Summer Escape Turns into Online Storm
In the midst of an intense heatwave sweeping across Pakistan, Amna Ilyas chose to cool off at the beach. She shared a video enjoying the waves, running along the shore, and striking poses in true fashionista style. The background music? Bollywood’s romantic track “Khuda Jaane” from Bachna Ae Haseeno.
While the visuals may have impressed some, her outfit drew immediate criticism. Amna wore a light green shirt with open buttons, a cap, and see-through mesh trousers that clearly revealed her legs. Critics claimed her attire was inappropriate and attention-seeking.
