Shugufta Ejaz Threatens Legal Action Over False ‘Ozempic’ Usage Claims

Senior Pakistani actress Shugufta Ejaz has issued a strong warning of legal action against news channels and social media pages that have falsely reported her using the drug ‘Ozempic’ to lose weight. The actress broke her silence on the rumors in a recent interview, vehemently denying the claims.

The speculation began after the public noticed Shugufta Ejaz’s significant weight loss. Instead of celebrating her transformation, several media outlets ran stories alleging she had used the diabetes-turned-weight-loss drug to achieve her new look.

Attributing Weight Loss to Personal Grief

In her emotional response, Shugufta Ejaz clarified that her weight loss was not a result of medication but a consequence of profound personal tragedy. She revealed that she recently went through a period of intense sorrow after losing a close family member, a event that left her and her children in deep shock.

She expressed frustration at the public’s obsession with her personal life, stating, “I don’t understand how people find the time to keep such a close watch on others’ lives and then comment on it. I don’t even have time to keep an eye on my own life.”

The actress firmly rejected all allegations of using any weight-loss drugs, calling the reports “baseless” and “devoid of facts.”

A Stern Warning to Rumor Mongers

Shugufta Ejaz directly addressed the channels that spread the misinformation, stating that she will pursue legal action against them for their false claims. While she did not name any specific outlets, her warning was clear and unambiguous.

It is important to note that ‘Ozempic’ is a prescription medication for diabetes, and using it without medical supervision can lead to severe side effects.
