NAMAZ E JANAZA :
Tomorrow AFTER NAMAZ e Jumma (1 pm) AT MASJID E AISHA, Bahria Town, KARACHI.
Abid Ali was a great Actor, born in Quetta, he was a recipient of the prestigious Presidential Award. He has three daughters, including model Iman Ali. He has left a widow too, (senior actress Rabia Naureen) .
We are grieved and devastated on such a huge loss, not only for his family but for Pakistan. All of his fans were sending a lot of their prayers to him in this short time.
The actor touched heights of fame through Amjad Islam Amjad’s play Waris. He worked in various dramas and movies ever since. He is known for his spectacular performance in ARY Digital’s Tootay Huay Taaray .
We urge you all to pray for the higher ranks of our truly beloved actor who has given a lot of name and respect to Pakistan.
We are proud of him and may Allah bless him with the highest ranks up there .
Hira Mani, the star of blockbuster drama serial Do Bol has reached the level of popularity and fame in a very short span of time. Even though Hira Mani started off as her husband Mani’s co-host and also worked alongside him in sit-coms every now and then, she had started taking her acting career seriously in recent years. Hira Mani has worked in some of the hit dramas and ever since her debut as a lead in Hum Tv’s Preet Na Kariyo Koi, Hira Mani has been on the road to success.
Hira Mani has come a long way, not only in terms of her acting and career choices, but also in terms of styling and carrying herself. Hira Mani makes sure to reflect her personal style and adds that touch in all the outfits that she wears for public appearances that she makes. Over the years, Hira Mani has spoken passionately about her love for sarees and she makes it evident when she clothes herself in sarees on special events as well as her appearances on different TV shows. Just like Hira Mani adds her personal touch in every other outfit that she wears, she has her own way of carrying sarees too. Hira Mani’s sarees are not too formal and she usually goes for sarees wearing them in a casual manner but she always adds that touch of quirk to them.
Hira Mani’s saree styling has brought all kinds of attention to her. When Hira Mani wears sarees, she definitely goes all out and doesn’t hold back in showing her skin. Hira Mani is an assertive woman and that is why she carries whatever she wears confidently but it does make one wonder whether her saree styling is trendy or tacky. It is good to see her having a personal spin on her attires usually but when it comes to sarees, even though there are no rules, it does require that certain grace and charm while carrying it in order to look beautiful and shine in all its glory. Hira Mani’s twists on sarees might have made them seem far more easy-to-wear and accessible sort of an ensemble but to see her pairing them with dress and T-shirts, or cutting the lengths short, takes away the beauty that saree adds to a woman’s personality. Hira Mani usually likes to drape the pallu of her saree from back to the front and it seems that florals are her go-to prints when it comes to wearing sarees. (thewriteofyourlife.org)
Let’s take a look at Hira Mani’s sarees and you decide if they are trendy or tacky?
Those Rare Times When She Did Look Nice In a Saree:
Ohkay so, this episode of Khaas covered the moment where Saba lost her patience with Ammar for the very last time. Saba has had enough & now, there’s nothing that Ammar’d say or do that will affect her anymore because she is totally done with him & for good. This episode of Khaas also showed how Saba was getting pressurized by her family & everyone was of the opinion that Saba was in the wrong.
Saba Is Done With Ammar:
Ammar once again made it all about Saba, in front of his own parents & Saba’s parents too. Ammar is manipulative but more than that he is very smart. This one has to be given to Ammar that he knows how to deal with people the way they like to be dealt with, but that too only when he feels that the other person won’t ever question his image or judgment. With Saba, Ammar couldn’t do that because he learnt it in the initial days of their marriage that Saba was not smitten by him as much as he wanted to, plus she was not someone who’d buy the lies that Ammar told her. Saba demanded respect & Ammar could not give that to her. For Ammar, the thing that triggered him against Saba the most was the fact that Saba could see through him & not only that, she’d call him out on those things too. Anyhow, Ammar let Saba’s father Faraz know for the very last time that he was thinking of divorcing Saba, not because he wanted to, but only because this is what Saba wanted. Ammar has once again played his cards well. Ammar knows that Faraz trusts him more than he trusts his own daughter Saba, that is why for the very last time, he yet again planted a seed of doubt in Faraz’s heart against Saba & walked away scot-free!
Saba’s sister Samreen & her husband depicted the usual & typical first reaction family members have towards their sister or daughter getting divorced. They all held Saba responsible, not for her failing marriage but also for Faraz’s condition too. Saba’s sister did try to hide everything but then her husband couldn’t stop judging Saba & her character. It was like he got an excuse to blame his wife & her entire family for what was happening because he was kind of tired listening to the stories based on assumptions about the ideal couple both Saba & Ammar were, plus the picture perfect life that they were leading together.
Saba spoke to Ammar for the last time & more than that, she got to give him a piece of her mind too. Saba also got to see who was the girl Ammar was getting married to & she could totally see that this marriage between the two was going to be a disaster. Ammar could not see Saba in her eyes, as he himself knows that he is wrong but is just getting away with everything by using her as a scapegoat because Saba is not as clever or manipulative as Ammar is. Ammar thinks things will work out for him but he has no idea what he is going to get into.
On Ammar’s family side, it was nice to see Farah’s husband being the only voice of reason. At least he was honest enough to let everyone know that Saba couldn’t be this wrong & she could not do something as horrendous as cheating on her husband. Even Ammar’s father Saud was kind of trying to connect the dots that may be because Ammar wanted to get married to Salma (something that Saba was accusing him of), he created this entire scenario to get rid of Saba, but then again, no one in the family can doubt Ammar because the ladies such as Kanwal & Ammar’s pupho are fully convinced that Ammar is infallible & that he is victim in this situation because his marriage fell apart. I am keen to see the reality that Salma will show to everyone in this family. Javeria wanted to help Saba but her hands were tied & even then Saba understood her awkward position but still she hoped that Javeria would at least once speak to her parents to let them know that Saba was with her & not with Fakhir.
Closing Thoughts – Simple Story Executed Brilliantly:
I am glad that the story has moved forward & that Ammar is going to free Saba from this cage. I obviously don’t have a lot of expectations from Faraz, but for once, it would be nice to see him at least believing his own daughter & not a guy like Ammar who has only lied to him blatantly, time & again. It is interesting to see how simple story has been executed with so much complexity & that there is so much depth & dimension in every single situation. Khaas surely is a very unique & interesting drama to tune to & it is amazing to see that it is still going strong. I must say, Ali Rehman has given Ammar’s character a perfect treatment & I don’t think any other actor could’ve done justice to this twisted character the way he has. Ali Rehman has made Ammar’s character very convincing. Hira Tareen is perfect as Salma, someone who is totally selfish & self-centered. Sanam Baloch, Haroon Shahid & all the other supporting actors have done a great job too. I think the credit definitely goes to the director Danish Nawaz for extracting this kind of acting from all the actors & giving these characters & their personalities so much clarity on-screen. Job well done. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Khaas.
Live shows can sometimes bring out the most unexpected aspects of people’s personalities. Waseem Badami nowadays is known more for his bouncers and Googlys on his talk show than anything else. His hard-hitting questions most often take his guests by surprise but Sajid Hassan was definitely not one of those guests on his show.
Waseem Badami took Sajid Hassan’s permission before asking one such question about the condition of his hair since almost a year back, Sajid Hassan’s video went viral in which he warned people against a doctor who did not know how to do a hair transplant but he was practicing and there was no one who could question him.
Waseem Badami most certainly was not expecting to get the kind of response he got when he asked the question. Sajid Hassan was angry and blunt. He said that no one bothered asking him how he was doing when he was fighting for his life.
Sajid Hassan said that the fact was that when people like Waseem Badami wanted to invite a guest, they get in contact with celebrities otherwise no one really looks out for anyone in the industry. Sajid Hassan also said that there are some groups of celebrities who look out for each other, otherwise everyone is on their own.
Waseem Badami tried to ignore these comments as a joke but Sajid Hassan made it clear that he was not joking. Sajid Hassan verbally abused Waseem Badami for asking an inappropriate question and for not bothering to even visit him when he was going through hell. The channel had to censor some of the words he said.
My initial reactions – is it a 6th September special? Is it a telefilm or is it a movie?! Oh wow! It is a serial!! Yes! Because this time around HUM did not promote a drama with a star cast the way it usually does, the reason being that Ehd-e-Wafa isn’t just an MD productions project but after a long time ISPR has co-produced a television play. After watching the refreshing promos of Ehd-e-Wafa all the viewers out there who have watched Sunehery Din and Alpha Bravo Charlie must have been reminded of the time when dramas focused on much more than marital abuse, jealousy and extra marital affairs.
A Nice Surprise
Usually when a drama like Ehd-e-Wafa is in the pipeline, the production houses and the cast members start promoting the drama sometimes years before it goes on air – Alif and Aangan are recent examples of such hyped up promotions. This time around, the viewers were introduced to Ehd-e-Wafa for the first time through the promos which is definitely the reason why the first impressions and the overall excitement is far more than that of a drama which you see too much of on social media even before it goes on air. It also goes to show that the makers of the drama are quiet certain that their final product is enough to grab the attention of the viewers. There was news that a drama like Alpha Bravo Charlie was in the pipeline but even now we have not seen the team of the drama going all out to promote it, I hope that it stays this way so that we can all watch the drama, make our own interpretations and enjoy the journey.
Refreshing & Visually Delightful Promos
I have to admit that after Aangan, I have a difficult time getting too excited about any drama at all but Ehd-e-Wafa is definitely an exception since its main attraction isn’t the star cast but the subject of the play, its storyline. It has been well established in the recent past that even a good writer like Mustafa Afridi can mess up and a star cast most certainly does not guarantee a drama which will entertain and entice. Saife Hassan is an ace director who knows his craft too well therefore I am glad, he is the captain of this ship. A fresh pairing is always welcome as well, Sajal and Ahad are the most sought after on-screen couple but it is good to see that the makers of this drama want people to enjoy the bond of friendship and the journey of these friends instead of focusing wholly on a love story.
The viewers can already relate to the quirkiness of these 4 gang members played by Ahad Raza Mir, Ahmed Ali Akbar, Wahaj Ali and Osman Khalid Butt. The promos also guarantee that Ehd-e-Wafa will be beautifully shot, from the locations to the overall setting of each scene, everything looks perfect so far.
The Humor
The jokes in the promos are crisp and relevant – the ‘how is the tea, fantastic sir.” – being my favorite from the promos. “kuttay bano insan na bano.” is another joke which is quite amusing. The humorous element of an otherwise emotional series is the main attraction of all ISPR productions which keeps these dramas from becoming too serious and makes the characters and their journeys even more relatable. The one liners with the promos like “Join the arduous journey of soldiers who defeat their enemies and indulge them with the “fantastic cup of tea” have ISPR written all over them. These witty one liners and the scenes covering the journey of Ahad’s character in particular show that Ehd-e-Wafa is going to be an entertaining journey.
Final Remarks
just what the doctor ordered
So far, the promos have focused on the ‘gang’, showing their journey from college to the academy. Ahad Raza Mir’s scenes and character in the 3 promos which have been released has been more prominent than others. His look for the academy and his love life has been covered in these 3 promos. The first promo focused more on Osman Khalid Butt as the leader of the gang. Osman Khalid Butt asked media to give equal credit to all the Ehd-e-Wafa boys but the 2nd and 3rd promos clearly focus more on Ahad Raza Mir who looks ideal for the role. I am pretty sure all the actors playing the leading roles will do wonders but we clearly haven’t seen enough of all of them in the promos yet. The promos also suggest that just like other ISPR projects, some new faces perhaps from the armed forces will also be seen in the drama.
The overall execution of the drama seems to be exceptional, definitely something most of us were waiting to see for a long time now. Ahad Raza Mir, Ahmed Ali, Vaneezah Ahmed, Osman Khalid Butt, Zara Noor Abbas, Alizay Shah, Wahaj Ali, Faraz Yahya, Inam Siddiqui, Khalifa Sajeer Uddin, Syed Muhammad Ahmed, Mian Wassam Waheed, Ejaz Ahmed Niazi, Agha Muhammad Ali, Azeem Sajjad, Adnan Samad Khan, Naeema Naeem Butt, Anjum Habibi and others will be seen playing lead and supporting characters in Ehd-e-Wafa.
It isn’t very often that the promos of a drama win you over completely. I must say that I can’t wait to tune into Ehd-e-Wafa and I am hoping that the serial itself will be just as impressive as the promos.
How many of you are just as excited about this drama as I am? What did you like the most about the promos? Do share your thoughts in the comments section.
Fahad Mustafa is the biggest cricket fan as well as a great batsman apart from being a phenomenal actor and host. We often hear about his great batting skills from Showbiz stars who play for their cricket team of celebrities , and probably that is the reason he is the fan of our cricket superstars as he has replied into the post of Ahmad Shehzad that
”@iamAhmadshahzad AAP Pakistan team se open Dobara kab barangay😊
On which Ahmad Shehzad has retweeted his comment along with the reply
Jab Pakistan team Ko meri zaroorat hogi Brother!!
I’m making sure that I improve my game every single day & I’m on it.
Prayers are always welcome😊 ”
Well, we all know that Ahmad Shehzad has not been part of the cricket team for quite some time now, and we want him to play and also his fan has asked him to play the cricket. He has said that whenever I will get chance I will be proving myself which is a great thing. It seems that now cricket is going to get better in future and we wish our batsmen to be back and play under the coaching of Misbah Ul Haq .
Hamza Ali Abbasi is grieved over the judicial system and he is demanding justice for Salahuddin the poor and mentally unstable man who was guilty of breaking the Atm machine, his theft was to break a machine and to wander from one city to another. He couldn’t communicate like a normal person. He was investigated in a heinous way and brought to death.
