Iqra Aziz and Yasir Hussain’s publicity stunt goes viral

Much is happening at this year’s Lux Style Awards. Yasir Hussain has proposed Iqra Aziz at the biggest award ceremony of Pakistan’s showbiz world. But this is not everybody is talking about right now.

A video clip of Iqra and Yasir has gone viral. The couple is getting attention for all the wrong reasons.

The clip shows Yasir proposing Iqra Aziz in the presence of the star-studded crowed. Then comes the engagement ring followed by hugs and kisses in the pressence of cameras. It is clearly a well thought out publicity stunt brazenly performed by the two stars.

The ‘good’ thing for the couple is that the video has gone viral. All social media platforms have gone crazy. Starting from Instagram the video has spread like wild fire on Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp and other platforms.

Iqra and Yasir could have avoided the ‘act’ in a society where people are not ready to step away from issues that concern only two individuals. The most corrupt, morally deranged and psychologically sick people of our society are always ready to be the moral judges when it comes to the life and freedom of other people.

The issue is not what Iqra Aziz and Yasir have done. The only point of discussion is that why they have done it. It is clearly a publicity stunt and the couple, it seems, had no qualms about it. Meera is one celebrity that is known for doing weird things to gain media limelight.

Yasir Hussain has proposed Iqra Aziz and she has said yes.

The strength of a star is his/her work that should speak louder than words. Cheap publicity stunts do no good to the stature of a person as a star. The fame and respect that Iqra Aziz has recently earned is due to her quality work in drama serials like Suno Chanda and Ranjha Ranjha Kardi.

There was a time when stars used to complain about their privacy being invaded by journalists. Tables have now turned. Actors of today are willing to expose even their intimate moments to the camera.
