People Are Laughing at Danish Taimoor’s Scene in Drama Sher — But It Raises a Serious Question

In the latest episode of the drama Sher, actor Danish Taimoor plays a character named Sher Zaman. In Episode 14, Sher Zaman is shown in a mental hospital as his mental health gets worse.

However, what grabbed the attention of viewers was not just the scene — it was the writing on the wall behind him. Some words written were “shut up I’m sad” and “coronavirus”, which made people laugh on social media. Many fans zoomed into the scene and made funny comments about the background.

While the scene became a joke online, it also started an important discussion. People are now asking if this is the right way to show mental health in dramas.

The post also suggests that writers and directors should take mental health seriously and show it with respect and care. Making fun of such serious issues can send the wrong message.
