Hum TV is one of the big three channels for Pakistani dramas. With many classics on their credit, this channel gave way to great stories on mainstream media. Lately, the channel is putting out more misses than hits. Yes, the stories are diversifying but they are also becoming more illogical. Consequently, if a drama like Ishq Mrshid or Meem se Mohabba becomes a hit, it gets stretched unnecessarily.
The latest shows we have been watching on Hum TV have not hit the mark. All these dramas have star-srudded casts but they are not doing a lot for the viewers. The first one is Masoom starring Imran Ashraf, Sonya Hussyn and Mikaal Zulfiqar which has just started. It did not create as much hype as it should have for being a big show:
Recently concluded Shireen Farhad had Farhan Saeed in the lead and it came and went without anyone even noticing:
Agar Tum Saath Ho also sufered with the same fate despite having trending couple Mawra Hocane and Ameer Gilani in the lead:
Looks like ARY Digital’s new show Biryani also did not generate as much buzz with its first episode. The views have been low. Let’s see how it evolves as episodes release:
Many new dramas are coming and going on channels especially on Hum TV but weak scripts are not letting them become big hits!
Saima Noor is a superstar of Pakistani film and drama industry. Her beauty, charisma and screen presence is unmatched after four decades of being in front of the camera. She is currently a fan favourite as Surraiya Amritsari in Main Manto Nahi Hoon. The way she is carrying the aura of her character alongside her own stardom is a treat to watch for her fans. She is still as beautiful, fit and stylish as she was when she started out in the industry.
Saima Noor still takes care of her looks and fitness. She works sporadically and she does not sign too many projects now. The actress has come back to the television with a bang and fans are in awe of her stardom and aura. She is still a gym rat and keeps herself fit and healthy.
A recent video of Saima Noor while she is exercising in the gym is going vial and everyone is getting fitness motivation:

She recently appeared in The 21 MM Show, hosted by Mathira. In the show, she shared her opinions about Sanam Saeed as an actor.
Talking about it, Parveen Akbar said, “Sanam Saeed is a very good actress, but I don’t know why she looks more like a boy than a girl to me — she has these tomboy vibes. Still, she is a very fine actress and a great artist, currently working on Manto.”
Talking about Sanam Saeed’s project Barzakh for Indian TV, she added, “I think she should focus on the script and her character, and not run after money. She must read the script and needs to be very careful about her character, she should know what they want us to portray in their dramas and films.”
Humayoun Ashraf is a multi-talented, popular and versatile Pakistani television and film actor who has established himself as a fine performer over the years, especially after delivering back to back hit dramas for popular TV channels. His notable dramas are Khuda Aur Muhabbat, Rang Mahal, Mere Damad, Intiqam, Sultanat, Ehsan Faramosh, Abh dekh Khuda kia kerta hey, Ik Tamana La Hasil Si, and Mushkil. Humayoun Ashraf got huge public and critical acclaim for his recent negative role in the recent hit drama serial Naqaab. Nowadays, fans are praising his acting in Hum TV’s drama serial Ilzam e Ishq.
Recently, Humayoun Ashraf appeared in Fuchsia Magazine’s interview along with his Ilzam e Ishq co actor. In the show, he talked about his opinion on women choosing financially stable men for themselves.
Talking about it, Humayoun Ashraf said, “Nowadays, love revolves around materialism — it has become calculated and practical which is right. Love today is materialistic, and marrying a stable guy is a very practical approach and it is absolutely okay. Anybody can reject me if I have no money, and she should. For example, if Maria asks me about a boy who doesn’t earn, I would give her practical advice to think carefully before marriage. Likewise, if any girl rejected me because of money, I wouldn’t mind, because she has her mindset. It is a fair thing, because if I were to find a match for my sister or cousin, I would also consider whether the boy earns or not.” Here is the link to the video:
Sanam Marvi is a celebrated Pakistani folk, classical, and playback singer who has made a significant mark in Sufi and folk music.

