Nida Yasir is a famous Pakistani celebrity, widely known as the “Morning Show Queen” of recent times. She has built a strong Instagram following of 2.4 million. Nida has cultivated a loyal fan base through her morning show, which she has been hosting for around 19 years. She often makes headlines for controversial statements and blunders, which she addresses from time to time.
Recently, Nida Yasir appeared as a guest on Maliha Rehman’s YouTube show, where she spoke about how she handles trolls, her Formula 1 blunder, Fiza Ali, and other viral statements.
Talking about how she handles trolls, Nida Yasir said, “Initially, the trolling used to bother me. I used to ask ARY Digital’s team not to post my pictures on their social media because of the negative comments. I didn’t want my in-laws to see the negative remarks people used to write under the morning show posts. But then it stopped bothering me because my in-laws became my strength. Now my sister-in-law and my husband fight for me. I was conscious because of them, but now I have a strong support system. Yasir fights for me.”
Speaking about the Formula 1 blunder, Nida Yasir said, “My children were the first who made fun of me, saying, ‘Mama, what blunder have you done?’ I told them it was a seven-year-old clip. It’s true that I didn’t know about Formula 1. We had invited the team of Bulbulay to our set, who were upset with us because we had also invited some university students. I was already under pressure because we had to wrap up quickly. That blunder happened in haste, and our team didn’t get time to do proper research. But I admit it was my mistake, and my husband supported me at that time.”
Talking about Fiza Ali, she said, “I have no idea about Fiza Ali. I didn’t say anything to her. I didn’t even see her video. She was like a friend to me. Yasir came in between us, but I didn’t know. He made the video in the car on his own. But I think a reply should not be given. I don’t want to escalate the issue. I don’t want to go viral. I have been coming on TV for 19 years.”
She further added, “Initially, I used to reply to trolls on my social media, but then I realized they were getting more attention. I thought I was making them famous. We also learn through our mistakes, so now I don’t reply to any negative remarks.”
