The innate awareness of the distinction between jest and earnest conversation is universal, transcending cultural norms.”
Shaista Lodhi went on to address the perception of discord between herself and Nadia Khan. During a conversation with Hassan Chodhry, she clarified, “My intention wasn’t to cast a negative light on Nadia. Regrettably, my statement was misconstrued, and this misunderstanding led to an inaccurate portrayal of our relationship. In reality, there is no animosity between us. Healthy competition is an essential facet of any professional arena, including hosting and acting. I have had the privilege of replacing Nadia Khan on various channels, a circumstance that inadvertently fueled speculations about our supposed rivalry. One anchor even remarked that I snatch opportunities from my colleagues – a sentiment that deeply affected me.”
