Naeema Butt’s noticeable absence from the spotlight during the promotions and on the posters of the hit series Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum has left fans expressing disappointment online.
Many viewers took to social media to share their frustration, hoping to see more of the actress, especially in the lead-up to the show’s finale.
On November 5, the drama’s grand finale was shown in theaters across Pakistan, with a major promotional event held in Karachi.
While several main cast members joined in celebrating the series’ success, Naeema’s absence stood out, leaving fans wondering why she was not more involved in the promotional activities for the season’s final episodes.
This notable lack of representation sparked widespread reactions as fans voiced their sentiments and shared stories, expressing their support and admiration for her role in the drama.
Currently, Naeema is facing criticism on social media over a resurfaced video discussing her decision to leave behind her medical career ambitions.
In the viral clip from Mazak Raat Season 2, Naeema shares that her mother had dreamed of her becoming a doctor. She explained, “I took pre-med courses in FSC and was all set for MDCAT, but when the day arrived, I just couldn’t wake up. That’s when I knew medicine wasn’t for me.” Naeema instead pursued a career in mass communication, leading her to roles in popular dramas like Daasi, Ehd-e-Wafa, Main Khawab Bunti Hu, and Fraud.
However, social media users criticized Naeema’s reasoning, with some suggesting she might be spinning the story to create a proud narrative.
One Instagram user speculated she may have failed the entrance exam, while others commented that medical school demands serious commitment, implying she wasn’t fully dedicated.
Critics noted that her story seemed like an attempt to stay relevant in the limelight.
