In Heeramandi, Hydari plays Bibbojaan, a courtesan who finds herself drawn into India’s freedom struggle. Her character reflects the complicated mix of personal emotions and political change. As Bibbojaan becomes more aware of the rising unrest, she faces an inner conflict between her romantic ties and her growing sense of duty to the larger cause.
