New Delhi: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan's ex-wife Jemima Goldsmith, along with laughing emoticons, tweeted a Lollywood film poster featuring herself, Imran and a burqa-clad woman doing 'black magic'. She, however, deleted the post later.

Jemima took to Twitter, sharing the poster, saying: "Who doesn't love a Lollywood poster? Spotted today by a friend in Lahore. Caption: 'what kind of black magic did you do?'"

The burqa-clad woman reportedly represented Imran Khan's wife Bushra Bibi. However, the post went viral and netizens seemed to have a laugh at the artwork and gave quirky responses.

A user wrote, "Jemima seems to be poking fun at herself & the decades-old association, fondness and yes absolute love and respect for IK. Knowing her sense of humour, it seems to be more of a take on the magical effect he seems to have with women falling for him. Nothing sinister."

Another wrote, "Fully agree with Zari... She loves & respects IK to date! Nothing disrespectful in her tweet in which she shared that funny poster from Lahore. We shouldn't be that naive to show intolerance towards little fun at the time... Jemima is pure gold @Jemima_Khan."

A post read, "Some bonds go beyond the marriage/divorce dichotomy. Human beings are very layered and complex creatures."

"People don't seem to get British humour," another user remarked.

Jemima and Imran got married in 1995 and parted ways in 2004.
