TV actress Iqra Aziz has lauded Geo Entertainment and 7th Sky Entertainment for suspending Khalil-Ur-Rehman Qamar's contract over use of inappropriate language against a woman on live television.
Taking to her Instagram stories, the actress shared a screenshot of a report on Geo's decision with a caption that read,"Thankyou for standing with your leading ladies and for all the women."
Qamar sparked a national row this week after he hurled abuse at a women´s rights activist, drawing condemnations from politicians and celebrities on social media.
Earlier, Geo Entertainment on Thursday said in a statement that they are suspending Qamar's contract until he tenders an apology, days after the famous playwright was signed to write four drama serials and a feature film for the channel.
