8 Celebrities who publicly slammed Nadia Khan
Nadia Khan, an actress, host, and now outspoken critic, has made headlines recently for her bold commentary on various shows and her open criticism of celebrities who stayed silent during the India-Pakistan conflict. She continues to stand by her views and makes it clear that she won’t back down.
Several celebrities have publicly called out Nadia Khan over time. Here’s a list of those who have spoken against her:
Yasir Hussain:
Nadia Khan criticized Yasir Hussain’s drama “Paradise”, which stars Iqra Aziz and Shuja Asad in the lead roles. The show failed to capture the audience’s attention, and Nadia expressed her disappointment by giving it very low scores on her show “Kya Drama Hai”. Yasir disagreed with her review and publicly called her out. Here’s what he said:
Sarwat Gilani:
Sarwat Gilani recently called out Nadia Khan during an interview. She advised Nadia to stop harshly criticizing stars like Fawad Khan and urged her not to act like a “mohallay ki aunty”. Sarwat emphasized that even while offering criticism, Nadia should use respectful language when speaking about the country’s top celebrities.
Saba Faisal:
Saba Faisal recently took to Instagram to defend Ayeza Khan after Nadia Khan’s remarks. Nadia had claimed that Ayeza is always talked about for her looks, not her acting. Saba strongly disagreed and stated that Ayeza has proven herself through her work and talent. She questioned how anyone could reduce her success to just her appearances. Here’s how Saba Faisal responded to Nadia Khan:
Hiba Bukhari & Arez Ahmed:
Hiba Bukhari and Arez Ahmed confronted Nadia Khan after she announced their pregnancy before they had the chance to do it themselves. Nadia revealed the news on her show “Kya Drama Hai” while reviewing one of Hiba’s projects. Although the couple initially stayed calm and played it cool, they later confirmed the news—by then, it was already public. They later expressed their displeasure, stating that what happened was inappropriate and that everyone should understand basic courtesy.
Javed Sheikh:
Javed Sheikh responded to Nadia Khan’s criticism of Faysal Quraishi on “Raaja Rani”. Nadia had claimed that Faysal wore excessive makeup and didn’t look good on screen. Javed, who played Faysal’s father in the show, disagreed and clarified that Faysal didn’t use makeup. He emphasized that criticizing just for the sake of it is unfair. This was his perspective:
Adnan Jilani:
Adnan Jilani shared that he met Nadia Khan at an event where she praised his performance in “Bismil”. He mimicked her while recalling the moment and mentioned that he chose a supporting role because it offered strong potential, even though some people criticized him for it. He pointed out that Nadia complimented his work to his face.
Shizza Khan:
Shizza Khan mocked Nadia Khan, saying she mostly knows her from the birthday song she used to sing on her morning show on Geo. She added that she has only seen Nadia critiquing other people’s work and not contributing anything meaningful herself.
Aftab Iqbal:
Aftab Iqbal also spoke about Nadia Khan. He said she began her hosting career with the show “Kaliyan”, which became an instant hit due to the freshness she brought to the screen. However, he added that the show later started to feel fake, but producers allowed it to continue because Nadia had launched it during a difficult period for the channel.
