Saba Qamar is a highly acclaimed Pakistani television and film actress who is known for her excellent acting performances in hit and intense dramas like Pani Jesa Pyar, Baaghi, Besharam, Cheekh, Digest Writer, Sangat, Fraud, Sar e Raah, Serial Killer, Pagal Khana, and Tumhare Husn Ke Naam. Recently, she has been receiving immense appreciation for her powerful acting in the popular dramas Case No. 9 and Pamaal.
Lately, Saba Qamar made an appearance on Green Entertainment’s podcast The Green Room, hosted by Ahmed Randhawa. In the podcast, Saba expressed her disliking for city Karachi.
During the podcast, while replying to the host’s question, “Are you ready to move to Karachi for work?”, Saba Qamar expressed her discomfort regarding the city and said, “Astaghfirullah, never — but I shouldn’t say this; you never know what the future holds for me. But yes, it’s been years since I’ve moved to Karachi. I just go there, do my work, and come back. I like Islamabad and Lahore. I wouldn’t mind moving to Karachi if someone buys me a house there, although I’ve already built one for myself.”
She further added that she prefers Islamabad or Lahore, perhaps because she loves living in houses rather than apartments. She was also heard whispering, ‘ I don’t like Karachi’ Here is the link to the video.
On another occasion during the podcast, Saba said, “Shift all the projects being shot in Karachi to Islamabad.”
Social media users are deeply upset by Saba Qamar’s degrading remarks about one of the biggest metropolitan cities in the world. One user said, “The lady literally recited Astaghfirullah for Karachi — how cheap she is!” Another wrote, “She comes to Karachi just to earn. Why does she work in Karachi’s dramas then?” A third user stated, “Pendu Punjabi people have an obsession with Karachi,” while another added, “Pendu people look good only in Punjab.” Read the comments here.
