KARACHI – Acclaimed Pakistani actress Saba Qamar has come under public scrutiny following allegations that she has undergone Botox and lip filler treatments, after a recent scene from her drama Pamaal sparked debate on social media.
In the emotional sequence, Saba Qamar — who plays a woman breaking down over her husband’s mistreatment — is shown crying intensely. However, several viewers and online users claimed that her facial expressions appeared stiff and less natural, suggesting the use of cosmetic enhancements.
Many social media users commented that the 41-year-old actress now appears older than her age, with some alleging that Botox has altered her expressions and affected the depth of her acting.
Amid the ongoing discussion, a Dubai-based doctor weighed in on the controversy through a viral video, analyzing what netizens have called Saba Qamar’s “Botox crying.” The doctor stated that while the actress shows signs of light Botox treatment, it was professionally done. He noted the presence of fine lines and minor enhancements, explaining that such procedures could slightly change facial expressions during emotional scenes.
Despite the criticism, Saba Qamar’s fans have continued to express their admiration, saying that her acting talent remains unmatched and that she continues to deliver strong and emotionally resonant performances.
The actress, known for her powerful roles in Baaghi and Kamli, has not yet responded to the circulating rumors.
