Mishi Khan and Yasir Hussain are popular Pakistani actors and active social media personalities who have recently raised their voice against restaurant’s discriminatory behaviour towards a man wearing Shalwar Qameez.
A news report is circulating about the demeaning attitude of a private restaurant in Karachi towards a man wearing Shalwar Qameez. According to details, Advocate Abdul Latif, who was dressed in Shalwar Qameez, went to the restaurant when the manager refused his entry, saying, “We don’t serve pendus.” They further asked him to leave, otherwise they would forcibly remove him. The customer, who is an advocate, has also sent a legal notice to the restaurant. Here is the link to the video:

Mishi Khan has posted a video on her official Instagram account in which she has combedmed the attitude of the so called restaurant’s manager who stopped a man from entering the restaurant in Shalwar Qameez.
Mishi said, “I am shocked. Can you believe they called our national dress cheap? We’re running on foreign funding, paying double the debt, we lack jobs and resources — and just look at their attitude, as if they’re from Switzerland! What are we supposed to wear now? Should we wear bikinis or hot pants just to be allowed in? I will definitely find out which restaurant this is, and I will reveal its name to you.” Here is what Mishi Khan said:
Yasir Hussain also said, “There has been a clear discrimination towards our national dress Shalwar Qameez which is banned in many clubs and fine done restaurants in Pakistan. He further added that these ‘Wanna be Angraiz’ are treating Shalwar Qameez same as Urdu language. Shalwar Qameez ke sath Kafi badtameezi ho rhi he. Bohot SE clubs air fine dine resturants Shalwar Qameez mein ander dakhil hune nhi dete. Ye wanna be anraiz iska Bhi Urdu wala haal karain ge. ” Here is his post:
Social media users are of the view that the restaurant’s name should be revealed and it should be boycotted by everyone. A fan wrote, “The restaurant is located on Do Darya, they did the same to us”. Many said that such a restaurant should be closed. A fan wrote, “Let’s find out the name of the restaurant and we will show up there in Shalwar Qameez.” Mishi Khan’s fans praised her for raising her voice. Read the comments:
