Asma Abbas Defends Neelam Muneer: “Let Her Be Happy”

Veteran actress Asma Abbas has actively taken a stand against the wave of negativity that has engulfed Neelam Muneer’s recent wedding, directly addressing the trolls who have been relentlessly speculating about the couple’s personal lives. Abbas questioned the necessity of such invasive commentary and emphasized the importance of allowing the newlyweds to enjoy their happiness without undue interference.
Neelam Muneer, known for her role in Kahin Deep Jalay, recently tied the knot in a stunning ceremony in Dubai, an event that became the focal point of public attention as she shared glimpses of her wedding festivities. A highlight reel of her photoshoot with her husband, Mohammad Rashid, quickly captivated fans and admirers. However, alongside the admiration, the announcement also stirred widespread curiosity and led to intense speculation about her husband’s identity and background.
The Current reported that Neelam’s husband, Mohammad Rashid, is an officer with Dubai Police’s Crime Investigation Department. Despite the warm reception of the couple’s wedding photos, which showcased Neelam in a dazzling red bridal ensemble and Rashid in a regal white sherwani, the visuals sparked debates regarding Rashid’s nationality and profession.

Addressing this unwarranted scrutiny, Asma Abbas shared her thoughts in a heartfelt video on her YouTube channel. “Today, I want to talk about something that has been troubling me. Pakistan’s talented and sweet actress Neelam Muneer has gotten married, and she is such a beautiful soul,” she began. The Ranjha Ranjha Kardi actress expressed her disappointment with netizens for fixating on the groom’s identity rather than celebrating the couple’s joyous union.
“There is a limit to everything. First, you questioned his nationality, and now you’re discussing his profession. Why are people so curious about her personal life? Why can’t you let her be happy?” Abbas asked, her frustration evident. She went on to commend Neelam for choosing the right time to get married and urged fans to focus on positivity. “Please, try to be happy for others in their happiness,” she pleaded.

The public response to Neelam’s wedding has highlighted the intrusive nature of celebrity culture, where personal milestones often become fodder for public debates. Despite the negativity, Neelam’s wedding photos radiated happiness and love.

Celebrity photographer Abdul Samad Zia shared the first pictures of the couple’s Nikah, which went viral on social media. His caption celebrated the couple’s new beginning: “With this New Year, starting a ‘new chapter’ of their life, remember them in your prayers!”
For the ceremony in Dubai, Neelam stunned in an elegant all-white outfit by Baroque, complemented by pearl jewelry and flawless makeup by Rabia Anum’s team. Her groom, dressed in a traditional Arabic jubbah, perfectly complemented her look. One particularly striking image featured the couple posing with the iconic Burj Khalifa in the background, symbolizing a new chapter in their lives.
Despite the joy of their union, the relentless curiosity surrounding the couple’s details reflects the challenges celebrities face in maintaining privacy. Asma Abbas’s heartfelt message serves as a reminder to fans to celebrate the happiness of others rather than scrutinizing their choices.
