Nauman Ijaz’s blunt take on Pakistanis in Ramzan sparks debate

Veteran actor Nauman Ijaz, known for his unfiltered opinions, has once again sparked controversy with his latest remarks on the behaviour of Pakistanis during Ramzan. In a candid YouTube video with fellow actor Syed Jibran, he openly criticised their attitude throughout the holy month.

"Ramzan came, but not for Pakistanis," he stated in a now-viral video. He elaborated on how people fast yet struggle with patience, losing their temper over minor inconveniences.

"People fast, but they cannot tolerate anything. They shout insults, don’t stop at traffic lights, and get envious if someone crosses the street on a green signal, even when its their turn next," he added.

The seasoned actor highlighted the irony that, despite Ramzan being a time for self-improvement, Pakistanis often exhibit their worst behaviour during this month. "We aren’t exactly saints for the rest of the 11 months either, but the one month meant for self-discipline is when we completely lose control."

Syed Jibran, sitting beside him, nodded in agreement, visibly supporting Ijaz’s critique.

The casual setting of their conversation, with Nauman Ijaz resting his head on Jibran’s shoulder, only added fuel to the fire. The internet erupted with mixed reactions as some appreciated his honesty, while others questioned his state.

“Is he drunk?” one user speculated, while another commented, “Why is he talking like this? He must be drunk or something.”

However, a fan came to his defense, saying, “This is just how Nauman Ijaz speaks. He is brutally honest, and people just can’t handle it.”
