Senior anchor person of ARY News Iqrarul Hasan paid the price to lock horns with Veena Malik after Bol News anchor person Jameel Farooqui.
After Jameel Farooqui interviewed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan, Iqarul Hasan mocked the former prime minister’s choice of anchors for interviews and used the name of Veena Malik. However, Malik lost her cool over his satirical comment.
Iqrarul Hasan shared a photo of Jameel Farooqui’s meeting with Imran Khan and wrote that it is better to surrender when the matter has reached this point.

After this tweet, both anchors engaged in a verbal fight on social media and later Farooqui blocked Hassan on Twitter.
Iqrarul Hasan wrote in a tweet that “I do social programs and not politics, that’s why I have not met any political leader in my career. I was also asked to meet Khan Sahib (for which there are witnesses and proofs), but it is not my job to meet him, so I apologized. I just pray Khan sir doesn’t choose Veena Malik for the next interview”.
میں سیاسی نہیں سماجی پروگرام کرتا ہوں، اسی لئے اپنے کیرئیر میں کسی سیاسی لیڈر سے نہیں ملا۔ خان صاحب سے ملاقات کروانے کا بھی کہا گیا (جس کے گواہ اور ثبوت موجود ہیں) لیکن اُن سے ملنا میرا کام ہی نہیں سو معذرت کر لی۔ بس دعا ہے خان صاحب اگلے انٹرویو کے لئے ویناملک کا انتخاب نہ کر لیں

In response to Hassan’s tweet, Veena Malik brought his wives into the middle using inappropriate language.

A user ridiculed Iqarul Hassan and questioned whether he is feeling good after being insulted by Malik.
In response, Iqarul Hasan wrote, “This disrespect is not mine but Khan Sahib. If someone’s sister, daughter or wife goes to interview Khan Sahib, then according to Veena, Khan Sahib’s character is so suspicious that a woman going there is an insult and it is surprising that Insafians are praising this tweet.”
کروا لی عزت ؟ مل گیا سکوں؟ @iqrarulhassan
