‘I was in deep grief’: Bushra Ansari responds to criticism after viral dance video

Pakistani actress Busha Ansari has lashed out at trolls criticising her for dancing with Azan Sami Khan recently, in a video that has now gone viral on social media.

In the video, Ansari can be seen dancing with Azan at a wedding function. No sooner had the video hit the internet and trolls were after the actress, calling her out for dancing without giving much thought to her age.

“I was in a deep grief from last 3 months..and that loss is going to be in our hearts till our last breathe. 2 days ago it was a family dholki and all my friends were there insisting me to get out of the stress and my sadness,” Ansari wrote in a lengthy Instagram post.

“Got up for 2 mins with my son azan to show my participation in their happiness..But sad ..to see people’s reaction. they just want to see us unhappy cas we are famous and specially when somebody is over a certain age..how pathetic”

“I am telling you this is the best age to enjoy life when u are done with all your duties and alhamdullillah I ve achieved so much in this age I don’t ve any regrets if I am over 60..so this cheap weapon of telling elders that u are old n u ve no right to be happy..why not? I don’t understand why young kids feel insecure of older people.. if this is the only flow being old, pl change your thinking or treat your parents the same way,” she said.

She concluded the post by telling “faceless trolls” to stop hurting people as it is against the teachings of Islam.
