The Pakistani drama industry has been the talk of the town lately because of the accusations against Feroze Khan regarding the physical and emotional abuse of his wife, Aliza Sultan.
Iqra Aziz, one of the most popular and award-winning actresses in the Pakistani industry did not remain silent on the matter of domestic violence. In her support of people suffering from domestic violence, she opts out of her project with Feroze Khan.
She took to her Instagram to share this news with her fans with hashtags, #saynotoviolence #supportwomen. She said, “To stay silent in the face of injustice is to side with the oppressor.’ In lieu of the situation regarding domestic violence, I have made the difficult but necessary decision to retract my project with Feroze Khan as a sign of support for victims of domestic abuse. I support Aliza Sultan for seeking justice, more strength and power to you.”
Actress Iqra Aziz and Feroze Khan became a popular on-screen couple when they worked together in the hit drama serial ‘Khuda Aur Muhabbat’. They were coming back on screen together for a Geo project but Iqra opted out of it.
Yasir Hussain also showed his support for Aliza Sultan saying that he is against domestic abuse and posted on Instagram saying, “Alhamdulillah, I love my wife and children very much. If I raise a hand on my wife, there is a 90 per cent chance of my son doing the same tomorrow. While it is normal for spouses to fight, it is not normal for them to beat each other like animals.”
Yasir further added, “I support Aliza and her family. May Allah take away these burdens and bring peace into their lives soon. Amen.”
