Popular TV actor Hiba Bukhari slammed a local publication in the country over fake news of domestic abuse on her.

During an interview on the set of her ongoing serial, Bukhari recalled an incident when she humorously tried to complain about her husband Arez Ahmed to her father in front of him, in order to tease him, but her father reassured her instead that it is how things work.
The clip was mispresented by the news channel, portraying that the actor was a victim of domestic violence in the early days of marriage, which was also the reason for her absence from TV screens for a long time.
Sharing a clip of the fake news report on her stories, Bukhari called out, “This is yellow journalism!! Stop spreading lies! It’s shameful!!”
It is pertinent to mention that Hiba Bukhari tied the knot with co-star Arez Ahmed last year in a close-knit ceremony, after making their relationship official in the later months of 2021.
In the same interview, the actor stated that she is happy in her marital life.
