Senior journalist asks PM to take action against Mehwish Hayat’s latest TV commercial

Senior journalist Ansar Abbasi has criticized Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) and the incumbent government over a TV commercial and demanded of Prime Minister Imran Khan to take action and ban such “vulgar dance” videos on national televisions. Referring to a commercial of a local manufacturing biscuit company (TV commercial), featuring Mehwish Hayat, Abbasi called the dance a ‘mujra’.

“Wasn’t Pakistan built in the name of Islam,” he even questioned in a Tweet. Reacting to this, TV host Shafaat Ali said that a lot of obscenity is really spreading, you should throw your TV in the trash and make a video and upload it. People like you will also be encouraged.

Do you think the dance is obscene and dancing should be banned on national televisions?
