Jade, thanks so much for the link, it made for some interesting reading. Man that girl is really taking some bashing. The views so far which I have read suggest that they are mad at her either this way or that way.

But what I feel that even if this was genuine (that she did not want to sing due to pressure or talk back home) then she should have said that outside the stage i.e. before the show and to the director.

Once she says these things on stage in full costume and make-up and more than eager mom, it becomes a gimmick and lacks any truth.

Even if the channel would have shown a clipping (for TRP) that she approached the director or the Gurus earlier (i.e. before the shoot began) with this problem and they convinced her to continue then it would still seem genuine.

But one thing is sure that her antics are not being appreciated by a very large number of people on both sides of the border. I hope that in future she stays away from these regular gimmicks and tries to sing to the best of her ability.

Is there a fatwa or something on her? She can come in a burkha and participate. I don't mind. Prefer not to see her beehive bonnet and squeaky 5year old moany groany talk! 😆

Wow If I appreciate Zaheer for maintaining structure of puria dhaneshree in hai rama ye kya hua and criticise Mitika in the same breath it is acceptable.

Its funny that as long Indian s supported Amanat Ali last year with all heart it was OK and expected along the line, now when a mediocre singer is being dissected who is in the show purely because this would increase viewership in Pakistan it is xenophobia.It is so imp to be politically correct these days.

I feel that if she (or the channel) is trying to show that there is a lot of criticism for her singing on stage then it is wrong. In the link posted by summer it looks like many people are upset that she is showing them in poor light by saying things like that and is bowing down to the vote / trp pressure. Which is exactly what I had felt when I saw that episode.

It can be true. Actually, I think it is true BUT this criticism should not come as a surprise to the ma-beti jodi. After all, they live in Pakistan! They should know how fanatic those mullahs can be. They should have prepared themselves for all the criticism etc knowing the society they live in first hand.

Good to see yr post after a long time Reema.

I think what Sara says is pretty much true.I have a very close friend,who happens to be a pakistani and she tells me that they do object to girls singing this way in public.No wonder Sara is very tensed abt the whole thing.
