Mahira Khan received a lot of flak when she was caught smoking with actor Ranbir Kapoor in New York.
The Pakistani beauty was trolled and slammed on social media pages.
Reacting to this, Ranbir Kapoor in a statement to a leading daily had said, “I’ve gotten to know Mahira in a personal capacity over the last few months. She is somebody who I admire and respect, for her achievements and even more for the person she is. It is very unfair the way she is being judged and spoken about. What is also said is the inequality in judgment just because she is a woman. I request you to stop the negativity and move on with your beautiful god gifted lives. Peace and Love.”
Recently, Mahira was again caught while she was smoking at an event.
She was at the backstage of the award and was seen bumming a smoke before walking the red carpet it seems. The video went instantly viral on the Internet and the actor was again slammed on social media pages.
Check out the video below and tell us about it in the comments section.
And once again, her Pakistani fans aren’t impressed.
The 33-year-old actress got mercilessly trolled after her video went viral.
It was only recently that Mahira opened up on pictures of her smoking with Ranbir that went viral last year. She said that she felt “violated”.
“That was the first time in my entire career that I was caught up in a so-called controversy and it was strange because there were so many things in that. One, obviously you feel violated, you are in a personal down time moment and someone has just photographed you,” she said on a TV show.
“Two, obviously there was an uproar, because here I was, someone who is extremely loved in Pakistan, and they sort of keep me up on this pedestal you know, they treat me with a lot of love and a lot of respect. And there are certain things I didn’t realise that they don’t want to see me do,” she added.
