She said, โI think we need to focus inwards; we need to focus on our own industry. Iโm someone who doesnโt believe in the cancel culture or boycotts. Iโm speaking broadlyโI donโt think itโs the right approach. But given the current situation, weโre all emotional. Instead of advocating such strong stances which becomes one’s prerogative because of circumstances, we should focus on ourselves. Also, in the end, it’s your country which is your safe space. I believe we should invest in ourselves, in Pakistan.โ Here is the link to the video shared by a fan of Mahira Khan:
