industry to complain about 'sexual harassment'.
In an interview with

Pakistani showbiz industry is based on dramas and it is because of great dramas
that the domestic industry has made a name for itself in the outside world. But
now dramas like the past are not made.
Maharbano said that
actresses are criticized on social media so much that their personal, marital
and family life are ruined. Sometimes criticism leads people to commit suicide.
The actress said
that if a woman's dupatta is moved from one side to the other or the dress is
slightly removed, there is a commotion. Such women are criticized, along with
family and friends, for causing such women to feel depressed, to become
depressed, and then to commit suicide.

He admitted that it
took her a while to understand the harassment itself and that she was harassed
for being part of the media industry at an early age.
The actress said
that usually men in high positions in showbiz industry harass girls and
actresses. Sometimes women suffer harassment because of their job and career
and the fact that they have to keep quiet because of the job.

harassment, she revealed that a man who set up a mic during shooting a few
years ago tried to physically harass her but she could not understand his
movement and Saba Qamar rescued him.
The actress said
that the person who set up the mic was harassing her in a way but since she was
young, she could not understand the matter. So Saba Qamar came to her aid and
got the man out of the shooting team.
