Comment: After building several preps with no representation outside of North America and Europe, I am making a push to get articles from under-represented areas into DYK. This is nomination 4 in that effort.
The only problem that I can see is that the article does not specifically state that it's a posthumous debut. It can be put together, but the readers should not have to do that.

I like that one. Everything checks out for DYK. I also appreciate that you're nominating something outside of North America and Europe.

It's rather awkward to say a dead person is making her film debut.

Hence the wording in the original hook, which I still think was fine, but wasn't willing to argue about.

Original hook is approved. I'm not going to argue over the hook.

Sorry, I don't understand the problem. What do you think about:
ALT0a: ... that Pakistani model Zara Abid, one of the 97 victims of
PIA Flight 8303, makes a posthumous film debut in the biopic Chaudhry?
Well, in the lead you say it is her film debut. Second try:
Thanks. Restoring tick per SL93's review.

Some online users have also attacked her posthumously for her lifestyle choices and work. This has also been covered in international media like by
BBC,
Insider and
9news. Some have also come to her defense.

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a
reliable source if appropriate. –

Obviously I want it to be mentioned that she has received hate as well for her lifestyle, not just tribute for her death.
