Siddiqui compared women to houseflies to make a point when talking about his opinions on human behavior.
Not to upset anyone, but ladies are like houseflies, he said. They usually take off running when you pursue them. Nevertheless, if you stay motionless and uninterested, they will ultimately approach and encircle you.”
Nida Yasir quickly distanced herself from Siddiqui’s statement, demonstrating discomfort with the connection. She was clearly taken aback by the comparison. Yasir tried to change the subject, but Siddiqui stuck to his remarks and expressed his opinion.
Adnan Siddiqui’s comment rapidly went viral on social media, with many people criticizing and expressing displeasure in the actor for his remarks.
The comparison was denounced by some as insulting and demeaning, underscoring the need for increased tact and awareness in public discourse—particularly when discussing gender-related issues.
Known for his charisma and adaptability in the entertainment business, Adnan Siddiqui has not yet responded to the criticism that his contentious analogy provoked. On the other hand, the episode has spurred conversations on the value of appropriate communication and how language affects cultural perceptions.
