Yasmeen has on occasions been compared by viewers to Zainab Masood in rival show EastEnders.

2014-[]
Yasmeen and her family moved to Coronation Street in 2014. Yasmeen was known for being bossy and fesity. In 2016, Yasmeen found out that Sharif was having an affair so she threw him out. Yasmeen later dated local radio DJ Geoff Metcalfe. A recipe for disaster. At first he was charming but then started to control and criticise her. Geoff and Yasmeen later married but he kept monitoring her every move and even installed CCTV. In 2020, Geoff cruelly held a knife to her, wanting to kill her. In the end, Yasmeen retaliated and stabbed Geoff in the neck, leaving him on the floor, bleeding. Seems she took tips from Anna Windass on self defence.
