• The Slap Controversy: In May 2021, Iqrar slapped a man while taking his interview. After the incident, he was severely criticised on the social media. However, he later clarified that the man he slapped was the culprit of a minor girl's (aged 12 years) sexual assault case. He tied the girl, ripped her clothes, and blackmailed her for several years. In a video that he uploaded on his Twitter account, he said,
"When we managed to find this blackmailer. He blamed that girl saying that she stole 1.5 lakh Rs. from his car. As a human, not as an anchor, I ended up slapping him. I have not done this in hiding or in any torture room. I knew there were a lot of cameras, people were recording it on their phones but I couldn’t control myself.” check sources
