Alizeh Shah released a new song but the audience got fixated on the wrong thing
Up and coming actress Alizeh Shah has quickly made a name for herself owing to her good looks and undisputed talent. She has impressed the audience with her acting abilities and has been in the public eye for quite some time because of her stunning performances in TV dramas like Ehd e Wafa, Mera Dil Mera Dushman, Ishq Tamasha, and many others. Well, the actress just made her singing debut but it hasn’t gone quite the way you would think.
Alizeh Shah recently made her singing debut in a new song with Sahir Ali Bagga, called, Badnamiyian
The song was released by Sahir Ali Bagga’s official YouTube channel a couple days ago. Alizeh was not only a part of the video but she also sang the song herself which was a composition by Sahir Ali Bagga.
The release of the song was followed by a severe backlash from the audience who did not really like Alizeh’s singing
Quite a few people noticed that it sounded suspiciously auto-tuned. While auto-tune and other such voice tuning tools are quite common in the music industry, to the audience, Alizeh sounded a bit too robotic.
They went on to say that the only bearable part of the song was Sahir’s bit
People brutally trolled the actress for her singing
However, the audience really did not stop there, they continued to comment on the way the actress was dressed in her song and ventured into full blown bullying

On the contrary, a few tried to school the people by explaining how the criticism was wrongly directed towards the clothes of the actress
#AlizehShah will be receiving hate for the next two days for wearing a tank top by the same countrymen whose number 1 trending program in Ramzan was Sexify.

Alizeh Shah responded to the trolling by questioning the priorities of the audience to focus on her clothing instead of on matters she felt were more important
She questioned people who have focused on this song and its criticism instead of talking about other important issues like Palestine.
It needs to be understood that whatever way an individual dress up is their own choice and people can’t dictate their own opinions or preferences regarding this. More importantly, Alizeh is an actress. The whole point of being a good actress or entertainer is that she is able to showcase diverse looks and characters. Similarly, this “modern” new look is a marked change for Alizeh from her usually conservative drama looks. The audience’s criticism based on their own biases is completely unfounded. But most importantly, our audience needs to learn the fact that clothes can’t serve as a parameter for judging morality and the character of an individual.
