Her subsequent plays like “Sawan” and “Mohabbat Ka Ek Pehar” had not only brought her name and fame but reinforced her capabilities as one of the very sensitive and skilful actresses of her times. Having previously done her direction course from Delhi, it was not difficult for her to soon take over the director’s baton, starting off with her debut venture “Kal” shown both on PTV and Geo TV. This was soon to be followed by a series of episodes she directed for PTV, entitled “Qurbaton Ke Silsilay”.

As an actress she has so far acted in more than 13 serials and in a slightly different capacity has also acted as the presenter of Aaj TV’s morning show “Aaj Subah”, continuing one more of Pakistan TV’s practice of using celebrities from the acting and glamour world to host daily general purpose morning shows. Savera is quite serious about drama, and expresses her concerns at the rapid deterioration of standards due to commercialization. Whatever be it, Savera Nadeem would be always remembered in drama circles in Pakistan as one who has been a wonderful combination of solemnity and beauty.
