Pakistani actress Zhalay Sarhadi has clarified her stance on the matter of hiring Turkish actress Esra Bilgic, who played Halima Sultan in Ertugrul Ghazi, as ambassador of Pakistan brands.
In a statement, the actress stated she had said that it’s a slap on the faces of those who don’t promote our content and actors.
“The reason why I always talk about the economy is that if our jobs would be given to our own people it would be beneficial for Pakistan,” she added.
The actress asked, “Do you think giving our tax money to foreign actors in double currently is right thing?”
There is no clarification necessary as I never said anything against Esra or Turkish actors in my original interview. Since everyone wants to demean their own actors for some sad reason I was made a pawn: @Xxhalay https://t.co/qpYYjvWehr pic.twitter.com/FqJ0cPdzRc
