Stuck in COVID-hit New York, Meera pleads PM Khan to help her return to Pakistan
Stranded in New York, Pakistan’s showbiz star Meera had asked for support from Prime Minister Imran Khan to bring her back to Pakistan.
In a video shared on Instagram in the US where the coronavirus has taken thousands of lives, Meera seemed helpless.
The actress had gone to America for several shows and film shoots, a month ago.
“Its 2:00am in New York City and I am confined in my room and addressing you (PM Imran). I had come to New York with several artists including Humayun Saeed for the shooting of a film and show. My colleagues have gone back to Pakistan but I am stuck in New York,” Meera said.
“I have no savings and my survival is difficult. New York is turning into a graveyard. Every day thousands of people are dying.”
However, in her emotional message, Meera says that she does not want to die ‘in a foreign land.’
“Dear prime minister, you have always supported artists. All countries are bringing back their citizens to their homelands. I request you to please make arrangements for my repatriation to Pakistan as I wish to die in my country,” she urged.
In addition, the Baaji actress issued a new statement in another video, thanking Pakistani diplomatic staff in New York for helping her # COVID19.
“The diplomatic staff in New York is much supportive as they provided me with the best of protection in a foreign land,” Meera said.
