In a video shared by UNHCR, Mahira says, “Pakistan has set an example for the world where a country has hosted refugees for the last 40 years… this is one cause, because I feel so strongly about it, this is something that I want to talk about, especially as Pakistan’s UNCHR National Goodwill Ambassador.”
Mahira is one of the few celebrities who are always vocal on every societal issue locally and internationally.
More power to you Mahira! What do you think about this initiative?
