Sajal Aly’s Cryptic Tweet
It was actor Sajal Aly who at first put up a tweet on the misogyny many female stars often face in the industry. “It is very sad that our country is becoming morally debased and ugly,” the Mom star had shared. “Character assassination is the worst form of humanity and sin.”
It is very sad that our country is becoming morally debased and ugly; character assassination is the worst form of humanity and sin.

The Alif actress has threatened to sue YouTuber Adil Raja for defamation as he has mentioned ‘KK’ as the actress having an illicit relationship with former top generals.
“I stayed quiet initially because obviously a fake video isn’t going to take over my existence but ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Do you think random people can point fingers at me and I’ll sit quietly and take it?” Khan wrote on Twitter.

Nothing But Thinly Disguised Misogyny, Says Maheen Khan
Veteran fashion designer Maheen Khan shared her views on the controversy. “As we reflect on the villainisation of women, it’s important to continue holding the media accountable. This recent attack on actors is after all nothing but thinly disguised misogyny. Why don’t we simply respect and applaud their achievements.”
Adil Raja Responds
Adil has taken to Twitter and offered clarification on accusations he had leveled against the actors. “There are numerous names of models, actresses, and celebrities in Pakistan and abroad, with the initials that I have mentioned,” he tweeted.
@KubraMKhan, I haven't named or defamed you in any way and condemned speculations regarding anyone's name being mentioned wrt my vlog. However, you have explicitly named and defamed me based on speculations and heresy. Good thing you are coming to the UK… pic.twitter.com/uKbvOurcF7

Women even at the top of their game; independent, outspoken and fearless are considered easy prey by small men.
It is literally the last refuge of the desperate and is the most cowardly thing one can do.— Mansha Pasha (@manshapasha) January 2, 2023

Parochial men feel threatened by successful women. So their bruised egos resort to smear campaigns. If only some tongues didn’t wag as much.
