Model and actress Saheefa Jabbar Khattak has jumped into the food industry with her Picky Patty and Roni’s Pizzeria restaurants, and things have not taken off smoothly. In her Yes Chef series on Instagram, she has been taking her followers through the journey of launching her eatery and the struggle that comes with it. The candid conversations, however, have taken a dip, as Saheefa is enraged by the 1-star reviews on Google.
Her emotions ran down in tears as she claimed that the reviews are paid propaganda to pull her down, stating that seeing a woman entrepreneur intimidates this society. She said that a woman who wants to become a business owner is not allowed to work by the book; she is harassed and pulled down. The society only wants a woman behind a man who assaults and harasses her, she tearfully added.
Saheefa further added that the only way to succeed in the country is through bribery, blackmail and corruption. She said she has been handing out orders herself and was suddenly bombarded with negative reviews post-midnight. She believes that the people she has been catering to are unaware of Google reviews, and this is an attempt to break her. Promising not to give up, she posted on Instagram:
