It wasn’t a one-time event. It went on for years. I couldn’t solve it. I locked it in a box and said, ‘Well, this is happening in my life and I have to fight it.’

Ayesha Omar added that I did not want to share it with anyone. I have endured it for 15 years and finally, 2 years ago I talked about it. A friend of mine in the industry also suffered a similar situation like mine. Then they asked me, “what do you think this actress is telling the truth, is there really sexual harassment in the industry?” This was the first time I talked about it, I was asked if it happened to you. I said yes, I didn’t want to talk about it then. I’m doing it today. I haven’t named the culprit yet, but I’ve started talking about it.

She also used the hashtag “Long live Pakistan”. Iffat Omar did not specify in her tweet who she was talking about, but her tweet went viral on social media.
It should be noted that two years ago in 2018, singer Meesha Shafi had accused singer and actor Ali Zafar of sexual harassment, which led to a long legal battle between the two. Ali Zafar later claimed that Meesha Shafi could not prove her allegations, the court dismissed her case and thus Ali Zafar won the case.
According to social media users, the actress has said this about Ali Zafar. A large number of social media users came out in favor of Ali Zafar and criticized actress Iffat Omar for making allegations without any evidence. They are saying that if she has any evidence, she should present it in court.
@AliZafarsays …innocent until proven guilty…its with the courts. We cannot be the judge…..and if @itsmeeshashafi says 'i had forgiven and forgotten'..then how can you remember it again…after #MeToo movement starts…no one can act normally for 6 months with that person

میں نے سنا ہے علی ظفر کیس جیت گیا ہے اگر وہ جیت گیا یے تو اسکو ملوث ہونے کا کیسے کہا جا سکتا ہے؟؟؟
کیا ایک عورت کے کہنے پر ہی گناہگار مان لیا جائے؟؟؟
کیا عورت جھوٹ نہیں بول سکتی؟؟؟— Ali Hasnain Warraich (@PK_AliWarraich) August 18, 2020
