Aagha Ali raised concerns about the safety of women in Pakistan and expressed his desire for a society where women can freely travel. In a recent podcast with his wife Hina Altaf, and host, the actor discussed the contrast between the ease of moving around independently in other countries and in Pakistan. Ali acknowledged the conservative nature of Pakistani society and highlighted the paradox where men often speak passionately about women’s rights, yet unaccompanied women are a rare sight on the streets of Pakistan. “Talk to any man about this and he’ll give you an entire speech on women’s rights but try looking around in Pakistan, there are barely any women unaccompanied on the roads.” Drawing a comparison to their experiences in London, Ali and his wife noticed numerous women walking alone or with female friends, whereas, in Pakistan, the mere presence of a woman walking alone raises concerns. “I am not talking about after midnight, I am talking about during the day. You will never see a woman walking in a market. Even if you do then she’ll be so scared,” he added. He also suggested that people should travel and witness how women live in other countries to gain a better understanding of this pressing issue.
