Pakistani actress Mishi Khan further fuelled the controversy after she released a video in which she criticised the TikToker for “stooping to the lowest level” for fame. However, Khan didn't mention Manahil Malik directly in the video, but the references she made were directed towards the TikToker.

 

“Shameful to see these influencers stooping to the lowest level for fame & disgracing their families, parents & the society. They should be banned from using social media,” Mishi Khan captioned the Instagram video.

In her Instagram video, Mishi Khan likely got inspired by Kareena Kapoor Khan's Bollywood movie ‘Heroine’. In the movie, the lead character leaks her own explicit video just for the sake of popularity prior to the release of her film.

Mishi Khan also said that she is disheartened to see these types of videos of the popular celebrity on TikTok and also demanded the complete ban of such stars from social media.
