In a move that’s leaving Pakistani citizens frustrated due to rising electricity rates, renowned singer Shazia Manzoor has revealed that her electricity bill has come out reasonable.
Not only the general public but also prominent figures from the showbiz industry are protesting against the exorbitant electricity bills.
Recently, veteran Rashid Mehmood received an electricity bill of Rs 45,000.
A funny video of Shazia Manzoor is going viral on social media, in which she is responding to a question regarding her electricity bill.
Shazia said, “I didn’t get a high bill. If you want, you can play my song for inspiration, light a lamp, turn off the lights, and there will be no other way.”

The new basic rate is set at Rs 48.84 per unit, which will rise to Rs 57.63 per unit after adding sales tax. With other adjustments and taxes, the highest electricity rate will exceed Rs 65 per unit. For consumers, this means a considerable jump in their monthly bills, with those using 401 to 500 units facing the highest cost at Rs 41.36 per unit.
