Famous Pakistani filmmaker Nadeem Baig has expressed grave doubts regarding the accuracy of award shows in the entertainment industry.

In a recent episode of Say It All with Iffat Omar, Baig discussed his displeasure with the way awards are given out, bringing up a surprising victory from a recent event.

Baig mentioned that veteran actor Naumaan Ijaz lost out on the Best Actor award to YouTube sensation Arsalan Naseer. “For instance, in front of Naumaan Ijaz, Arsalan Naseer, who just entered the industry through YouTube, he gets an award for Best Actor. I’m sorry, this surprises me,” Baig commented.

He further criticized the structure of such awards shows in Pakistan, saying, “Actually, such awards don’t exist in Pakistan. There is one award for fashion, and they have to include the film and TV category so that they have good attendance and good faces sitting in the front row.”

Baig also called it “very unfair” to put actors like Saba Hamid and Sajal Aly in the same category, questioning its fairness.

He went on to express doubts about the voting process, adding, “When the public is voting, it can be hacked. You can hire 500 people to vote… At the end of the day, what happens is that you receive a surprise there that leaves you stunned.”
