    Mahira instantly clapped back with a savage response.

    Following this, industry veterans including Humayun Saeed, Shaan and Humaima Malick jumped in to defend Mahira.

    Humayun Saeed, who also included Mehwish Hayat in the coversation, asserted that a nation can’t progress “until we learn to respect our women and treat them with dignity.”

    Mehwish Hayat thanked Humayun for standing up for them.

    Shaan remarked that Mahira has earned her respect through nothing else but sheer hard work.

    Meanwhile, Humaima Malick gave the troll a hard-hitting response.

  • Hamza Ali Abbasi takes his words back about not accusing judges of being anti-Army

    Hamza Ali Abbasi takes his words back about not accusing judges of being anti-Army

    Ever since a special court on Tuesday awarded death penalty to former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf for high treason, there is pretty much nothing else anyone can talk about.

    Hamza Ali Abbasi, who is one of Pakistan’s most vocal actors, has been tweeting furiously on the matter. Earlier in the day Hamza had requested people who support Musharraf to express their views without accusing judges of being anti-Army or pro-Nawaz Sharif.

    However, after the special court issued its detailed verdict, an excerpt of it went viral on social media, Hamza remarked that he takes his “words back about not accusing judges of being anti-Army or anti-Pakistan.”

    “We direct the Law Enforcement Agencies to strive their level best to apprehend the fugitive/convict [Musharraf] and to ensure that the punishment is inflicted as per law and if found dead, his corpse be dragged to the D-Chowk, Islamabad and hanged for three days,” read the excerpt.

    Earlier, he had tweeted that PML-N and others need to apologise for their allegations on the judiciary, during the cases against the Sharifs.

    He also added that the courts should apply the same procedure to Ishaq Dar others who are not present in the country.
