    Mathira calls out Nadir Ali’s misogynistic behavior on his podcast

    In a recent episode of The Fahad Ansari Show, TV host Mathira spoke out against Nadir Ali, a podcast host known for his controversial behavior. Nadir is infamous for his direct and sometimes inappropriate questions, which have led to discomfort among guests on his show.

    Reflecting on the episode, Fahad, the host of the show, said that Mathira seemed uncomfortable. She didn’t hesitate to share her thoughts, saying, “I expected his show to be respectful like others I’ve been on. I used to have respect for him, but the way he behaved…”

    She criticized Nadir further, alleging, “I feel he targets women on his show. Every woman who goes on feels cornered. That’s not okay.” According to Mathira, there’s a line between being funny and being disrespectful. “You can’t ask rude questions that aren’t even funny.”

    Despite Nadir’s popularity, criticism against him is growing. Mathira’s strong stance echoes the views of many who believe that respect should be a priority, especially in the entertainment industry.

  • Nadia Khan is not OK with veteran actor Behroze Sabwari’s misogynistic comments, whether they are recent or old.

    Nadia Khan is not OK with veteran actor Behroze Sabwari’s misogynistic comments, whether they are recent or old.

    In her show, she said, “I think it is okay if he only talks about himself, I have a problem when he pass statements on women. In a recent podcast, he talked about his ex-daughter-in-law. Sometimes, he talks against other women, he also criticizes women for their clothing, and he keeps an eye on how women dress up. Sometimes, he talks against me, it has become a pattern now. Hina Bayat made a brilliant video on his recent viral statement. I really liked her stance. I think it is true that he is enjoying being discussed on various platforms after such statements.”

     Earlier, Behroze Sabzwari was invited as a guest on Nadir Ali’s podcast, where he made several controversial remarks about women. He said, “In Pakistan, a lot of people have motorbikes. Obviously, everyone can’t afford cars. There is inflation and people are barely surviving, but I have noticed one thing: the dressing of women is not appropriate while sitting on bikes. Some women wear weird clothes which cannot be called appropriate. They are not good at all. The clothes are not only see-through but usually are very tight. It shows home training. Women should be fully covered while sitting on the motorbike. This should be strictly kept in mind. Men should also control their eyes, and women should be dressed in an appropriate manner.”

    Maryam Nafees will not work with Khalil Ur- Rehman Qamar

    Actress Maryam Nafees recently took the decision of not working with controversial script writer Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar. “I won’t work on any TV drama written by Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar,” she said, explaining her choice on a TV show. “It’s because of different beliefs, not because Qamar isn’t talented. I wants to work on projects that match my values.”

    She’s worried about how Qamar shows women in his dramas, even though she respects his skills. Nafees wants to support women’s rights and feels she can’t do that by working with him.

    Qamar has often picked fights with actresses and female analysts over his misogynistic comments. Actress and former supermodel Iffat Umar recently refused to engage with him, criticizing Qamar for his narrow-mindedness and bitterness. This confrontation reflects mounting industry frustration with Qamar’s controversial remarks and treatment of women. In a TV appearance, Qamar dismissed Miss Pakistan 2022 winner Sana Hayat’s experiences, sparking further debate about gender equality and respect in the entertainment industry. Women are hesitant to work with him because they believe his beliefs and comments harm women’s progress and representation in the industry.
