“She Should Be Alive”: Adnan Siddiqui’s Eid Show Remark Sparks Outrage
News Desk
Islamabad: Pakistani actor Adnan Siddiqui, widely admired for his charisma and sense of humor, has stirred controversy following comments he made about women during an Eid special television show.
During a candid segment of the program, Siddiqui was asked about his romantic nature and what he first notices when meeting a woman. He responded by saying that he usually looks at a woman’s feet, explaining that he believes feet can reflect personal hygiene and offer insight into one’s personality.
Attempting to add humor, Siddiqui went on to quip that another important quality for him is that the woman should be “alive.”
The remarks drew a mixed response from the public. While some viewers took the comments in a light-hearted spirit, others found them inappropriate, especially considering Siddiqui’s public image as a respected actor and father figure.
Critics on social media called the joke distasteful and unnecessary, arguing that public figures should be more mindful of their words. Supporters, however, defended the actor’s candidness, noting that he is known for his unfiltered and humorous style.
This is not the first time Adnan Siddiqui’s off-the-cuff remarks have sparked debate. His latest comments have reignited discussion around the boundaries of humor, especially when expressed on public platforms.
