Days after Samiya Hijab's MMS was leaked, Pakistani TikToker now gets trolled over reel on Indo-Pak war tension
When you thought the internet could not get any messier, Pakistani TikTok star Samiya Hijab decided to stir the pot a little more. Days after chaos erupted after an alleged MMS of hers leaked online, which she claims is a deepfake, Samiya has now posted a reel on Instagram, poking fun at the India-Pakistan geo-political situation. And of course, the internet had thoughts.
Samiya Hijab's reel on the Indo-Pak situation
In the reel, Samiya delivered a tragicomic take on the life of 2004-2005 born kids. According to the Karachi-born social media content creator, there has been one disaster after another in the sub-continent. From the 2005 earthquake in her early years (Samiya was born in 2004) to a pandemic while she was in her late teens, life has been a series of serious events, she describes in the reel she posted.
She also goes on to mention that the streak of bad luck continues as clouds of war between India and Pakistan following the dastardly Pahalgam attack on April 22, 2025 - in which 26 Indians were killed - weigh on her impending wedding. Not mincing words, she also implies that her generation must have been cursed in another life to be facing this level of cosmic 'bad luck'.
Netizens react to Samiya Hijab's video
While many could not help but be amused, others were quick to point out the obvious: "Who gets married at 20-21 anyway?" The Comment section turned into a battleground of its own, with some agreeing while others critiquing her for being "too casual" considering her own situation after the MMS scandal erupted.
The irony of Samiya sharing funny content while the internet is still buzzing over her alleged explicit video was not lost on anyone. Netizens pointed out how unfazed she appeared, with some admiring her nerve and others accusing her of being tone-deaf.
Who is Samiya Hijab and what is happening with her?
For those living under a rock, Samiya recently broke down on social media claiming the viral video was a fake, created using AI, and blamed an ex-boyfriend for orchestrating the whole nightmare.

She has reportedly filed a formal complaint with Pakistan's Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Cyber Crime Wing, demanding a thorough probe. This echoes previous scandals where other Pakistani influencers like Minahil Malik, Maryam Faisal, Sajal Malik, and Zarnab Shastri also found themselves battling deepfake controversies.

Also read: Olivia Munn was insecure about shooting sex scenes with Jon Hamm after multiple cancer surgeries: I have a lot of scars John took to his Instagram Stories on June 11 to address the hate coming their way. He is wondering how people are connecting the remarks to the couple 'not caring about the deaths of children in Gaza'. 'An innocent comment my wife Olivia Munn made about what children's programs we like has somehow - unbelievably been - conflated with not caring about the deaths of children in Gaza,' he wrote. John added, 'Because of this, my wife and my two kids are now receiving violent and threatening comments and messages in her DMs. This is absolutely insane and needs to stop. The people doing this are so wildly out of line and so unhelpful to any conversation'. 'You took a nothing comment to a dark and dangerous place. This kind of behaviour isn't activism,' he wrote while concluding the note. Earlier, Olivia had issued a statement of her own regarding the backlash, writing that she 'never anticipated' her comment would have such a ripple effect. 'My comments were never meant to diminish the joy, comfort and impact she brings to so many families. I don't want something taken out of context to be a moment that steals even a minute of joy for anyone,' she wrote in an Instagram Stories which she posted on June 10. Some days back, Olivia had shared why Ms. Rachel, whose real name is Rachel Griffin Accurso, doesn't have a presence in her household. She shared her views in an interview with People magazine. Olivia said, 'I know kids love (Ms. Rachel), but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy. These kid shows drive me crazy.' And it wasn't just about Ms. Rachel, who is a popular YouTuber famous for making videos that help kids with language development. 'Malcolm asked for Blue's Clues (recently), and I don't know who showed him Blue's Clues, but they are on my s**t list now. I said, 'Hell no. Not in my house'', Olivia said. The publication has since taken the interview down. Rachel also reacted to headlines focused on the remark, writing in a comment shared on Instagram on June 9, 'I'd rather you cover my advocacy for kids in Gaza'. She added that her statement was not directed at Olivia, noting that she doesn't 'care that she doesn't want to watch the show', and sent love to her and her family. John and Olivia were first spotted together in June 2021 and welcomed their son Malcolm Hiệp five months later. In July 2024, they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at a friend's house in New York, with Sam Waterston marrying the pair. Two months later, the couple welcomed their second child together, daughter Méi June.
