The ‘Baaghi’ actor Osman Khalid Butt came to Saba Qamar’s defense on Friday when the latter was being trolled for some images of her that had been leaked online. Qamar was seen in a somewhat translucent white button-down with a cigarette in her hand. As always, Twitterati lost their cool over the behind the scene shots and though Qamar decided to ignore them, her co-star Butt stood up for her. Butt took to social media and wrote, “Just heard about the all-too-familiar misogynistic, repulsive rhetoric that’s swept the nation once BTS pictures from Saba’s photoshoot were leaked (WITHOUT her consent).” Butt then aptly pointed out why trolling Qamar is problematic. “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,” he added. “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.” This is, of course, not the first time Butt has showed support for his fellow female artists. Previously, when Meesha Shafi accused Ali Zafar of harassing her on social media, many called it a publicity stunt. But Butt was not one of them. Published in Daily Times, July 23rd 2018.