Hamza Ali Abbasi says
“When small-time thieves die in jails because they are poor while big-time thieves enjoy five-star facilities in jails because they are rich/powerful, how can you expect our country to prosper? Without justice, no country can prosper no matter what the economic policies… Its Allah’s law.
He was mentally challenged but seemingly physically ok and Punjab Police’s cited reason for the death of natural causes seems like NON SENSE! Any suspensions in Punjab Police? Anyone arrested from within the police? Ya Phir bass aik a khatam honey wali INQUIRY?
He is right that all the rich people are enjoying the luxurious jails and having a desired lifestyle there and him, being a poor helpless and mentally unstable man wasn’t cared for by, and was brutally interrogated and brought to death. How shameful is that ? how a country and nation can grow this way.
He said that he was mentally challenged but was physically alright and it is the police who has beaten him to death. He is asking is this just an inquiry or are we going to see the justice this time ?
We pray that the culprits of Salahuddin are brought to justice as soon as possible.
Noor Hassan is a very calm person.he is a great actor and recently his drama Hassad has done so well and also he is famous for his hilarious TikTok videos along with his co-stars. He is very friendly with his fans he often replies to his fans and wish them birthdays and not only this he reshares fan-made posts and ask before sharing but recently he lost his calm on a girl who called her too idle to comment on every post and wishing to fans on which he said that I am not an angry person and I don’t mind what people say but see your words which are too arrogant, saying me idle for this rather I love spending time with fans.
We felt that the fan later on deleted her post but we have got the reply of Noor Hassan for you all and we also have his cute interactions with his fans.
Here are the comments from his posts.
Sheheryar Munawar is a recent heartthrob who is most talked-about because of his Good looks and the way he carries himself self which indeed he does in a very graceful manner.
He knows how to be clicked in the camera and also he has recently posted his perfect picture from his Movie paray hat love in which he is smoking a cigarette. His picture was posted with the disclaimer that “smoking is a disgusting habit which I have struggled with and hopefully can kick it soon. To all kids reading this don’t take it up! It’s not cool. However, for some reason, my photographer friends feel that it has a cinematic appeal to it when taking pictures.
Well, his photo no doubt is so perfect that one can’t take his eyes off but the best part of the post was the disclaimer for the youth to think smoking as a bad and disgusting habit and is not cool at all.
“Try not to smoke and I am also trying to get away with it ”
We also request to everyone to actually stop smoking for the good as it is injurious to health and well-being.
Fans also appreciated his disclaimer along with the picture because now a days actors don’t bother what they are endorsing and what could be the impact of it.

But the story doesn’t end here. Shahveer is getting bashed by Pakistani people for disrespecting Quaid’s place. People are calling his act disgraceful and shameful!
Let’s take a look at some of the hateful comments.
Fans can’t stop going crazy over Iqra’s latest no makeup photo.
We have seen our celebrities in full glamorous looks but slowly and gradually many celebrities are embracing their natural skin. Recently, many celebrities have shared their no makeup photos and they have received mix comments from people. Some people adored their photos while others criticized them.
Iqra Aziz has been in the news this year. She is an emerging Pakistani actress and model. She got much praise for her acting skills in Suno Chanda, her fans totally loved her character. She is not one of those actresses who posts only glamorous photos, but she also posts her cutest no makeup photos.
Here we have latest cutest and no makeup photo of Iqra Aziz.
This trend of going makeup less is encouraged by people and is having positive effect on girls. Many girls are embracing their natural beauty and are getting comfortable in their skins.
Iqra’s fans are going crazy on her latest picture. The comments show how she is being loved by her followers.
This is not the first time that Iqra has posted such picture. In her earlier photos, she has gone makeup free. Let’s have a look!

Have a look at the beautiful family of Fatima and Arsalan celebrating Almir and Mahbir’s birthday.
The gorgeous Juggun Kazim is talking about body shaming and how we must stop it!
We always believe celebrities have the most amazing life but we ignore the dark side of their life. We live in a culture where women are mocked for their bodies.
One of the most beloved actress and host, Juggun Kazim, has shared her story in a detailed Instagram post. She opened up about her miscarriages and much more in a heartbreaking post.
“Until a few days ago, I was pregnant. For some reason, I gained a lot of weight really really quickly. What shocked me was how much I started getting fat-shamed. One lady said, ‘Lagta hai Lahore ki hawa lag gaye tumhain.’ Other women just told me bluntly that I had become a bit too “healthy”, she shared.
She further added, “Till now, I wasn’t ready to share that I was expecting a baby because my pregnancies have generally been precarious. Last week, I had a miscarriage. My doctor has now told me that that this time it was quite serious and that there had been a lot of internal bleeding. I took a day off to mourn but then went back to work because, well, what else can one do? And the day after I resumed work, someone again commented on how I was looking “extra healthy.”
