Over the weekend, we saw stars of the Pakistani entertainment industry take the red carpet at the 20th Lux Style Awards. Pakistan stars such as Mahira Khan, Sheheryar Munawar, Mehwish Hayat, Mansha Pasha, Hareem Farooq, Ali Rehman Khan, Asim Azhar, Aima Baig among others put their best foot forward for the 20th edition of the coveted awards.
The stars, dressed to impress, walked down the red carpet with stunning outfits.
However, like every year, social media was abuzz with rib-tickling memes and some not-so-pleasant comments about who wore what. Mansha has now spoken about how women in the industry are always shamed for their attires.

“Every award show ends with a slew of sermonising comments under the photos of all female celebrities making character judgments about how good or bad she is based on her outfit,” the actor star tweeted. “Honestly, this is the real superficiality. Judging a person’s inner nature based on an outfit choice.”
She went on to make a point, “If you think verbal abuse (well-intended or justified in your minds perhaps) makes you a good person, please check again.”
It is about time, the female artists respond to such scrutiny in a befitting manner.
