At that time cinema had started, but women were shy of working in films. In such a situation, whenever a heroine was required for a film, the producers used to go to the abode of courtesans.

This is how Heeramandi's Naggo became a Pakistani actress

It is said that Niggo was once hosting a gathering in Heeramandi. As always, there was a crowd in his gathering. Then a Pakistani producer went in search of a heroine for his film. When he saw the crowd at the brothel, he himself became a part of it. He was impressed by the beauty and dance of traditional dancer Nargis and after some time he offered her his film and Nargis immediately agreed to work in films.

But his family's means of livelihood ended and after marriage, Niggo also stopped working in films. Niggo's family wanted to call him back to Hiramandi but they did not succeed.

The husband himself shot and killed her.

When Niggo did not agree to return to Heeramandi, his mother pretended to be unwell and called him back to Heeramandi. When she reached there, the family started listening to her and when Niggo did not return home, her husband started getting worried. When he came to pick her up a few days later, she refused to go.
