"I want to address this clearly."
Hania Aamir has officially addressed the controversy surrounding Umer Mukhtar by declaring a strict zero-tolerance policy against any workplace harassment.
The popular actress broke her silence on February 20, 2026, after being linked to the senior HUM TV producer online.
Public scrutiny intensified after model Mahnoor Rahim accused Mukhtar of inappropriate behaviour and questioned Hania for maintaining close professional ties.
Responding via her Instagram Stories, the star made it clear that she stands firmly with the victims.
She explained that her name was mentioned in conversations regarding a situation she had no previous personal knowledge of.
Hania clarified that she does not support any conduct that compromises the safety and dignity of women and girls.
She said: “My name has recently been mentioned in online conversations regarding a situation I had no knowledge of or involvement in… I want to address this clearly.”
The controversy began when Mahnoor Rahim shared her personal experience involving the producer during a trip to Canada.
She claimed that Mukhtar messaged her at 3 am under the guise of work but only wanted a personal chat.
Mahnoor confronted him and shared the screenshots with his wife, who reportedly thanked the model for the honest information.
The influencer later released a follow-up video stating that many underage girls had reached out with similar disturbing stories.
She specifically called out the Meri Zindagi Hai Tu actress for her friendship with a man accused of harassment.
As a UN National Goodwill Ambassador, Hania felt a deep responsibility to clarify her position and distance herself immediately.
She said: “These are serious realities that must always be treated with gravity and respect.”
In her lengthy statement, the actress expressed her full support for the brave survivors.
She commended Mahnoor and the other girls for their courage in standing up for an environment where everyone feels safe.
Hania confirmed that she is now distancing herself from Mukhtar to ensure her values remain clear to her fans.
“Any perceived association should not be interpreted as endorsement of another person’s actions.”
By taking this stand, Hania Aamir reaffirms her commitment to the protection and dignity of women in the media.
Her decision to cut ties follows a growing trend of public figures being held accountable for their industry associations.
Fans have largely praised the actress for her transparent response and her willingness to prioritise ethics over professional connections.
Hania Aamir said: “As a woman, I believe in sharing responsibility to challenge harmful behaviour, support those who speak up and uphold standards that protect the dignity and safety of women and girls at all times.”
