Actor Syeda Tuba Anwar recently spoke out against violence against women and has admitted that she has been the target of rape and murder threats.
In a podcast teaser, Tuba discussed her ordeal and the threats she received from zealots. The late televangelist and politician Aamir Liaquat’s ex-wife recalled feeling vulnerable in the face of such campaigns.
She mentioned having to cope with nasty online and offline trolling, labeling her as naive to handle the humiliating trends. According to Tuba, she never considered how the general public would respond before starting the connection.
In response to scandalous efforts, she stated that it was acceptable to utilize another person as a stepping stone to stardom. In order to shed light on her divorce, Tuba stated she had to go through a lot. She also noted that divorce is still stigmatized in society, and she had no idea she would have to go through such anguish.
Social media users criticized Tuba for being a “house wrecker” of the well-known politician who passed away last year after she was linked to one of them.
Last year she discussed the problematic culture of victim blaming in an interview with BBC Urdu. The former wife of late televangelist Aamir Liaquat Hussain, has been quite vocal about how violence against women often ends up in harsh victim blaming instead of a strong judicial support system in the country.
The starlet started campaigning for awareness regarding Noor Mukadam’s case especially because she could “relate” to the experience.
While opening up about supporting the late Noor Mukadam , the Bichoo star said, “Noor Mukadam’s incident was one such incident which came at the point when I was going through a lot in my life, I could connect to Noor on another level, I had never met Noor but I felt very deeply for her, because there were a lot of things which I faced, probably, I can’t tell all things, I don’t know why people victim blame in our society.”
Syeda added, “I believe I should raise my voice to educate people and I will keep on doing that”.
“There’s a norm of victim blaming in our society. I don’t understand why it happens, to be honest, maybe it’s a lack of education or perhaps awareness, but I feel like it is my responsibility as a public figure to aware people of what’s happening around them. If around such sensitive topics, even if one person learns or unlearns their toxic behaviours from me, then I feel like my purpose is complete,” she added about the need to make people aware of how blaming the victim only makes the problem worse.
Tuba also addressed cyber trolling on social media. She is often trending on social media for various reasons, mostly connected to her ex-husband and her negative roles on television. Speaking about how she deals with the heavy doses of negative trolling from social media, she said, “When this all started, I’d get very emotional and I couldn’t process why people were doing that to me. It still happens sometimes but you know, I often think about how all of us in our lives dislike people around us but for people to actually open their social media and type out curses for me, I can only imagine how much negativity they store within them. I think all of us should think 100 times before writing anything about how our words can impact someone.”
She further emphasised that it’s not just her who faces negative trolling, no other celebrity is spared. “It’s not just me. I’ll open any celebrity’s page, and there will be at least one comment that spews hate for them and has a curse word in it. Some people just have it worse.”
Tuba’s comment garnered backlash from fellow actor Mathira.
Mathira grilled the newbie and said that Aamir helped her in creating a name in the entertainment industry and hence Tuba should be thankful to him rather than “seeking attention.” She said the Bisaat actress should learn to respect and forgive the deceased.
In response to the Blind Love diva’s remarks, Anwar clapped back at Mathira on Instagram for making false assumptions. Anwar said that Mathira should check the complete interview and she should think before meddling in others’ personal lives. Tuba also revealed that she called Mathira to clarify things but the host didn’t take up her call.
Actor Ahmad Ali Butt took to his Instagram stories to take a jibe at PM Shehbaz Sharif for load shedding across country.
It is being reported that cue to higher demand and reduced generation due to fuel shortages, reduced gas supplies to power plants, Pakistan is experiencing 6-10 hours of electricity load-shedding.
Prime Minister (PM) Shahbaz Sharif and former Minister of Energy Hammad Azhar exchanged accusing remarks on Twitter.
“Mian Nawaz Sharif’s government halted the worst load-shedding in five years,” the Prime Minister declared in a tweet. The PTI administration failed to procure fuel on schedule or fix power plants. As a result, present load shedding is in effect. Power generation costs the population Rs100 billion per month due to inefficient plants. “We’re working on it”.
The Punjab Nahi Jaungi star told PM that the problem of load-shedding that he has claimed to be working on, wasn’t during Imran Khan’s tenure.
In February 2021, PTI MNA and host Aamir Liaquat Hussain posted a video on his official Instagram handle in which he hit out at trolls for comments on his viral videos with his third wife, Syeda Dania.
He tagged actor Ahmad in the caption.

Butt earlier shared his stance on Aamir for letting his personal videos with wife circulate on social media.
A video of the couple made the rounds on the internet platforms and the Jawani Phir Nahi Aani star reacted to the clip.
Taking to his Instagram story, the Parey Hut Love actor wrote, “When you post something from the privacy of your bedroom, just remember you invited the whole world in. So don’t complain after, if they don’t leave.”
On the work front, Ahmed will be seen next in Punjabi Hatte Dinde Chakk opposite Neeru Bajwa and Gippy Grewal.
Politician and famous TV personality Aamir Liaquat Hussain’s former wife Syeda Tuba Anwar on Wednesday announced khula (divorce) on her social media handle.
Anwar took to Instagram account and announced: “After a separation of 14 months, it was evident that there was no hope of reconciliation and I had to opt to take Khullah from Court.”
“I cannot express how difficult it has been but I trust Allah and His plans,” she wrote, appealing that she would like her decision to be respected.
Aamir recently made a revelation while interacting with press at a recent event. On being asked about why is he attending the event solo, the Aalim Online star stated that now he is left alone since his wife Tuba has “gone with Shahroz”.
Surprised by his revelation, the media person replied that they are shooting a drama together only to which Aamir responded by saying that “No, I am telling you, its true.”
Tuba is set to be seen opposite Shahroz Sabzwari in a forthcoming drama. Earlier she stated in an interview that, earlier that they “instantly connected”. “He’s a great support and costar,” said the actor who married PTI MNA Aamir Liaquat in 2018. “He makes sure that I am comfortable and supports me. The director is loving our on screen chemistry.”
She is playing a character named Nimra who is from a rich family and goes to great lengths for the sake of love. She has a dynamic and powerful personality, she explained.
The director is Jasim Abbas and writer is Munim Majeed and the play was shot in Islamabad. “So it will be altogether a different and refreshing screen.

“Working with a new team in a different city had me nervous but the team and the working environment has been very kind and warm towards me. The energy and vibe on the set is so good that you enjoy your work more,” she explained.

In a recentpodcast with Entertainment Pakistan, Fiza claims that she had called Aamir and Tuba, his second wife, on her program and when they walked on the stage, she asked Tuba to stand next to her husband. Aamir then joked that Fiza could have been the one who was called on stage with him but now it was too late.

The first time he proposed to her was after she got divorced. He asked her to marry him in front of his first wife, Bushra and proposed in a “very nice manner…he wanted to get married to me in front of the world,” Fiza claims. Fiza was depressed during that time and ignored the proposal and then found out that he got married to Tuba.

When he asked her again in front of Tuba, he also “joked about it again and said it’s not too late to get married…Tuba has no problem with it”.
