Pakistani actress and TV host Javeria Saud has apologized to her fellow actress Yumna Zaidi, bringing an end to the ongoing controversy.

She also emphasized the importance of verifying information before airing it on TV.
The video clip in question showed Javeria Saud asking her guests to help identify a picture of Yumna Zaidi from her childhood, making a humorous comment that some people in the industry have been working since the stone age but are still young. Yumna Zaidi responded by saying that she has always had immense respect and love for Javeria Saud and that the comment about her age was misinterpreted.
In response to the controversy, Javeria Saud apologized to Yumna Zaidi on social media, stating that her team had aired the image without verifying its authenticity.
