Ayesha Omar also divulged details about her own sexual harassment case. She said it happened 13 years ago in the showbiz industry but she still does not have enough courage to talk about it because of the backlash women get after for speaking up in such instances.<\/p>\n

She said,<\/p>\n

No woman would want that kind of attention or backlash for talking about her sexual harassment incident.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

While talking about Meesha Shafi\u2019s sexual harassment allegations against Ali Zafar in an old interview with Ahsan Khan, Ayesha Omar had said, \u201cI hope I’m as brave as Meesha one day. The thing is that it’s when people like Meesha come forward, that other people draw the strength to tell their stories\u201d.<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cAli is one of the biggest actors in our industry, I’ve known him since childhood, he’s a friend of mine, but that doesn’t mean anything. If there is no proof of [what he’s been accused of], Ali has a right to deny anything. I would do the same. But that doesn’t mean we can doubt the honesty or intentions of the accuser\u201d.<\/p>\n
