Actor Aiman Khan received flak on social media after she called Mawra Hocane ‘skinny’ and suggested she put on some weight.
Aiman and husband Muneeb Butt appeared on The Couple Show hosted by real-life couple Hina Altaf and Aagha Ali. Aiman was asked what she likes about Mawra and what she doesn’t. “I really like the photos she posts on Fridays,” she said. “My suggestion to her is that she should gain some weight as she’s too skinny.”
Many people on social media, however, accused Aiman of body shaming Mawra and called her comments ‘insensitive’.
The Mann Mayal actor responded by asking people to stop this “non-sense”. She remarked that people were unnecessarily “taking things personally and spreading negativity”.
Mawra also came out in support of Aiman and asked her fans to refrain from vilifying someone. She remarked that people sometimes “don’t mean what they say” and they should be given space.
“Let’s be kind and give each other space for improvement,” Mawra added.
