Good Morning Pakistan’s Content Heavily Criticized Again Over ‘Spa Day’ Episode

Nida Yasir, the accomplished Pakistani host and actor, has long been a staple in the morning show scene, entertaining audiences for approximately fourteen years. Renowned for introducing diverse formats covering marriages, makeovers, education, health, and various entertainment topics, Yasir recently faced criticism over a new format introduced on her show – the ‘Spa Day’ episode. This particular episode drew attention for its live spa party, where Yasir and her friends received salon services on air while engaging in discussions about their personal preferences and experiences.

Tamkenat’s Twitter Critique

The ‘Spa Day’ episode faced strong criticism from Pakistani actress and social media influencer Tamkenat, who took to Twitter to express her disapproval. Tamkenat shared a snapshot from the show and voiced her concerns about the display of elite, privileged women receiving live pedicures on national television. She specifically called out the celebrities participating in the spa party, highlighting the incongruity of discussing personal grooming preferences in the context of morning television.

Social Media Backlash Over Spa Day Episode

Tamkenat’s critique resonated with fans and social media users who joined the chorus of disapproval; many expressed their discomfort at witnessing the spa session on national TV, describing it as inappropriate content. The criticism extended beyond the celebrities, as viewers expressed disappointment in the show’s choice to showcase salon staff on television. Social media users argued that national television should prioritize discussions on bigger issues, such as global crises, poverty, inflation, and education, rather than focusing on superficial content. Additionally, sympathy was expressed for the salon staff, with viewers emphasizing the importance of respecting the hard work of these individuals rather than parading them on national television.
