Pakistani actress and morning show host Nida Yasir has issued a clarification after facing criticism for inviting senior actress Faryal Gohar and her former husband Jamal Shah to appear together on her program despite their divorce.
Nida Yasir is considered one of Pakistan’s most successful morning show hosts. She has been hosting her program for over a decade and a half and has faced several controversies during that time.
Her show, aired on a private television channel, once again came under scrutiny when viewers questioned her choice of guests.
Nida Yasir recently invited two veteran artists, Faryal Gohar and Jamal Shah, to appear together on her program. The couple had divorced in 1992, and some moments during the show appeared somewhat uncomfortable as the former spouses sat face to face.
They also spoke about memories from their time together, including romantic moments, which led to strong criticism from social media users who objected to seating them together.
Responding to the backlash, Nida Yasir explained that she wanted to demonstrate that even if a relationship ends, it can still be handled with dignity. She noted that neither individual blamed the other and that they set an example of how a cordial relationship can be maintained after divorce.
She added that this was the reason she invited them together, but many people misunderstood her intentions.
