"Shah Rukh Khan was the hero of my time," said Mahira Khan in a recent interview without realising that she would be accused of being mentally ill. The Pakistani actress who worked with Bollywood's King Khan in Raees, couldn't stop raving about her co-star in an interview with Anwar Maqsood at the Arts Council of Pakistan. Talking about her experience of working with Shah Rukh, Mahira said it was her dream to work with him and recalled an incident too.
After the interview went viral, the leader of the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) Dr. Afnan Ullah Khan shared his reaction on Twitter. He tweeted in Urdu, "Mahira Khan has a mental health problem and Anwar Maqsood is drunk in this part of life. Both these shameless characters are cursed by public. Books can be written on Mahira Khan’s character, she also flatters Indian actors for money. And Anwar Maqsood is a cursed character full of prejudice."

In the interview, Mahira said, "Shah Rukh Khan was the hero of my time and I was in love with him and used to think about working with him. It was a dream of mine that I never knew would be completed. The fact that I got to it was amazing. When I joined the industry, many people advised me to fix my nose, and I said, No! If I cut my nose off, then what’s left? But I’m being serious once Shah Rukh Khan and I were doing a scene and he said, ‘Look Look, this is the war of noses!"
She added, "He was so sweet to everyone around him, from the spot boy to other employees. It was him that inspired me to be humble no wonder how big a star you are, always be modest. Even in Pakistan, actors like Bushra Ansari are the same."
Well, post the tweet, Dr. Afnan Ullah Khan got trolled for the right reasons!
