  • ‘For many even, Edhi isn’t a hero’, says Anoushey Ashraf

    ‘For many even, Edhi isn’t a hero’, says Anoushey Ashraf

    VJ turned actor, Anoushey Ashraf, who often shares her thoughts and opinions on different topics, recently commented that for “many even Abdul Sattar Edhi isn’t a hero”.

    Commenting under a post, which criticised Malala for being included among the likes of Edhi, Begum Raana Liaquat Ali Khan and Major Aziz Bhatti, Anoushey wrote: “For many even, Abdul Sattar Edhi isn’t a hero. Same with Malala. She may not be your hero but she’s certainly someone youngsters from around the world look up to.”

    Social media users did not agree with Ashraf’s comments and criticised her for them. In response, Anoushey remarked: “You guys just read what you want to read.”

    “I wasn’t comparing them [Malala & Edhi]. Just the circumstances under which everyone is questioning her presence,” she explained.

    Often referred to as the ‘richest, poor man’, Edhi Sahab is hailed as a real-life hero for dedicating his life towards serving poor and needy people.

    On the other hand, Malala, who was shot in 2012 by the Taliban for demanding girls’ rights to education, is the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner. She actively campaigns for girl’s education through her organisation.
