Mathira Khan, a popular Pakistani influencer and entertainer, has found herself at the centre of controversy after alleged explicit videos, claimed to involve her, surfaced online. The videos, which remain unverified, have sparked uproar on social media. Mathira, however, has strongly denied the allegations, stating that her name and images are being used maliciously to create fake content aimed at tarnishing her reputation.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Mathira expressed her frustration, writing, "People are misusing my name and my photoshoot pictures to add fake stuff. Please have some shame! Keep me out of this trashy nonsense." She further emphasised that the videos are fabricated and called for an end to the baseless targeting of public figures.
