Controversies
Accused a Pakistani producer of harassment
In May 2020, Sehar accused Rumi, producer of the channel Pakistan Television Corporation (PTV), of offering her to sleep with him in return for a role in the television show. Sehar alleged that after she rejected to sleep with him, Rumi ousted her from the show and terminated the contract signed by her for not fulfilling his wishes. In an interview, Sehar talked about the reason behind removing her from the television show and said,
2 years back I signed a contract of soap opera with PTV producer named Rumi in PTV and the next day he removed me just because I refused his offer to sleep with him. I know how they promoted local talent during PP and PML-N tenure. Now at least they’re earning through halal means.”
Accused BCCI of match-fixing
In November 2021, during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, Sehar accused the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) of fixing the match between Afghanistan and India, held on 3 November 2021 in Abu Dabhi. India recorded its first win after losing to Pakistan and New Zealand in its first two matches.

People in your country have neither food nor medical to survive with respect. Your PM is running around the world with begging bowl and your focus is India ? Really ? It seems Pakis are born obsessed with India.
