Famous Pakistani singer Aima Baig recently got herself into the whirlwind of a social media storm due to the bold pictures she shared on her Instagram.
Her fashioning drew comparisons with Indian actress and model Urfi Javed, known for her controversial and daring outfits that mostly bring her public criticism.
Urfi Javed, who often makes headlines for her bold attires, has turned out to be a synonym for ‘bold fashion’ in India.
It now looks like social media in Pakistan has pitted her against Aima Baig, even tagging her as “Urfi Javed of Pakistan” regarding the singer’s recent pictures.
In her recent pictures on Instagram, Aima Baig had donned a red top, paired with a casual overshirt and jeans. While the picture looked relatively modest compared to Urfi Javed’s signature style, the pictures of Baig weren’t spared from the cyber critics either.
Many social media pages shared the images as users called her style “inappropriate” and said that she was desperate for attention by making bold fashion statements.
The comments section filled immediately with mocking remarks, some users noting sarcastically that she had indeed left little to the imagination, while others joked about her choice of clothing in a derogatory manner. “Thank God I’m blind; I can’t see anything,” one user said in a sarcastic remark.
Meanwhile, fans of Aima Baig came to her defense, citing freedom of choice in matters of personal style. Still, the label “Urfi Javed of Pakistan” seems to be trending, attesting to a growing juncture of celebrity culture and the cruel judgment that often comes with social media.
