It was a glitzy Halloween party and the placard had read “Mahira ko bahar nikalo”. It was all fun at the party, however Pakistani actress Mahira Khan apologized for posing with a man dressed up as a Shiv Sena activist, in a series of tweets.
According to Mahira, it was all in fun and she meant no harm or offense to anyone. Hence, she apologized if her actions unintentionally offended anyone and stated that it had been said before that artists should not be dragged into politics.
The image from a Halloween event I attended has been made out to be something it never was.

It was not done intentionally to hurt anybody’s sentiments, neither to make a political statement. — Mahira Khan (@TheMahiraKhan) November 4, 2015
As many have said before me, artists are creative people who can’t be dragged into the politics of nations.

I have always made a concerted effort to maintain this standard for myself. Love and peace to all.
