Saba Qamar wrote in her caption saying:
This is also the only sequence that was shot at the historical Wazir Khan Mosque. It’s a prologue to the music video featuring a Nikah scene. It was neither shot with any sort of playback music nor has it been edited to the music track.
The actress further stated that disrespecting a holy place is as unimaginable to her as any other decent human being and also apologized saying:
Despite this if we have unknowingly hurt anyone’s sentiments we apologise to you all with all our heart. Love & Peace!
