KARACHI: Celebrated Pakistani actor and host Fahad Mustafa is facing backlash after a video clip of him scolding a staff member surfaced online and quickly went viral. What seemed like a behind-the-scenes moment has now turned into a hot topic of debate across social media platforms.
The video, reportedly taken during the shoot of a commercial or reality show, shows Fahad displaying what many netizens are calling “harsh” and “demeaning” behavior towards an employee over a minor mistake. The tone and attitude seen in the footage have raised serious concerns about professionalism and power dynamics in celebrity culture.
Social media users did not hold back. Many questioned whether fame comes at the cost of humility. Others criticized the use of authority in a way that could potentially humiliate someone in front of others. Some users even expressed disappointment, saying they had expected better from a public figure of his stature.
As of now, Fahad Mustafa has not responded to the controversy. His silence, however, is adding fuel to the fire, with fans and critics alike waiting to see whether he will issue a statement or let the storm pass.
