“Promoting landa?’: Nida Yasir mocked for new year look

Web desk: Famous actress and host of Pakistan’s television industry, Nida Yasir, is once again the focus of gossip shortly after her delivery food drivers controversy.

The popular host had shared a video on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, where she celebrated entering the new year with her husband, Yasir Nawaz, and family.

Nida wore black leggings with a golden sequin mid-dress. Pairing with it, she chose to wear a short black shrug, which she tied in a knot.

Other family members were also seen in black outfits at the party.

Nida Yasir has more than 2.6 million followers on Instagram. Many netizens criticised Nida Yasir’s style, calling it old and inappropriate.

Netizens react

One user wrote that ‘it looks like they are promoting Landa’s clothes.’

Another commented that ‘money can’t buy class,’ criticising her fashion sense.

A netizen wrote that ‘some people live their whole lives but cannot learn the art of dressing dignifiedly, and Nida is one of them.’

Comments under the shared video are not available. However, this didn’t stop the netizens from taking a jab at her.

On her previous post, a netizen commented, “Daily itni achi dressing kerti hi aur AJ Tou inteha ho gai. Happy New Year py kia hua.”

Another said, “Yeh 2026 wali post mai ap ne Kia pehna, muje bohat bura lag raha logon ka mazaq banana ap ka dil karta hai sab k mou toor don magr yahan tou sare he hahahhahahaja kar rahe pata nhi fiza Ali kitna hansi ho.”

Constructive criticism aside, using abusive language or caustic fault-finding criticism can cause damage and emotional distress.

Therefore, it is advised to be mindful of the criticism one offers.

Nida Yasir food delivery riders controversy

Recently, Nida Yasir found herself surrounded by another controversy. During her show, Good Morning Pakistan, she discussed food delivery riders.

She had accused riders of lying about not having change to get extra money as tips.

“Food delivery riders never seem to have change. If you tip them out of your own will, that’s completely fine, but when they falsely claim they don’t have change, I always ask my driver to go and get it,” Nida said on the show.

She added, “When they’re made to wait and end up reaching their next deliveries late, then they understand. It has become a habit with many of them.”

After widespread backlash, Nida Yasir apologised on her morning show.

“A few days ago, during my programme, I shared my personal experience with you, an experience that was not pleasant. But my mistake was my choice of words, the way I chose to retell that experience,” she said.

She explained she should have said “some people” instead of speaking broadly. “There are so many riders; in fact, the majority of the riders are working very hard to make ends meet. I am not sitting here to hurt anybody,” she added.