“We need to stop fat-shaming other people. People who are overweight know they are overweight. Their weight gain may be for any number of reasons, some desirable and some not. Yes, some people need to be encouraged to lead a more active lifestyle. But unless you are somebody’s mother or sister, don’t tell them what you think of their body.”
She emphasized in her last lines:
“Life is short. Let’s try and live ours with kindness.”
Celebrities body shaming in not a new thing. Many celebrities have been a victim of it. The issue of body shaming has been recognized by west and it’s high time now that we must recognize it too. This culture of body shaming must be stopped on urgent basis.
Aiman Khan and Minal Khan need absolutely no introduction. They have been associated with the showbiz industry ever since they were little and these two twin sisters have literally grown up right in front of the viewers’ eyes. It is no secret that Aiman Khan and Minal Khan are really close to one another.
Aiman and Minal often give interviews together, their social media handles are filled with pictures in which they are seen having a great time and most importantly they have always defended each other. However, since they are in the same field, they are bound to be compared every now and then.
Here is an analysis of Aiman Khan and Minal Khan’s professional life based on everything they have done and achieved so far.
Social Media Comparison
Anyone who follows Aiman Khan and Minal Khan would know that although they started their showbiz careers at the same time and interestingly enough there isn’t even a vast difference in the number of projects they have worked in, yet Aiman Khan has more fan following than Minal Khan. Aiman Khan is clearly more popular than Minal Khan on social media, something which is evident from the number of followers they have on Instagram.
This surely shows that the reason why Aiman Khan has bagged more projects in lead roles recently is that she has more fan following than Minal Khan. Fans always follow those celebrities more who they like and obviously these are the celebrities who they want to see on screen more often.
Aiman and Minal’s Personalities
Aiman Khan and Minal Khan recently talked about the differences in their personalities when they were invited as guests in Samina Peerzada’s talk show. In this talk show as well, Aiman Khan’s show went on air before Minal Khan’s show. The viewers were eagerly waiting to see Aiman Khan in a show again since she announced before getting married that she was not going to work once she gets married.
Minal Khan told Samina Peerzada that Aiman has a more bubbly and confident personality. She said that Aiman was born 28 minutes before her and although this was hardly an ‘age difference’ yet Aiman was clearly more ‘bossy’ – perhaps a go-getter. Minal Khan also said that Aiman Khan made friends more easily and most of her friends were those people with whom Aiman got close to first.
In the same show Aiman Khan explained Minal Khan’s personality as short tempered, moody and difficult to understand. Aiman Khan did not share her relationship with Muneeb Butt initially with Minal Khan which shows that she is more capable of making big decisions on her own.
After Aiman Khan’s marriage, Minal Khan is trying to take up more responsibilities. The difference in their temperament is perhaps another reason why Aiman Khan has more fans and she has managed to do more work in the industry.

Aiman and Minal’s Love Life
Aiman Khan and Muneeb Butt‘s relationship was the talk of the town even before they got married. Aiman Khan also got her first lead role in a play alongside Muneeb Butt. The fact that both of them met at a young age, had an interesting love story and most importantly that they were a celebrity couple definitely added to Aiman Khan’s fame.
People looked forward to watching them together both on and off screen. They also worked in projects together and there were many times when Aiman and Muneeb were seen walking the ramp as show stoppers for leading designers.
Aiman and Muneeb together were/are just as much of a ‘brand’ as they were alone. Having a life partner who was in the same profession must have helped Aiman Khan make the right career choices. Muneeb Butt is also older than Aiman and in several interviews both of them shared how Muneeb guided Aiman in many ways.
Aiman Khan and Muneeb Butt always were quite open sharing their love story with their fans in talk shows. Their wedding was also one of the most talked about celebrity wedding of the year which also added to Aiman Khan’s popularity.
Aiman Khan did her most notable projects and played lead in some really popular dramas right before she got married. They obviously get more media coverage too because they are both famous actors.
Minal Khan on the other hand is a more private person who does not talk about her relationship openly. Although, everyone knows that she is with someone but she has never talked about it in interviews. Also, the fact that her special someone is not from showbiz and she does not like to share this part of her life with fans and followers is another reason why fans feel she is a hiding a part of her life from them.
Although, this is purely Minal Khan’s own decision and her personal affair but the difference between the two sisters in this regard is also apparent. It would be safe to conclude that Aiman Khan’s love life has helped her in her career more than Minal Khan’s.
Popular Dramas – Aiman vs Minal
Aiman Khan and Minal Khan both started playing leading roles only recently in dramas. For the longest time they were seen playing supporting roles alongside more popular actors and actresses. All of that changed when both of them lost weight and changed their overall looks.
