Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien said she was 'in love' with her co-star as she put on a dazzling pink display. The actress, known for playing Sarah Barlow in the ITV soap, was responding to a string of snaps posted by Sair Khan on Instagram.
Sair, who portrays Alya Nazir in Corrie, took to the 'Gram to share a look at her glam for the recent TV Choice Awards as well as post some selfies taken with her soap pals. The actress looked stunning in a figure-hugging, Barbie pink dress which skimmed her curves before finishing at her ankles.
The soap beauty added a pair of barely-there silver heels while her luscious dark were slicked back behind her ears so the classic curls elegantly travelled down her back.

"TV Choice awards w/ Coronation Street," Sair captioned the snap with the comments section soon being flooded with compliments from her Corrie co-stars. Maria Windass actress Samia Longchambon added flame and heart emojis before penning: "Absolute beauty."
Tina replied: "I’m in love," alongside a string of flame and love heart eye emojis. Sally Carman, who stars as Abi Webster in the ITV soap, wrote: " Good grief woman." Shona Platt actress Julia Goulding, posted: "So beautiful." And Corrie's Beth Sutherland star added: "Wow! You look amazing!!!"
And fans were just as complimentary. @martinealexander said: "Absolutely stunning!!" @tessasandersoncbe commented: "Looks absolutely fab in Pink...go Sair." @keith.johnston2672 shared: "Wow you look amazing." @stev.efrench69 added: "Just an insanely beautiful Goddess."
Sair's glam display comes as her character is embroiled in a controversial storyline that is going to lead to a new duo forming on the Corrie cobbles. Last week fans of the soap were left fans feeling sick as Alya and newcomer Daryan were subjected toracist abuse.
Troubled teen Max Turner, played by Paddy Bever, had befriended Daryan but has been turned against him by the gang led by eco-warrior Griff. He was lured in further into the gang after being introduced to new love interest Lauren.
And it wasn't long before Lauren claimed that Daryan had made her feel uncomfortable while waiting for Max to finish work at Speed Daal with his former friend. She then seduced Max after the pair confronted an upset Daryan, who had only made polite conversation with Lauren.
When boss Alya backed him, saying said he did nothing wrong, Lauren seethed: "Your lot always stick together." In another episode, after Alya called out the racisim, she discovered her family's restauent had been targeted with paint and after another confrontation, later, Daryan was pounced on by a masked gang as he left Speed Daal.
Dramatic new first-look pictures for upcoming Corrie scenes show Alya and Maria being watched by members of a far-right extremist gang. The sinister spoiler photos show the ladies monitored and intimidated from a car. Suddenly it appears the pair are caught in the crossfire as armed police swoop on the gang.
