Maria Wasti talks about unprofessionalism in showbiz

By Huma Yasir

Maria Wasti is a legendary artist who speaks up against the issues of society. She always stands up for women rights and is one of the most vocal feminists of the industry. In her recent interview, she talked about unprofessional behaviour in showbiz and how one should tackle it.
She said, “You face many pleasant and unpleasant events and I had the pleasure to work with such people to whom I said that please don’t call me for any project.
You can get offers from anywhere but how you deal with it and whether you say yes to it or no to it, it’s your responsibility.
Before committing to anything I have both options. Saying ‘no’ is a very important thing.”
Furthermore, she shared her opinion on cancel culture in the industry and said, “There are some norms and protocols which you have to follow but bullying is wrong. You can like or dislike a person but bullying is not okay.”
“Some production houses don’t want to work with me and I can’t do anything about it but overall, this bullying culture is wrong and if I see it happening I won’t be a part of it. I will condemn it. If personally you like or dislike a person, you have to keep it aside when working together,” she added.
Maria Wasti clearly said, “I cancel the idea of cancel culture.”
