Veena Malik makes Rs 4 million from shelved Astaghfaar show

Veena Malik 2

Controversial actress Veena Malik reportedly earned Rs 4 million remuneration for acting in the promo and a few recorded shows of Hero TV’s special Ramadan programme “Astaghfaar”, which has been shelved due to public pressure. A news website, News Tribe, claimed that Hero TV also incurred losses of millions of rupees on the shoot of the programme as five or six episodes had been completed for transmission besides huge expenses of the staffers deputed in Dubai for the show. Social media played an important role towards stoppage of the programme in few days, as the voices reached the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority which directed Hero TV management to stop the show promo and avoid airing it in Ramadan. The website claimed that the management has called upon their staff members from Dubai despite the fact that they have spent huge money on the programme.
