Renowned actress Bushra Ansari has raised concerns over the growing trend of Ramazan transmissions on various news channels, claiming that they have shifted people's focus away from worship.

The veteran star recently shared a vlog on her YouTube channel, where she spoke about the impact of the transmissions while preparing for Iftar.

"Every other channel is running the same Ramadan transmissions. They used to happen before as well, but back then, people didn’t watch them as much. Those were better times," the veteran comedian said.

Pointing out that now people watch them with great interest, Bushra Ansari says, "Even I sometimes sit in these transmissions, and they entertain people. They probably feel good, and it helps pass the fast comfortably."

However, she then pointed out the downside of the growing trend, "I believe that when we didn’t have these transmissions, we used to worship more. With no other distractions, we would recite the Quran and engage in Tasbeeh."

She further added, "Back then, fasting didn’t feel like mere hunger. But now, without worship, without reciting the Quran or Tasbeeh, and just by watching Ramadan transmissions, fasting is no longer about true devotion—it's just about starving."

Her statements have sparked a debate on social media, with many discussing whether Ramadan transmissions bring people closer to faith or simply serve as entertainment.
