Interestingly, it's not the common people this time but criticism on a leading film stars of the country has divided the politicians and journalists into fumed arguments.
The federal minister of science and technology asked Ali Muhammad Khan to focus on some creative work.
Whereas Arshad Sharif, a prominent journalist also favors the ad and criticized Ansar Abbasi and PEMRA upon the ban

In past, the gala biscuit ad was performed by actress Noor, almost with the same theme and was very popular among the audience.
What is your stance on ban of such ad as previously we have observed that PEMRA ban was not taken seriously by any TV channel and banned dramas and content is still on air on TV channels. Drama serial Jalan from ARY digital and the tick tick show is one such example of this.
