Bushra Ansari, a seasoned Pakistani artist from a media family, gained widespread recognition for her long, versatile, and acclaimed acting career. Her father Ahmed Bashir was a noted journalist, and her sisters Sumbal and Asma Abbas also pursued successful careers in acting. Bushra’s niece, Zara Noor Abbas, is now carrying on the family’s artistic legacy. Zara, a rising star, gained attention for her passion for dance, especially her praised classical performance in Deewar-e-Shab’s OST.

Recently, Zara shared a classical dance practice video on her Instagram. She told her followers that pregnancy had paused her dancing journey, but now she’s eager to return and practice consistently. Zara admitted that she hasn’t perfected her dance yet but remains committed to improving it. In her post, she expressed her desire to practice more and perfect her craft.
Bushra Ansari, known for her close bond with Zara, praised her niece in the comments by writing, “That’s like my good girl.” Please don’t stop now! Once a week I need this craft from you. Bushra intended her comment as a gesture of encouragement, but it sparked significant controversy online. Many social media users have criticized Bushra for praising Zara’s dance, citing concerns over Islamic values. Some users argued that such praise, especially using Islamic expressions like Mashallah, doesn’t align with religious teachings.

One user criticized, “Doing a sin is one thing, but praising it with Mashallah publicly shows a whole new level of audacity. ”The backlash highlights the ongoing debate about cultural norms, social media influence, and religious perspectives within the entertainment industry.




This incident continues to fuel discussions about the boundaries between personal expression, family support, and societal expectations. The controversy underscores how public figures must navigate the complexities of their personal and professional lives, especially when it comes to culturally sensitive issues.
