Hijab Khalil, daughter of Pakistani playwright Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar, faces backlash online due to her father’s recent scandal.
Hijab, a TikTok personality and social media influencer, regularly shares acting and lip-sync videos on her Instagram account. Her posts have recently been flooded with negative comments and questions about her father’s actions.
The controversy began when an obscene video of Qamar was leaked, involving him in a honey-trapping scheme orchestrated by a criminal group. This resulted in Qamar paying a ransom for his release.
The main suspect in the kidnapping case leaked videos of Qamar after being arrested. One video shows Qamar smoking in a private room with a woman nearby. Another clip depicts him nude and engaging in inappropriate conduct with the woman.
Social media users have been sarcastically questioning Hijab about her father’s situation and advising her to care for him. Some have criticized her for continuing to post lip-sync videos amid the controversy. In response, Hijab has restricted comments on her posts and seems to ignore the negative remarks.
One commenter wrote, “Your father is dealing with a case, and you’re here making money.” Others sarcastically asked, “How’s your father? Have the kidnappers contacted you again?”
Some mocked her father’s late-night meeting, while others questioned her feelings about his actions.
