Impact on Career and Finances

Before the controversy, Samiya had established herself as a rising star on Instagram and TikTok, collaborating with brands and enjoying steady success. However, once the alleged private video surfaced online, she faced heavy trolling, public backlash, and professional setbacks. Major collaborations were withdrawn, leaving her in financial distress.

Personal Struggles Behind the Fame

Opening up about her personal journey, Samiya revealed that she began working at the age of 17 to support her family, as her mother and she had endured hardships without much support from her father. While she credited him as a ‘good father’, she pointed out that he was ‘never a good husband’, forcing her and her mother to struggle for stability.

Despite those challenges, Samiya built her career step by step, becoming a recognized content creator. But the leak, she said, ‘destroyed everything’ she had worked for.

Emotional Confession

In her candid statement, Samiya acknowledged the heavy psychological toll the scandal had taken on her. She admitted she felt completely broken at one point, saying: “I wanted to end it all.”

Her revelations have sparked conversations across Pakistan about the mental health challenges faced by social media influencers, as well as the devastating consequences of online harassment and privacy breaches.
