Controversies and Legal Issues
1. Feud with Sham Idrees (2016–2018, resurfaced 2025)
Ducky Bhai and fellow YouTuber Sham Idrees got into an intense online feud that began around 2016, when Ducky roasted Sham’s vlogs and personal life, even including his marriage. Their teenage fanbases went into chaos over it. Fast forward to January 2025, Sham reignited the drama—calling out Ducky for alleged bullying, threats, and targeting smaller YouTubers. Sham’s video included testimonies claiming threats to families, intimidation, and property raids. He also shared how his wife’s hijab was disrespected and his father’s reputation was tarnished. Sham urged Ducky to reflect and apologize.

The NCCIA claimed the case involved 27 video links that Ducky used to promote the apps, some of which have been deleted. Investigators alleged he acted as a “country manager” for Binomo without formal approval from organizations like the State Bank of Pakistan or FBR. His mobile phone was seized, with WhatsApp chats and payment data cited as evidence.
