Why is violence against women chosen only when the hat falls off?”

She said that in the latest episode of the drama “Khuda Aur Mohabbat”, the character of the drama Nazim Shah slaps his wife on the issue of going to the shrine with Mahi.

She wrote that a husband and wife could talk under normal circumstances, but the writer showed that when a man gets angry, he calms down only by abusing women.

Sharmila Farooqi said that it is not known why our writers do not show men as polite in their dramas, why they show every man in such a way that the man gets angry and goes out of his mind and starts resorting to violence.
