Meesha Shafi doesn't need validation from 'enablers'

She slammed the Hum Style Awards for celebrating harassers and asked them to stop nominating her.

06 Jul, 2021

The Hum Style Awards was held this past weekend and signalled Ali Zafar's return to hosting after five years following a lengthy legal battle with Meesha Shafi over claims of harassment. The awards honoured celebrities across the country, including Shafi, but she wasn't too happy with them.

Taking to social media, the star voiced slammed the awards and management for actively enabling alleged harassers and giving them space.

"One sec ….. you celebrate/award/defend and support harassers, this is old news. So no surprises. But shouldn’t ‘style’ awards at least try to find someone with style to host their show?" she asked sarcastically.

She then announced she didn't need any validation from the channel, making it clear she wouldn't be acknowledging any recognition or any accept any awards from organisations that are complicit in harassment.

"And HUM Style Awards, please stop nominating me. I don’t need validation from enablers," she added.

The tweet came after a few distasteful jabs had been made on the show, including one where the Mere Brother Ki Dulhan actor had mentioned how difficult it was to get the hosting gig, and at another point, how he'd like to be talked about more, despite his 'popularity' (the legal battle).

Goodluck with your hiatus in Canada, refuge for the corrupt and runaways, apart from hard earning middle class who went there for a future

Hum TV should have avoided controversy, Pakistan has many talented hosts available . Not against Ali zafar nor say he is guilty .

Doesn’t need validation but had to comment the thoughts on the occasion, all of you celebrities just can’t stand without lime light

Why should HUM or any other channel be accused of enabling harassment when court of law has cleared Ali of all charges? As she has no proof of her allegations so why should word of Meesha hold more weight than that of Ali ?

Right, now HUM network / JS Group will take dictations from an absconder, who ran off to Canada instead of facing the courts.

Ali a celebrated host is seen as a ghost by someone. You’re a freeman to enjoy your good repute and respect which couldn’t get tarnished. Chand p thooka moun ko ata he.

But still it is an accussation which needs to be proved in the court of law ,till then Ali zafar is clear and entitled to be called and host or do any other assignments, one can not be punished on mear accusations.

She is amazing. But looks like Cher here

Shahid Jul 06, 2021 07:47pm

So wait. The woman who ran away from her own court case is now going to lecture us on enabling and validation. I think that Canadian air has messed this wench up real bad. She needs to fix her moral compass first.

Meesha Shafi is an absconder. Plain and simple.

ambreen Jul 07, 2021 04:16am

Meesha u r talented and but pls stop this nonsense. Angoor khattey hen ???

M. Saeed Jul 07, 2021 12:12pm

Loser's rant loud and clear.

SAEED AHMED Jul 08, 2021 04:38am

An honest piece of advice for Meesha is to get over it. If we make a mistake once, the right thing to do is to accept and correct for the future, instead of justifying and fighting against the truth, which will land you in more frustrations and self-imposed humiliations. You have a choice to take or leave it.

Why is she allowed to skip all court proceedings?