If we compare the overall journeys of these two sisters, it is quite evident that Aiman Khan has played the lead in more popular dramas than Minal Khan. Her face and presence has been used by production houses to promote their dramas especially in the year 2018.
After Aiman Khan got married, Minal Khan got some of her biggest projects. Hassad recently has been a huge hit in which Minal Khan played a leading role. Until now however Aiman Khan has played the lead alongside bigger names in the industry.
It seems that Minal Khan has decided to experiment more with her looks and venture into projects which offer meatier roles. She did share in her recent interview that Aiman’s marriage changed her a great deal and she has decided to accept that change. She is the big sister now who has to look out for her brothers. This maturity and change reflects in Minal Khan’s recent acting projects too.
Minal Khan is surely out to prove herself and the changes in her are already visible. Aiman Khan for now is out of the picture but until now Aiman Khan has achieved much more than her twin sister Minal Khan. Aiman Khan is the bigger celebrity who gets more media attention and love from the people because she has contributed more to the industry. Aiman Khan also is loved because of her relationship with Muneeb Butt and the love between her and Minal Khan. What do you think? Who is your favorite? Do share your opinions in the comments section.

Her work includes; Wo Aik Pal and Tumhari Maryam. She completed her MBA from Iqra University and joined industry to fulfill her dreams.
Besides her acting skills, Ramsha has gained followers due to her versatile personality and chic style. She has seen flaunting her desi style in her recent Instagram posts.
Celebrities come across severe criticism, whether its about their body or their lifestyle choices. Many celebrities have been body shamed by our very own awaam. We have examples of Hareem Farooq and Juggun Kazim who have been body shamed.
Throughout the world, plus size models are walking on ramps and making their way while, we are still stuck on making fun of women for their bodies. Sana Fakhar has always been vocal about this issue. She shared a picture of her on Instagram where she questioned:
Why do we have double standards!? Size zero, four or six… why do we have to put a number upon and against people?
Sana maintains a healthy lifestyle and encourages others to do the same. In her recent video, she is giving advise on how to ignore body shaming and she totally nails it.
“Why God has given you two ears? Listen from one ear and out from another. So, take your every criticism like that,” Sana advised.
Sana’s Instagram handle is filled with her gym photos where she can be seen performing many exercises. She keeps herself in shape and motivates others to maintain the healthy lifestyle.
In the name of revival of Pakistani Cinema, our actors have gotten a chance to showcase their talent on a whole new level. It takes a lot for an actor to make their presence felt on the big screen. A lot of things things can get ignored or go unnoticed on a small screen, but when it comes to the big screen, it is very unforgiving and demands a lot more from an actor. Acting is one of the major aspects that an actor has to showcase that too on a very grand scale but that is not where it stops. For an actor to make a mark and prove their mettle in a film, alongside acting, they require body language, right attitude, screen presence and dancing skills as well.
When the Pakistani Film Industry was on the path of revival, a lot of the movies in the initial days relied heavily on item numbers. It was like they used item numbers to attract the audience. All the actors who decided to do item numbers were criticised but it didn’t deter them from performing them again and again, to the point where people got used to the item or dance numbers in a movie in general.
Over the years, more and more actors have come forward and taken dance numbers as a challenge and they put a lot of effort in them as well. Our actors are seen working hard on their physiques, their clothes, hair and makeup to add more flavor and charm to their songs and dance numbers in general but the recent movies have proved that our actors still lack that confidence and accurate moves to make their dance performances impactful, memorable and mesmerizing.
This year, a lot of movies were released and all of them had a considerable number of dance performances given out by our top actors but as they released, the audience were not only left speechless, but felt underwhelmed too. Where it is nice to see our actors exploring different domains and not holding back, it is unfortunate that despite putting so much effort, they still end up making a point that the original is always better than a copied content, original being Indian dance numbers in this context.
In the last few years, we have seen some amazing performances from some of our actors too and it does prove that few of our actors do have that craft up their sleeves too, where others don’t. Let’s have a look at the actors who can and can not dance:
Actors Who Can Not Dance:
Bilal Ashraf:
The team of film Superstar left no stone unturned to promote this movie heavily, to the point where it became bothersome for the TV buffs seeing Bilal Ashraf and Mahira Khan again and again. Bilal Ashraf had a special song dedicated to his character in the movie titled ‘Dharak Bharak’, which was a total rip off of Ranveer Singh’s ‘Tattad Tattad’. Even though Bilal Ashraf did claim that he was going for the exact vibe, it then became too obvious that he was not only uncomfortable but totally underperformed as well. His body language was awkward and his dance moves were stiff and wrong. With every passing frame Bilal Ashraf proved how and why Pakistani actors lack those dance skills because it just does not come naturally to them. Bilal Ashraf thought he was doing the audience of Superstar a huge favor by showing his bare body but it proved that by the end of the day, size of clothes do not matter in a dance number, what matters the most is the dance itself. I’m glad Bilal Ashraf’s bubble has been burst.
