The biggest challenge for Ayesha arose when she was replaced for few weeks with Jugnoo Mohsin, the wife of veteran journalist Najam Sethi.

She fought her way back and hosts the program till this day.

During her journey, the worst thing she had to go through was when the Khabaranak host was accused of not wearing Shalwar (pants) while addressing a small gathering of transgenders.

It was the worst kind of allegation any woman have to face.
