The actress stated that she “strongly condemn(s) any act of terror, (and) any loss of human life no matter which soil it is on.” She added, “As a Pakistani and citizen of the world I strongly condemn any act of terror, any loss of human life no matter which soil it is on. I will not rejoice in bloodshed and war. I will always hope for and dream of a world where my child can live without it, and always plead with everyone to imagine a peaceful world. It has also been in this time my faith in saner minds and goodness has been restored, thank you for the messages, love, and support.”

In her facebook post, she also stated, “In the 5 years that I have been working as an actor I believe that I have tried my best to keep my country’s respect intact – by being a professional and by representing Pakistan here and elsewhere to the best of my abilities.”

Since Mahira returned to Pakistan a few days ago, the makers of ‘Raees’ are facing problems. As per the reports on TOI, they still have to shoot for some pivotal sequences that require the actress. Mahira’s debut Bollywood film with Shahrukh Khan was scheduled for release in January 2017.
