According to ANI, protests against Zaira have started off in the valley where masked men can be seen burning her pictures.

For the uninitiated, Zaira had a meeting with Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti lately and after pictures of it had gone viral, some people trolled her.

What followed was an apology from the talented actress, who hails from Kashmir. She wrote a lengthy apology on Facebook and later allegedly deleted it. However, soon afterwards the entire B-Town fraternity and political bigwigs spoke in her favour.

Zaira was seen in Aamir Khan starrer 'Dangal' which was based on the life of Mahavir Singh Phogat. She played a young Geeta Phogat on-screen.