She began singing at a very young age and received training from her father, who was also a folk singer.
Sanam Marvi recently appeared on Madeha Naqvi’s morning show Subh Ka Samaa, which airs on Samaa TV. In the show, she addressed the criticism she has faced over performing Hajj and other Islamic pilgrimages being a singer.
Speaking about the trolling on religious worships, Sanam Marvi said, “Yes, this is the negative aspect of being a showbiz figure — everyone passes comments on you, even if their own life is at its lowest and they are going through hardships themselves. The most hurtful thing is when they say, ‘Oh, she has gone to perform Hajj? Now you will perform Hajj and Ziarats? The whole year she sings songs, and now she has gone for Hajj and Ziarats? Another thing they often ask, especially when after performing Hajj we resume singing, is, ‘Oh, so you’re singing again after Hajj?’ I mean, yes — it’s our profession, and we do it with devotion. I stay silent on such criticism and trolling; let their business run on it.” Here is the link to the video:

Recently, Nazlee appeared on Fuchsia Magazine’s YouTube show, hosted by Rabia Mughni. In the interview, she shared interesting details about the hit PTV drama Dhuwan.
Talking about it, Nazlee said, “Dhuwan was exciting and adventurous. We mostly did outdoor shoots, and it was freezing cold in Quetta—temperatures were below zero. I was wearing a simple shalwar kameez and fell down many times during the kidnapping scene, but it was fun. We enjoyed it a lot. Do you know I didn’t even know anything about Nabeel’s death sequence? The rest of the cast knew. It was Eid and I just filmed the scene where he was shot and I held him, and then it was cut. I went to Karachi for Eid, and later they shot the entire death sequence while I was in Quetta. I cried a lot after watching that scene—I was so sensitive. The other cast members knew because they were part of it.The funny thing about the drama was that it didn’t have a complete script. It was written on the spot and handed to us. That’s why it felt so natural and relatable.”

Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is a psychologist and a controversial television and internet personality. She is known for her very pro-men stances. Her stances actually become anti-women more often than not. She is a regular on many morning shows where she speaks about different mental health issues and gives advice on marriages and relationships.
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan was a guest on Qutb Online and she made some very controversial remarks regarding marital disputes and domestic violence.
Speaking about domestic violence Nabiha said, ” A man can never compromise on his ego and his salary. When a woman tries to reach either, he feels irritated. Se added a man, however wrong or abusive he is, will never slap his wife unless the dispute crecendos. When a woman says harsh words, the man will react back with harsh words and ultimately, he will slap the woman. Wives generally irritate their husbands in to beating them.”
This is what Dr Nabiha Ali Khan thinks after multiple cases of domestic violence have come up including against prominent women like Ayesha Jahanzeb and Jasmeen Manzoor:
The internet is on fire on Dr Nabiha’s remarks. One user said, “Looks like she has internalized abuse to be a normal thing. She was either a victim at some point or lived in a bubble where she did not encounter reality.” Another added, “Being a victim of domestic abuse, I find this woman disgusting.” One said, “What will happen when women like this will be raising men of the future.” This was he reaction:

I used to delay my prayers, until one day I was diagnosed with Choriocarcinoma — an aggressive form of cancer that spreads quickly. This rare cancer can develop after a molar pregnancy. I thought my life would go smoothly, but that wasn’t the case. The last four months have been very difficult for me and my family. I was fighting a rare cancer, and I didn’t want to share this journey with anyone because I was afraid people would judge me and say bad things about it. During this time, I had only two fears: how I would face my God and what would happen to my family. I urge you all to be regular with your check-ups. I am deeply thankful to my supportive family.”.

