Recently, Waseem Abbas appeared on Gup Shab, hosted by Vasay Chaudhary. In the podcast, he talked about his viral statement regarding staying at a guest house whenever he visits Karachi.
Talking about it, he said, “I didn’t mean that my daughter-in-law or son don’t respect me. My daughter-in-law does each chore by herself. Whenever I stay with them, she cooks food for me, prepares fresh rotis, and serves me hot meals. I often tell her to keep the food in the microwave because I feel that I put her through unnecessary trouble. Now I think that I should stay a guest house because I can afford it. During the weekends, I move to their house. Otherwise, we still live as a joint family. My daughter and daughter in law are in Lahore, and we are waiting for our son as well. I have four children, we live together. There is nothing like what people assumed. I don’t know how such a small thing was exaggerated and turned into a controversy in the podcasts.”
Talking further about his son, he said, “This is my picture with Ali. I wrote the caption, ‘Me and Me.’ He is my son, he is my shadow, and you will find me in him even after I die.” Watch here:
