My oh my, is this girl special  or what? Wherever Veena Malik lands, she garners fans in two shakes of a lamb’s tail. Let’s forget her detractors for a while, for they too are aplenty.

Recently Veena M was in Fiji for the film shoot of Supermodel. During the course of her assignment it turned out that the gal is not just famous in India and Pakistan, but has a big list of admirers in Fiji as well. And the list includes some top-notch individuals, one of them is the island’s attorney-general whose name is Aiyaz Sayed Khiayum. To see the actress up-close the AG went all the way to the spot where Veena M was shooting for the film. He was quoted in a newspaper as saying, “Veena Malik is a glamorous actress. I’ve seen her work and I think she’s a very good actress. She carries herself well off-the-screen as well.”

To this Veena M’s response was, “It was a great experience meeting the attorney-general. I learnt a lot about Fiji from him.” See? She’s already learning something new everyday.
