Walk away when it is time, advocates Juggun Kazim

In a recent statement shared on his Instagram, Sarmad Khoosat voiced his frustration over an incident at a hospital where he was reprimanded for his choice of attire, despite wearing knee-length shorts. Khoosat expressed disbelief, questioning why hospitals should dictate what visitors wear, especially when they are not there for treatment but merely to meet a patient. He recounted being asked to leave or change into ill-fitting pants that were offered to him from a guard’s dusty drawer. The actor-cum-director condemned what he perceived as moral policing, asserting, "This country's policing and moral policing are truly a circus." He emphasised the absurdity of prioritising clothing regulations over patient care in a hospital setting, lamenting, "I hope they don't treat patients in wards and rooms based on their clothes." Khoosat highlighted the irony of being stopped by a guard who cited the presence of ladies inside as a reason for the dress code enforcement, sarcastically remarking, "May I please request the said ladies to focus on their loved ones' health and treatment and not be tempted by me."
