Actor Imran Abbas took to his Instagram stories to issue a clarification about his recent post expressing disappointment in the way film releases were taking place during the sacred 9th and 10th Muharram.
The actor clarified that he wasn’t targeting any film or actor specifically, but was upset overall on how the chosen dates aligned with a sacred month for Muslims all over the world.
“I want to reiterate that I do not oppose any of the cast or producers of the movie, nor do i have any objections to the film being released. My main issue is with the chosen date, which is insensitive as it may upset the emotions of many Muslims living in this country, regardless of our sects, as all hold deep respect and love for our Propher (sallalaho Alehe Wa Alehi Wassalam) and Imam Hussain (A.S).
Yesterday, Imran Abbas took to his Facebook account to express his dissapointment at how previously during the time of PTV, there were music free transmissions. But now people’s priorities have changed during the month of Muharram.
“I can still recall when PTV used to have music-free transmissions. Now we witness dance and music shows even on the 9th of Muharram. People take these two days as holiday/break to travel to hill stations with family and friends for picnics.”
