“Maybe she could not afford to buy a salwar.”
Pakistani actress Ushna Shah has once again become the centre of a heated social media debate after posting a bold airport photo.
The actress shared the picture on her Instagram story, where she was seen posing alongside her family before departing.
Ushna wore a sleeveless button-up kameez paired with a multicoloured scarf wrapped around her neck.
But what drew attention was her decision not to wear a salwar.
Many online users interpreted this as an intentional display, sparking criticism that she was promoting vulgarity through her fashion choices.
Comments poured in rapidly, with one user writing that Ushna looked “extremely vulgar” and was “pushing unnecessary boldness”.
Another remarked that she was “too old for this kind of stupidity”, while others mocked her Muslim identity.
Jokes also flooded social media, with some suggesting the actress “forgot her saalwar in a hurry” before leaving home.
Another commenter sarcastically claimed: “Maybe she could not afford to buy a salwar.”
Several critics resorted to body-shaming,
One user called her “an advertisement for polio drops”, while another said her “knobbly knees and scrawny legs” ruined any appeal.
Not all criticism was about exposure, as some pointed out that the combination simply made the outfit look incomplete.
One observation claimed: “If she wore a mini dress, it would not look this bad, but this seems unfinished.”
Another suggested Ushna had deliberately dressed this way to seek attention amid fewer acting opportunities in recent months.

A commenter harshly stated:
“No one is taking her in dramas or films, so she is pulling such desperate stunts.”
This latest controversy follows backlash from her appearance at Nueplex Cinemas for the premiere of the horror film Deemak.
At the event, Ushna wore a sleeveless silver blouse paired with dark blue trousers.
Viewers quickly noted that the shimmering blouse was form-fitting, and Ushna appeared not to be wearing a bra.
While her confident red carpet look turned heads, harsh online remarks accused her of crossing cultural boundaries for attention.
The recurring backlash reflects ongoing tension over celebrity fashion, with fans condemning the perceived vulgarity.
Despite the storm of criticism, Ushna Shah has not publicly responded, leaving followers debating whether bold fashion is worth the outrage.
