Transgender model Rimal Ali has joined the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to contribute to the welfare sector.
The model was allegedly kidnapped and tortured just a couple of days ago and the incident has motivated her to make a difference in society by joining politics.
Ali has also been appointed as coordinator for gender discrimination of the Insaf Welfare Wing.
The celebrity rose to international fame as Pakistan’s first transgendered model. After the horrific incident she had gone through, she hopes to strengthen her community by joining politics.
Visuals of the torture incident have been doing the rounds on the internet and netizens have supported Ali while raising their voices for the transgender community.
Ali will continue to work in the showbiz industry along with politics.
“I will continue my showbiz career and nowadays I am engaged in various projects. In the coming days, my fans will see me in the drama industry and more films,” Ali told The Express Tribune.
“I was appreciated by the public when I started my career and luckily have gotten opportunities to work with legendary actors like Mahira Khan. Showbiz is my passion and I will not leave it. In these uncertain days, the situation in the industry is a bit disturbed due to COVID-19. But like many others, I am also struggling through this difficult time.”
Earlier, Ali made her film debut in Saat Din Mohabbat In and Rahbra. Soon after, many from the community started their film careers.
