From there, she began getting featured in ad campaigns for different brands before bagging a role in Meray Paas Tum Ho. However, Rehmat later revealed that she is “not proud to be part of something [ Meray Pass Tum Ho] that is so compromising and ill-informed.”

The grand finale of Meray Paas Tum Ho has finally aired putting to rest all speculations over who will die and what will finally happen of Mehwish. While the drama was a phenomenal success, it did stir up controversy with its problematic dialogues and comments by the writer Khalil ur Rehman Qamar in his various interviews. The writer was accused of being misogynist and anti-women.
A few days before the finale, upcoming actor, Rehmat Ajmal, who plays Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish’s (Ayeza Khan) friend Aisha in the drama, said that she is “not proud to be part of something that is so compromising and ill-informed”.
Taking to Instagram, she wrote the message on her public account, saying that she watched Qamar’s interview and “got to know about his problematic views on very many things WAY after the project was completed” and that “I absolutely do not endorse the concepts and viewpoints of Mr Khalil Ul Rehman”.
Following Rehmat’s decision to distance herself from the show, Musaddiq Malik, who is the Associate Director of the play, and also plays Monty in the drama lashed out at Rehmat for “pulling a publicity stunt”.
He explained that “no actors were ill-informed about the play” and everyone “knew everything that they are signing up for”. He added that he was hurt by Rehmat’s comments as “a friend and it has got nothing to do with anyone of you nor does anyone have the right to say bad stuff about her”.

She explains that her role in the drama is limited and she did not get a chance to see how the whole thing would come together. She was not aware of the entire story line or of Rehman’s ideology when she accepted the role. It is her “first ever telecom project and I am learning – I have learnt to be cautious and more conscious with my creative choices”. She also asks people to, “extend new, struggling artists some leeway as we are in the process of learning” and that they are trying to make their mark on merit.
