While speaking to The Express Tribune about her photo, which went viral just a few hours after its release, she exclaimed that the “birthday boy” should have a great time. “We remember Shahrukh Khan’s birthday, we remember Katrina Kaif’s birthday, but we never remember the birthday of the man who runs this country,” said Mathira.
Expressing her fondness for President Zardari, she said “the man has a personality.” “I really like that guy (President Zardari), I think he’s great. I wanted to do something special for him [on his birthday] and so I did.”
“The best thing about him is that he has a ‘personality’,” continued Mathira. “Believe it or not, he can turn heads around when he enters the room.”
“People and the media don’t see his positive side. We make jokes about him, we belittle him. We forget that he has the country’s responsibility on his shoulders.”
Mathira hopes that Zardari is elected as president for a second term, too. “We should not place blame on him for everything that goes wrong in the country. No one knows what he must be going through.”

@Gingo:
Have some brain, friend... Go and check out their epica and then point us out.
This women likes to seek attention. She does whatever that places her in the spotlight even if she has to lose her respect.
Mathira is fabulous............but still a long way away from Marilyn Monroe and Zardari is no Jack Kennedy.
Why do Pakistanis hate the Gorgeous and ambitious women?
@ Abbas; That's exactly how a state based on Islamic ideolgy would look like, since Islam advocates for benevolent dictator :)
Happy Birthday Mr. President
There is a typo there:
we never remember the birthday of the man who ruins this country
happy birthday to you Mr. president
my suggestion to her- do not ask him his birthday wish. You will repent it.
Did she just say "Birthday Boy"???? either she is blind or she has never seen a boy ... :p
Pakistanis always taking out their frustrations on a woman. First it was Veena, now its Mathira
that's touching. i appreciate your valor in support of truth. good going.
I appreciate the confidence in Zardari to wear traditional Salwar Kameez with Sindhi cap even on some of his international offical tours
Dear Mathira, My birthday is on 28th of july.. can you do the same, or more than that, for me
“We remember Shahrukh Khan’s birthday, we remember Katrina Kaif’s birthday, but we never remember the birthday of the man who runs this country,” said Mathira.
will friends this is so much true we admire the Indians but we don't give the due respect to our president, regardless of what attitude and behavior he has but still he has been elected by our electives.
Shabaaaaaaash Mathira Khan :P
Aaaaand, Who gives a crap?
Its ET moral responsibility to cover such "news" ..
The Man has personality (read: looted money).
Hellooooo Lady you got the attention now GO REST
Awww Cute ^_^ :-@
Dear Mathira ,
Considering the "livelihood" of our president , there are many special things you can do for him.
Yeha people turn their heads when he enters because they have never seen such a special breed of shameless, useless dog before in their lives.
This country should've never been called Islamic republic of Pakistan. A country where dacoits are head of the state, hypocrits earn millions making an absolute fool of masses running so called ramzan shows, a country where one would see such immoral women up on billboards claiming a murderer has a great personality and a nation where everyone is a zardari.
Well, if you really wanted to something "special" for that guy then perhaps you should have asked what he would like to do "special" on his birthday, don't you think that would really have made him happy and his birthday even happier.
