She wrote, “Hello everyone!! I want to just take a moment to thank each of you for the constant love and kindness you have showered me with. Y’all have been a constant source of love and strength, thank you for being there to support me through everything. I request you to please take down my pictures from your accounts and ask other fan pages to do the same.’

Elaborating further, she added, ‘It’s obviously IMPOSSIBLE to get them off the internet but the least I can do is request your pages not to continue sharing them. I hope you could help and support me through this just like you’ve supported me through everything. “I’m trying to start a new chapter in my life and I could really benefit from your cooperation — (like a lot!!). Thank you for being a part of my journey.”

Zaira was noticed after she starred in Dangal, featuring Aamir Khan, which was a tremendous success at the domestic box office as well as overseas. Following this, she starred in Secret Superstar with Aamir again, and her last film was The Sky Is Pink, with Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar.
