Recently, Sanam Saeed appeared in Star & Style season 5, hosted by Asim Yar Tiwana. In the show, Sanam Saeed opened up about trolling.
Replying to the host’s question, “Did you ever face trolling because people are so mean?” Sanam Saeed said that she has thankfully faced very little trolling on social media throughout her career. She added that even when people did comment, the most they could say was “Khoji/Koji.” Asim Yar Tiwana explained that “Khoji” means detective, while “Koji” is used to refer to someone who is not traditionally considered beautiful. Responding to this, Sanam Saeed said, “Okay, so the worst they called me was ‘Koji,’ but then they are not really trolling me—they are commenting on the Creator, because Allah made me the way I am.”
Asim Yar Tiwana further added that in Pakistan, fair complexion and certain features are often considered the standard of beauty, whereas globally wheatish complexion is widely appreciated. Sanam Saeed then mentioned, “I have a classic Pakistani face. A lot of people I meet give me references of Pakistani girls I resemble with”
