Through their stories, the book also highlights the contributions that these people have made to the world of the performing arts in Pakistan.

These myths put all the blame on 'immoral' women who are responsible for tricking 'honest' men into sinful acts. Our society has also strongly discouraged anyone from questioning these myths.
