Gul Mehar took some power in her hands in Zanjeerain. She told Torsum that she loves him and does not want to see him destroy himself. She went on to add that Zafran Khan has used Torsum and that Torsum’s men did not kill Sherdil. She also advised him to not get angry or emotional and navigate this plot with his brain.

Maulana Tariq Jamil is a renowned Pakistani religious scholar who is admired by followers of various Islamic schools of thought (fiqhs). He is primarily known for his sermons focusing on kindness, maintaining balanced relationships, and Islamic values. He also continues to inspire people from various professions, including showbiz, digital media, business, and politics. Maulana Tariq Jamil shared a cordial relationship with Junaid Jamshed and played an important role in his religious transformation.
Recently, during Dr. Affan Qaiser’s podcast, Maulana Tariq Jamil discussed Junaid Jamshed’s remarkable transformation in detail.
Maulana Tariq Jamil said, “Junaid Jamshed was a top star in 1997—the handsome, tall, successful, top-notch singer. No one in Pakistan had come like him. I met him through someone, and during our ten-minute meeting, he cut me off in the middle and asked me a question. He said, ‘I have the glamour that every Pakistani dreams of, but my heart is empty. I feel I am a boat with no destination.’ These were the words of a man who had achieved all the worldly success. Allah created means for him, and he became religious. Allah gave him martyrdom, money, and whatnot. He used to say that what Allah gave him after becoming religious was something he had never experienced during his singing career. See, Allah blessed him with martyrdom.”
Maulana Tariq Jamil further recalled, “I gave him an example much earlier that you are giving medicine to the wrong wound. You are searching for peace in glamour, but you will find peace in Allah. So, for the first time, he went for Tabligh in 2002.”
He added that Junaid Jamshed experienced immense peace during his first Tabligh trip. Maulana also added, “This generation does not know what true peace is”. Here is the link to the video:
Umera Ahmed is a renowned Pakistani novelist and drama writer, best known for her popular novels Peer-e-Kamil, Man-o-Salwa, Thora Sa Aasman and Zindagi Gulzar Hai. Her notable television dramas include Durr-e-Shehwar, Alif, Daam, Maat, Kankar and several others. Recently, fans have been praising her drama series Aap Ki Izzat, which has captivated audiences with its sensational and relatable storyline.
Umera Ahmed enjoys a huge fan following among novel readers, many of whom love her work and often create pictorial depictions of scenes and characters from her novels on social media. The writer has appreciated fans for showering love on her work, but she appears to be unhappy with the increasing use of AI-generated visuals to depict scenes from her novels, particularly religious and spiritual content such as Peer-e-Kamil.
Taking to her official Instagram account, Umera Ahmed shared a message requesting fans and content creators not to create or share AI-generated visuals based on her work.
She wrote, “Dear Readers, “We are truly grateful for your tremendous love and support for Umera Ahmed’s novels. We have been noticing a lot of AI-generated images, videos, and reels trying to depict scenes, characters, and dialogues from the novels. We kindly ask all the content creators and pages to not generate or share any AI visuals of Umera Ahmed’s work. It is a very personal experience that literature cultivates within you when you read a novel, and AI content deprives you of that deep connection. Especially in the case of Peer-e-Kamil (s.a.w.), we feel that no one should dilute the beauty and sanctity of such a deep, sensitive, and spiritual tale through AI visuals. We value the tremendous creativity and energy that goes into developing and running these wonderful pages. But it would be a great shame if people started diluting the beautiful words of Umera Ahmed. Let the magic of her words touch you and everybody else, just the way it is meant to.” Read her post here:
Umera Ahmed’s readers are appreciating her stance on the AI generated visuals of her novels. Many loved her warning in a polite tone. Read the comments:

