Former Pakistani actress and host Mishi Khan has expressed her discontent over a viral video featuring Arshad Nadeem, the gold medallist of the Paris Olympics 2024.
The video, which has been circulating widely on social media, shows Nadeem dismissing a local reporter’s questions in Mian Channu.
In the brief clip, the reporter asks Nadeem how he feels after becoming a champion.
Instead of responding, Nadeem walks away, leaving the reporter to follow him with a microphone, repeatedly asking why he is unwilling to speak on such a joyous occasion.
Nadeem simply replies that he is in a hurry and then exits the scene.

As the video gained traction online, many users defended Nadeem, arguing that the media should respect individuals’ privacy and not intrude on their personal space.
However, Mishi Khan was not as forgiving. Reacting to the video, Khan took to social media to criticise Nadeem’s behaviour, suggesting that fame and success may have led to an attitude of arrogance.
“Money makes people cuckoo,” she remarked, adding sarcastically, “Sure, you were in a hurry, but you could have answered. Wow! What arrogance.”
Khan’s comments have sparked a debate online, with some agreeing with her stance, while others defend Nadeem’s actions, citing his right to privacy and the pressure he may be under as a public figure.
