Does this man have an off button? Day after day, writer Khalil ur Rehman makes it to the headlines for one sexist comment or another derogatory one. His target no longer just remain women – he has expanded his hate speech to include men too now.
On a tv show on Bol News, Khalil ur Rehman was found saying “The industry has been flooded by an army of transgenders, not that I’m against them”. He then goes out to state that he makes sure the actors in his dramas aren’t transgenders but he too made a mistake by casting one in his own role as Khalil in Sadqay Tumharay.

The actor playing Khalil ur Rehman in Sadqay Tumharay was in fact, Adnan Malik. He basically called Adnan Malik a “hijra” without actually using his name. Here’s the video:
Hijra hona is so much better than being a foul-mouth lowlife man.
Adnan Malik will always remain a better man for standing up for equal rights. Also for betterment of our society,KRQ shouldnt be given platform to propagate his filth. Applause & laughter he received is disturbing— SabahatMS (@SabahatMS) March 11, 2020
Several people (celebs even) have called out Khalil ur Rehman before, and now again; this time for using derogatory remarks for someone from the industry.

It takes a special kind of turd to presume that being called 'hijra' would register as an insult.
Dear turd, being trans is not something to be feared or insulted by.
In fact trans persons have more courage in their pinky fingernails than you have in your entire 'jism'. https://t.co/0S2GNRHIbM

This creature insulting and making fun of #AdnanMalik at the cost of an already extremely marginalised group. When you think he cant stoop any lower he surprises you by breaking his own revious record. #BoycottKhalilulRehman https://t.co/WphxAmRfow

Khalil-ur-Rehman Labels Adnan Malik As “Transgender” Because He Marched For Women!

How many lines does this writer need to cross before tv show hosts and producers realise that this man should not be given any more time on tv? Why do news channels continue to give him undeserved importance by inviting him as a guest on their talk shows? The TRPs are certainly not worth different sections of society being constantly targeted and humiliated on national tv! And we believe some strict action needs to be taken against certain news channels for allowing this man to be on air despite his senseless and derogatory remarks on both women, men and now transgenders too! Clearly Nadia Hussain agrees:
I'm reporting @BOLNETWORK to @reportpemra for airing this piece of shit!!!!!.
.
.HOW DARE this man use such derogatory terms for any human, Male, female or HIJRA????.

.WE'RE ALL HUMANS!!! https://t.co/TZAS2T0Qik— NADIA HUSSAIN (@NADIAHUSSAIN_NH) March 11, 2020
