But still indirect shade is being thrown at her. 
Now pls don't term this as a constructive criticism 
There is a difference between constructive criticism & shading 
Pakistani audience will always shade the government over any celebrity. All the recipients are just collateral damage in the people vs government trust issues. 
People bring up popular names because through SM and tv/films they know these faces and have opinions about them. Whereas the military people, doctors, engineers, other civil servants who received the awards are unknown faces. As simple as that. 
For all we know, Sajal and Adnan and Rahat and whoever has won could have been up for this award ages ago. But political interferences do affect these things in Pakistan. 
if you look at the Pakistani peopleâs reaction on these awards you will understand why the disillusionment is there. Itâs not about any media person. Itâs about why is this current government we donât trust giving an award to THIS person. What is the agenda - type of thinking. And this disillusionment is what we are discussing. How different it is from India
