Everyone was shocked and very concerned when they found out that their favorite stars had a terrible accident. Prayers came pouring in and people wanted to know how they were doing. Soon after wards Fakhar-e-Alam tweeted about their condition in which he said that Ayesha had suffered multiple injuries and Azfar had an injury on the head. Fans were happy to know that the two were in stable condition.

Ayesha Omar and Azfar have not talked about the accident or their injuries since it happened. Ayesha finally decided to break the silence on her facebook page. She shared everything from how the accident happened to what her condition was after that. She wrote,

“As you all must know, I’ve broken my right collar bone and fractured my right shoulder. The last three days have been excruciatingly painful and i got no sleep the first 2 nights despite a mixture of heavy painkillers and sedatives. Finally got a few hours last night and I’m back home from the hospital. I didn’t lose consciousness at the time of the accident despite being in agonising pain and my first thought was of gratitude. I was shocked and grateful to be alive and wanted to be out of the car as soon as possible but was not allowing anyone to touch me because I knew I had broken something in my shoulder and didn’t want to be mishandled.”

Talking about the accident she wrote,

“We hit an overtaking truck on the highway just before Hyderabad and had two collisions due to being bumped into by another truck from the back. It’s a miracle that me and Azfar came out alive because the car was completely destroyed. I was immobile and picked up by Azfar and a group of passersby and put into a police mobile that transported us to a rundown government clinic in Jamshoro. My next few thoughts were a mixture of extreme terror of being kidnapped or mugged by dacoits on the highway taking advantage of our vulnerable situation and of thousands of little kids strewn on the ground after various explosions in the world, with no one to help them and give them any medical help.”

The good thing was that Azfar although had a head injury but he was fine otherwise. Ayesha further said,

“Luckily Azfar was in complete control despite sustaining a minor head injury and it was him who took care of me for the next 3 hours in Jamshoro and during the excruciating, bumpy and never-ending 4 hour drive alone in an ambulance back to Khi. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have made it back safely and God knows how I would’ve been handled. Those 6 hours were the toughest few hours of my life and Azfar Rehman protected and cared for me like I was his own child. God bless him a hundred times over and may everyone have friends like him in their lives. He’s proved to be the most amazing friend and care-taker ever. He helped me endure my pain, deal with the trauma and panic, kept wiping my unstoppable tears, and kept me hydrated till we reached Khi. From there on, it was just x-rays and painkillers.”

Talking about what Ayesha wants to do next. She said,

“I’m in too much pain, too exhausted and weak to pick up the phone and talk all the time but will be able to do so and meet people from day after. Recovery time is 6-8 weeks and I’ll be home bound mostly. A much-needed break from my crazy lifestyle. Just wanted to share my experience and thank you all for the boundless love and wishes.”

She also mentioned how thankful she was to her friends who were by her side in this troubled time. She wrote,

“Maria Wasti, Erum Shahid, Alexandre Rizvi, and Mahnoor Sherazee have been by my side throughout and I could not ask for better care-givers. They did not wince once and have taken care of me beyond any expectations while being in constant touch with my poor stressed mum who was unable to travel immediately. I love you guys and cannot thank you enough. I hope I’m able to do the same for you all, if (God forbid) need be.”

Drama Serial Abro which started on HUM last night has some big names attached to it. The writer is Qaisra Hayat, Umera Ahmed has written the screen play for the drama and has also edited the script and the director is Illyas Kashimri, another big name in our drama industry. When there are such big names attached to a drama you expect something decent and responsible if not perfect. Aabro is unfortunately another story that is based on showing a spoiled girl who is talking on the phone with boys all the time, brags with her friends about her boyfriends and has no respect for her mother who works day and night to make sure that her children get a good life and are well qualified. Watching this first episode will make you question why is showing such girls in our dramas so important and why are these girls playing leading roles in dramas?

