Having gained substantial fame for her act, she later appeared in "Atash-bas" (Ceasefire), a major hit, and "Salad-e Fasl" (Season Salad).

Afshar wrote on Twitter in October 2019 that she and Yasin Ramin had divorced. ”Each person, strong or weak, has an existence. But when you decide to be a single mum, you have to have two existences. You have to be strong for yourself and your child."[5]