When Ahmed Ali Butt asked her, “Has anyone ever hit on you?” Sabahat Bukhari replied, “What do you mean by ‘hit on me’? Many colleagues have hit on me, many have praised me, and I take it as a compliment because healthy flirting is very good. We keep that on set as it boosts your energy to work. You gel well with your co-actors, and you become friendly. It adds to your chemistry, but I think healthy flirting is good. The best compliment I have received is that my energy is very positive.” Watch here:
She further added that she is not a flirtatious person, but if she finds a co-actor or another person good-looking and positive, she compliments them wholeheartedly.
Maulana Tariq Jamil is one of Pakistan’s renowned and influential Islamic scholars and public speakers, widely recognized for his gentle preaching style. A Punjab-born celebrity, Maulana Tariq Jamil initially pursued pre-medical studies at King Edward Medical College before turning toward Tabligh.
Recently, Maulana Tariq Jamil was interviewed by Dr. Affan Qaiser for his YouTube channel. During the podcast, Maulana Tariq Jamil discussed how the growing trend of women not cooking for their families at home is unhealthy.
Replying to Dr. Affan Qaiser’s question regarding women not cooking at home, Maulana Tariq Jamil said, “If it is the case that modern women have stopped cooking, then it is a very unnatural thing. In 1998, I visited the USA, and a doctor showed me statistics from North America indicating that people had spent one trillion dollars on antidepressants in one year. That was back in 1998; imagine the situation today. This happens when we start eating unnatural and artificial food. Artificial food affects your natural behavior. If people rely on fast food, it can cause mood swings, increase anger, and reduce patience. The relationship between husband and wife can suffer, and their fights may increase. After eating such an unhealthy diet, men can lose their energy, health, and vitality. Why are there advertisements on every wall in Pakistan offering men ways to increase their sexual ability? Eat desi ghee, avoid junk food, eat desi food, and stop using cooking oil. We are lucky to have desi ghee at homes”
He further added, “So, if the stoves at home have been turned off, it is a direct invitation to diseases and this trend has been giving a good business to doctors. Bakery item and breads are so unhealthy and dangerous”.
A heartbreaking tragedy in Karachi has shaken the public. A 17-year-old boy, who was reportedly the cousin of the 1.5-year-old girl, allegedly took the child outside on the pretext of taking her for a walk and sexually assaulted her. The child was brought back in deteriorating condition, after which the little girl lost her life during treatment. According to the medical report, she had allegedly been subjected to sexual assault. Police arrested the suspect from his home, and further investigation is underway.
The incident has left the public deeply shocked and devastated. Aiman Khan, Mishi Khan, Ahsan Khan, Mariyam Nafees, and many other celebrities have condemned the heinous crime.
Mishi Khan has raised her voice and condemned the incident. She said, “God forbid, what’s happening. A 17-year-old neighbor took a 1.5-year-old to the market and subjected her to sexual assault. She was brought back in a deteriorated condition, after which she passed away. It’s unbelievable that such crimes are prevailing in our country just because there are no punishments for such criminals. Such criminals should be publicly punished and hanged. It is happening because there are no restrictions on porn content. I hope the Sindh government takes action on it.”
Mariyam Nafees also said that parents should not leave their children alone:
Ahsan Khan also shared stories and tagged Sindh govt.
Aiman Khan has also shared the story in her Instagram account , she wrote, What’s happening in the country, it’s time to start punishing these rapists’ . Read here:
Social media users are also of the view that parents today need to be extremely careful. They believe parents should avoid sending their children with strangers and should remain vigilant about their children’s safety.Many users wrote that they teach their teenage boys to maintain appropriate boundaries with younger children and not touch them unnecessarily. Others said that joint families can sometimes be a curse, as children may be mistreated by family members in different ways.
Aik Mohabbat Aur is a drama with a big star cast and a good storyline. The show has been under scrutiny from the very first episode, however, it has also received love for how they have shown very positive lead characters. It marked the comeback of Faiza Iftikhar on television as a writer while the director is Farooq Rind.
Faiza Iftikhar is a star writer and in addition to Aik Mohabbat Aur, she has written dramas like Aangan, Dillagi and many more. Farooq Rind has also been the man behind shows like Pyar Ke Sadqay and Ishq Murshid. This time the tone of the story and execution are not matching up. Fans have been complaining about editing as well. Now, the writer herself is calling out the director through her social media.
Faiza Iftikhar is apparently not seeing the vision she had of her script on the screen. She posted a cryptic message ” Aglay janam mujhe director na kijiyo.” Fans were quick to connect it to Aik Mohabbat Aur. This is what she had written:
The internet is reacting to Faiza’s dig at Farooq Rind. One person wrote, “Agree. Director just makes Ahad dance in every scene or he is baby sitting all the time.” Another added, “Editing is also bad. I can’t understand if its real or in thought.” One went, “It looks Korean and unnecessary.” This was the reaction:
Abbas Ashraf is the brother of superstar Imran Ashraf. He started his career with ads and later shifted to dramas.

She even prayed in Makkah that he does not become an actor but it was his destiny. He further revealed that he wanted his brother to help his career in the beginning but Imran Ashraf refused.