The following clip from the drama shows Aabro having a fun chat with her friends. It is disappointing to see our dramas showing such things like they are common practice and what is even more disappointing is that this drama is titled after the name of this girl who is hardly a role model for anyone. What are we showing in our dramas and what are we trying to tell our girls? Are we saying that all of this is okay? Are we saying that all this is normal? In almost every play nowadays we see girls showing no respect for their parents and going after rich men. The channels are glorifying something which should be shunned. This is not a way to create awareness or showing reality but this is like spreading immoral behavior. If you haven’t watched the first episode, watch the clip and decide for yourself.

Bushra Ansari is a powerhouse of talent. There is so much that everyone can learn from her not just about career building and determination but also about life. It isn’t very often that Bushra Ansari talks about her personal life but this time when she was invited as a guest in Ek Nayee Subha With Farah she talked about how she used to be and how much she has changed over the years. She said,

“There was a time when I used to cry a lot. Every time I used to feel underappreciated by my husband in any way I used to cry all night. I always used to wait for him to appreciate me in some way but it never happened and slowly I learned to be happy and stopped looking for his appreciation because I knew it wasn’t going to happen!! Husbands in our society think that praising their wives or appreciating them is wrong although it would be so good for their marriages if they do that.”

Bushra Ansari also thinks that our society in general does not allow women to be happy. While talking about the women in the audience she said that you don’t see them laughing as much as the men because,

“It is almost as if our women are not allowed to be happy. Even in our dramas we don’t see women being happy. The women who come to these talk shows can’t even laugh properly because people will criticize them if they do!!”

Here are some pictures from the show:

Faysal Qureshi is being seen in many dramas nowadays. He is playing the lead role in drama serials Naraaz and Bheegi Palkein alongside Sarah Khan and Ushna Shah. There was a time when we were not getting to see enough of Faysal Qureshi in dramas because he was busy hosting his own Morning Show. After leaving the Morning Show the talented actor took up several projects and fans were happy to see their favorite actor back in dramas. Right now Faysal Qureshi is busy with his new project with Big Bang Entertainment in which he stars opposite Sajjal Ali. The title of the drama has not been revealed yet but we know that it has been directed by the famous and talented director Anjum Shehzad. Faysal Qureshi is one of those actors who have been seen in dramas for many years now but they still look young enough to work with new actresses like Ushna Shah, Sarah Khan and now Sajjal Ali. Nauman Ijaz, Faisal Rehman and Adnan Siddiqui are few other actors who has played the lead with some very young actresses.

Here are some pictures from Faysal Qureshi’s upcoming play with Sajjal and the director Anjum Shehzad. Faysal Qureshi and Anjum Shehzad also teamed up for the serial Rang Laga.

Here are some pictures from all these events.

On the family front Faysal Qureshi has been busy celebrating his cute daughter Ayat’s 4th birthday. Faysal Qureshi is a family man who always finds time for his family in his busy schedule. Here are some pictures from Ayat’s birthday party in which Faysal Qureshi invited only his close friends.

Uroosa Siddiqui is one of those very few female actresses in our industry who have excelled in the field of comedy. She is well-known by all those people who watch Pakistani dramas. Uroosa is always frank and chirpy in her interviews. She is also a very straight forward person. Apart from comic roles Uroosa has also been seen playing serious roles in several dramas. Uroosa Siddiqui tied the know last week. She got married to Saqib Khan. The to-be bride was invited to Nida Yasir’s Morning Show in which she enjoyed a dholak function on live TV. Nadia Hussain, Alia Imam and Uroosa’s mother were also present on the occasion.

Uroosa Siddiqui shared that her valima ceremony was going to be held in Lahore. She also told what color of dresses she was wearing on Barat and Valima.

Here are some pictures from Uroosa’s dholak function on Nida’s show and also from her wedding day.

Everyone is well aware of the fact that Sahir Lodhi has always tried his best to look and act like Shah Rukh Khan although he says that he does not like it when people compare him with the Indian actor. His entire look and style of talking however suggest something completely different. When Shah Rukh Khan and Sahir Lodhi finally met, it was like the impossible happening since these two people are connected in some way for the longest time now even though they have never met each other. People cracked jokes about their meeting in Sahir Lodhi’s show on social media too. Undoubtedly these two individuals do have similar looks but Sahir Lodhi’s attempts to talk like Shah Rukh too is what irritates people.

The video in which Sahir Lodhi requested people to stop comparing him with Shah Rukh Khan has been removed from most of the websites prior to the interview. In this video he even said that Shah Rukh was the one who copied him! He addressed Shah Rukh Khan in the video and said, “it is high time that you should stop copying me.”

During the interview Sahir Lodhi shared with Shah Rukh Khan that ever since he was in the university people told him he looked like Shah Rukh Khan. It seemed like that is something which the Indian star knew already and he told him that Sahir had a very unique style and he should not let people say things like that to him. Shah Rukh Khan also called Sahir Lodhi “Khoobsurat” which isn’t really a compliment for a man!! He said,

” I have heard you on radio and you have a style all of your own. If ever someone tells you that you look or sound like me tell them that your style is your very own!”

Kajol couldn’t stop laughing all through this discussion but Shah Rukh Khan kept a very serious expression on his face.

See the video and judge if Shah Rukh Khan really was complimenting Sahir Lodhi or making fun of him!!

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are making their presence felt in Pakistan by being part of every talk show which is watched by many Pakistanis on routine basis. Shah Rukh and Kajol are doing so to promote their comeback film Dilawale as an on-screen couple. They have engaged in many candid discussions with all the hosts which has most certainly added to their popularity in Pakistan.

Shah Rukh has also had the opportunity to work with Mahira Khan in his upcoming film Raees. Mahira Khan plays the role of Shah Rukh’s wife in the film. He has always praised his Pakistani co-star every time he has been asked how it was like working with her. While talked to Shaista Lodhi in her Morning Show he once again made sure that everyone knew how much he appreciated the work done by Mahira Khan. He also thinks that Mahira Khan’s presence has added value to his film which is a big compliment since his presence alone usually adds a great deal of value to any film he is a part of. While talking about Mahira he said,

“Mahira Khan is a brilliant actress, she is very beautiful. She has given a very good performance in Raees and she has added a lot of value to the film.”

While talking to media he said that he really enjoyed his visit to Pakistan. He also said that some of his family members also live in Peshawar. He added,

“If I ever have the chance to work in Pakistan or live here I would love that.”

Aamir Liaquat always manages to attract the attention of the public in some way or the other. This time around Aamir Liaquat resigned from Geo TV once again because he thought that it was wrong of Geo News to ask their anchors to wear APS uniform when they were reading the news. He said that he even called the high ups late but his voice was not heard. It sounded like he felt “used”. He said that he was only used to get ratings for Geo Kahani because the channel was not getting good viewership but otherwise Geo TV did not care about his sentiments at all. Aamir Liaquat said all this on his live show on Geo Kahani. He said that he was not happy leaving Geo but now that he had resigned from it, he has no intentions of ever taking his position in Geo TV back. He also said,

“I can’t work in a place where people’s views and opinions are suppressed. Where people’s voice is not heard. I called many of my high ups yesterday but no one talked to me which means they do not want to hear what I have to say.”

Geo TV responded to these allegations in this way.

Shamoon Abbasi is someone who is unfortunately known more for his failed marriages than anything else. Every time people discuss him it is mostly because of his failed marriages and not because of everything that he has done in his career. Shamoon Abbasi shared in Nadia Khan’s Morning Show today how it made him feel like when people passed comments which were hurtful and other things which suggest that he is a bad person. He said,

“I am not a hypocrite, I believe in having honest relationships. I marry the girls I wanted in my life, I did not have affairs. I can also have relationships outside marriage but I have been very conscious that being a Muslim it is wrong to live with a girl without being married to her. People have one wife and 13 girlfriends and that is okay with people but a person whose marriages have failed people judge them. Even if there is a picture of me with my co-star or friend people pass degrading comments which is upsetting but I don’t let it get to me.”

