Mahira became a hot topic for social media users to gibe into the issue. While the rest were concerned with the human rights violations taking place in Gaza, some users found her missing dupatta the main reason to discuss…oh man really? GROW UP!

Mahira Khan’s Missing Dupatta Gets ‘Louder’ than Pro-Palestine Protest: Poor Nation

Being judgmental is the long-lasting corona rampant in generations for a long, and now is triggered against the recent protest outside the Karachi Press Club where people gathered to voice for Palestinian rights. Regardless of the grave nature of the protest, Mahira Khan’s missing dupatta became the newsflash.

Bullies Should be Given a Shut-Up call

Some people felt that people disparaging Khan’s attires was a fitting way to disregard the ongoing crises the world is collectively facing — the violence against Palestinians and the coronavirus pandemic.

There is a saying, ” Small minds discuss people, ” Presently we can see the practical example of it. First, Alizeh shah now Mahira Khan, yes there Dupatta and Sleeves matters more than the thousands of lives being brutally murdered.#FreePalestine #GazaUnderAttack

If it’s her choice to wear a dupatta then it’s the choice of the people to criticize her. Remember an artist’s life is no more private but when he/she becomes a star will become a public figure. If Mahira Khan thinks she’s a public figure then she shouldn’t get upset on this.

The unjustified trolls demonstrate confined minds and poor brought up

The media, shouldn’t provide these haters a platform to spread their odium. Moreover, no one should pay them any heed if their voices weren’t amplified in the media. Only media coverage makes them prominent.

Yasir Hussain also called out the people bashing Khan. He and others like him have huge fan followings on social media and when they call something out, people listen and often learn. People ignore the efforts to police women’s clothes and thereby distract from actual issues, people are seeing them for what they are.

Stand up and raise your voice to curb the hate!
