Every once in a while, Pakistan gets hit by the wrath of a ginormous scandal breaking all hell loose on social media platforms. Keyboard warriors gear up for an attack and never-ending debates heat up an already stirred controversy.
We all remember when Aamir Liaquat dropped a mega bomb on all of us by declaring his serious breakup from BOL Network which almost felt like him ending his year-long relationship with an ex.
Here’s Aamir bhai on Twitter after he claimed his dues were clearly not paid by BOL.
The journey has come to an end & not a friendly end. Now I am not part of #BOL. They owe me my dues. #KhudaHafizBOL

Continuing onwards, he defamed the Network’s name claiming that he was ‘bought’ by the channel to slander various famous personalities for the purposes of high TRP.

More drama unfolded as BOL hit back at Liaquat with their response and claimed all his allegations to be false.
Jumping on to the bandwagon was controversy king Hamza Ali Abbasi and it came as no surprise to us when he sided with BOL in the rampage.
By Allah in whose hands my life, izzat & rizq is, every word i speak on BOL is my own, i believe in every opinion i express with all my heart & soul, the channel has never given me any dictation. I would never deceive ppl by saying anything i dont believe in just for some money.

However, what some people might not be aware of is the fact that back in August, veteran actor and comedian Sajid Hasan exposed BOL with a series of allegations similar to that made my Liaquat.
Seemingly, he was made a victim too of BOL’s ‘no-reward’ policy and complained about the bully Network’s very dirty politics.
Here’s a picture for your viewing pleasure:
The screenshot while 4 months old, has resurfaced to the forefront and is making rounds all over social media strings.
These so-and-so charges made by BOL’s biggest former icons stamp a big question mark on the channel’s reputation and credibility.
The network seemed to have entered the race with its power paced talk shows, influential media moguls, and popular state-of-the-art infrastructure, but now it seems like its dream of creating a vast media empire is almost backfiring on it now that its members are gradually beginning to expose the channel following their contentious resignations.
Will BOL manage to fight all claims made against it and prove itself innocent in light of the negative publicity? Well, I guess we’ll just have to wait and find out.
