Actor Danish Taimoor has stirred controversy with his recent comments about having the right to marry four times. During a Ramazan transmission, he casually stated that while he has the permission, he is not exercising it “for now.” His remarks quickly caught attention, with many criticizing the tone and timing of his statement, especially as his wife, Ayeza Khan, was present.
Following the backlash, Danish clarified that “for now” meant he would stay with Ayeza for as long as he is alive, adding that no one knows what the future holds. However, his initial statement left many questioning whether it was a publicity stunt or a reflection of his actual beliefs. Social media users reacted strongly, with many pointing out how men often highlight their right to multiple marriages while ignoring the conditions attached to it.

Critics also noted that despite being married to one of Pakistan’s most successful actresses, Danish repeatedly emphasized his right rather than focusing on his commitment to his wife. Many viewers found his comments unnecessary, while some supporters defended him by arguing that he simply stated a fact.
The incident has reignited discussions about patriarchal attitudes in society. While Danish insists that he deeply respects his wife, his words have fueled a larger conversation about how men in the public eye influence cultural narratives. His statement may have been meant lightly, but for many, it underscored lingering gender inequalities.
