Lollywood star Meera known for her gaffes more then her acting skills sparked yet another controversy earlier this week by criticising fellow actor Mahira Khan and her performances. “She does not know how to act so don’t waste your time ‘to’ watching her movies and commercials,” tweeted Meera earlier this week, on the micro blogging site “Twitter”. The tweet could use some linguistic tweaking but the message was loud and clear.
“Mahira Khan replaced me in a major project by Momina Duraid — she literally took that project away from me,” claimed Meera. Although she did not disclose the name of said project, Meera justified her statements further by accusing Mahira of campaigning against her. “Even I have met many Bollywood celebrities, including Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan and Karan Johar. In fact, SRK even offered me a film,” said Meera. “But because of Mahira’s campaign against me, I lost all my projects in the Indian industry and she got one”.
According to Meera, who recently came under fire when the Lahore High Court issued a non-bailable warrant in her name, Mahira’s sole claim to stardom is her lobby in Karachi. “I am still a super star and have made a number of remarkable films so it is unfair that Mahira gets all the work and I don’t,” asserted Meera. “Had she not established her own lobby in the Karachi segment, she wouldn’t have made it so far.”
Meera the controversial actor believes that she proved her ‘brilliant’ acting skills in the film Hotal, because of which fans are looking forward to her work. “If we create groups within the industry, the situation will get worse. So, I humbly request Mahira to come forward on the basis of her talent only and stop sidelining me.” Mahira herself was, unfortunately, not available for comment.
