KARACHI: Pakistani actress Momina Iqbal has reacted strongly to a fake video regarding her gender identity, saying, “It is a very painful moment to ask a girl to prove her womanhood.”
The actress recently gave an interview in which she was asked questions related to the issue.
Referring to the fake video that went viral on social media, Momina said that the clip was taken from an interview given in August 2022 and was edited and spread in a misleading way, which received more than 45 million views.
She said that during this time, reporters kept calling her and she was hesitant on how to respond, thinking how could someone ask such a question to a girl.
The actress added that people around her were advising her to issue a clarification, but she thought, “Should I just give my doctor’s number?” She described the whole situation as very strange.
Momina said, “If I were really like that, I would have accepted it, but how can I respond to such a lie when I am not?”
A video of Momina Iqbal went viral on social media, showing her talking about her gender.
