However, some who were taken digs at were not informed about it including actress Farida Jalal. According to Mid-day, the veteran actress was not amused by the roast. “I saw a bit of it and then didn’t watch it further. Naturally people do not like it because it’s not our culture. What do I say about those kids? All I can say is god bless them. I don’t know if they poked fun at me because I didn’t watch the entire show or was there something else. No one told me either,” said the actress.
