The YouTuber made the remarks during a podcast hosted by actor Ahmed Ali Butt. The discussion covered several subjects, including Rajab’s upcoming film, his anger issues and fatherhood.

During the podcast, Ahmed also asked Rajab to name the first food item that came to mind when he heard the names of various public figures. When actor Durefishan Saleem was mentioned, Rajab responded with “ras malai”, referring to her as “gol matol”, a remark that drew attention for its body-shaming undertone.
