Pakistan’s entertainment and political circles are buzzing after senior journalist Irshad Bhatti revealed explosive details regarding the ongoing dispute between actress Momina Iqbal and Punjab Assembly member Saqib Chadhar. The controversy, which initially revolved around alleged harassment claims, has now taken another dramatic turn with allegations involving luxury gifts worth nearly Rs10 crore.
Momina Iqbal, who is reportedly set to marry on June 1, 2026, has accused Saqib Chadhar of harassment and attempts to disrupt her upcoming wedding after she allegedly rejected his marriage proposal. The actress’s legal team has already moved forward with complaints related to the matter, making the case one of the most talked-about celebrity controversies in Pakistan.
However, Saqib Chadhar has denied all allegations against him. According to his statement, he is not harassing the actress and only wants expensive gifts he allegedly gave her during their relationship to be returned. The MPA also claimed that Momina Iqbal’s fiancé threatened him, leading him to file a separate legal complaint.
During a recent discussion, Irshad Bhatti claimed that Saqib Chadhar’s lawyer, Mian Ali Ashfaq, disclosed shocking details about the gifts allegedly given to the actress. According to the claims, Chadhar gifted Momina Iqbal a Toyota Fortuner and a Honda Civic, while the Fortuner is now reportedly being used by her mother.
Bhatti further stated that the alleged gifts also included a luxury watch worth Rs84 lakh along with several other expensive items. The combined estimated value of these gifts is being reported at around Rs10 crore, which Saqib Chadhar now allegedly wants returned.
The controversy has sparked intense debate on social media, with many users divided over the matter. Some have demanded that all claims be proven in court, while others continue to question the personal and legal dimensions of the high-profile dispute.
As the legal battle escalates, the case continues to dominate headlines, drawing attention not only because of the celebrity angle but also due to the involvement of a sitting politician. Neither side has yet publicly presented documentary evidence regarding the alleged gifts.
