He also talked about his conviction and faith in Allah that he will not die even if the plane will crash, during the last minutes. Zafar Masud said, “I don’t remember what happened during the last minutes but all I remember is that the last moments on the plane were chaotic, where all the air hostesses were in panic, they were reciting, every one was reciting and the plane was about to crash, I just fainted and woke up around people”.
Talking about what were his feelings, he said that he had that faith and conviction in Allah that he will survive through, not matter what will happen and same had happened. “I had this in my min that I will survive the crash, so when I woke up, I wasn’t surprised, obviously, I thanked Allah, I was in pain, my back was burnt, I was in gratitude, I requested the rescuers to handle me with care, they took me to ambulance with care. After reaching the hospital, I asked the nurse to dial me my mother’s number”, added Zafar Masud.
People are also coming up with their opinions after listening to his experience. A social media user wrote, “I personally know him, he’s a very kind and God fearing man who does a lot of charity”, another social media user wrote, “May Allah save all of us from such accidents, may Allah forgive us”.

He revealed that he was suggested by makers, the names of some established actors for the cast but he wanted actors who are young and actually of the age of those characters. This oushed him to cast Khushhal and Dananeer as leads.
This is what he shared:
He also revealed that he did not want to cast Khushhal Khan as Saim at first. He thought that his features looked too sharp for the character that he had in mind. But Khushhal surprised him by the work he has done on the character. He also asked him to keep a light beard which he did. Khushhal has now become a very loved Saim for the audience and people cannot imagine anyone else in the role.

Junaid Niazi is a new entrant in the industry. Starting his career as a model in the showbiz, he jumped into acting as he made his debut in Sinf e Aahan. He has since then been a part of many dramas and his recent Baby Baji was a sensation. Junaid Niazi also became a part of Pakistan’s biggest reality show Tamasha season 2 and became a finalist after playing a good game in the season.
Juniad is married to journalist Shajia Niazi and the couple has a beautiful daughter. He is a very emotional guy and he never cares about what the world might say as he cries when he feels like it even on live television. Junaid Niazi was the runner-up in Tamasha season 2 and he went to meet his Azra Bhabi aka Javeria Saud after coming out of the house and h became super emotional.
Here is Junaid breaking into tears on meeting Javeria Saud:
Fans think Junaid is involved in overacting and he is a cry baby. They think he cries a bit too much and are fed p of watching it. Here is what the internet has to say:
Yes congratulations to all Mein fans, Zaid and Mubashira are finally married and now they will raise more hell. Yes, we will keep seeing Mubashira as the bad guy due to her screaming episodes but she got short-changed one more time. First her ex-husband cheated on her and now her new husband is in love with another girl but still agreed to marry Mubashira. But all critiques aside, one thing Mein offers is opulence and super rich people who drink Evian in Pakistan. But it looks like only Ayeza Khan understood the assignment. Here is proof:
Ayeza Khan has worked on her look. This drama is showcasing class differences in Pakistan in a subtle way and the elite should at least look like the Pakistani elite. Ayeza Khan also got the bridal outfit right and she looked like a stunner. Many brides in the upcoming season are going to opt for the Mubashira look. She looked like a business tycoon’s daughter. This was Mubashira Jaffar in Zain Hashmi on her Nikkah:
Nothing in being not super-rich and wearing simple sustainable dresses in real life and people should not be wearing these outfits that cost millions but the character of Mubashira Jaffar should look the part which Ayeza did and Ayeza Khan you nailed it. Cut to the other super-rich family. Zaid is not middle class either and Mein fans know he went to Dubai just to have dinner at his favourite restaurant. Zaid’s sister Kashmala is getting married to Mubashira’s brother in the same ceremony and here is her bridal look:
Why is Kashmala Asif wearing such a cheap dress. Nothing against the dress but where are Asif Khan’s designers? Why did they not make a dress for his daughter? Why is Asif Khan wearing a more expensive sherwani than his daughter’s bridal dress at her wedding? Sabeena did not fit the scene and the environment that was created. And this has happened to Sabeena before.
THROWBACK TIME!
Sabeena Syed had a bridal look disaster before this in Hadiqa Kiani and Bilal Abbas Khan starrer Dobara. She looked like a confetti cake in that one too.
So, in conclusion all we can say is either designers and stylists are cheating Sabeena in bridal looks or Zaid and Kashmala are secretly middle class. What is your opinoon on this curious case of Mein’s bridal outfits?

