EXCLUSIVE: ‘I’m going to fight it out with this woman’, Sharmila Faruqi slams Nadia Khan for trolling her mother
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Sharmila Faruqi has slammed Nadia Khan for making a video with Sharmila’s mother, in which the morning show host can be seen mocking Sharmila’s mother while sarcastically praising her makeup.
Nadia Khan can be seen praising Sharmila’s mother, Anisa for her makeup, jewelry, and clothing. Nadia asks Anisa where she has learned to do her makeup to which Anisa replied, “Sharmila” referring to her daughter.
The Current reached out to Sharmila to ask her what happened and what legal action is she going to take against Nadia Khan.
Sharmila Faruqi, while talking exclusively with The Current expressed her anger saying, “I inboxed [Nadia] and said it is very shameless of you to do this.”
To which Nadia, as per Sharmila, replied, “There is nothing wrong in this. I have not asked anything wrong and I have not done anything wrong. Stop using harsh words with me.”
Sharmila continued by saying, “She is shameless and heartless and it’s very very unfortunate,” adding, “I have a lot of respect for people in showbiz, they work really hard.”
She then said that her mother is a very “simple woman.” She said that she lost her father and her mother lost her husband three months ago. My mother was at Saboor Aly’s wedding.”
“She [Anisa] is trying to survive without her husband,” she said adding, “You [Nadia] don’t have anything else to do so you want to get publicity and ratings by making such videos,” said Sharmila.
Sharmila further said, “Even if there was someone else in place of my mother, I would have taken action.” The PPP leader added that it is very unfortunate that we have stopped respecting our elders in society.”
Sharmila also shared details about what legal steps she is taking. “I’m taking this to the head of cyber crime. I’m going to write them officially today and I’m going to take it to every forum. This is not how things are done.”
“You can not use women or anyone else or even men to ridicule them, just for the sake of your own publicity, and free publicity,” she stated, “I as a woman, as a mother as a daughter will not tolerate this.”
“I’m going to fight it out with this woman.” She added that even if she has to file a petition in court, she will do it.
“This is not what we are, this is not what we are taught and this is not our upbringing,” she concluded.
We have out to Nadia Khan for her comment to which she said that she will post her reply soon.
