Veteran Pakistani actress Saba Faisal has addressed the criticism surrounding her public views with a personal message about tradition, identity and independence.
The actress shared a video on Instagram featuring herself reciting a poetic statement about her connection with her mother and cultural roots. At the same time, she spoke about her dreams, personal choices and desire to build an independent identity.
Her message comes as her views on traditional and modern values continue to attract attention on social media.
Saba Faisal Shares Message About Tradition and Independence
In the video, Saba reflected on the influence of her mother and the traditions she inherited. However, she also emphasised that tradition does not prevent her from having personal ambitions.
She described herself as a continuation of her mother’s story while expressing a desire to make her own decisions. Her message brought together cultural values, family traditions and personal independence.
Saba said:
“I am the next chapter of my mother’s unfinished story. I am the new voice of an old civilization. Rooted in my origins, yet looking towards the sky. I need a pen along with my bangles, and wings along with my anklets. My eyes need kajal, but they also need big dreams. I need the prayers of my elders, but I also need the freedom to make my own decisions. I want to hold someone’s hand, but only after I have learned to stand firmly on my own feet. I am my mother’s unfinished story.”
Through the statement, the actress presented tradition and independence as values that can exist together. Rather than choosing between the two, she spoke about maintaining her cultural identity while pursuing her own dreams.
‘My Opinion Is My Voice’: Saba Faisal
Saba further addressed people who may disagree with her views in the caption accompanying the video.
She acknowledged that others can have different opinions while making it clear that she intends to express her own perspective.
“My language is my opinion, but what you say is also valid, and I respect your opinion. Only Allah has the power to grant honour and take it away.”
Her response comes amid ongoing discussions about her views on traditional and modern values in Pakistani society. Her comments have previously attracted both support and criticism on social media.
The latest post has continued that discussion, with some users questioning her perspective and others engaging with the message she shared.
Social Media Users React to Her Message
Several users responded critically to Saba’s latest post. One commenter directly challenged her decision to express her opinions publicly.
“You are the complete voice of the old civilization. So please stay quiet and do not express your opinion because whenever you talk, you say a lot of wrong things. So keep quiet.”
Other critics accused the actress of hypocrisy and used the term “pick-me” while referring to controversies involving her family and earlier public statements.
Despite the criticism, Saba’s latest message focused on her own identity and the balance between inherited traditions and personal freedom. Her words have once again placed her views at the centre of a social media discussion, where users continue to respond from different perspectives.
