Mahira Khan responds to backlash over Halloween picture
Mahira Khan has responded to the many that have criticised the actress for a picture she posted for Halloween in a Catwoman’s outfit.
The picture, which also had Pakistani director Asim Raza dressed up as a Shiv Sainik, went viral online.
Taking to Twitter, Khan explained why the two dressed as they did.
The image from a Halloween event I attended has been made out to be something it never was.

It was not done intentionally to hurt anybody's sentiments, neither to make a political statement.

As many have said before me, artists are creative people who can't be dragged into the politics of nations.

I have always made a concerted effort to maintain this standard for myself. Love and peace to all.