Maya Ali:
Maya Ali’s song ‘Balma Bhagora’ from her movie ‘Paray Hut Love’ got a lot of attention too but for all the wrong reasons. Maya Ali was supposed to be the star of that song but Zara Noor Abbas beat her to it and stole the show. This song was not only criticised for the editing and lack of synchronization, but Maya Ali‘s dance overall was equally bad and brought a lot of criticism her way. Her lines were not clear and it was too obvious that she struggled while competing with the pace of the song because she left her steps incomplete and moved to the next one haphazardly. Once again, Maya Ali showed that dancing did not come naturally to her. Maya Ali did garner a lot of appreciation for her acting in the movie but when it came to her dance performance, she showed that she needed a lot more finessing and practice. In the song ‘Haye Dil Bechara’, Maya did dance well but then, she had slow and limited steps that didn’t requite a lot of work from her but when it comes to the actual song Balma Bhagora which was hyped up by the team, Maya Ali couldn’t prove herself. Once again, length of clothing does not matter if your dancing is not on point!

Kubra Khan:
Kubra Khan has made a name for herself in a very short span. Her overall screen presence has landed her a role (big or small) in quite a lot of movies from the big banners. However, Kubra Khan may act with some ease but when it comes to dancing, she makes it quite evident that she is stiff and is having a hard time dancing. In her recent song ‘Dharak Bharak’, where she was supposedly the ‘item girl’ in the song, her entire body movement was not in sync and even though she looked like a Diva, it was obvious that she put a lot of effort in looking beautiful on-screen but when it came to the actual dancing, she was uncomfortable and may be missed a lot of practice sessions and rehearsals. In those scenes where she had to be in physical contact with Bilal Ashraf, she seemed uncomfortable yet again. In Parwaz Hai Junoon, Kubra Khan had a small dancing sequence in the song ‘Naache Re’ even in that song she seemed stiff and her facial expressions were as if she was finding dance as hard as a duty!
Mawra Hocane:
Mawra Hocane is a confident actor and she has made a name for herself in the drama industry. Mawra Hocane explored different horizon and made her Pakistani debut with Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2. In the movie she was paired with Fahad Mustafa and they both had a dance number ‘Aya Lariye’ to perform on. Where Fahad Mustafa stole the show, Mawra Hocane seemed clueless and her dance moves were sloppy just like her body language. Mawra Hocane showed that she was not a confident dancer and she was having a very hard time carrying her own weight as well as the weight of her heavy dress that she was wearing in that song. Most of the time, Mawra Hocane was jumping like a jack which made me wonder may be this was again her confidence that was giving her this confidence that she can get away with this kind of sloppy dancing in a movie. I feel bad for those audience who had the misfortune of watching ‘this’ performance on a big screen. I am sure their eyes are still recovering from the traumatic experience.
Hareem Farooq:
Hareem Farooq is an effortless actor and she has that screen presence to carry herself as a lead in any film on a big screen but when it comes to dancing Hareem looks awkward. Hareem Farooq definitely puts in a lot of effort and looking at her dance does make you feel that she has rehearsed non-stop, may be so much that when the actual time came to shoot the songs, her muscles were sore and she couldn’t complete her lines. Hareem Farooq is a great actor and a confident performer, but she definitely is not an effortless dancer. Hareem has such a personality which can not go unnoticed, that is why her average dancing skills are hard to ignore too.
Actors Who Can Dance:
Fahad Mustafa:
Fahad Mustafa has been a part of the industry for a very long time. Fahad Mustafa is one such actor who has every secret of trade up his sleeve and that is why, no matter which domain he ventures into, he gives his 100% and convinces everyone why he is so deserving of the fame and name that he has achieved over a period of time. Fahad Mustafa makes his dance numbers a visual treat. He is a confident performer and more than that, he makes sure to do justice to the choreography that he has invested his time learning. If you pick any of the songs that Fahad Mustafa has danced in, you will see him outdoing himself every single time. Fahad Mustafa has surely proved that he is one of those few Pakistani actors who definitely know how to dance and make it seem like he is having a great time dancing on those songs.
Hania Amir:
Hania Amir has appeared in few movies in her comparatively shorter span in the industry but she has carved a name for herself and has achieved a lot of success due to her acting and beautiful appearance. Hania Amir has also proved that she can surely dance and effortlessly at that. In Parwaz Hai Junoon’s song ‘Naache Re’ Hania Amir’s dance moves seemed effortless and mesmerizing. She gave this song the right kind of treatment it deserved and she danced without holding back. Even though those dance moves were very subtle and didn’t require a lot of work, Hania Amir’s body language and overall demeanor was perfect in that song.
