He further claimed that he and his wife supported Rajab in building his online presence on digital platforms
A dispute between Pakistani YouTubers Zulqarnain Sikandar and Rajab Butt has intensified, with Sikandar publicly levelling a series of allegations against Butt for the first time.
Sikandar, who is generally known for avoiding controversies and is popular for family and adventure vlogs with his wife Kanwal Aftab, said the current situation had compelled him to speak out.
The dispute escalated after Rajab allegedly criticised Kanwal, prompting Sikandar to respond. He claimed that Rajab presents himself as “self-made”, but said the reality was otherwise.
According to Sikandar, Rajab first contacted Kanwal in 2021, when he was relatively unknown and his message was seen later in 2023. He added that Rajab was later invited to a podcast in 2023, which he said helped him gain recognition among content creators.
Sikandar further claimed that he and his wife supported Rajab in building his online presence by introducing him on digital platforms, giving shout-outs and helping increase his viewership.
He also alleged that he contributed to expenses related to Rajab’s wedding, including clothing, make-up and other arrangements. In addition, he said financial assistance and support in brand collaborations had been provided on multiple occasions.
Sikandar said he possesses evidence to support his claims, including messages, audio clips and CCTV footage. He also played a voice note of his wife at one point to support his position.
The dispute has since become a topic of discussion on social media, with users expressing differing views on the claims made by both YouTubers, while the matter appears likely to escalate further.
