Saira also acknowledged her friends, including actress Fareeda Jalal and Dr. Meera Agarwal, for their contributions to her happiness. “I am grateful to have friends like Fareeda Jalal, her son Yaseen, Mani Talati, Mehfooza, Shaista, Azra Lokhandwala Ji, and Moin Beg,” she said, highlighting their role in making her day special.

Concluding her reflection, Saira expressed her belief that the truest measure of life lies in the presence of family and friends, a well-set table, and the thread of love that connects us all. “There are many ways to measure life, but the most meaningful measure surrounds us with loved ones and fills us with love,” she stated.
