Pakistani actor and host Faysal Quraishi recently discussed the reported Rs2 million podcast fee of actress Hania Aamir during his Ramzan transmission, drawing attention from fans.
During the episode, Quraishi asked podcast host Adnan Faisal about a payment issue, stating: “You had a payment issue with someone. An artist demanded 2 million from you. Please tell us something about it.”
Faisal responded, “It is Hania Aamir’s choice if she asked for two million. We haven’t paid that much to anyone.”
Quraishi praised Hania Aamir’s talent and reach, saying, “Hania Aamir is a big star who actually deserves two million. It could have been a bigger achievement for you if she had graced your show.
The views could have gone into millions. We don’t take that much money because we are local stars. Hania Aamir has an international reach. She is a bigger star than us and there is no doubt about it.”
The conversation has sparked debates among fans regarding celebrity podcast fees in Pakistan. While some feel the fee is high, others argue that stars with international reach, like Hania Aamir, can command premium rates for digital appearances.
