Superstar Mahira Khan played the female lead in Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s Sadqay Tumhare and also received critical acclaim for her performance in the period saga.
The Kaaf Kangana maker cursed himself earlier this year for casting the Hamsafar’s leading lady as ‘Shano’ in his drama serial Sadqay Tumhare. The writer had previously said that he made a mistake while casting Adnan Malik as the male lead as well.
Explaining his ‘hatred’ for the superstar actress, Khalil Ur Rehman re-shared an old tweet of Mahira where she slammed the writer for verbally abusing human rights activist Marvi Sirmed on national television in March 2020.
Khalil tweeted, “Ye hai iss aurat ka wo tweet jo iss ne Marvi Sarmad k sath honay walay incident k aglay din kia tha (This is a tweet by Mahira which she posted after the Marvi Sirmed incident)”
Earlier he confessed on a chat show that he regrets getting on-board the Raees diva in a project based on his own life.
Adding that he’ll always be upset about it, “Zindagi bhar yeh gham rahega.”
Latest Comments
Now in his latest interview, Khalil again commented about his feud with Mahira.
Qamar said, “I will forgive Khan eventually for working on a project based on my life. I have nothing but respect for her, yet she committed a mistake during the infamous Marvi Sarmad incident. Hence she lost out on Mere Paas Tum Ho and London Nahi Jaunga as a punishment, otherwise, she was my first choice for either venture. If not Mere Paas Tum Ho, I would have casted Khan in London Nahi Jaunga (instead of Mehwish Hayat.”
Another Controversy
Last year the Celebrity Premier League series got halt due to the Meray Paas Tum Ho writer’s abusive conduct on the cricket field.
According to reliable sources, Khalil, who was the captain of the Peshawar team got into a tussle with the opponent team members of ‘Rawalpindi Stars’ over a player. He argued that the player’s name wasn’t previously mentioned in the list and lost his cool on the matter.
As a captain, the Pyaray Afzal writer was not allowed to come on the ground but he came and created a havoc, leaving the management and players in shock.
He was reminded that live footage of the league is being presented on mass media and was taken off the ground.
Celebrities like Faysal Qureshi and Aijaz Aslam were also present at the stadium.
“I was shocked to hear the foul language used by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar. Families and children were there too. The man has no manners, no shame. Totally disgraceful,” anchorperson Shahzad Iqbal told The Current.
Entrepreneur and politician Zulfi Bukhari came on board as a replacement for the future series.
