Since starting her career as a morning show host in 2011, Nida Yasir has had many celebrities grace her couch. good morning pakistan. However, one actor who was conspicuous by his absence during Nida's pointed questioning was none other than the famous heartthrob Fawad Khan.
During the candid Eid, Nida's mood changed when she started fielding questions from fellow hosts Nadia Khan and Aijaz Aslam. Asking a question that many people wanted to know the answer to, Aijaz said, “So why didn't Fawad Khan come to your show?”
“He is too expensive.” Nida said bluntly, without missing a beat. “We can’t afford him!”
Aijaz smiled wryly and asked if that was the only reason. “of course!” Nida exclaimed. She detailed how, unlike Fawad, her dear friend and actress Mahira Khan has appeared on Good Morning Pakistan several times and has always been a good sport by participating in many activities on the show.
“Maybe it was because she wanted to promote her film,” said a cynical Aijaz.
But Nida was quick to jump to Mahira's defence. “no.” She said firmly. “If you watch a clip from the show you can see [from when Mahira appeared]. I have a great friendship with Mahira and I love her.”
Adding salt to Nida's wounds, Nadia said that Fawad had appeared on her show “two or three times” at this point. However, Nida was quick to jokingly remind her colleague that back then Fawad was not the superstar he is today.
“He didn’t have as much money as he did when he did it!” Nida shouted. “He wasn’t in any movies back then!”
With Fawad's healthy bank balance and thriving film and TV career, the actor continues to elude Nida's invitations to her shows.
