Pakistani actor Faisal Qureshi has openly supported actress Hania Aamir’s growing popularity and commercial value, saying there is nothing wrong with the actress demanding a higher fee for brand collaborations. During a recent podcast appearance, Faisal was asked about Hania’s increasing influence in Pakistan’s entertainment industry and her growing presence in major advertising campaigns. In response, the veteran actor praised the actress and acknowledged that she has established herself as one of the country’s most recognisable stars. Faisal pointed out that Hania’s face can currently be seen across the country on billboards, signboards and various advertising campaigns. According to him, the fact that major companies continue to choose Hania to represent their products is a clear indication of her strong market position and popularity. Calling her a star, Faisal said that Hania has reached a stage in her career where leading brands are interested in associating their names with her. He suggested that her widespread visibility is not simply the result of her television and film projects but also reflects the strong connection she has built with audiences. The actor further explained that Hania is aware of her current position in the entertainment industry. With her popularity continuing to rise, brands are also aware of her market value and the attention she can bring to their campaigns. Faisal also defended Hania against criticism over reports that she charges a higher fee for brand endorsements. He argued that an artist’s fee naturally increases when their demand and commercial appeal grow. According to Faisal, there is no reason for an artist to feel guilty about asking for a higher payment when their popularity has increased significantly. He suggested that fees are often determined by an artist’s demand in the market, their ability to attract audiences and the value they bring to a commercial campaign. His comments come at a time when Hania Aamir has become one of the most prominent young faces in Pakistan’s entertainment and advertising industries. The actress has developed a substantial fan following through her television projects and social media presence, while her public image has also made her a sought-after choice for major brands. Faisal’s remarks highlight the changing dynamics of Pakistan’s entertainment industry, where an actor’s commercial value is increasingly influenced by their visibility, digital following and overall popularity. By supporting Hania’s decision to charge according to her market value, Faisal emphasised that successful artists should be able to benefit from the demand they have created. His comments also suggest that higher fees can be viewed as a natural outcome of an artist reaching a stronger position within the industry rather than as a matter of controversy.

Tamasha has become one of Pakistan’s most popular reality television shows since its launch on ARY Digital in 2022. Based on the format of Big Brother, the show brings celebrities and public figures together under one roof, where they compete in a variety of tasks while dealing with interpersonal conflicts, alliances and eliminations. After four successful seasons between 2022 and 2025, the fifth season is currently attracting considerable attention from viewers. The ongoing season has introduced several contestants who have quickly gained popularity among fans. Babrik Shah, Zee Khan, Laila, Samia Hijab and Esra are among the contestants who have emerged as prominent players this year. Tamasha Season 4, which aired last year, also received widespread attention. The season featured contestants including Saif Ali Khan, Muslim, Ommy, Zainab Raja, Kanwal Farooq and Yaseen. Zainab Raja, in particular, became known for her strong presence and performance during the competition. Following her appearance on the show, Zainab has remained active on social media, regularly sharing videos, opinions and updates with her followers. In a series of recent Instagram stories, she made several serious allegations concerning the reality show and claimed that certain aspects of the competition were not as they appeared on television. Zainab alleged that Tamasha was scripted and claimed that winners could be decided before the conclusion of a season. She also accused the show of providing preferential treatment to certain contestants. Among her most notable claims, Zainab alleged that one of the popular male contestants had been married and had two children while presenting himself as unmarried during his participation in the show. She claimed that contestants inside the house were aware of his marital status and that he eventually became one of the Top 5 contestants. However, she did not publicly name the contestant in her statements. Zainab also claimed that her comments about the show being scripted were edited from the broadcast. According to her, she directly told host Adnan Siddiqui, “Scripted hai aapka show,” but alleged that viewers were shown only her facial expressions while her actual response was removed from the final episode. She further claimed that contestants were not permitted to reveal certain details about what happened behind the scenes. The former contestant also raised questions about promotional activities surrounding the show. She claimed that public relations campaigns were carried out for contestants who eventually won or performed strongly in different seasons. Zainab suggested that software operators could be consulted to determine which contestants received promotional support and argued that several participants had benefited from such campaigns. Another issue she highlighted concerned the treatment of male contestants inside the house. Zainab alleged that male participants were permitted to leave the house to offer Friday prayers and were also given opportunities to communicate with their families through phone calls. She described what she considered differences in privileges as unfair treatment. Zainab’s allegations have generated discussion among fans of the reality show. However, the claims remain allegations made by the former contestant, and there has been no independent confirmation of the specific accusations mentioned in her social media posts. Tamasha continues to attract strong public interest, with viewers closely following the contestants, their relationships and the developments taking place inside the house.
