She stressed that respect must be earned, not demanded. She added, “Your authenticity will always threaten corrupt people. Don’t worry… karma has its ways. Stay strong and shine on!”
Alizeh Shah, known for her bold attitude and striking screen presence, has voiced concerns about delays in payments to artists.

“I’ll only work where I feel respected,” she stated.