The Pakistani showbiz industry has experienced numerous notable fights and controversies over the years. From rivalries between actresses to clashes among prominent figures in the industry, each era has had its share of famous feuds that captured headlines, sparking much discussion among fans about these incidents.
From the golden era of old Lollywood, when film stars were like distant, mysterious constellations, to the current age of social media, where everyone seems overly exposed, we are continuously presented with significant stories of celebrity conflicts. Often, these disputes alter the entire landscape of the entertainment industry. Many stars stop collaborating, and some potentially major projects never come to fruition.
Below is a list of notable fights in the Pakistani showbiz industry:
Noor Bukhari & Sana Nawaz
Noor Bukhari and Sana Fakhar are not just the top actresses in Pakistani films. They are also related and cousins in real life. They have known each other throughout their lives, and unfortunately, they have locked horns before. A big fight broke out between the duo when Noor Bukhari married her current and first husband, Awn Chauhary, for the second time. Sana posted a scathing message against Noor. They later stopped airing their dirty laundry online, but things remained sour between the two.
Ali Zafar & Meesha Shafi
Ali Zafar and Meesha Shafi are also two big stars of Pakistani showbiz. They were engaged in a huge legal and social media war. It all started when Meesha Shafi accused Ali of sexual harassment in a tweet. The backlash for both stars was severe. They went on to fight a legal battle in court, which is still ongoing. They were friends and good colleagues before. This fight between the duo shook the whole industry and divided it into two camps.
Mahira Khan & Meera
Mahira Khan and Meera are two big names in Pakistani showbiz. Meera ruled the film industry in her time, while Mahira Khan is currently reigning in the entertainment industry. Meera was not happy with either Mahira’s acting chops or the way she conducted herself in the media. She kept criticizing her to the point that she was unhappy with Mahira Khan’s casting in The Legend of Maula Jatt. This is how Meera spoke of Mahira:
Mahira Khan & Khalil ur Rehman Qamar
Mahira Khan and Khalil ur Rehman Qamar are two big stars of the Pakistani showbiz. The duo worked together in the blockbuster classic Sadqay Tumharay, but things changed drastically after that. Khalil ur Rehman Qamar engaged in a war of words with Marvi Sirmed, and he got criticism from everyone, including Mahira Khan. He took this criticism to heart and repeatedly announced for years that he would never forgive Mahira. Although Mahira Khan stood by her statements for a long time, she recently mentioned that instead of tweeting about the issue, she should have called KRQ privately. KRQ’s thoughts on Mahira Khan:
Reema Khan & Meera
Reema Khan and Meera were two starlets who were ruling the Pakistani showbiz in the 90s. They were naturally competing and over the years have not been truly friendly. They have been in the race for No. 1 and called each other jealous. Things finally improved when Meera decided to attend Reema Khan’s wedding to Dr Tariq Shahab. They have since then been amicable towards each other.
Fahad Mustafa & Nida Yasir
Fahad Mustafa and Nida Yasir are once again two big names of Pakistani showbiz who do not see eye to eye. They are both in the ARY Digital camp, but they are never seen together. Nida once openly spoke about it and shared that Fahad Musatafa’s family and Yasir Nawaz’s family had a marriage that ended bitterly. This explains why they have never collaborated on any show or broadcast. Listen to what Nida revealed:
Atif Aslam & Goher Mumtaz
Atif Aslam and Goher Mumtaz started the band Jal. It became a massive hit, but they got into disagreements regarding the band’s management. Atif went on to join Bollywood and kept making music. He is currently one of the most successful musicians in the world. Goher Mumtaz ventured into acting while continuing to create music. The two have maintained a mostly amicable relationship, though Goher occasionally makes pointed remarks about his former bandmate. This is how Goher spoke about it:
Resham & Dr. Omer Adil
Resham and Dr. Omer Adil were once very close friends, but they experienced a bitter falling out. Resham called him hurtful names, and in response, Dr. Omer said some inappropriate things about her. Recently, Dr. Omer Adil has apologized to Resham and explained that their conflicts stemmed from conspiracies within their inner circle. He expressed his desire to prevent their feud from becoming a topic of discussion online. Here is what Dr. Omer Adil said:
Alizeh Shah & Minsa Malik
Alizeh Shah and Minsa Malik are two young names in the Pakistani showbiz industry. They were working together in a drama, Mohabbat Ki Akhari Kahani. They got into a huge fight on set, which resulted in FIRs and legal notices. Mina Malik slapped Alizeh Shah, and Alizeh threw her sandals at her head. Alizeh speaking about the whole ordeal:
Saba Qamar and Mahira Khan are undoubtedly the two leading female superstars of Pakistan. However, they have had a competitive relationship, and things haven’t always been amicable between them. The tension began when Mahira Khan performed a rap in which she questioned whether anyone else’s films could achieve a box office gross of 100 crores after her Bollywood film Raees crossed that milestone.
Saba Qamar responded strongly after her film, Hindi Medium, achieved remarkable success by grossing 300 crores. This financial milestone not only highlighted the film’s popularity but also served as a testament to her talent and hard work in the industry.
They are now on amicable terms and support each other’s success!

