Danish Taimoor promoting alcohol in the drama series Nashtar is getting severe public backlash. One wrote, ” What’s with showing alcohol again and again in the dramas. Be the saviour of your culture, don’t be the followers of the devil.” Another viewer said, “Why was there a need to show alcohol, the same scene could have been shown without the alcohol. Shame on the makers.” A third one said, “Drinking is haram in Islam, it went keep on telecasting such scenes, it will wrongly educate the youth regarding alcohol consumption” A netizen remarked, “I like Danish Taimoor but alcohol?” Read the comments:
