Pakistan’s leading digital creator and YouTuber Saad ur Rehman, popularly known as Ducky Bhai, has described the three months he spent in jail as the most difficult yet life-changing phase of his life, saying the experience completely transformed his thinking, lifestyle, and religious commitment.
With over 9 million subscribers, Ducky Bhai is currently one of Pakistan’s most followed YouTubers.
In a recent exclusive interview, Ducky Bhai revealed that following his arrest by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), the freezing of his bank accounts, and seizure of funds, he spent nearly three months behind bars. He termed this period extremely challenging both mentally and physically but also called it a turning point in his life.
Speaking about his religious transformation, Ducky Bhai said that before going to jail, he was careless about offering prayers. However, after the day of his arrest, he did not miss a single prayer.
“I felt this time came to bring me closer to Allah. I did not remember Allah in my good days, which was my selfishness. Perhaps Allah wanted me to change,” he said.
Talking about health and food conditions in jail, Ducky Bhai shared that the simple meals, mainly wheat bread and basic food, led to noticeable weight loss. However, he said the simplicity of the diet proved beneficial for his health.
“Of course, I missed fast food, but the simple jail food made me feel physically better,” he added.
Reflecting on social media fame, Ducky Bhai said controversies did not affect him much before his arrest, but his perspective has now changed.
“I no longer see social media the way I used to. I continue this work only for my fans because they wait for me,” he said.
At the end of the interview, Ducky Bhai advised fellow YouTubers to be cautious, saying mistakes can happen to anyone.
“Always review your content before uploading. One wrong step on the internet can change your entire life,” he warned.
