Ramsha Khan’s sister’s English Nikah sparks backlash

The wedding celebrations of Pakistani actress Ramsha Khan’s sister, Alysha Khan, have attracted significant attention

The wedding celebrations of Pakistani actress Ramsha Khan’s sister, Alysha Khan, have attracted significant attention on social media, with her Nikah ceremony becoming a major topic of discussion among internet users.

Alysha’s wedding festivities have been circulating online in recent days. However, much of the attention has focused not only on the bride and the celebrations but also on the language used during the Nikah ceremony.

The Nikah was conducted in English during a daytime ceremony. Clips from the event appeared on social media and quickly generated mixed reactions from viewers.

Some social media users questioned the decision to conduct the Nikah in English and compared it with the traditional way of solemnising marriages in Pakistan. Several commenters argued that the ceremony appeared influenced by Western culture, while others criticised what they described as an attempt to adopt a foreign style.

The bride’s pronunciation also became a subject of online discussion. In a widely circulated clip, viewers focused on her pronunciation of the phrase “I do,” with some users making jokes and critical comments about her accent.

The reaction soon turned into a wider debate about cultural traditions and personal choices. Some users defended the family’s decision, arguing that the language used during a Nikah does not change the religious or legal nature of the marriage. Others continued to question why an English-language ceremony was chosen for a Pakistani wedding.

Ramsha Khan herself has largely stayed away from the spotlight during her sister’s wedding festivities. Despite considerable interest from her followers, she has reportedly avoided sharing pictures and videos of herself from the celebrations.

The actress has also kept her personal life private following her marriage to actor Khushhal Khan. She previously made her Instagram account private and has maintained a relatively low profile since leaving the acting scene.

Ramsha Khan became a familiar face in Pakistani television after beginning her career in the entertainment industry. She appeared in several successful dramas and films, including Mah-e-Tamaam, Khud Parast, Kaisa Hai Naseeba, Shehnai, Ishqiya, Hum Tum, Sinf-e-Aahan and Duniyapur.

Her relationship and subsequent marriage to her former drama co-star Khushhal Khan also attracted considerable public attention. Since then, the actress has largely kept her family matters away from the media.

Meanwhile, Alysha Khan’s wedding has continued to generate discussion online. Some users also questioned why entertainment and social media pages were giving extensive coverage to the wedding despite the bride not being a prominent public figure.