One said, “She looks like Wednesday Addams or Mavis from Hotel Transylvania.” Another added, “She looks gorgeous.” One went, “She looked so good in Zanjeerain. What is this now?”. One thought, “She looks like a churail.” This is the reaction:
Aik Mohabbat Aur is a drama airing on Green TV which has caught the audience attention for its positive and slow burn romance. Ahad Raza Mir and Maya Ali as Haroon and Khushbakht have brought a mature romance to the screens. The show has brought many great topics including narcissism, second chance at love and stigma of divorce to light.
Haroon has been a straight shooter in Aik Mohabbat Aur since the very beginning. He told Khushi about his love, married her, trusted her and took his daughter as his own. But Khushbakht has been skeptical and she is taking her sweet time in admitting her feelings. But the latest episode finally brought a sweet confession.

Anas has still not told Ansa how Shayan is the one who targeted her in Bas Tera Saath Ho. She is getting hysterical due to the AI video but he wants her to let it go. Meanwhile he has given up on family business and he does not want Ansa to work either. He is also intefering in Shehreen’s life and inviting her issues into his life.
This is how Anas is reacting to Ansa’s quest for truth:
Bas Tera Saath Ho fans are annoyed by the latest episodes. They are neither liking Anas nor the unnecessary dragging of the story. One person wrote, “Anas is pathetic for not telling truth to Ansa and giving up on his business shares.” Another added, “They are dragging the story so much that we are more interested in Fahaam and Shehreen.” One said, “Anas has zero skills, zero confidence but ego is K2 level.” This is the reaction:

