According to the actor, picking a clip and using it in a different context to malign a character is not journalism. “I do not think women should live under a constant fear that their husband will leave them. I am a husband myself and love my wife and she loves me, that’s the basic pillar of our relationship,” the Koi Chaand Rakh actor wrote.
The actor, who will be seen in an upcoming drama serial ‘Baddua’, also requested all the pages sharing such clips to do their basic fact checks then spread such negative content.
The actor recently appeared on a morning show where the host asked him about his opinion about a man’s second marriage. To which Butt responded that this fear should exist among wives that their husband might marry another woman and that way they should pamper their husbands more. He added that wives should look after their husbands.
