Lately, Sheheryar Munawar opened up about his controversy regarding Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Talking to Amna Isani about it, Sheheryar Munawar said that it was his candid moment which was breached by someone just because he was an actor. He further said, “as an actor you have to be on guard all the time which is so unfair, can’t I enjoy any of my moment within my private place”
He said, “it was a normal chit chat session where I was narrating him dialogue, I was talking to him and then Mahira urged to me to touch the feet of Guru Ji, and I said ‘why not?’, even Nawaz Ul Din Siddiqui stopped me”, 
He further said, “it was just a moment and we were having fun, I am Sindhi and it is in our culture, I touch the feet of my father, my senior Asim Raza, I touch feet of Nigah Ji too”.
He said that the person who spread it, had just cut a short clip, omitted all the scenario and tried to portray that particular moment in a negative manner, he further said that it is bad form of journalism to spread negativity in such hard times. Have a look at his point of view regarding it.
