Shoaib Akhtar made fun of Sonya Hussyn for giving the wrong answer

In February 2023, the 48-year-old former cricketer even launched his own talk show, The Shoaib Akhtar Show, on the OTT platform Urduflix. This exciting show brings together Pakistani cricketers, talented actors and actresses in an interesting mix of sports and showbiz. The second season of the show, The Shoaib Akhtar Show 2.0, premiered on October 7, 2023. And its third episode, featuring popular Pakistani actress, Sonya Hussyn and television show host and anchor, Waseem Badami, is getting significant attention from the public. 

Shoaib Akhtar questioned his guests, Waseem and Sonya, about which Pakistani scientist was the recipient of the prestigious Nobel Prize, and gave the following options: Abdul Sattar Edhi, Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan and Malala Yousafzai. To which Sonya promptly answers, ‘Malala Yousafzai’. Her reply led to the other two, Shoaib and Waseem, subtly making fun of her. Shoaib Akhtar jokingly said:

“Zabardast, well done, well done, bohot acha Sonya, Kya Jawab diya aapne.”

Then the host, Shoaib Akhtar, asked his other guest, Waseem, the same question, to which he replied, ‘A Q Khan’. The 48-year-old former cricketer starts making fun of the actress by comparing her to Nida Yasir, who previously had appeared on Shoaib’s show and had answered a question incorrectly.
