Influencer Kanwal Ahmed has called out drama serial Hum Kahan Ke Sachay Thay for featuring characters endorsing child domestic labour. The hit play features superstar Mahira Khan, Kubra Khan and Usman Mukhtar as the lead trio.

Actor Zainab Qayoom responded her under the tweet and stated that initially it was a concern that was raised by her fellow colleagues and herself but the character is pivotal to the plot of the drama.

Netizens remained divided as some believed that it just depicts the reality which a drama is supposed to while others stated that a drama featuring such big stars shouldn’t endorse the concept of domestic child labour.

So far only four episodes have been released and the story is yet to unfold further which will provide more clarity on the matter.
