Early life[edit]
Television[edit]
In 2002, Malik was called by
Prime TV to host a show called
Prime Gupshup[8] for them ushering a new direction for her comedic skills and she improvised on the hour-long show occasionally mimicking actors.
In October 2010, Malik appeared in the Indian television reality show
Bigg Boss Season 4.
[11] She was evicted two weeks before the finals, and was one of the final six contestants out of the original fourteen who had participated.
In February 2011,
[18] Veena Malik became part of the Cricket World Cup reality show
[19] in Delhi, India, called "Big Toss." Big Toss was a reality game show with contestants and Malik as the captain of one team, against
Rakhi Sawant[20] and her team.
In March 2011, Malik engaged in a passionate debate with a
mufti, who claimed she had engaged in immoral behaviour as a contestant on
Bigg Boss, even though he admitted to not having watched the show. Malik countered pointing out the double standards of Pakistani media against women among other rebuttals.
[21]
Another show
Veena Malik – ‘Veena Ka Vivah’ was planned where Malik would search for her soul-mate, but the show was cancelled when
Imagine TV, the channel on which the show was being shown, announced that it was shutting down.
[22] Malik collected almost 71,000 entries from all over the world for the show.
[23]
Before starting her career off as an actress, Malik worked as a comedian for several television shows and series. She made her acting debut alongside
Shaan and
Zara Sheikh in Askari's
Tere Pyar Mein (2000), which was a box office hit. She played a supporting role in the film and was barely acknowledged. Later on, she appeared in a supporting role in
Javed Sheikh's
Yeh Dil Aap Ka Huwa (2002).
[24]
In 2003, Malik appeared in Indo-Pak cross venture Punjabi film
Pind Di Kudi which failed commercially, however, it was the first Indo-Pak venture film with a budget of approximately 70 million rupees. She also appeared in Askari's
Sassi Punno (2003) alongside
Sana and
Moammar Rana, however the film failed to do well at Lahore's cinemas and further screenings stopped in cinemas after a week of its release. She then appeared in Rafique's
Jageer. In 2005, she appeared in a short Punjabi film
Bau Badmash (2005) which also failed to garner any recognition. Her breakthrough role was in Reema Khan's
Koi Tujh Sa Kahan which was a commercial success in Pakistan.
In 2008, Malik appeared in Rafique's Punjabi film,
Mohabbatan Sachiyan, alongside ex-fiancee
Babrik Shah and newcomers Maria Khan and Adnan Khan. The film went on to become a commercial success.
[25] The same year, she appeared in Raza's
Kabhi Pyar Na Karna in a supporting role, but the film was a flop. Her last film of 2008 was Altaf's
Ishq Beparwah, which also failed to impress the audience. In 2010, she worked in Rafique's
Main Jeena Tere Naal, and Beyg's debut comedy film
Miss Duniya.
In 2012, Malik debuted in
Bollywood with an
item song in
Gali Gali Mein Chor Hai entitled "Chhanno" which was a big hit. Then in the same month she did another item song "Fann Ban Gayi" in
Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya. Then she made her acting debut with a comedy
Daal Mein Kuch Kaala Hai. The film didn't do well at the box office but Malik's performance was widely acclaimed. In 2013, her first film was Rajiv S. Ruia's social drama
Zindagi 50 50 in which she played a prostitute. Her bold avatar in film was a big break in her career. The film did average at the box office. She appeared in the music video "Ac Chala Garmi Badi Hai" sung by
Sukhdeep Grewal. Then she made a special appearance in Punjabi film,
Jatts In Golmaal in an item song "Shabboo". She then made her
Kannada film debut and appeared in
Dirty Picture: Silk Sakkath Hot in which she portrayed the life of Southern actress
Silk Smitha for which she gained 5 kg.
[26] The film was a hit in the South and her performance was appreciated. Her last film of 2013 was
Super Model. She was in an avatar never seen before and shed seven kilos for it. The film won The Most Stylish Film Award on International standards. Malik played a supermodel, a small town girl who manages to get big in the fashion industry. Her last Bollywood film was
Hemant Madhukar's
Mumbai 125 KM 3D that released on October 17, 2014. The film was shot using
RealD 3D. It was the first time in Malik's career that she played a ghost.
Personal life[edit]
Malik married businessman Asad Bashir Khan Khattak in a private ceremony in 2013 in
Dubai. She gave birth to Abram Khan Khattak on September 23, 2014.

[34] and has sued the magazine over the images.
[35]
Sentenced for blasphemy[edit]

The judge sentenced Malik and Bashir and TV host Shaista Wahidi to 26 years each.
