On Thursday, 24th October 2019, Pakistani actor-singer Meesha Shafi stands out in support of director Jami Mehmood after he disclosed his worst experience of sexual assault recently. In this regard, the flag-bearer of the #MeToo movement in Pakistan stretched out her help to the movie maker in a progression of tweets. “Weeping for every one of you who will think anything over an unfortunate casualty shouting out. You don’t need to improve,” she said.

Crying for all of you who will believe anything over a victim speaking up. You don’t want change for the better. You only want to pretend to be upset as long as it doesn’t involve anything more uncomfortable than typing #neverforget https://t.co/nvklnEZfpH

“When we’re all trapped in our vile quagmire of filth, Who do these truth-tellers think they are?” she continued, showing support in the form of poetic verses. Meesha Shafi ended up by tending to Jami and expressing: “I see you. I hear you. I remain with you. Continuously.”

When we’re all trapped in our vile quagmire of filth,
Who do these truth tellers think they are?
Let’s mob them, rob them and eat them for dinner,
Lose whatever morals we have, let’s become even thinner. @jamiazaad I see you. I hear you. I stand with you. Always.

Reacting to Meesha’s support, the film director Jami Mehmood responded to her on twitter by sharing an emoji.

Aside from The Reluctant Fundamentalist actor, others illuminating presences from the industry additionally extend their solidarity with Jami, including on-screen characters Armeena Rana Khan, Angeline Malik and director Mehreen Jabbar. Prior this week, the Moor movie maker had opened up on Twitter about falling prey to rape 13 years back while also raising his voice for the #MeToo development and how harassers and attackers meander uninhibitedly in the wake of directing demonstrations of sexual savagery.
