Despite clear rules stating that a contestant could pick only one card, Arbaz picked five and distributed them among his friends. Sapna noticed the violation and called them out for cheating. This led to a heated exchange between Sapna and Adnan. Sapna hurled abuses at him, to which Adnan responded, "Tu mard logon ki tarah gaali kyun de rahi hai? Aurat hai aurat ki tarah reh (Why are you abusing like men do? You’re a woman, behave like a woman)." Sapna hit back sharply and said, "Tu mujhe yaad mat kara main aurat ya mard. Tu toh kuch bhi nahi hai. Roz dekhti hoon tumhare jaise mard main (Don’t remind me that I’m a woman or a man. You’re nothing at all. I see men like you every day)."Adnan’s remarks triggered strong backlash online. One Reddit user shared the clip and wrote, “Such patriarchal and misogynistic remarks on national television in 2026?
