Renowned Pakistani actress and host Nadia Khan has stated that playwright Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar once wrote exceptional dramas, but in her view, his recent work has become difficult to tolerate.

The actress recently appeared as a guest on Geo Entertainment’s Ramadan special program “Ramzan Mein Hansna Mana Hai,” where she openly shared her thoughts on various topics. With 2.6 million followers on Instagram and more than one million subscribers on YouTube, Nadia Khan remains an influential voice in Pakistan’s entertainment industry.

During a lighthearted segment of the show, she was asked to give free advice to different well-known personalities. The host showed her pictures of several public figures, including Saba Qamar, Sahir Lodhi, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, and Shehbaz Sharif, and she offered humorous and thoughtful suggestions for each of them.

However, when Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s picture appeared on screen, Nadia Khan gave a more direct and serious response. She acknowledged that he used to be a brilliant writer in the past but advised him to portray women in a more positive manner in his future projects.

According to Nadia, the repeated negative depiction of female characters in dramas can become overwhelming, especially for reviewers like herself who watch episodes multiple times for analysis. Hearing harsh or controversial dialogues repeatedly, she explained, makes the experience unbearable.

She concluded by respectfully urging the writer to present women in a more balanced and constructive light, emphasizing that positive representation can make a significant difference in how audiences connect with drama narratives.
