Item songs objectify women and degrades them. Its against our culture, norms and religion. This is not the first time Hamza Ali Abbasi has spoken against item song culture. He believes these songs do not determine the success of a film.
“Its heart breaking and disappointing to see some brilliant Pakistani film makers still using item numbers to sell their films, he wrote this earlier on Twitter.

Say no to item numbers and do films that positively impact society… that's what @iamhamzaabbasi tells @iharoonrashid. Plus why his film #ParwaazHaiJunoon isn't propoganda and how it's going to change the international perception of Pakistan. pic.twitter.com/KdbDMZS8b6
