The promo for Veena’s Ramadan exceptional made rounds on each social networking website, prompting hundreds of blog entries and sealing the contract for skyrocketing ratings for Hero TV before still being launched.
The criticism it received, however, outweighed admiration by a mile, with various community pages on Facebook, derisive internet meme’s and also thousands of posts as well as comments devoted to grounding the program before it aired.
PEMRA then took up the issue with Hero TV, after receiving over 3,000 criticisms on its official website.
Naysayer on the website criticizes saying, “Hero TV intends to air a show in Ramadan hosting Veena Malik. The show and channel might have a positive apparition about this, but I powerfully feel that this program will really be another act of making fun of Islam. Any agenda that has an obvious vision to promote channel rankings by making fun of Islam or any other religion should not be allowed to go on air, particularly in Islamic Republic of Pakistan.”
Talking to Pakistan now, PEMRA spokesman Fakhruddin Mughal supposed that Hero TV’s ‘Astaghfaar’ went against the authority’s code of conduct as well as hurt public feeling and aspirations.
He said that Hero TV was informed about the huge criticism invoked on community media as well as by religious furthermore social groups, and it resolute to take the show down without more ado.
The promos and trailers of the show, where Veena appear with a teary face, sparked an outrage across community media platforms. Various blog posts alleged that this was only a marketing stunt and Hero TV had never future to air the show.
But, the PEMRA spokesman denied this statement, revealing that Veena had certainly been employed for the program.
Seem like the queen of scandal, Veena, will not be repentant her sins on cable TV after all. While the online roster for criticism on the PEMRA website had certainly gained sufficient objections to take action, many her fans on Twitter vociferously tweeted against this move, asking for Aamir Liaquat moreover Maya Khan’s own shows to be taken off air as well.
