She compared these awards to national elections, stating that if election results in Pakistan are unreliable, awards voting cannot be trusted either.

Despite her critique, she praised younger actors for delivering authentic performances, contributing positively to Pakistani dramas and raising industry standards overall.
Seemi emphasized that talent and dedication remain more important than awards, which often fail to reflect true artistic achievement in the industry.
Her comments reflect growing frustration with the commercialization and favoritism surrounding Pakistani award shows, highlighting the need for fair recognition mechanisms.
The actress concluded that while awards may be flawed, the genuine efforts of actors continue to enrich Pakistan’s entertainment landscape consistently.
