Azba is a new viral sensation hosted by Ayesha Jahanzeb, who rose to fame through Samaa TV’s new talk show Mukalma, which is popular for its controversial show aired on A Plus. Azba made headlines across electronic media, social media and digital media after calling out motivational speaker Sahil Adeem for his remarks about women. Sahil Adeem in his speech said that most women in Pakistan are illiterate (Jhil). This has sparked controversy among social media users. Some sided with the discussion group, while others supported Azba, which included some feminists and social activists, calling for Sahil Adeem to be condemned for using the word Jahil for women.
Recently, Azba shared a video with the panel of Samaa TV where he informed all the supporters of his argument. She said, “In Pakistan, our population is 55% women and motivational speaker Sahil Adeem used the word Jahiliah for 95% of Pakistan’s population, how can we bear such a word? First I just want to apologize to her, now all Pakistani women want one thing and we cannot grow in Pakistan without the support of men.Here is the video link:
