Javeria Saud is a popular Pakistani host and actress who has unfortunately been making headlines for her insensitive remarks about the public and fellow celebrities. Throughout Ramzan, she went viral for her mockery, jokes, laughter, and scripted calls.
On Eid, she came up with her signature hosting style. She was sitting with Umer Aalam, Yasir Hussain, Mareeha Safdar, and others, and age-shamed Yumna Zaidi in a segment where guests were guessing actors through childhood pictures.
While asking them to guess Yumna, Javeria Saud said that she is an actor who has been working since the stone age but became a star only recently, after which the actors said she must be referring to Yumna Zaidi. Here is what Javeria Saud said:
Famous television and film actress Maya Ali has now come forward to defend Yumna Zaidi and has slammed Javeria Saud for her insensitive remarks against Yumna Zaidi. Taking to her official Instagram account, Maya Ali wrote, “When will we start respecting our own talent, our actors, our stars? People dedicate their lives to their craft day and night, and the saddest part is, it’s not outsiders pulling them down. It’s often voices from within our own industry doing it publicly on big platforms. ALLAH has written everyone’s destiny and their time. Na waqt se pehle, na waqt ke baad. Let’s stop pulling each other down. Let’s stand for one another! Aaj koi aur hai, kal aap bhi ho sakte hain. And a humble request to the channels, please verify before airing anything about anyone. Use your platform responsibly.” Read here:
