Actor Ushna Shah took to her Twitter handle to condemn the treatment of religious minorities in Pakistan amidst Daya Bhel’s tragic murder news.
The Habs star wrote, “I have some close Hindu Pakistani friends. Wonderful, kind people, some are even like family to me. They happen to be from privileged homes. I shudder to think that their lives would have been bad if they had not been, like the majority of minorities, who have no voice #dayabhel.”
Shah also raised awareness on the matter in a follow-up tweet.
Earlier this year during the holy month of Ramadan, she shared an instance where she was helped by a Christian and a Hindu as she went on to offer her Asr prayers in Ramadan.
“A Christian and a Hindu helped me pray Asr just now and set an example of tolerance,” Shah tweeted.
“At Nabila salon, the makeup artist for today (who is Hindu) held up the faucet so I could perform Wudu easily and another makeup artist (who did my makeup last night), who is Christian, spread out the Janemaz for me.”
Last year the Balaa diva expressed her solidarity with the minorities in the country on the 75th Independence Day.
Taking to Instagram, the Punjab Nahi Jaungi actor said “I’ll celebrate Independence Day when the minorities in Pakistan are given the economic, physical and religious securities as well as the civic liberties promised to them. The very promise which laid the foundation of this country.”
