Warraich further praised cleaners, saying cleaning others’ waste is a noble and honorable job and should not be used as an insult.
Suhail Warraich’s Calm Clapback to Fiza Ali Goes Viral. Pakistan Veteran journalist and TV host Suhail Warraich has won hearts online with his calm and humble response to a controversial remark made by actress and host Fiza Ali.
The incident took place during a recent Eid special show hosted by Kamran Shahid, where Fiza Ali made a shocking comment about Warraich. She said that if Suhail Warraich hadn’t become a journalist, he would have ended up working as a washroom janitor in a foreign country.
Her words quickly went viral, sparking strong reactions on social media. Many people, including journalists and fans, criticized the statement as disrespectful and unnecessary, especially aimed at someone as respected as Suhail Warraich.
But instead of reacting with anger or bitterness, Warraich responded with humility. In an interview, he said, “My status is even below toilet cleaners. I am street dust.” He then quoted the famous Sufi poet Mian Muhammad Bakhsh, who once described himself as “Galiyan da rora kora” — the dust of the streets.
He also reminded everyone that cleaning is a noble job, and no one should use it as an insult. “People who clean others’ waste are doing honorable work,” he added.
His graceful and dignified response touched many hearts, turning the tide of the conversation. Instead of focusing on the negativity of the original remark, people are now praising Warraich for his character, humility, and wisdom.
