Nadia Khan popular among Pakistani girls
“Happy to you!” *barf*
The famed (notorious) television presenter Nadia Khan of PTV’s Bandhan fame, has her own very successful and wildly popular television talk show on GEO TV. Called the Nadia Khan Show, the gig has featured celebrities ranging from successful Pakistani girls to cricketers and Bollywood stars. Recently, a Pakistani cricketer denied reports of his alleged marriage to an Indian girl by appearing on the show.
Nadia Khan first appeared in the popular television serial called Bandhan, playing a distraught wife who demands a divorce from her Pakistani husband. However, the show has a happy ending. The show might have been meant as an inspiration or social lesson to married Pakistani girls who are not on the best of terms with their inlaws or husbands. Pakistani girls are often pressurised to give into inlaws demands, and thereby divorce rates are lower than in the West. However, Nadia Khan sought to demonstrate that husbands can also support their wives, thereby leading to a better life.
“Today, Nadia Khan is one of the cultural icons of Pakistan,” says Sania Azad of Sukkur. “The girls of Pakistan are defintely rallying around her. She has a very wide feminine appeal…almost feminist!”
