Meesha Shafi took the internet and fans by a storm when she opened up about being sexually harassed by Ali Zafar. Not only were fans shocked but they were also outraged. Ali has finally responded to the allegations and has slapped Meesha with a legal notice. The singer has asked her to either apologise to him or pay him Rs. 6 crore! Geo News reported that if Shafi doesn't apologise to the singer for the false allegations, she will have to pay the money under the Defamation Ordinance. The report further stated that a defamation case will be filed against her if she refrains from deleting the tweet and doesn't apologise before 23rd April 2018.

Meanwhile, Zafar told a media portal, "I categorically deny any and all claims of harassment lodged against me by Ms Shafi. I intend to take this through the courts of law and to address this professionally and seriously rather than to lodge any allegations here, contesting personal vendettas on social media and in turn disrespecting the movement, my family, the industry and my fans. Ultimately I am a strong believer that the truth, always prevails." Meesha had opened up about facing sexual harassment and called it a traumatic experience.
