Recently, a model appeared on the show Mazaqraat, hosted by Vasay Chaudhry, alongside a bunch of comedians. The show which has run its course for a few years now is known for sarcasm and light humor. However, in a recent episode a comment made by one of the guest models is now going viral on social media and the public is not happy. While talking about the overseas Pakistanis the host shared her thoughts about their looks and mentioned how they tend to show off.
“People come here from abroad and they came in wearing a white cotton suit and claim they have come from abroad. They probably are doing anything there for money that could even involve washing bathrooms, but here they just claim that they have come from abroad.”
