Sadaf Kanwal’s latest interview and her views about feminism have taken the internet by storm. While her interview has managed to cause quite a stir, this definitely is not the first time Sadaf Kanwal has been under fire for her problematic statements.
Sadaf Kanwal, in an interview, has reduced the meaning of feminism to household chores & taking care of one’s “miyan”.
