A recent statement by Farah Iqrar, wife of renowned journalist and TV host Iqrar ul Hasan, has gone viral after she revealed that he gives her Rs. 5 lakh every month as pocket money.
The disclosure quickly spread across social media platforms, leading to a wave of public reactions ranging from surprise to humor and intense curiosity about the couple’s personal dynamics.
Iqrar ul Hasan, known for his investigative journalism and long-running show Sar-e-Aam, has often found his personal life under public scrutiny due to his marriages. He is married to Qurat-ul-Ain Iqrar, his first wife, and later married Farah Iqrar, both of whom have maintained largely respectful and cordial public relations despite the media spotlight. His married life has frequently been a topic of online discussion, and Farah’s latest revelation has only added new fuel to the conversation.
Social media users expressed shock at the substantial monthly amount, with many debating whether Farah’s statement was serious or light-hearted. Others focused on Iqrar’s financial capacity, given his successful career in journalism, hosting, and public speaking.
Some observers noted that the couple often shares moments of humor and openness with their followers, suggesting that the remark may reflect the comfortable, transparent relationship they maintain with the public. Still, the discussion also invited criticism from those who questioned the relevance of such personal disclosures.
Despite the mixed reactions, the statement has undeniably captured public attention, showcasing once again how the personal lives of public figures, especially those as prominent as Iqrar ul Hasan and his wives, remain a constant topic of curiosity in Pakistan’s social media landscape.
