Television host and actress Nadia Khan shared that she was a target of organized trolling, with people being paid to criticize her.
During her appearance on Hasna Mana Hai, Nadia talked about how concentrated negativity was often aimed at her Ramazan and other TV shows.
The host Tabish Hashmi asked, “The question is, I noticed during your recent Ramadan show that it often seemed like some things were being forced, with a lot of questions being asked and controversies forming around how Nadia Khan was questioning people?”

Money was indeed spent to troll that show, to create viral content against it.”
Nadia is currently leading her show Kya Drama Hai on Channel 24, where

Reposting a video of actress Meera from the 20th Lux Style Awards, in an attempt to take a dig at her, a blog had written, “Uff yaar Meera ki English!” with laughter emoticons. Sharing the same on her Instagram story, Sun Yaara star Zarnish Khan commented, “Yaar bas kardo weli awaam (Can you people cut it out already?)”
She then asserted, “I’m pretty sure all the people who make such memes or cut-out video clips are a bunch of idiots themselves, who probably can’t even speak Urdu fluently, let alone English.”
The Ishq Zah-e-Naseeb diva reminded everyone that just because most of us can pass comments in the shadows, without ever having to worry about our reputation being dragged through the mud; does not mean we’ve earned the license to publicly shame people in the limelight.
“Just because you can hide behind the anonymity of a cyber-network, doesn’t give you a right to make fun of other people,” the Ye Dil Mera actor lashed out. “Maybe she [Meera] can’t speak well in English but is that a crime? How well do you know this language? Are you ready for an open challenge? I bet you aren’t!” She concluded by asking her followers to “stop being so shallow please!”
In the video, Meera was struggling to say, “I’m very excited to be here, obviously it’s a big night today. I want to congratulate Lux Style Awards for completing 20 years, it’s an achievement, me bohat khush hun aj (I’m really happy today).”
