Who would have thought that a Halloween costume as common as Catwoman would get somebody in trouble?

But such is the hard luck that recently befell our beloved actress Mahira Khan.

At Nabila's Halloween party, the svelte leading lady went as Catwoman, and posed for a picture with Asim Raza, the director of her upcoming film Ho Mann Jahaan.

Now, Asim was geared up in Shiv Sena's signature saffron and even sported a placard that said 'Mahira ko bahir nikalo!'

While Asim's costume was just a timely, tongue-in-cheek jibe at Shiv Sena, whose recent threats against Mahira and Fawad Khan have caused much furore, many people across the border construed Mahira's joint picture with Asim as a political statement.

The actress thus decided to clear the air with a series of tweets:

Mahira Khan's debut Bollywood film Raees, in which she stars opposite Shah Rukh Khan, will be out in 2016.

Mahira do not have any idea of what Shiv sena is and how much strong they are politically in Maharashtra. When she is not a politician, it would be better for her to focus on her work and do not get in to political statements. Though there may be political statements during election times, normally shiv sena do not businesses. If shivsena really opposes, no pakistani can even enter India. Hence it is better for Mahira to stay away from politics and simply focus on her work when she is in India.

There is absolutely nothing to apologize for Mahira. Even if it was intentional, it was bulls-eye.
