Aagha Ali faced immense backlash on social media after a video went viral in which he was describing how Pathans speak on the phone in Pushto.
It was an old video of a morning show at APlus in which Aagha, Neelam Munir, and Faisal Qureshi were the guests. During the show, Aagha mimicked how a Pathan speaks on the phone in Pushto.
Adding on, Aagha said he had never seen Pathans speak calmly or lovingly. “Every time I see Pathans talking in Pushto, it feels like they are scolding each other,” he was quoted saying.

His comments made rounds on social media and people didn’t like the actor making fun of Pathans. #AaghaAliMafiMango remained trend on Twitter with people asking him for a public apology.
Agha Ali says he has never seen Pathan speak calmly or lovingly. My question is, how much do you know, about Pathans? As much as your actresses dance in Pashto films & Pashtun heroes are behind them in anger. What more knowledge do you have about pathans?#AaghaAliMafiMango pic.twitter.com/HxBFYJpuaU

Simple question,
why they only target pashtoons ?
it’s not the first time incident like this happened many times,,
why their mentality is so toxic about pashtoons ?
why ?
maybe they inherent from their parents. #AaghaAliMafiMango pic.twitter.com/eBM1ediHLP— Salman Khan (@drsalmankhan55) August 18, 2020

You yourself belong to a third class family that is why you do not remember the history of Pakhtuns#AaghaAliMafiMango @wisalb pic.twitter.com/5qSCH0ENTc— Inayat Inayat (@InayatI04927684) August 18, 2020

How foolish @AaghaAli is who is mocking at pashtuns with such a pride along with weird facial expressions.
