We will not discuss one of Nadia Khan Show’s topics here which has already got tongues wagging about male models and their promoters/projectors in Pakistan.

From the time the Nadia Khan Show went on air (or resumed programming) it had not been able to make its presence felt.

Suddenly, one episode on the treatment meted out to budding fashion models in the country and everybody (besides the one with Veena Malik) started talking about it. What does that tell you? Smart marketing strategy? A deliberate attempt at whipping up controversy? Whatever. It has succeeded in making the show being widely discussed in showbiz and fashion circles.
