However, a recent comment by Danish Taimoor during a special Ramadan television appearance has sparked significant controversy. The couple was invited to appear together on the popular show Mehfil-e-Ramadan, where they discussed various topics such as family life, their careers, and their children. However, Danish’s remarks about polygamy during the discussion have caused a stir on social media, leading to trolling and negative reactions.
Who Is Danish Taimoor?
Danish Taimoor has made a name for himself in the Pakistani entertainment industry, known for his roles in television dramas like Jaan Nisar, Kaisi Teri Khudgarzi, and Ab Dekh Khuda Kya Karta Hai. Often portraying characters with a hint of toxic masculinity, he has earned both praise and criticism for his performances.
Danish’s love story with Ayeza Khan is well-known in the industry. According to Bollywoodshaadis, Danish first saw Ayeza on the social networking site Orkut, where he was impressed by her straightforwardness and lack of interest in flirting. The couple quickly fell in love, and after dating for six years and briefly parting ways, they married in 2014. They now have two children: a son named Rayan Taimoor and a daughter, Hoorain Taimoor.

During their appearance on Mehfil-e-Ramadan, Ayeza and Danish discussed a variety of topics related to their personal and professional lives. However, it was Danish’s comment about polygamy that caught the attention of social media users. While speaking about his marriage, Danish stated:
