After appearing on a podcast hosted by Mansoor Ali Khan, actor Hamza Ali Abbasi sparked controversy by publicly criticizing Imran Khan’s political strategy and the PTI’s tactics. He specifically denounced the lengthy marches and the May 9 events as “totally wrong.”
Imran Khan should have steered clear of conflict and protest-driven strategies, according to Hamza, who maintained that politics shouldn’t be viewed as a struggle between ultimate right and wrong.
His remarks caused a flurry of criticism, mainly among PTI followers, and triggered contentious discussions on social networking sites, especially X (previously Twitter), where responses have been strong and diverse.