Last night, Young Stunners performed at a free concert at Rani Bagh in Hyderabad. There have been many times where mismanagement caused issues in concerts and it happened again. The space was not organized and the stage broke. People started pushing at each other and at one point, women were pulling each other’s hair.
The Internet is criticizing the public for what happened. One user said, “No ethics in Pakistani people.” Another added, “These people need to learn civic sense.” One said, “This is what happens at a free concert.” Here is what people thought:

Ken Doll aka Adnan Zafar has taken to Instagram and he has something to say about te whole situation.
Ken Doll said that people need to get a life. Why are they analyzing Hania Aamir so much. She was invited to an event and Asim Azhar who is a great singer was performing there. Instead of making it awkward, she started enjoying the show. What do people want to see. Should she have started crying in front of cameras.

Main Manto Nahi Hoon is a drama that has captivated the audience. The strong performances of the cast members is what has put the show on the map. Every artist is giving their hundred percent and every scene shows how much hard work was put in. With already strong names like Saima Noor, Sajal Aly, Asif Raza Mir and Babar Ali winning hearts, we now have Syed Mohammad Ahmed here to steal the show.
Mohammad Ahmed is playing Ifrah’s father. Ifrah played by Hajrah Yamin was Farhad’s girlfriend. She went missing and her father is going to every place possible to get to know about her whereabouts.

Fawad Khan is one of the biggest names in Pakistani entertainment. He has been very selective about his projects in Pakitan since he made it big with Humsafar. He has appeared in several dramas and a few movies including the highest grossing Pakistani film The Legend of Maula Jatt. He later appeared in Bollwyood films and worked in a few movies before a ban came on Pakistani artists working in India.
Fawad Khan was also banned from working in India after Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. He was all set to make his comeback opposite Vani Kapoor in the film Abir Gulaal after 9 years. The film was all set to release when Indo-Pak stand off happened in May and the film’s release was shelved. Fawad Khan also went through a huge backlash when he did not openly criticize India during the whole period. His co-star Vani Kapoor deleted all the pictures with him. There is an update now about Abir Gulaal after Hania Aamir’s Sardar Ji 3 and Imran Ashraf’s Enna Nu Rehan Sehna Ni Aaunda are being released.
A new update is in. The film will finally be released. Reportedly Abir Gulaal has been renamed as Aabeer Gulaal. It will be released like Sardaar Ji 3 all over the world except India. The film will hit the theatres on 29th August 2025. This is good news for Fawad Khan who had already wrapped up his film and was busy promoting it internationally.
Nadia Khan has words about Parwarish. The drama has started many debates amongst youngsters and parents. Tackling issues like bullying, unrealistic expectations of both parents and children, romance in teenage and career expectations, this drama has become talk of the town. Nadia is also impressed by the show largely but she has some words to express.
Nadia Khan was speaking about Parwarish. She shared that her daughter Alizeh is also an avid watcher of the show. When she is taking notes for review, she notices what her young daughter is relating to. She added that Alizeh shared peculiar details about Nauman Ijaz’s acting and asked her what was happening. In a very important scene, Nauman Ijaz was speaking to his brother and he was chewing gum. He seemed to be stammering a bit which Alizeh pointed out to her mom what uncle Nauman was doing.
Nauman Ijaz aka JB was discussing parenting with his brother Suleman in the scene.
This was the scene:
Here is what Nadia Khan thinks:
The internet is reacting to the whole review and they seem divided. One user said, “The scene was perfectly executed. JB had to look confused thus he gave these expressions.” Another added, “She is right. He looked drugged in those scenes.” One said, “Nadia criticizing Nauman Ijaz’s acting. What a time to be alive.” This is what people thought:
