| Controversies | In 2017, Sahir lost his temper over a female debater who was invited on his talk show to speak about women rights; when she mentioned Quaid-e-Azam, he interrupted her harshly and told her to shut up, leading to widespread criticism on social media. Also in 2017, he faced backlash for featuring young girls dancing to Bollywood songs on his show 'Aap Ka Sahir,' prompting the Lahore High Court to order PEMRA to take action. He was diagnosed with various psychological disorders following outbursts on a Pakistani TV show. In August 2026, Karachi police registered an FIR against him and an associate over an alleged Rs40 million investment fraud and bounced cheques, which he has not been convicted of. | ||||
