Ushna Shah has elaborated on her tweet pertaining to late actor Qavi Khan not receiving single life-time achievement award from TV industry before his passing. Habs star recalled being heartbroken to find out that he was, in fact, expecting to be awarded by those he worked with and hoped for her peers to do better. 

“Sigh! I can’t believe I have to break this down actually,” wrote Shah in an Instagram Story. She started off by clarifying that she had tweeted about awards presented by private TV channels, not civil awards that are presented by government of Pakistan annually. “Drama industry is privatised as are awards,” she noted.

“I questioned us, current, standing, privatised drama industry and all award shows that come with it, and urged us to do better. It’s an unfortunate oversight and only when we recognise these oversights can we fix them in future.” To conclude, she asked, “What is so terrible about this?”
