Shortly after Iqra Aziz subtly admitted that she was in a relationship with Yasir Hussain, Yasir popped the big question.
The proposal was a dramatic affair, even though Yasir claimed the Suno Chanda artist was ‘just a really good friend’ in an interview just days prior.

Yasir Hussain Pops the Question At Awards Ceremony
Word of Yasir Hussain and Iqra Aziz relationship swept across the country when the two started sharing a lot of social media PDA.
They kept things so hush but finally become official, and that too in front of the whole world live on Lux Style Awards.
Here’s how it all went down:

The Deets
Yasir Hussain popped the question as he hosted the LSA (as usual) and Iqra Aziz was left at a loss for words (real-life lights, camera and action moment).
Yasir has started off with saying that since the Tabeer starlet has already won two awards from the stage of Lux Style Awards, he would like to present her with a third.
Iqra had looked all flustered, but she might have had an idea of what was following.
Yasir then got on his knees, and presented her with an engagement ring.
The Ranjha Ranjha Kardi actress managed to get out a nod, saying yes! (phew talk about grand romantic gesture). The couple then embraced each other with a hug and Yasir proceeded to plant kisses on Iqra’s head.

Simultaneously there was uproar due to Yasir Hussain’s statement on Waseem Badami’s show that he was ‘just really good friends’ with Iqra Aziz.
The Yasir Hussain and Iqra Aziz proposal was such a ‘14 yo Nibbi Nibba’ situation and visual to look at. #LSA2019 #YasirHussain

Some people don’t get the outrage about two people proposing to each other:

Meanwhile top trend in Pakistan (country ranked 1 in child pornography) consists of people losing their shit over a public proposal by a celebrity couple #YasirHussain #IqraAziz

Islam teaches about luv and affection but I'm sure some clerics would condemn this but (Quran 30:21) would be enough to shut them up.
I hope Muslims would derail themselves from fake clerics and act upon Hadith that teaches to show affection and luv. #IqraAziz#YasirHussain— Ahmed Khan (@ahmedkhansahab7) July 8, 2019
Some were of the view that such public displays of affection should not happen at all:
#YasirHussain proposed #IqraAziz at #LSA2019!!

At the end of the day, this thing with Iqra Aziz and Yasir Hussain is officially official. Here’s to hoping this also means the end to Yasir’s gaffes on social media and interviews.
