Singer Jawad Ahmad has responded strongly to actress and television host Fiza Ali after she mocked him on a TV show by calling him a “dhobi,” referring to his habit of calling people out during political discussions.

Fiza Ali criticized several celebrities and anchors for having political affiliations and made light-hearted remarks about them. While speaking about Jawad Ahmad, she said, "If Javed Ahmad wasn’t a singer, he would have been a dhobi because he’s always washing (bashing) others."

Jawad Ahmad replied in his typical straightforward style, saying, "When she met me, she said she was my biggest fan and used to dance to my songs."

He continued, "She worked in the drama Mehndi, which became famous because of my song. She was one of the four lead actresses in that serial and became a star because of my track. She can never repay that favor, so this is just an ignorant statement from her."

Fiza’s comment has sparked a debate on social media. Some people are praising her bold attitude, while others are showing support for Jawad Ahmad and his work in music, politics, and social change.
