Share: LAHORE-Saba Qamar’s leaked pictures went viral on social media. They were BTS pictures of the actress from her latest photoshoot. She was wearing a slightly transparent white shirt while holding a cigarette. As always, people lost their temper on her leaked photos and took to twitter to display their hate. While the actress remained silent on this issue, her Baaghi co-star, Osman Khalid Butt addressed it very openly. He criticized the persons responsible for leaking her photos. “First: you do not mess with Saba Qamar. Period.Second: For the love of God, stop looking for every excuse to drag your icons down. Third: Stop sharing these images/videos and stop commenting on them. If you want to speak out, speak out against the jahalat of whoever did this just for social media infamy”, he tweeted. Humayun Saeed talking to The Nation expressed his views on this issue and said, “I have seen the photos. Those pictures have been taken while she was changing her clothes for the shoot. It looks like she’s shooting in a little transparent shirt, but she’s not. It is wrong to leak her pictures and then criticize them. Who so ever is responsible for this is a cheap person. And as far as the cigarette is concerned, it is bad for health. It is equally bad for every smoker. I would not judge Saba Qamar for holding a cigarette. The main issue is leaking her pictures without her consent”. This is not the first time that a female actress has been attacked over social media for holding a cigarette. Mahira Khan faced the same thing over her leaked pictures, while she was casually smoking with Ranbir Kapoor. In that event also, Osman Khalid Butt highlighted the double standards of the society by uploading a picture of him smoking. He wrote this caption “Behaya male actor cigarette-noshi kartayhuaypakraygaye - sharmnaakmanazir’. said NO ONE EVER.” It is not the first time that Osman Khalid Butt has shown his support for the females of the industry. He was also the first person from the Pakistani industry to tweet in favor of Meesha Shafi’s harassment case. Adnan Siddiqui in his tweet said “Came through what’s being called BTS images of my colleague and a friend #SabaQamar’s recently done photo shoot which is spreading on social media like wildfire, I’m deeply saddened by this act, this is not us and we shouldn’t take pride in it in any manner!”<doc-sep>Read Also Saba Qamar has also begin following Mahira Khan, Shamefull ....are we muslims https://t.co/JSZ3UVpgZA — young doctors of pakistan (@YDADOCTORS) 1532039422000 Saba Qamar, Mahira ko beat karne ke chakkar main nangi ho ke bhi phir le gi — شیخ صاحبہ (@BlahBleh_) 1532109631000 Saba Qamar has also begin following Mahira Khan, Is she even Muslim anymore ?? https://t.co/yq6DAKAbWu — M Hanzala Tayyab MHT (@OfficialHanzala) 1532024461000 Hi i want to shame the men who are slut shaming Saba Qamar.

Pakistani actor Saba Qamar was attacked by trolls after her personal photos were leaked online without her permission.These pictures were taken while Saba was taking a cigarette break in the middle of a photoshoot.Despite the unreasonable backlash, Saba chose to maintain a dignified silence, but Troll Slayer will not be as generous towards trolls.Here’s how Saba was targeted and why her trolls need to be taught a lesson:For the uninitiated, Mahira was slut-shamed after somebody leaked her private pictures where she was seen wearing backless dress and smoking in company of Indian actor Ranbir Kapoor . Yeah, you read it right. Both Mahira and Kapoor were smoking, yet it was the Pakistani actress’ smoking that irked misogynist haters.Firstly, smoking is injurious to every gender’s health and not to women alone. Secondly, like Mahira, Saba is an adult, who is aware of how her choices might affect her health and she should be allowed the freedom to exercise them without being judged.By the same logic, actor Salman Khan should have long ceased to be a Muslim. He takes off his shirt at the drop of a hat and by all accounts was a chain smoker for a long time. Yet nobody targets him for that. When a man smokes without a shirt on, that is seen as just fine, or even as ‘cool’. No outrage is seen there.Saba is an actress and should be judged on her acting skills rather than on some flawed moral and religious logic.Instead of slamming her, the outrage should be directed at the person who leaked Saba’s ‘Behind the Scenes’ photos without her consent. Just because Saba is a model, her body doesn’t become public property.Women having nipples is as normal as these sexually frustrated trolls having pea-sized brains.Saba was apparently clicked in the middle of the shoot when she was changing her clothes. These perverted creeps should know, there is no technology in the world yet that allows one to change clothes without taking them off.<doc-sep>Pakistani actress Saba Qamar is being trolled for her personal pictures that were leaked online on Tuesday. The pictures were reportedly taken while she was taking a smoke break during a photoshoot. In the pictures, Saba is seen getting ready while holding a cigarette in her hand and the trollers have been questioning her morality. This is not the first time, actresses are facing backlash after they were caught smoking. Earlier, actress Mahira Khan was slut-shamed over leaked pictures with Ranbir Kapoor in which the actress, wearing a backless dress was seen smoking. While trolls about Saba are going viral, some of Qamar's colleagues and friends have come to her aid. Pakistani actor Adnan Siddiqui, who has worked with Qamar in the critically acclaimed TV show Maat, said he was "saddened" by the images which have been "spreading on social media like wildfire". Osman Khalid Butt, Qamar's co-star from Baaghi, had a stinging message for those responsible for the leak. The actor said that the whole stunt an "all-too-familiar misogynistic, repulsive rhetoric" targeting one of most accomplished Pakistani actors.