The hue and cry over a soap serial is quite unheard of but ‘Mayi Ri’ has attracted a lot of it. The tagline ‘child marriage’ was tempting enough to be explored. It also piqued the viewers’ curiosity. The viewers have diverse opinions about this drama due to its content.
The Characters and Story
One cannot help but think of Dua Zehra who quite ignorantly could have become a victim of this. There, the parents played their role and saved the girl from ruining her life. In Mayi Ri it is unfortunately the other way around. Parents forcefully married the two teenage warring cousins and put them in a room to live together.
The leading young man Fakhir can easily be termed as a spoilt brat, who is a mediocre student, has a girlfriend, and is a little intimidated by his nerdy cousin whereas the only passion of the girl is her education. The plot seems to be divided into three phases. The first twenty episodes are about them getting married and eventually accepting their relationship out the train to an ultimate wreck. Annie comes from the background of an almost failed marriage of her parents and the father (literally giving a competition to the ‘abba’ of Zindagi Gulzar Hai) left the family to the care of his elder brother who is the father of Fakhir. His father is a typical patriarch-stern and concerned at the same time.
For the second leg of the serial they showed them getting closer. He seems to be winning over the girl with the least effort by supporting her education and protecting her from the wrath of her father. It sheds light on how men get more credit for the little or even basic they do in our society. Makers should be lauded for not sensationalizing the romance, yet a nuanced portrayal might have redeemed the ‘disconnect’ between the events as rightfully felt by the audience. However, it is communicated how the entitlement that comes as a married man at such young age, a little bit of trauma bonding with her former cousin cum friend, a savior complex with his now wife, and being isolated after his girlfriend dumped him, brings in that instinctual side of accepting and forwarding the relationship. After all, it is not a Tere Bin.
Does Mayi Ri Glorify Child Marriage?
Now for the ones alleging the drama of the glorification of child marriage or showing a young girl being knocked up is nothing but a kneejerk reaction. Have we all not seen a fully bloated girl sitting next to us in a matriculation or intermediate exam gasping for air? Don’t we all feel sympathy for her? As for the glorification, isn’t it done in the teenage romances on Netflix making youngsters yearn for some sneaky moments? A huge chunk of the audience started fawning over the two leads bickering and caring for each other as if this is a ‘Suno Chanda’. This cannot be. It’s a show having a haunting image of a bewildered child bride on the poster and child marriage is the ugly reality of our society where 18.9 million girls are married off before they turn 18. More than anything, it raises a question mark over the sensibility of the audience. Are they just going to give in to two pretty faces on screen? It cannot be denied that the chemistry was more fueled by the pictures of leads showing off their warm friendship in the BTS. That could have been managed well by the production house so the narrative does not lose its impact. Choosing age-appropriate actors really did the part and added authenticity to the portrayal.
His reverting to his original careless self and escaping the situations after knowing the ‘good news’ is the most realistic reaction predicted to be shown in the last leg. Having a friend, a fellow victim by your side is a bonus in the toughest of circumstances but the boy was neither educated about the practical side of marriage nor about the whole process of raising a child. It is his conditioning and so in the character of him to find an escape from responsibility as huge as this. Annie on the other hand is already mature and childbearing will make her more practical and lonely like most girls and women in our society. This is the reality that hits home with this drama. This is not just a classic case of a forced early marriage where out of the two victims, the woman suffers more but also a depiction of a despicable union made in a male-dominated, orthodox, and illiterate household. Here the elders think that if they had done it, so will the next of kin without giving a thought to the lifelong impacts.
Closing Remarks
A soap is a longer format of story-telling and to fulfill its requirements there is endless family politics which at some points is tiring and exhausts the subject in Mayi Ri too. It’s not a ‘Rehaai’ of Kashf Foundation which got too dark to bear. It’s a journey of some characters that are palatable at some points in spite of being painful, giving insights into what we turn our gaze away from and into what could have been the best alternative. In short, it is real. While Fakhir, insists on staying in his boy mood, running away from his responsibilities and realities of life, it is in Annie one sees a silver lining. Her grit to break this vicious cycle of backwardness and the passion to burn midnight’s oil to achieve what she wants, against all odds, is palpable even through the screen. Posing a mirror to the masses and still grabbing their attention is the biggest win for the drama and the team should be appreciated for that.

The gorgeous and brilliant Pakistani television actor Ayeza Khan is currently starring in Ary Digital’s popular drama series “Mein” as Mubashira, Mubashira is a strong-headed woman who is also dealing with mental health issues. Wahaj Ali is paired alongside her as the male lead actor. The show features Mubashira’s life journey who is going through the trauma of divorce. Zanjabeel Asim Shah penned the script, Badar Mehmood is the director of the show. The ensemble cast includes Ayeza Khan, Wahaj Ali, Azekah Daniel, Aijaz Aslam, Usman Peerzada, Agha Mustafa Hassan and others.
The drama serial Mein is grabbing huge number of views and fans are praising Ayeza Khan and Wahaj Ali’s performances, however, some “Mein” fans have expressed the opinion that Ayeza Khan doesn’t quite fit in the role of the narcissist and snobbish Mubashira. They believe Ayeza Khan excels more in portraying innocent characters. These fans have also critiqued her styling in the show.
Here’s a list of actresses fans suggest might have been a better fit for the role of Mubashira:
1.Sarah Khan
Sarah Khan is the first choice of “Mein” fans. Fans are of the view that Sarah Khan nailed her character “Miraal” in drama serial “Sabaat” and she can ace the character of discourteous and snobbish Mubashira. A lot of fans suggested Sarah Khan’s name as Mubashira because they are imagining her in the drama. Fans also said that she will look good with Wahaj Ali.
2.Saba Qamar
A few fans also said that Saba Qamar could have been another good choice for the character of Mubashira as she has the ability to portray any kind of difficult character with excellence and she also has the bossy attitude and looks.
3. Durefishan Saleem
A few fans are of the view that Durefishan Saleem can also perform Mubashira’s character better than Ayeza Khan. Durefishan Saleem is currently appearing in Jaisay Aapki Marzi and fans are liking her acting in the drama.
4. Ushna Shah
Mein fans also said that Ushna Shah has the looks, tone and the accent to pull off the character of Mubashira in a better way.
Ayeza Khan as Mubashira
