The show began airing in 2003 from Dubai. In November 2006, Khan moved to Geo TV to a new live chat and interview show called the Nadia Khan Show (Geo Mazay Say). She interviewed a variety of Pakistani celebrities, artists, performers, religious leaders, athletes and politicians. There were also segments on Islam, and health and beauty. The show was banned in 2010 by the Dubai government. Sources say that Khan showed actress Noor Bukhari and her husband fight before Bukhari's interview. Her husband claimed in court that "our family matter", so the court banned Khan's show in Dubai for six months.
Khan won the Masala Lifestyle Awards For Best TV Presenter 2008 and Masala Lifestyle Awards For Best TV Presenter 2009, out of five candidates, from Zee Tv, Sony TV, Star Plus and ARY Digital.[10]
Khan resumed her anchoring career after a year in August 2011 with Eid Transmission on Dunya News. On 31 March 2012, the Nadia Khan Show returned to Geo TV as a night-time, consumer-oriented talk show..[11] She resumed anchoring with a brief year-long run from 2015 to 2016 of her morning show (Nadia Khan Show) on Geo TV.[12] She hosted Croron Mein Khel, a game show, on BOL Entertainment.
In January 2018, Khan became the first Pakistani beauty, fashion and lifestyle YouTube influencer to reach 100,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel, Outstyle.[13][14]
In 2019, she started a morning show again on PTV named Morning @ home.[15]
