Actor Ushna Shah recently took to Twitter and gave a befitting reply to trolls, who mocked her English accent and called it fake.

On Sunday, she has acquired the accent after spending some “formative years” in Canada, where she received her formal education.

“Having spent my formative years i.e all of grade school, most of high school and then uni in Canada, and then consciously downplaying my accent while in Pakistan,” wrote Shah.

Meanwhile, on the professional front, Ushna is all set to feature in the upcoming Pak-Turk joint drama series on Salahuddin Ayubi. The show will be based on the life of the great Muslim leader – better known in the West as Saladin.
