Shooting down the allegations, the accused actresses have now come forward to bash the statement made in the video. Sajal Ali, the Pakistani actress who was seen alongside popular Indian star Sridevi in the Bollywood film Mom, came forward to say that “character assassination is the worst form of humanity and sin.”
Sajal Ali, Ms. Marvel actress Mehwish Hayat, and Kubra Khan speak up against “honey trap” statement
In the said YouTube video, retired Pakistani army officer Adil Raja claimed that some of the country’s actresses were being used to gain leverage and trap politicians.
While Raja did not name any specific actress in the video, he gave out their initials. This was enough for internet snoopers to quickly get to the conclusion that the actresses referred to in the video might be Sajal Ali, Mahira Khan, Kubra Khan, and Mehwish Hayat.
In a series of Instagram stories, multiple actresses have spoken out against the vague statement. On her Twitter handle, Sajal Ali wrote:
Furthermore, Ms. Marvel actress Mehwish Hayat, who played the role of Ayesha in the MCU show, said that the allegations are baseless. This is what the actress posted on her Instagram story:
She further added:
The Ms. Marvel actress also posted the same on her Twitter handle:
While actress Mahira Khan has avoided commenting on anything regarding the ongoing controversy, actress Kubra Khan responded to the allegations on her Instagram handle, saying:
She further went on to say,
In her story, she asked the army officer to come up with concrete proof of his allegations within “a total of 3 days,” adding that she would sue him for defamation after that.
Whether or not the allegations are baseless or have some gravity to them will only be revealed when Adil Raja comes forward with any proof, as actress Kubra Khan and Mehwish Hayat from Ms. Marvel mentioned.
