Actress Hira Khan strongly condemned senior showbiz personality Saba Faisal for her somewhat controversial remarks, which seemed to overstate the significance of having sons and thereby discriminate against daughters.
Saba Faisal recently made an appearance on a popular morning show hosted by Nida Yasir, where she expressed her views on the importance of having a son compared to a daughter in a family. She also discussed her sister’s behavior towards her son, which she found irksome and sometimes led her to prioritize maintaining complete silence.
Saba in the interview shared: “My younger sister after being aggrieved from the various issues associated with sons, used to say Thank God! I don’t have sons so we just used to prioritize silence upon it. But now her husband has passed away and her daughters live abroad separately. Lately, she gave me a phone call which made my whole day very disturbed as she was in great tension after finding her car out of work suddenly. I suggested her to sale it as it was causing mental harm. So, the point here is that when you have a son they accompany you anytime, or even if they are not sometimes, the idea of having a son makes you feel great So, I just want to say to those who have only daughters express gratitude but never feel blessed for not having sons.”
Saba Faisal’s aforementioned arguments have enraged the junior actress Hira Khan quite a lot as she expressed harsh words for Saba in her latest Instagram post.
Hira stated regarding Saba Faisal with uploading her interview on her social media story: “Stunned by the audacity and stupidity”.
Saba Faisal responded to Hira Khan with great patience, writing: “Hira ye Bat Karny K Liye Abhi Zindagi Ka experience Laina Bohat Zaruri Hai.”
Senior star Saba Faisal’s daughter Sadia Faisal also criticized Hira Khan for her bold words, she stated in her Instagram upload: “Everyone has a right to speak whatever he/she wants! And I’m stunned by your words! Have some respect for senior artists of your own industry”.
Hira replied to Sadia with a brief explanation: “In a country where newborns are killed just because they are not boys, where women are already considered a burden, its not okay for someone as big as Saba Ji to come and say things like these. I absolutely respect her craft but this is not okay.”
Sadia again answered to Hira’s response
: “You are taking it out of context what she meant had nothing to do with whatever you said peace please.”
