A leading Pakistani Newspaper ‘Jang’ selected the Bollywood actress Nargis Fakhri photo as their cover image. But, whereas in Pakistan people love to see girls in burkha, Nargis spotting on cover page was protested by some and some of them are supporting it.
Nargis lying down with a phone in her hand and was draped in a thick red dress is the cover photo of the leading paper.
Pak journalist Ansar Abbasi was the first one to criticize the ad by placing it on the micro-blogging site and later many of them added their views.
Here’s what they have tweeted:
Abbasi: My strong protest to top Jang group management for this absurd front page ad in today’s Jang.
Matiullah Jan: @AnsarAAbbasi you are right, her beautiful body curves have nothing to do with 3G phone and its ‘cheap price’. I fully agree with you dear.
Athar Ali Khan: Dayummm @NargisFakhri
Omno: Why did you dirty the newspaper by putting Nargis’s photograph on it?
Muhammed Amer: @AnsarAAbbasi why newspapers are trying to be like playboy or weekend type of magazine? These kind of ads look good in magazine not on NP.
Mirza Lamer King: Today they have put Nargis’s image. Tomorrow they will show Sunny Leone.
Kadar Khan: @AnsarAAbbasi Front page ad looks absurd but corruption, loot and plunder of the government is acceptable.
Aleem Qadeer: Could have used a talent like @NargisFakhri in a much better way.
Nadia: Those offended by Nargis Fakhri’s curves on a paper will be the first to mentally measure a woman up, they see in real.
Malik: Shame on Express & Jhang? for showing Nargis fakhri.
