Pakistan’s leading actress, Mahira Khan, has responded to the criticism surrounding a viral clip from her upcoming film ‘Neelofar,’ humorously acknowledging the immense public attention her work garners. The new film, which pairs her once again with Fawad Khan, has generated considerable excitement, especially because Mahira Khan is playing the challenging role of a visually impaired girl.
Recently, an intense emotional scene from the movie went viral across social media platforms, showing the character ‘Neelofar’ weeping and hitting herself. A number of users on social media criticized Mahira Khan’s performance in this particular scene, labeling the acting style as over-the-top or unrealistic.
In response to the criticism, Mahira Khan offered a direct and characteristically simple remark, stating: “Whatever I do goes viral.” Mahira Khan used the opportunity to draw attention to the sheer volume of viewership and engagement her work generates, whether the reaction is positive or negative. The actress’s statement reflects her prioritization of the artistic effort over viral criticism, implicitly encouraging fans to judge her character within the full context of the film.