Shamoon said that somehow people always think that it must have been the man’s fault when that is not always the case. He said,

“I have also been rejected by my wives, women left me too. Why do people take it for granted that the man has to be at fault? I have cried and begged my wives not to leave me but they left me any way. I have been hurt and I have been rejected. Thankfully I have fans who love for my work and there is only a selected group of people on social media who are obsessed with marriages and divorces, that is all they want to talk about.”

Talking about why all his relationships failed, he said,

“In all my 3 marriages, I realized that women do not like everything to go steady. When everything is going right, they want that there should be some fluctuation. I felt like I needed someone who would be willing to change for me but women want me to change, they want a saint. I do not cheat, I do not gamble but I am not perfect either and I needed someone who would accept me for who I am.”

Shamoon Abbasi is currently busy shooting for an action series titled “Yeh Janoon” in which he will be playing the role of a police officer.

In Pakistan, currently three film censor boards are functional. To screen a film in civil administrated areas of Punjab and Sindh censor certificate from Punjab Borad of Film Certification (PBFC) and Sindh Board of Film Certification (CBFC) is required respectively. For all the rest of regions i.e. KPK, Balochistan, Federal Capital Islamabad as well as the cantonment areas of Sindh and Punjab censor certificacte from Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) is required.

These three censor boards often became a point of debate due to their inconsistence decisions. Majority of the members of the PFBC and SBFC are former artists or cultural activist, whereas the CBFC has a majority of bureaucrats and retired security officials.

The recent example of inconsistent decision making from censor boards is regarding the Bollywood film Bajirao Mastani due to release on Friday 18th December 2015. It is based on the historical events of famous Marhatta ruler Bajirao and his wife Mastani (Mastani is considered as Muslim by few historians). The PBFC has issued the censor certificate without any objection, the SBFC has allowed the screening after cutting a merely 20 second sequence. However the film is stuck in CBFC who have objections on its screening.

Speaking to Express Tribune the chairman of CBFC has explained their twisted logic as follows.

Mobasher Hasan, chairman of the CBFC, told The Express Tribune the reason behind the decision. “Firstly, the film is in Hindi and our ordinance does not allow Hindi films to be screened,” he said. “Secondly, it is a historical drama that is indirectly against Islam and Muslims,” he further added.

Although it was expected that intimate scenes and certain action sequences might prompt such a decision, Hasan clarified this was not the case. “There are intimate scenes in the film but they were not a major concern for the panel,” he noted. While the film was rejected by a panel initially, local distributors have called for a full board review of the film, once again.

With only one day left in its release the film is expected to get a censor certificate from CBFC today after review from the full board. In case the film fails to get a censor certificate from CBFC, it will only be released in the civil administrated areas of Punjab and Sindh. However such inconsistent decision making from the three censor boards always raise questions on the code of censor followed by these boards.

Earlier this year a Pakistani film Swaarangi was banned by CBFC but passed the knives of PBFC and SBFC without any cuts. Similarly a Bollywood film Ragini MMS 2 in 2014 was passed by CBFC and SBFC but was banned by PBFC.

Popularity of Indian Bollwyood’s films in Pakistan is beyond any comparison especially when it is full of star cast. Regardless of the political situation with neighboring India, Indian Bollywood films always perform well in Pakistan.

On Friday, 18th December 2015 two star cast Bollywood films are releasing Dilwale starring Shahrukh Khan, Kajol and Bajirao Mastani starring Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra.

As per press reports the advance booking of both the films is quite high especially Dilwale has a clear edge over Bajirao Mastani. Only in once city Karachi even before its release Dilwale has earned 20 lakh (200,000) rupees in advance bookings. Seeing this trend at few places the distributors of Dilwale have increased the ticket prices as well.

The star cast of Dilwale has also appeared in multiple morning shows on different Pakistani television channels to promote the film like on Hum Tv, Hum Sitaray and Dunya Tv.

From past three four years Bollywood films released in the month of December earn huge revenues on Pakistani box office.

After doing a few projects in India, Humaima Malick is back in Pakistan making her presence felt. Few days back Humaima Malick posted a picture of herself with the famous and talented Shaan Shahid on the sets of Arth 2 which is an upcoming film that is going to be the first film of its kind because it will be made in collaboration with India.

