your work to the world.

So, Khatija Iqbal says, that the amount of engagement depends on how much you want to showcase. “I believe it’s person to person and it’s okay to not be so active on social media. I agree it is important, especially when you are excited about putting your new work out there. You want people to know your capabilities as an actor, of course, and a sense of achievement adds to it,” she says.

However, she says that it’s important to present yourself in the right manner. “I think it is important how you are presenting yourself. If you get this right, you will get the right attention which wouldn’t make your followers think you are fake or vice versa,” Khatija Iqbal says.

Khatija isn’t someone who is very comfortable with posting personal pictures but doesn’t mind doing it at times. “I go through that dilemma all the time as I am quite reserved in that matter. But sometimes, I feel that you have a wonderful audience to cater to and why not just dress up! Pose and post!” she says.

Ask her who she loves to follow on social media, and Khatija Iqbal says, “I follow a couple of them for a number of different reasons, health, fashion, travels, so I don’t really have a favourite. I feel that social media is a great platform to showcase the great qualities and talent of a new artist and performer. It’s all up to you and what you want to achieve from your audience.”
