The actor stressed that Pakistani women need to be taught how to draw strong boundaries and not tolerate anyone's disrespect or abuse.
She said her ex-husband abused her physically and psychologically, narrating an incident where he hit her with a frying pan for serving cold food.
But a person who is sick — yes, he’s sick — a person who does such uncouth things like raising a hand on someone — there is nothing more uncouth than that — I don’t even raise a hand on a dog, forget humans.”
Rizvi highlighted the importance of drawing healthy boundaries. “I wasn’t told how I can draw that line so in that stupidity, it took me four years. Otherwise, if I had been strong, had exposure or training to distinguish between right and wrong —
to know that tolerating abuse against oneself is also a sin — to abuse and to tolerate abuse are both sins. If someone had told me that, I would [be done] in six months — my three and a half years would not have been wasted,” she chuckled.
“I only have one regret — I have no regrets about my divorce, I am happy — if I have regrets, they’re only about wasting my prime youth on a person who’s still like that, he’s still at the same mental and spiritual growth levels as before,” she stated. The ‘Lambi Judaai’
singer also mentioned that when she called the cops in Oman, they refused to help, calling it a “domestic matter”.
