Sadaf Kanwal, model and wife of actor Shahroz Sabzwari, has enraged a number of people for reducing feminism to household chores and taking care of the husbands. Sadaf and husband Shehroze Sabzwari sat down on the show ‘Hamare Mehman’ over Eid, talking about everything from Shehroze’s second marriage to Sadaf Kanwal, his relationship with his daughter Nooreh, and Sadaf’s thoughts on feminism.
When asked about how she interprets feminism, Sadaf says, “Aurat is not bechari at all. A woman is very strong. I feel very strong and surely you [the host] must be strong as well.” She believes that the Aurat March is an entirely different debate.
“In our society, our culture is our husband,” Sadaf said. “I have to pick up his shoes, iron his clothes (which I seldom do, but I know where they are kept). I should know where Sherry’s [Shehroz] stuff is and what and when he has to eat.” For Sadaf, feminism is taking care of her husband and giving him respect as this is what she has seen and been taught growing up. She ascribed feminism to increasing “liberals” in society and said that because she is a woman, she should know more about her husband than he does.
Right after Sadaf’s comment the video clip went viral on social media and Sadaf became a top trend on twitter. Many of the netizens were in favor of Sadaf, but on the other hand some of them criticized her for being a hypocrite. Have a look!
Sadaf kanwal rocked❤️
All Desi liberals shocked 🥳

Can you imagine this woman is telling Pakistani women's about culture and morality and how they should behave to their husbands according to Islam. But I think she forgot islam while doing mujra.
And this is new ammi of all misogynist. #SadafKanwal pic.twitter.com/BcOqfkN96T— Malak Salehh (@salahyyyyyy) July 31, 2021
