When Veena is interviewed by the international channel, she has proved her stance against the issue of blasphemy. Veena Malik was asked her stance on the sentence; she clearly stated that, “I and my husband are innocent. We were invited as guests on the show and were unaware of the content and the script of it. The content of the show wasn’t even blasphemous because the manqabat that was being played in the background is played very often in wedding functions, so much so that people are seen dancing and kissing while it plays in the background. We cannot control the camera or the screening of the show. I with my husband was sitting in a respectful manner and whose were putting up allegations that I and Khattak were dancing then I must tell them that weren’t doing anything of this sort”.
