Pakistani actor and model Mariyam Nafees recently opened up about an incident in which a man kept asking her inappropriate questions.
Sharing screenshots of the messages he sent, Nafees took to social media and wrote, “Actress hu, prostitute nahi. (I’m an actress, not a prostitute).”
“I’m sick of these proposals and I’ve tried whatever I could to make them stop but this is what I’m going to do now. It affects my mental health, it disturbs me that some people think this is what my business is. NO! I’M NOT FOR SALE!,” wrote Mariyam on her Instagram.
Senior actor Hina Bayat stepped forward in support of Mariyam, commenting, “Never let it bring you down…because the fault is with them, not you.”
Earlier Humaima Malick had shared a similar incident in which she was harassed at a local hotel.
“I can’t even keep count of times business cards of men that I do not know have been slipped under the door of my room at various well known and supposedly safe hotels. Just because a woman is from entertainment business does not, DOES NOT means that she wants business cards slipped under her door,” the actor had written in a note shared on social media.
