Chipkali (lizard) season is upon us. Every now and then we see a lizard scutter across the wall giving us mini heart attacks.

Over the weekend, two celebrities Sarwat Gillani and Armeena Khan shared experiences of their run-in with these animals, prompting Shaniera Akram to urge everyone not to hate on these ‘innocent lizards’.

Guys, Geckos 🦎 are innocent lizards. They watch over us, eat our dengue mosquitoes and make malaria their dinner. Don’t hate them, they are our friends. Trust me, I’m from Australia, when there is a creature you have to worry about I will tell you

I don’t get it, Pakistanis have lived through terrorism, wide spread disease, horrific natural disasters, political unrest, famine and poverty. Yet you see one little Gecko and completely lose your shit! https://t.co/ze67BT20wB

Following Shaniera’s tweet, a leading media outlet reported that Shaniera and Armeena were involved in a public spat, Armeena said that she loves Shaniera and admires her for her efforts.