Humaima Malick has always been known for her bold stance. She has never let any of the criticism around her effect her in any way. Humaima Malick also took part in the recently held Bridal Couture Week. She walked the ramp as a show stopper. Humaima Malick was the showstopper for the famous designer Nilofur Shahid. Humaima Malick takes pride in the fact that she is a self made woman and she also believes that a woman is no lesser than a man. Humaima Malick has always maintained that she is fierce and strong and she says she is not in love with anyone else but she is in love with herself.

Here are some recent pictures of Humaima Malick from the sets of Arth2 and others from the backstage, red carpet and ramp of Bridal Couture Week.

Fawad Khan seems to be enjoying doing some small projects in Pakistan. He is not shooting for the films he has signed yet but we have recently seen him the Tapal commercial and now he is also seen endorsing the brand Republic. There are billboards everywhere in which we can see Fawad Khan because Pakistanis love him and anything that he promotes gets popular without any doubt. Fawad Khan has been busy in India but now that we are seeing him in advertisements and promoting brands hopefully we will see him on television too. Fawad Khan has always said that he is an introvert by nature so he avoids being seen in public and giving interviews as much as he can. He however had to overcome his introvert nature when he was busy promoting his film in India because you cannot refuse to promote a film you are playing a lead role in. Fawad Khan has signed four films in Pakistan. He will also be seen making a guest appearance in the film Ho Mann Jahan.

Here are some pictures from Fawad Khan’s latest photo shoot.

Mawra Hocane’s debut Bollywood film “Sanam Teri Kasam” has been in the news for a few weeks now after the poster of the film came out. Now the Pakistani fans and viewers will have much more to talk about since the trailer of the film shows that Mawra Hocane was very bold in the film. She is seen lip locking with her hero and she is also seen in some other scenes which might not be liked by the conservative Pakistani fans who did not expect Mawra to be this bold. Mawra Hocane is shown as a girl who is pretty but she feels that no one loves her.

In one of her interviews Mawra Hocane said that she did not do anything which would hurt the sensitivities of the people of Pakistan but the trailer shows some scenes which show that Mawra forgot all about her commitments with her own people when she went to work in India. Many Pakistani actors say that they will not do anything controversial in their films but most often we see them doing things which can never be accepted by the audience here.

Here is the trailer of Mawra’s Bollywood debut. Take a look and share your opinion.

Mahira Khan is attending a lot of Morning Shows nowadays to promote her upcoming film Ho Mann Jahan. She was invited as a guest in Good Morning Pakistan in which she shared details about the shooting of the very famous song Shakar Wandan and the film in general.

Mahira Khan also talked about how she felt after working in India. Nida Yasir said that most Pakistani actors who work in India become arrogant. How did Mahira feel after working in India? She said,

“How can I be arrogant or proud of myself. I am proud of my country, very proud because whatever fame or respect I have today is there because I worked in Pakistani dramas and films. People recognize me because of the work I did in my country.”

Mahira Khan also talked about the threats she and Fawad Khan got from Indian extremist party Shiv Sena. Mahira Khan said,

“I have always stayed away from controversies. I have never resorted to controversial things to get fame because that would only create problems for me.”

Mahira Khan also shared that Sarmad Khoosat has this cute nickname for her which is “Gangu”. Mahira Khan is also known as “Mazdoor Khan” on sets because of her down-to-earth nature.

Talking about the shooting of the song Shakar Wandan. Mahira Khan said she had a fall and got injured a day before the shooting. She said,

“I rehearsed a lot for Shakar Wandan song and I was very sure that I was going to nail it but then you go to the sets and you fall on the second day of the shoot. Thank God I could come back on the set. The director said we will simmer the steps down. How could that be possible! It was Mehndi song, how could we simmer it down?”

Mahira Khan and all the others gave their best to this song. Even Shehryar Munawar fell while shooting for this song. Famous actress Nimra Bucha who is also a part of the film said Ho Mann Jahan is,

“The Rolls Royce of production!”

Here are some pictures from the show in which Mahira appeared.
