Another questioned her alleged silence on Palestine and commented on a post, "Rafah is on fire, and when did she raise her voice for them???" Someone defended Malala, writing, “Leave her alone! Let her live her life. She’s not living your life.”

She added, "I thanked Nida for making it, and for making We Are Lady Parts. They’re so important and reach so many people. They aren’t just for brown people – there’s so much in them that everyone can relate to, from friendship and family dynamics to having the confidence to follow your passions. That’s why I wanted to get into the entertainment world, too, because I want young people and women to get a chance to reflect the world as they see it, and through those stories, we can all connect with each other. But, I’ve always been behind the scenes – I never expected to be in a show myself. Now, I’m finally showing my hidden talent."