Aap Ki Izzat is a hit Pakistani drama that is gaining widespread critical and public acclaim. So far, HUM TV has aired six episodes, which have collectively amassed around 20 million views. The drama has also received remarkable TRP ratings. Written by acclaimed Pakistani writer Umera Ahmed, Aap Ki Izzat is produced by Nina Kashif and Momina Duraid and directed by Saifee Hassan. The drama features Ahsan Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Urwa Hocane, Sania Saeed, and Nauman Masood in key roles.
Recently, Ahsan Khan, who is playing Tabish in Aap Ki Izzat, appeared on Something Haute’s show Haute Talk, hosted by Hassan Chaudhry. During the show, he talked about accepting Aap Ki Izzat, working with Urwa Hocane, and the criticism surrounding his character Tabish.
Talking about how Aap Ki Izzat came to him, Ahsan Khan said, “I was first offered it by Nina because it’s her production or initiative. Then I spoke to Momina Bhabhi. When I met Momina and Duraid, they were happy that I was back on HUM. The best thing about them is they make you feel so comfortable that you can’t say no. I was also a fan of Saifee. I say this on record because it’s a dream of every actor to work with a sensitive director like him. The detailing he gave to the story made it stand out. The script was also magical; it hooked me. I would like to mention Umera Ahmed—how is it possible that a Umera Ahmed script doesn’t hook you? The whole team made it what it looks like on screen now, from the actors to the makeup team and the director.” Watch here:
Talking about the criticism he has received for playing Tabish, Ahsan Khan said, “I have been verbally abused by people over Tabish, literally. If I can say, I read a comment where someone called me ‘haramzada.’ I was laughing at it because he wrote it for Tabish, but still, I thought this is getting too much. At least don’t abuse or curse. Also, I won’t say I performed good because I have always been hard on myself. I barely say that I did a good job, but I laugh at criticism. I also say it myself, ‘What a cheap man Tabish is.’”
Talking about working with Urwa Hocane again, Ahsan Khan said, “I met Urwa after years. Although, I have worked with Urwa in three projects; this is the fourth. I had always seen depth in her work. She worked with me in Marasim, Udaari, and Meri Laadli. In Udaari, she did a wonderful job. She works less by her own choice. She has so many layers. She has worked hard on this role and has made a comeback after years. She could have chosen a glamorous role, but she chose a role where she had to wear sweaters and bodysuits under suits, had to show a double chin, wear no makeup, and portray a woman with grown-up children.”
Pakistani celebrities, like celebrities all over the world, are a part of the news cycle, not just for their work and projects but also for the statements they make. A star is loved for their positivity and humility, and they receive criticism if they propagate negativity constantly. Kangana Ranaut, from Bollywood, is a classic example of a star who gained support for their right stances in the beginning, but ended up becoming a joke for repeatedly criticising everyone all the time.
Many of our Pakistani stars have joined the same bandwagon. They only become a part of the news cycle and get noticed when they say something negative about their colleagues. Many of these names had great credibility among the public, but they have lost it due to their constant negativity. Here is a list of Pakistani celebrities who have lost their reputation over the years due to their criticism of others:
Firdous Jamal
Firdous Jamal was hands down a legend of the Pakistani television industry. From Man Chalay Ka Sauda to Pyare Afzal, the actor was always a fan and industry favourite, and he was known to show versatility and pick unique characters. However, something really went wrong as he was a guest on Faysal Quraishi’s morning show. He called Mahira Khan “an old hag” who should not be working as a heroine. This started an industry-wide boycott against him. He never apologised and doubled down on this new tirade as he started criticising Humayun Saeed and later even his old colleagues like Talat Hussain, Rahat Kazmi, Abid Ali, and Khyam Sarhadi, many of whom have passed away.
His fight with his wife of many decades, as well as his sons, also landed in public space and made life miserable for them. All of this combined made him lose his superstar status and credibility that he once held in the eyes of the audience.
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar is one of the most successful names of the Pakistani showbiz industry. He is hands down the most successful writer in the industry, and he had a huge following due to his writing as well as his initial television appearances. But things went downhill when he started to appear in too many interviews. From his crusade against feminists to criticising stars like Mahira Khan, who called him out, he landed in multiple controversies. He even criticised a star like Saba Qamar for her award show outfits.
He unfortunately became news for being honey-trapped as well, and now he has a lot more haters in and out of his industry than he has fans.
Nadia Khan
Nadia Khan was known as the ultimate queen and pioneer of the Pakistani morning shows. She went on a break, and she later made a comeback in acting and hosting. She has now become a drama reviewer with Kya Drama Hai, and her dramatic antics have become her enemy. She often crosses a line as she rates the work of her own colleagues on the show. She has mocked them, has done parodies of their characters, and she can certainly be harsh with her words.
Nadia Khan is known more for her hosting skills and less for her acting, and thus any criticism coming from her ends up damaging her own credibility.
Fahad Mustafa
Fahad Mustafa is one of the biggest stars in the country. As an actor and a producer, he has made a presence which cannot be paralleled. The superstar also became a household name after he started hosting Jeeto Pakistan a decade ago. But he recently shocked the public when he could not handle simple advice from Atiqa Odho, who asked him to star with heroines of his age category, instead of young girls like Hania Aamir. He ended up making ageist comments against Atiqa Odho and asked her to get plastic surgery if she wants to work with him. The hateful comment made the audience call him out, and he had to lay low after the controversy as his films were being released.
Sangeeta
Sangeeta is a veteran of the Pakistani entertainment industry. She is an actress, director, and producer, and she made big hits in the film industry back in the day. She has also worked with many young names like Danish Taimoor and Aliya Ali, and she has built a camaraderie with them. Sangeeta has lately been making loose statements that have shocked everyone. First, she outed Saud Qasmi and Meera’s affair after years, when Saud is a father of two grown-up kids. She recently badmouthed Naeema Butt for giving her suggestions for her upcoming film Mukho, a project that is already gaining attention for not-so-good reasons.
Iqrar Ul Hassan
Iqrar Ul Hassan was once the most loved anchor in the news industry. His Sar e Aam won the love of the audience, and the way he was taking on people was what fans wanted to see him do all his life. But he decided to join politics, and he has since been targeting some people with a mega fan following. His stunt at the airport, where he started fighting an FIA officer, also went viral. His three marriages and problematic statements are not helping his credibility, and he has become extremely polarising for fans.
Dr Omer Adil
Dr Omer Adil is another Pakistani celebrity who has been a household name. From hosting shows about music and film on PTV to private networks, he was always known for being highly cultured and sophisticated. His YouTube career, however, brought another side of him in front of the world. His constant criticism and call-outs of the stars like Resham, Bushra Ansari, and even Madam Noor Jahan’s past have damaged his old image. He is still going strong, and he keeps appearing on different podcasts.

