Started from the bottom, now they are here. Minal Khan and Saboor Aly are inspiring their young fans every day with their talent and devotion. The young starlets have successfully made a name for themselves in the drama industry.
The best friends recently appeared on Time Out with Ahsan Khan together and spoke in detail about their future projects, their road to popularity through negative characters and why social media has become so toxic.
Minal and Saboor talk about the dark side of social media
Lately, Minal Khan and Saboor Aly have been receiving a lot of negative criticism on social media. They get trolled often and when Ahsan Khan asked them whether their online presence bothers them, the Jalan star said,
“Social media is very crucial. We need to value the point of view of the masses and their expectations but never be driven to only meet the ideas the public approve of, because we have our own lives too. I think people should learn how to not be judgmental all the time.”
Saboor continued,
“If you, as public, find anything inappropriate or not according to your own standards, please try to ignore it. Negative feedback only affects us; it takes seconds for you to type it down but it leaves a huge impact on us. Even if you try to forget that moment, people remind you of it over and over again and that only spreads negativity.”
Minal then shared how some influencers tend to look at the other side and try to spread negativity among their followers.
“I think these bloggers and influencers, have this habit of picking out clips from certain shows and framing them in a way that they appear to be ‘bad’ just for the sake of likes and shares and for me, this is the gist of social media. Only negativity finds its way online, drawing a curtain over anything positive.”
Both Minal and Saboor concluded that people need to use their platforms in the best ways possible, to spread positivity and hope.
