Zhalay Sarhadi Reveals Harassment Issues Within The Showbiz Industry (1)

Pakistani actress and model Zhalay Sarhadi recently spoke openly about harassment in the entertainment industry. She shared her personal experiences of facing inappropriate behavior and power abuse early in her career.

Zhalay Sarhadi revealed that she was once told to do favors to get a role, similar to what “other women would do.” She firmly rejected this demand and stood her ground. She said she had to confront harassment and improper advances from the beginning.

Despite the challenges, Zhalay Sarhadi said she refused to stay silent. She even gave a “shut-up call” to some people who crossed the line. Her strong response highlights the widespread issue of harassment in showbiz.

Zhalay also spoke about common cultural attitudes toward women’s earnings. She challenged the belief that women’s income is less valuable. “I have funded my own education, wedding, and car,” she said. This shows her independence and confidence.

The actress also recalled being judged superficially. A director once dismissed her for being “too tall,” even though height had no role in the part. She pointed out that such biased judgments still happen in the industry.

Zhalay Sarhadi’s candid words have sparked conversations about the need for change in Pakistani showbiz. Actress Mehar Bano supported her by confirming that harassment affects both men and women. Mehar said people with power often misuse it by demanding favors for work.

Both Zhalay Sarhadi and Mehar Bano’s voices add to the growing awareness of harassment in entertainment. Their stories emphasize the need for safer work environments and respect for all artists.

This discussion marks an important step toward addressing harassment in Pakistan’s entertainment industry. Many hope that more voices like Zhalay Sarhadi’s will lead to meaningful reforms.
