Women on social media also requested Atif to take strict action against the organizers and people also wrote that management should ensure better arrangements in the future to avoid such unpleasant incidents.

This isn’t the first time that such an incident happened at Atif Aslam’s concert. In 2017, during a concert in Karachi, he had to call out harassers during the concert asking them to respect women. The concert that was organized by the Institute of Business Administration (IBA) become ugly when a lot of people gate-crashed the event. The crowd went out of control and many women were harassed and molested.

Atif asked the men harassing girls, 'Have you never seen a girl before?' or 'Do you have women at home?' and then ordered security to come on stage.