The Hindi Medium actor is clearly in the moment as she gets ready for the shoot. It is evident that she is in the midst of a dress change, when the pictures were taken. Saba’s colleague also had to face online harassment after photos of her smoking with Indian actor Ranbir Kapoor, while in New York, found their way to the internet. Mahira had to issue a clarification eventually. Trolls brought in Mahira again as they attacked Saba. One person wrote, “Saba Qamar has also begun following Mahira Khan. Is she even Muslim anymore?” Saba is among Pakistan’s top actors. In the rather stylish ‘behind the scenes’ pictures, Saba is wearing a white shirt while her coat/blazer is being removed by an assistant. The hair looks wet and combed backwards. She is holding a cigarette in her right hand and wears an assured expression on her face. That is enough to get the trolls going with some accusing her of being another Mahira Khan in the making, wearing skimpy clothes and to being un-Islamic. The actor has, however, maintained a dignified silence and some of closest colleagues have come out in support of her including Osman Khalid Butt, Adnan Siddiqui and Aijaz Aslam.. Noted Pakistani actor Adnan Siddiqui, slamming the haters, wrote: “Came through what’s being called BTS images of my colleague and a friend #SabaQamar’s recently done photoshoot which is spreading on social media like wildfire, I’m deeply saddened by this act, this is not us and we shouldn’t take pride in it in any manner! #support #friendship.” Came through what’s being called BTS images of my colleague and a friend #SabaQamar’s recently done photoshoot which is spreading on social media like wildfire, I’m deeply saddened by this act, this is not us and we shouldn’t take pride in it in any manner! #support #friendship pic.twitter.com/T17zud6k90 — Adnan Siddiqui (@adnanactor) July 20, 2018 Osman Khalid, who acted in TV drama Baaghi with Saba, has written an Instagram post criticising the haters. “For the love of God, stop looking for every excuse to drag your icons down... Stop sharing these images/videos and stop commenting on them. If you want to speak out, speak out against the jahalat of whoever did this just for social media infamy,” read a part of his Instagram post. Lifestyle journalist Mishaal Cheema posted a long note on Twitter, defending Saba while attacking trolls of all hue and colour who use an amazing media like Twitter for all the wrong reasons. Sharing her post, she wrote: “This message is for a very fine actress of Pakistan who is going through something ridiculous being done to defame her. Please give it a look and share to show support to her and this Industry! @s_qamarzaman #IsupportSabaQamar #SabaQamar #Lollywood #PakistaniShowbiz.” This message is for a very fine actress of Pakistan who is going through something ridiculous being done to defame her.

Pakistani actress Saba Qamar was attacked by trolls online after private photos of her were leaked. The photos show Qamar in a sheer shirt while holding a cigarette in her hand. The pictures were taken while the Hindi Medium actress was taking a cigarette break in the middle of a photo shoot. Once the pictures were leaked, several people online started trolling and attacking the actress, saying that what she was doing was wrong because smoking was against her religion and position as a woman and that she was shaming the Muslim community. She was also incessantly harassed by others who commented on her clothes and how revealing they were. The actress also received comparisons to Mahira Khan, who faced similar problems when some pictures of her clad in a white backless dress taking a cigarette break with Ranbir Kapoor made it to social media last year.

These include Aijaz Aslam, Adnan Siddiqui and Baaghi co-star Osman Khalid Butt. There were several others who came to the actress’s defense, pointing out that slut-shaming is wrong and cigarettes and smoking harm everyone, regardless of gender.
