With the Meesha Shafi vs Ali Zafar lawsuit still underway, fans are done waiting for a verdict and are calling for reconciliation.
Prior to the sexual harassment allegations, both singers were friends and worked together. Is this why one Netizen asked sportsman and musician Azam Jamil to mediate in the matter between Ali Zafar and Meesha Shafi?
Please use this hashtag #AliAndMeeshaPLSreconcile and request Ali and Meesha to forgive eachother.
For the sake of us – Because we love them both❤️
I've requested @AzamJamil53 to mediate 🙏@AliZafarsays @itsmeeshashafi #MeeshaShafi #AliZafar pic.twitter.com/LLFohsWzhV— roxana (@roxmiandin) March 24, 2021

In a tweet this fan requested that the former cricketer ‘guide the singers towards reconciliation’. The Reluctant Fundamentalist actress replied to the tweet with an affirmative response. She said she’s ‘all for peace‘.
“There certainly has been a lot of abuse. And it isn’t healthy at all. I’ve done nothing since speaking up though. Other than defending myself against the weaponization of the defamation laws. Many have tried to mediate. I am all for peace. “

Meanwhile, Ali Zafar has yet to comment on the statement.
The public is still on the fence about this issue. Many want to be part of both fandoms in peace, while others are calling for judicial action.
Agreed 100% . In fact I will request @itsmeeshashafi & Ali Zafar please ignore these haters on tweeter, they have nothing to lose. This is just a point of debate for them to share their intellectualism. Please go for peace and Love. #MeeshaShafi #AliZafar #Peace

Let justice be prevailed in AZ-MS case. Liberals talk of rule of law, let this be a test case. No!!!

It's not about them anymore
-one is representing the false accusation victims
-one is representing the harassed victimsIt has to be decided in court & has to be strict punishment for whomever found guilty.

Some Netizens voiced a lack of faith and trust in Pakistan’s judicial system.

People also questioned what sort of message reconciliation would send.
Ew this is so toxic. Forgive each other? Why should @itsmeeshashafi forgive her harasser? Why should anyone?
Peace probably just means for everyone to leave her alone instead of attacking her 24/7.— zlno (@noazln) April 1, 2021
Then there was the usual Meesha Shafi vs Ali Zafar fan stand-off.
Goes out to show who the bigger person is. 💕

That picture was a slap on the fake news of me being sentenced to jail. Which you believed. What other fake things do you believe about me?

What bs. If ali zafar has actually done what he is accused of, he should be severely punished, made an example out of. If meesha has used #metoo just for her benefit, she should be punished. Where did saza & jaza go? The worst to happen to our society is "choro na ab janay do".

Others questioned why Meesha Shafi was willing to make peace now, after a public lawsuit.

Then there were those that want the legal route to run its course. Even Azam Jamil wasn’t willing to step in.
You can of course have your opinion. I know this is a sensitive and complicated subject. The intention was just to sow a thought of forgiveness. They can "chew on this" and it is up to them to decide, not necessarily today. I do not think years of conflict are healthy for anyone.

Forget it Rox. Too much abuse in this endeavour. Let them do what they are doing. That's probably best for them.
