On Pakistan's most awaited movie ‘Teefa in Trouble’ has been released and before the official release of the film, Pakistani celebrities attended the star-studded movie premiere on Thursday at Nuplex cinema.
While all the celebrities socialized at the premiere, actor Feroze Khan was seen arguing with a group of protesters outside the cinema, who were protesting against film's leading actor Ali Zafar for sexual harassment allegations leveled against him by singer Meesha Shafi.
Feroze, who was one of the celebs attending the film's premier, was asked by protesters why he was not boycotting Ali. Feroze initially remained calm and asked the protesters, who were chanting ‘Boycott Ali Zafar’, to ‘respect’ but eventually the actor lost his cool while supporting Ali, as he walked off making rude hand gestures at the protesters. He also indulged into some heated arguments with some fans. Nevertheless, protesters outside the cinema kept protesting during the premiere.

NOT a good look, Feroze.

Ali has been denounced by many of his fans after singer Meesha accused Ali for sexually harassing her. Ali, however, denied all the allegations and clarified, “With time everything comes out and the truth unveils itself”.
The case is still going on as Ali Zafar has claimed that he does not want a quarrel on social media and disrespect the movement, his family, the media industry and his fans.
