Mahira Khan defends Mehwish Hayat after she's criticised for winning the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz

[Baby Leone]

On this March 23, Punjab Nahi Jaungi star Mehwish Hayat will be one of 127 people who will be bestowed a civil award by President Arif Alvi in honour of their work for Pakistan's betterment.

She's being honoured with the greats and the reasons for that are evident; Hayat, who has been working in the fraternity for over a decade, has consistently appeared in some of the highest grossing movies in Pakistan (Load Wedding, Na Maloom Afraad, Actor in Law and so many more dramas as well). Clearly, that's not enough for some people.

The actress called out Siasat.pk in a recent tweet, that had published an article questioning whether Hayat won the award on merit or due to some political affiliations with PTI:

In a heartwarming show of support, many celebs from the industry such as Mahira Khan, Osman Khalid Butt and Fahad Mustafa defended Hayat on social media:

Congratulations, Mehwish - your work speaks for itself. That someone would defame your character for the sake of retweets and gossip is absolutely disgusting.

The discussion forum in turn tried to scapegoat another publication, saying they had lifted the story from there:

Mehwish will receive a Tamgha-i-Imtiaz, which is the fourth-highest decoration given to any civilian in Pakistan. Other entertainment figures being honored on March 23 include actor Babra Sharif and singers Attaullah Essakhelvi and Sajjad Ali, who are both being bestowed the Sitara-i-Imtiaz. Reema Khan is getting a Pride of Performance award.

Why this is on Defense forum?

 

[AUz]

One skank defending another skank.

And why is this on defence.pk again?

Just saw a video where “Zindagi Gulzar hai” heroine was drunk af and “living it up” (as her fellow drunk actress put it) in a private beach resort in Karachi

Now image the character of Mahira and Mahwish Most of these young actresses are personal rakhails of influential people...

Well known fact in subcontinent underworld

And burger bachay like @Zibago keep making fairytale castles in their mind about their favorite “heroine”

There is no scapegoating.....the article is there https://www.express.pk/story/1589172/24/

cz we have different sections here for it.

congrats to Mehwish Hayat good to see govt honor those who are real representation of Pakistan.

 

[litman]

i think the govt may be following orders from west. destroying the family culture is very important for destruction of any society. the recent aurat march the likes of which we have never seen before in pak and the govt silence over it and now giving tamgha i imtiaz to a elite class pro*titute who is known for her vulgarity are signs which support the theory that pak may have been taking dictation from the western powers. i am sure there are hundreds of ladies in pak who are more deserving of the medal then this prosti*tute.

Well, i am of the opinion that we should only give National awards when a person reach the status of legend in his field. should not turn them into some worthless thing which Zardari and Nawaz regime did.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Giving tharkis erections by doin vulgarity.

Keeping their faces shut over Kashmir and indo Pak conflict etc.

Whichever chutiya gave her the award should have looked around and actually found a woman who contributed towards the society.. doctors,professors,social scientists and workers etc.
Not some horse faced “billi”.

P.S; mahira should stuff her mouth.. shameless creature.

 

[darksider]

She should go after express news not siasat.pk.
Siasat.pk just copy paste it from express news.