Mehwish Hayat:
Mehwish Hayat has been a part of the Pakistani Film Industry ever since its initial and struggling days. Mehwish Hayat has given a lot of dance performances in almost every movie that she has been a part of and she always has given convincing treatment to her dance numbers. Mehwish Hayat is one of those few actresses who are absolutely confident on big screen and know how to grab the attention of the viewers. Mehwish Hayat has danced on all kinds of songs varying from wedding songs to songs that are shot in clubs, but she has always proved how versatile she is when it comes to dancing. Mehwish is a phenomenal performer and she is exceptionally confident.
Sohai Ali Abro:
Sohai Ali Abro has also ventured into movies and is doing well for herself. As much as Sohai Ali Abro is selective in choosing her projects, she is the kind of actor who moulds herself completely in any character that is assigned to her. Sohai Ali Abro is such a performer who doesn’t hold back and she knows how to play with the camera. Sohai Ali Abro has proved that she can dance and beautifully at that too. In movies such as Jawani Phir Nahi Ani and Wrong Number, Sohai Ali Abro got a chance to showcase her acting as well as dancing skills and she showed what she is capable of. Sohai Ali Abro also knows how far to take it and that is why, she makes her dance performances visual treat and she makes herself look cute.

Mahira Khan:
When it comes to acting, Mahira Khan has attracted all kinds of opinions where people are always debating whether she is a convincing actor or not. As far as dancing is concerned, it is a done deal that Mahira Khan has proved her dancing prowess time and again. In every single movie that Mahira Khan stars in, she gets to showcase her dancing skills and she is someone who makes her dancing seem effortless and a treat to watch. Mahira Khan makes it look like dancing comes naturally to her and if she puts in a lot of effort in learning her choreography, she does justice to it on the big screen because the end result always looks like a fine work of art. Mahira Khan for sure is a very graceful and elegant dancer, which is why she has started doing special dance sequences in different movies and we are not complaining.
Ahmed Ali Butt:
Ahmed Ali Butt is an actor who is known for his comedy and comedic timing. Ahmed Ali Butt has carved a niche for himself and he does what he is good at. Even in all the movies that he has starred in, Ahmed Ali Butt didn’t hold back from dancing but then, being a versatile actor that he is, he always added his own twists to every dance move and the audience loved his performances. Ahmed Ali Butt doesn’t leave the comedic touch when he is dancing and that is why he always seems to be in his element even in the dance numbers. This is the reason why more than Urwa Hocane, Ahmed Ali Butt earned appreciation for his effortless dance moves in JPNA 2’s song ’24/7 Lak Hilna’.

In Pakistani Television and films every thing is being upgraded the same way morning shows need to be upgraded. The shows definitely need some concept and content writers in order to avoid below the belt and harsh statements which do create discomfort for guests
Morning Shows need to be revised while they go on air.
Nida Yasir has been blamed for endorsement of her shopping her tours and she asks guest to showcase their make up routine, their cosmetics etc sometimes she just asks unnecessary things which is taken too negatively by audiances and in recent past the actresses were sharing her videos of shopping display on their instagram and referred it as a cringe worthy act.
In a show she showed all the shopping she did from USA. The health and tips segments are not necessarily needed. Its high time to create content based shows. Morning shows are often blamed for inviting same guests, same content.
Salam Zindagi is a renowned morning show Faysal Quraishi has massive fan following he started show in 2016. It is considered to be a good decent show but somehow now a days Adeel Amjad (AKA Aadi) has been criticised alot on Facebook because he has no filter on his mouth. His fans come to protect him but they are teenagers. There is another age group of mature people who actually don’t like the kind of jokes he throws which are often below the belt, most of the time he is found fake flirting with girls to make the show crispy which is actually uncalled for.
The show Faysal Quraishi did with Qavi Muhammad Sir, was good the way he talked to senior showed the respect element. Faysal Quraishi is not a strict person he tries to control Adeel Amjad but the guy has not provided with any code of ethics for the show, he is of his own kind, he is extemporaneous but this quality may become a drawback.
PEMRA needs to set what to be talked about on media and what not because it is getting out of hands now displaying shopping, doing wedding functions and compromising ethics, only freedom of speech without crossing the line is acceptable. Don’t make fun trolling a habit in shows, do not show off in shows. Please work on shows like Rewind with Samina peerzada, Say it all with Iffat Omar due to TRPs concept oriented shows have been shifted to YouTube unfortunately such shows used to be meant for Tv.
We are just attaching the comments here of all morning shows not only negative but mix of all the views
