In a recent private TV programme, where she serves as a co-host, Atiqa discussed the casting of Humayun Saeed and Yamna Zaidi in the drama series Gentleman.

She pointed out the stark age difference between the two actors, questioning the industry’s choice to pair them as hero and heroine despite this disparity.
