During the interview, Zafar denied all the charges against him and said that he did not harass Shafi. “I don’t know why she is doing this, one should ask her,” he said during the interview.

Earlier, Meesha Shafi lashed out at Ali in a long Twitter post, accusing him of sexual harassment.

Sharing this because I believe that by speaking out about my own experience of sexual harassment, I will break the culture of silence that permeates through our society. It is not easy to speak out.. but it is harder to stay silent. My conscience will not allow it anymore #MeToo pic.twitter.com/iwex7e1NLZ
