The Hocane sisters – Mawra and Urwa – who have launched their own clothing brand UxM recently made an appearance on Nida Yasir’s morning show to promote it.
During the show, the sisters spoke on a variety of topics from their daily life, food and workout routine to relationships, and their clothing line.
When the host, Nida asked them the secret behind their lean physiques, Mawra remarked that they are very conscious about what they eat and try their best to avoid eating unhealthy and processed foods. Urwa chimed in that one should be very careful about what they put in their body adding, “Aaj kal kitne maslay hain, ke yar depression hogaya, mental ‘disease’ hogai, it’s all because of food. Aur koi reason hi nahi hai. (These days we hear that so many people saying that they are suffering from depression or they have mental ‘disease’; it’s all because of food. There’s no other reason).
She then went onto say that people of older generations had a longer life span and were fitter because the food they consumed was healthier. Both Mawra and Nida agreed with Urwa’s comments before moving onto the next topic.
The clip from the morning show went viral and sparked uproar on social media as everyone started calling out the sisters for not understanding depression.
Soon after Mawra took to social media to defend her and her sister’s comments.
