It was followed by a role in PTV's Tera Pyar Nahi Bhoole.[3][5] She was paired opposite Ahsan Khan in both the series. Both of which garnered her Lux Style Award nominations for Best Television Actress,[3][13] followed by Khalida Ki Walida, Main Aisa Kyun Hoon, Nazar and Two In One.

Reviewer from Daily Pakistan considered it along with Digest Writer as "one of the best performances of Qamar".[29] The series received five nominations at Hum Awards including Qamar for best actress.[citation needed] She next appeared in Izteraab. Her performance as the working women did not go well and despite the strong cast, story, production house and promotions, the drama turned out to be a major critical and commercial Disaster.[30] She then appeared for Wajahat Rauf's directed anthology series Shareek-e-Hayat for Hum TV.

Qamar appeared in three series in 2015.

Note
  1. ↑ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They recognize several different recipients, have runners-up and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.
