If not a writer, Khalilur Rehman Qamar would be a punching bag: Behroze Sabzwari

In a rapid-fire round, Hashmi asked Sabzwari what Qamar would be if not a writer by profession. “Voh logo se pit rahe hote (He’d be getting beaten by people),” quipped the veteran actor. Sheikh, who was sitting next to him, also laughed out loud along with the host.

The comment section saw people defending Qamar against Sabzwari’s remarks. Referring to how actor Mahira Khan said she’s lost work ever since she called the Mere Paas Tum Ho author for his blatant misogyny, a user wrote that Sabzwari will now not be getting any roles in Qamar’s projects.

After Qamar cursed Marvi Sirmed on national television while talking about Aurat March’s slogans, Khan was the first to speak out against him. “I am shocked at what I have just heard and seen!” wrote the actor. “Sick to the core. This same man who abused a woman on TV is revered and given project after project because of what? We are as much to blame if not more for perpetuating this thinking!”
