Pakistani drama critic Hassan Chaudhry has addressed ongoing speculation surrounding actress Ramsha Khan's absence from social media, clarifying that her decision to step away from the public eye was entirely her own choice.
Speaking on Something Haute with Aamna Isani, Hassan revealed that he had personally spoken to both Ramsha and her husband, actor Khushhal Khan, amid widespread speculation about their relationship following their marriage.
The speculation had intensified after Ramsha's sister's wedding, where fans noticed that Ramsha and Khushhal were largely absent from the footage that was shared online.
A video also surfaced on social media, with some netizens speculating that the couple had appeared in it.
Hassan said the absence quickly led to comments suggesting that Ramsha's life had changed because of her marriage.
"I saw a huge number of comments saying things like, 'This is what Ramsha has become after marrying Khushhal.'"
He said that he later spoke to both Ramsha and Khushhal and found them to be happy together.
"I spoke to Khushhal, and, mashallah, I also spoke directly to Ramsha."
Hassan said that he asked Ramsha about the speculation that she had been prevented from making public appearances. According to him, she made it very clear that she did not wish to remain in front of the camera at all times.
"When I asked her about it, she said that she does not want to be in front of the camera all the time. She has thought about this a great deal. I asked her what the reason was, and she made it clear that this was her own decision," he stated.
Hassan also recalled that Ramsha had spoken in previous interviews about the kind of life she wanted after marriage. He said that old clips from those interviews had resurfaced since her marriage, with social media users interpreting her earlier comments in light of her current absence from the public eye.
He also linked the intense public attention surrounding the couple's wedding to Ramsha's decision to maintain greater privacy.
