Samiya Hijab has come under the spotlight in Tamasha Season 5 after her past became a topic of discussion during a heated argument with fellow contestant Dr Zee Khan.
The confrontation reportedly started after Dr Zee Khan accused Samiya of assisting in stealing the Jail Card. During the argument, he made personal remarks about her past and said, “Tumhari badnaami ke charchay akhbaaron mein hain.” He also used words such as “badnaam” and “zaleel insan,” which sparked criticism among viewers.
The incident has led to a debate on social media over whether a contestant’s past should be brought into arguments on a reality show. Many viewers questioned whether Samiya should instead be judged on her behaviour and gameplay inside Tamasha 5, rather than controversies or allegations from her past.
Reality shows are known for heated arguments and strong disagreements, but the incident has raised questions about the limits of personal criticism. Some viewers believe that contestants can challenge each other’s strategies and actions in the game without bringing up sensitive aspects of their personal history.
The controversy has left the audience divided, with some defending Dr Zee Khan’s reaction as part of the intense environment of reality television, while others believe personal attacks should have no place in a disagreement over gameplay.
