Is it true or just drama?
Hello friends!
We love sharing stories that get people talking, and right now, one topic is everywhere online.
Famous crime writer Hussain Zaidi recently had Zubair Khan on his YouTube podcast “Hussain Zaidi Files.”
The episode is called “From D-Company to Bigg Boss: What Zubair Khan Saw Inside Mumbai’s Underworld & Power Circles.“
Many people are asking: Was it a mistake for Zaidi to invite him? Many comments call Zubair a liar.
Others find his stories interesting.
Let us look at it simply and help you decide.
Who Is Zubair Khan?
Zubair became famous in 2017 on Bigg Boss Season 11.
He said he had family links to Dawood Ibrahim’s sister, Haseena Parkar.
He fought with host Salman Khan on the show, got angry, and even filed a police case.
He left the show early.
After that, life was hard.
In 2018, police arrested him for trying to scare a businesswoman and ask for money using big gangster names.
He spent time in jail but says he never committed serious crimes.
He grew up in tough areas of Mumbai but stayed away from bad things.
Today, Zubair makes films, directs, and produces.
He says he loves India and has helped police with information about dangers.
What Did Zubair Say In The Podcast?
The talk lasts more than three hours.
Zaidi lets Zubair share his life story freely.
Main points Zubair made:
- Life Near Gangsters: He grew up in places like Dongri and Pakmodia Street. As a child, he saw people like Dawood Ibrahim, Chhota Shakeel, and Abu Salem. However, he says they lived everyday lives, no fancy clothes or big show like in movies. He does not like how films portray gangsters as cool, as it can mislead young people.
- About Pathan Families: He was raised by strong Pathan families in a place called “Arab ka Bangla.” He says they were honest businessmen, not criminals. He is proud of Pathans and shares how many fought for India.
- Big Reveal About Zakir Naik: Zubair says he worked for Zakir Naik’s TV channel for 1.5 years. He saw money coming from outside countries in the wrong way. He told government agencies, and they took property worth over 1,193 crores.
- Helping Police: He claims he gave tips about possible terrorists and worked with good officers.
- Bigg Boss And Salman Khan: He talks a little about the old fight, but says everything is okay now. He focuses on how he has changed his life.
Zaidi listens and asks questions, but mostly lets Zubair speak.
Why Do Some People Say It Was A Mistake?
Not everyone believes Zubair.
Many comments say:
- His stories sound too big and dramatic, especially after his loud claims on Bigg Boss.
- His past arrest has led people to doubt him.
- Some of the things he says are hard to verify, so people call him a liar.
But others like it.
They say Zaidi is careful and only invites people worth hearing.
Zubair also speaks against making crime look good and against wrong religious people, which feels honest to them.
At THOUSIF Inc. – INDIA, we do not think it is an apparent mistake.
Podcasts with strong guests start real talks.
