Recently Nasir Khan Jan a social media celebrity was invited as a guest on a SAMAA TV morning show and was repeatedly insulted by the male anchor Muhammad Shueb. His attitude towards Nasir was unwelcoming, rude and downright absurd. Nasir during the heated interview kept his cool showing humble and professional behavior in return to the mockery he was receiving from both the hosts. The video of the disappointing interview became viral and angered everyone; even those that disliked Nasir sincerely disapproved of the humiliation that the anchor caused Nasir. Again, no one deserves to be disrespected no matter who the person is and that too, on live television. However, after a major uproar from the audience, Muhammad Shueb has come forward with an apology.

In the video, he addresses the audience including Nasir and his fans admitting that he couldn’t respect the guest, the questions were wrong including the behavior that was completely incorrect. He later personally apologizes to Nasir Khan Jan over call and repeatedly asks for his forgiveness. To which Nasir dismisses it as nothing and goes on to say how great Shueb is as a person saying “aap merey bhai ho”- A true gem of a person I must say. RESPECT!
Nasir Has Won People’s Hearts Through His Great Personality. However, The Same Cannot Be Said About The Anchor
No matter what kind of content Nasir produced in the past, everyone learns and grows. His humbleness, positive vibes and professional attitude in the face of utter rudeness have gathered a new fan base and a lot of respect. It’s also great to see the anchor realizing his fault and apologizing not just to Nasir but to everyone that was appalled by him. It takes great courage to accept one’s faults and making the effort to ask for forgiveness.
Was the apology for the sake of TV channel’s reputation or a sincere one? Let us know.
Absolutely, apologizing is a foot forward towards improvement.
Nasir Khan Jan’s was one of the several interviews that these two hosts conducted poorly but this could be the turning point towards betterment, we hope.
Samaa TV and Muhammad Shueb made the right call to apologize publicly on the channel’s platform. We hope they can rectify their mistake further by inviting Nasir again and giving him the due respect and acknowledgment he deserves. What are your views on his apology? Let us know in comments.
