Vaneeza Ahmed reacts to backlash on alleged insult of Ayeza Khan
Former supermodel and actor Vaneeza Ahmed recently grabbed headlines for allegedly slamming leading heroine Ayeza Khan for her supposed lack of contribution to society despite having 12 million followers on Instagram.
Vaneeza appeared on Naumaan Ijaz’s chat show, G Sarkar, where she was asked about her social media consumption. The Ehd-e-Wafa diva that she barely uses Instagram but it is pointless exercise to take selfies all the time.
The Jinnah star supposedly questioned Khan’s popularity based on how she only posts fancy pictures of herself and remarked: “So what if you have 12 million followers?”
“What are you contributing (to society)?” she added.
On that note, she told the host that she had come across the account of a Pakistani actress who has the most followers in Pakistan. Vaneeza couldn’t recall Ayeza’s name until Nauman Ijaz mentioned it and the former model expressed disappointment with why the Chupke Chupke star has 12 million followers when all she does is post pictures of herself and her extravagant lifestyle.
Vaneeza said that she was curious that why did she have such a huge following thus she went to her page and all there was were her own pictures. Vaneeza is also against the culture of posting pictures of first class flights and lavish vacations by people in general. She cannot do things for social media and her niece usually handles her account.
However the senior supermodel has now clarified her statement in an Instagram story. Ahmed took it upon herself to clarify her statement against excessive social media usage, especially by celebrities and influencers. She also specified that her remarks weren’t for Ayeza, instead they were directed to a TikTok star.
