The video of the incident quickly went viral on social media, prompting a widespread reaction. Among those speaking out was actress Hania Aamir, who took to Instagram to voice her disapproval.
In her story, Hania wrote:
“Throwing things at an artist during a performance is not just disrespectful, it’s inhumane.”
She further stated,
“You cannot demand art and refuse to offer respect. No artist should be expected to perform in an environment where their safety and dignity are at risk.”
Hania added that Talha Anjum belongs on stage, not on a battlefield.
“Hold the crowd accountable, not the artist. If we don’t create a safe space for our performers, we don’t deserve them.”
In her closing remarks, she emphasized:
“Talha Anjum is an artist, not a target. Give public figures the respect they deserve.”
