“A day earlier, while returning, I was gripped with fear and felt helpless,” she wrote.
The actress shared that every moment of her journey was filled with anxiety. “I kept thinking I might be caught in a flood or landslide. At that moment, I also thought of those who had already been affected,” she added.
Mahira reflected on the plight of flood victims, writing: “I realized how helpless people must feel in such disasters—watching their homes, loved ones, and lives swept away before their eyes.”
Expressing sorrow over the widespread destruction caused by heavy rains and flooding, she prayed for mercy and protection for the country. However, she did not disclose further details about her own encounter.
