Tamasha 3 winner Babrik Shah dismisses rumors linking his wife Saima Babrik to reality star Esra Ayesha during a podcast interview.

Actor Babrik Shah recently addressed circulating social media rumors regarding an alleged family connection between his family and reality star Esra Ayesha during a candid appearance on Nabeeha Ejaz‘s popular podcast. Speculation mounted during the broadcast of Tamasha 5, where fans claimed the reality show runner-up was related to Shah’s spouse. The veteran actor firmly dismissed these rumors, offering a clear explanation of their distinct heritage to put the viral speculation to rest.

Having secured massive recognition after winning ARY Digital‘s hit reality show Tamasha 3, Babrik Shah continues to command attention across Pakistani television and cinema. His extensive career includes memorable performances in acclaimed television dramas such as Baaghi, Dastaan, and Pani Jaisa Pyar, alongside prominent roles in feature films like Koi Tujh Sa Kahan and Muhabbatan Sachyaan.

Addressing host Nabeeha Ejaz directly about where the rumors originated, Shah clarified that his family shares no blood relation with Esra Ayesha. He noted that fellow contestant Ramsha Salahuddin may have mistakenly spread the news or utilized it for public relations during the show. Explaining the cultural distinctions, Shah highlighted that his family belongs to a Syed lineage while his wife Saima Babrik is a Mohmand, whereas Ayesha belongs to the Afridi tribe—three distinct lineages among Pakhtoons.
