Leading actress and host Veena Malik has backed the Taliban government in Afghanistan.
Recently, the actress gave an interview to a German broadcaster's Urdu service in which she talked about women's clothing and the Taliban's rule over Afghanistan.
The actress said that the Taliban have established their government in Afghanistan, Afghanistan is connected with the Taliban, this is their land and place for which they fought a long war.
The host asked Veena if she had posted a picture of herself in a burqa on Instagram. "Do you intend to go to Afghanistan?" The actress replied with a smile that I would like to go to Kandahar, I love this place.
Regarding the burqa, she said that the abaya has been a part of my life since I was 13 years old. I still wear the burqa when I go out, not because someone forced me to do so. It is my personal choice. I feel safe in the burqa.
"I think the people there will be happy to adopt a dress code for the Taliban in Afghanistan because they are well aware of their traditions," she said.
On the other hand, Veena said about Pakistan that our country is an independent country, people here are wearing all kinds of clothes. I think showbiz should have our dress code, the government should give us a dress code that you have to live within these limits.
"We should not think too much about the government of Afghanistan. I sympathize with those industries where there are no restrictions. Artists are able to do whatever they want," she added.
It should be noted that actress Veena Malik will once again appear in a political satire and comedy show after a long absence of almost 12 years. Veena Malik's new show will be aired on digital platform Urdu Flex.
