"Shame on all those who promote such vulgarity"
Essa Arsalan has come under fire for sharing a dance video that the public claims is too “vulgar”.
Essa, the nephew of the renowned actor Shaan Shahid and son of Zarqa Shahid, is all set to make his debut.
His grand entrance into the showbiz industry will be through Syed Noor’s upcoming film Lalkara Singh in Lahore.
A recent Instagram video shared by Essa has sparked a wave of discussion and divided opinions among netizens.
The clip featured Essa dancing to a Punjabi song alongside model and singer Susan Khan.
The video raised speculation among viewers that it might be a preview of his upcoming film due to him tagging Lalkaary Productions.
In the video, Essa was dressed in a navy blue salwar kameez. It was paired with a yellow waistcoat.
Susan donned a green ensemble comprising a small blouse paired with a skirt that exposed her midriff.
The dance video received mixed reactions from social media users.
Some critics expressed discontent, labelling the performance vulgar and Susan’s attire highly inappropriate for a Pakistani production.
A user commented: “And we all thought Barzakh was vulgar.”
One said: “Didn’t believe at first that this was our local media. Shame on all those who promote such vulgarity, and pathetic lyrics.”
Additionally, several netizens drew parallels to Bollywood item numbers.
A user said: “Literally didn’t recognise it as national media, this is not even an item song and the dressing is so bad. Go on keep on justifying.”
One asked:
“I am confused, is he from Pakistan or India?”
In a recent interview, Zarqa Shahid disclosed her initial plans for Shaan to direct her son’s cinematic debut.
However, Shaan recommended a seasoned director like Syed Noor for the task, underscoring his confidence in Essa’s talent.
Hailing from a lineage of charismatic and talented individuals, Essa Arsalan is poised to carve his own path in the showbiz industry.
