But the Janaan actor has had enough and has shut down haters in one epic post!
Armeena took to Instagram to address the issue and posted a picture of screenshots of abusive comments.

"I am trying to understand the mentality of the Pakistani public. Above is the collage of the comments that I have received over the last few days," she wrote.

"I want to ask, (1) Why is it that the Pakistani female actresses are subjected to this poison? Secondly, I also note that a lot of these are by females. Why is that? Why is it that Pakistani females wish to attack Pakistani actresses in such a vicious manner. What have we done to you except entertain and create an industry that will benefit the economy, culture and arts of Pakistan. How is that a crime?" she continued.
"Please help me understand how can this internet "terrorism" be tackled? Guess what, I too have BAD days. I am a person with real feelings. I work hard. There is a big part of my life that involves running a business, being a daughter, a sister, an aunt as well as helping those who are less fortunate," she went on to write.
"Can you imagine, when you are having a particularly down day and you get to read this. I understand that I signed up for criticism when I became an actress but nowhere did I sign up for abuse. You are welcome to critique our work in a polite manner but I won't allow you to question my religion, my morals OR my freedom to choose," she added.

"Now, On behalf of all my fellow actresses, though we don't expect praises 100% of the time and welcome CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM, we don't deserve such disrespect or bullying. I've seen the same girls and boys go to other international celebs and kiss their backsides as if they are from another planet. Why the hypocrisy?" said Armeena.
"Finally, I am not focusing only on the negative. I am fighting for what's right. I urge you to think before you hit that "send" button," she concluded.
Kudos to the star for speaking out against the hate many actors receive unnecessarily!
