Pakistani actress and filmmaker Hareem Farooq has responded to criticism and trolling on social media, saying that she decided 10 years ago not to care about what people say.
According to Daily Jang, the actress recently appeared alongside actor Faisal Qureshi in her film Mango Jatt. To promote the Punjabi-language film, she attended various events.
In a recent interview, Hareem Farooq spoke about criticism and trolling, saying that she had decided 10 years ago not to care about what people say about her.
The actress said that whether they are critics or social media trolls, they will continue to target you, but there is no benefit in constantly thinking about their remarks.
Hareem Farooq said that she does not read comments about herself on social media. Instead, she prefers to move forward in life and focus on her work.
Pakistani actors Faysal Quraishi and Hareem Farooq have become the centre of a social media debate after a dance performance during a university promotional event for their upcoming Punjabi film Mango Jatt.
The two stars are currently promoting the film, which is scheduled to hit cinemas on October 16, 2026. As part of the campaign, they have been attending events at universities and shopping malls to build excitement ahead of its release.
A video of their performance subsequently circulated on social media, prompting mixed reactions from viewers.
Several users criticised Faysal’s dance moves and questioned whether the performance suited his age. Some compared his steps to those seen in Bollywood songs, while others argued that such activities were inappropriate for a university setting.
Hareem also faced criticism, with some social media users commenting on her appearance. However, the online discussion was not entirely negative, as several people praised Faysal’s energy, fitness and willingness to enjoy himself regardless of his age.
