Acclaimed writer Saima Akram Chaudhary has vehemently responded to Nadia Khan’s harsh critique of Sajal Aly, calling Khan a ‘pathetic actress’ and suggesting she needs psychiatric help. The industry is buzzing with reactions.
A heated exchange has erupted in the Pakistani entertainment industry, with acclaimed writer Saima Akram Chaudhary publicly criticizing host and actress Nadia Khan. The controversy began when Khan, known for her role as a critic on the show Kya Drama Hai, recently targeted Sajal Aly’s performance in the drama Zanjeerain, particularly mocking a scene where Aly’s character was running for her life. This critique did not sit well with Chaudhary, who decided to respond forcefully to Khan’s comments.

Nadia Khan, a veteran presence in Pakistani media, has transitioned from a celebrated morning show host and actress to a drama critic, often offering strong opinions on various productions. Her career spans decades, making her a recognizable face across the nation. However, her recent critical remarks have drawn the ire of industry peers. Saima Akram Chaudhary, a prolific screenwriter, has penned numerous hit dramas, including Suno Chanda and Chupke Chupke, establishing herself as a formidable voice in Pakistani television. She previously collaborated with Khan on the drama Kaisi Aurat Hoon Main.

Chaudhary did not mince words in her rebuttal, asserting that Khan’s behavior warranted psychiatric evaluation. She labelled Khan a ‘pathetic actress’ who, according to Chaudhary, had previously ‘destroyed a great script’ of hers with a subpar performance. Chaudhary’s strong reaction highlights the growing tensions between artists and critics within the industry, especially when criticism is perceived as overly harsh or personal. Her comments resonated with many online, sparking a flurry of reactions.


The internet has largely sided with Chaudhary, with many social media users echoing her sentiments. Comments poured in, with one person stating, “Nadia is such a worst actress herself and she criticizes others.” Another user suggested, “She does this all for ratings.” The consensus among many fans appears to be that Khan’s criticism was unwarranted and that Chaudhary’s response was justified. This incident raises questions about the line between constructive criticism and personal attacks in public discourse. What are your thoughts on this celebrity clash?