Sania Saeed is widely regarded as one of Pakistan’s most phenomenal actors, admired for her naturalistic and emotionally nuanced performances. Her hit PTV classic dramas include Aahat, Sitara Aur Mehrunissa, Zaib-un-Nisa, Raqeeb Se, Aao Kahani Bunty Hain, Sang-e-Mar Mar, Sang-e-Mah, and many more. Sania Saeed is also a committed philanthropist and social activist who is passionate about charitable work. Nowadays, fans are praising her performance in Aap Ki Izzat, Bombay Tailors and Dar E Nijat.
Recently, Sania Saeed appeared on Vasay Chaudhry’s show Gup Shup, where she opened up about her relationship with veteran actor Samina Ahmed and recalled sharing the screen with her in Aahat.
Talking about Samina Ahmed, Sania Saeed said, “I used to travel by train to Lahore for theatre festivals. I didn’t have a place to live, nor did I have money, so Abbu told me, ‘There is no issue, as Samina is there.’ I said to him, ‘You just assumed that I can live with her; you didn’t even ask her.’ To which my father said, ‘It’s okay, I will talk to her.’ “I used to live with her and enjoy the whole festival. I received so much love and protection from my seniors. I want to pass the same on to the juniors. So, these are our teachers and institutions. And what a courageous woman she is. She just decided one day that, ‘Now I have raised and settled my kids all alone. Let them do things on their own. I have found a good man, I am getting married and moving on.’ Remarkable, amazing woman. I love her so much.” Watch here:
She further added, “I started my career with her through Aahat, but I knew her because of theatre, because she was the art director at Rafi Peer. Rafi Peer was our institution. These people were our teachers.” Here is the link to the video:
Atiqa Odho is an extremely elegant and phenomenal Pakistani actor who has appeared in numerous hit serials, including classics such as Sitara Aur Mehrunissa, Nijat, Dasht, and Humsafar. Fans have also loved her performances in Besharam, Kaisi Teri Khudgharzi, Pyar Ke Sadqay, and Dao. More recently, she has impressed viewers with her appearances in drama serials such as Neeli Kothi and Dr Bahu. Nowadays, Atiqa Odho is co-hosting Kya Drama Hai, and viewers are loving her presence on the show.
In a recent episode of Kya Drama Hai, Atiqa Odho opened up about what she considered a miscasting issue in Darke Nijat, particularly Saba Hamid playing Faran Tahir’s mother.
Talking about it, Atiqa Odho said, “The casting is fantastic except for the fact that I don’t understand how Saba Hameed can play the role of Faran Tahir’s mother. It was not making sense. Of course, we can play any character as actors, like Sania is also playing Ahsan’s mother, but because another drama Bus Tera Saath Hu is airing parallel to Dar E Nijat where they are playing husband and wife, that’s why it was not digesting [well]. To me, it’s unacceptable. I don’t know about others, but I can’t see it. Also, Saba till date is a chic, stylish and beautiful woman who doesn’t look like a Nani or Dadi. She looked unrealistic; her look was forced, as she is not a Nani-Dadi woman. This thing stuck with me while watching the show.” Here is the link to the video:
Sunny Deol is a renowned Bollywood actor who has been appearing in Indian films for decades. His timeless classics include Ghayal, Damini, Border, and Gadar: Ek Prem Katha.

Social media users are praising Sunny Deol for his respect for Pakistan, with many adding that he responded to the question in a mature way.

Aap Ki Izzat is a new drama which started airing on Hum TV. The drama is written by Umera Ahmed and directed by Saif e Hassan. The show managed to win the audience in its very first episode and fans are loving it overall. However, Sania Saeed playing Ahsan Khan’s mother was a casting choice that came under scrutiny. The lead actor has addressed it in his interview with Ambreen Fatima.
Ahsan Khan shared his point of view on Sania Saeed playing his mother in Aap Ki Izzat. The actor praised Sania and said that she is a phenomenal actress and surprisingly thet have never worked together in any project before this.

When I came back after my divorce, I didn’t want my parents to bear my expenses because it could be unfair to them as they were old. I started offering people services for designing clothes, home décor, and stuff. Luckily, it didn’t take more than three months before I got an offer from Nina Kashif. Although my family wasn’t comfortable with me joining showbiz, I had to be independent and make my own living. I came into showbiz and got settled. Yes, initially, I was getting fewer projects, but it was sufficient. Although I had my schooling abroad, all my experiences as an independent girl were undone after what I experienced in my marriage, so it didn’t benefit me much. I started on my own from scratch.” Watch here:

Talking about it, he said, “Now, at this time, our competition is directly with Netflix series. Globally, it is giving competition to Netflix. Like a free-to-air drama (Pakistani drama) is compared with a Netflix series. Our drama will make a maximum of 20 crore if it’s highly successful, while an Indian series on Netflix that is made in 40 crores is being compared to that. Then you see Pakistani dramas’ views on YouTube and ask Netflix what the views of their super-hit series are. One episode of ours will be way above then the views of their whole series. That means our drama is being loved worldwide. You can compare our actor to any actor in the world. If it’s not the competition, then why isn’t India opening Pakistani dramas for Netflix? Because they want their content to grow; their narrative is to support their content and people.” Watch here:
