EastEnders - Nina - 24th Aug

EastEnders is one of the most loved soap operas in the UK, and along with the viewers, the actors on the show are thrilled about their appearances. One such actor is none other than Nina Wadia, popularly known as Zainab Masood in Walford. It seems like Nina cannot wait to return to Albert Square and is waiting for a call from soap bosses. With the 40th show approaching its 40th anniversary, Wadia will be a great add-on! Keep scrolling to know more!

BBC soap star Nina Wadia wants to return to Walford. The actor who became a household name after her role as Zainab Masood on EastEnders has said that she wants to petition the BBC to bring her iconic character back.

Long-time viewers know that Wadia’s character was a regular face in Square from 2007 to 2013. During her stint on the soap, she was involved in some of the biggest storylines, including her abusive relationship with Yusef Khan.

However, the famous actress left the show six years after her debut because she wanted to pursue another career path. Her fans saw her in the first singing role in Now! That’s What I Call A Musical after her departure from the BBC series.

However, now, after spending more than a decade away from Walford, the Zainab actress will return to the soap in a heartbeat. While speaking to The Sun, Wadia said that she would love to return on the show’s 40th anniversary. 

She said, “I loved that show. I loved my time on it. I know they’ve got a big anniversary coming up, and I’m waiting for the call.” Regular viewers know that Jane Beale also made an explosive comeback to the show and told everyone that she is dating Zainab’s ex, Masood. So, if Jane is in Walford, it is just a matter of time before Masood shows up, which might set the stage for Zainab’s return, too.

Fans would obviously love to see Nina back in her old humorous way, and it seems like a petition is already on its way. So, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more such updates on EastEnders! Share your thoughts about Zainab’s return with us in the comments below!
