Soon after the news of Saba Qamar’s next film — Kamli — with Sarmad Khoosat broke out, an online entertainment portal started circulating reports that the actress has also signed a film, titled Dhai Chaal, on the life of Indian national and spy Kulbhushan Jadhav. However, Saba has denied the news in her social media post.
Taking to Twitter, Saba wrote that people make up news behind her back and confirmed that she has only signed Kamli.
It’s always so funny to know that behind my back I have signed another film that even I am not aware of! ?
Honestly If i do a film I will tell all of you myself that’s what i am here for. I am only doing Kamli for now, so stop posting fake news for the sake of ratings only! ?? pic.twitter.com/JzRtCGUuFc— Saba Qamar (@s_qamarzaman) September 15, 2019
Despite Saba’s refusal, the portal clarified that they have confirmed the news from the producers and other sources. They also reached out to Saba for confirmation before posting the news.
We had recieved confirmation from 3 people involved in the project, We also reached out to you before posting the news. We never post fake news & the quote of the producer is in the article. Pls address him not us while publicly denying the news. Thanks https://t.co/ke9puY5O5o

To this Saba added that, “You have received confirmation from three sources but not ME. Your claim of asking me for a confirmation before posting the news is totally wrong. I haven’t received any message like that. I’m denying this publicly because my name was used publicly without my consent for a project I’m not even a part of.â€

Other than Saba Qamar, the news report also claimed that Shamoon Abbasi has signed the said film, however the actor took to Instagram and denied all such claims.
“A humble request to the producers and filmmakers that are going to make films in the future, kindly lock things up with me before sending reports to bloggers and newspapers without any confirmation with me in the films,” he said adding, “This is the second film that I am mentioned in without any confirmation. Not that I mind but clarifying the matter with the news becomes a hassle indeed.”
