Talking about it, she said, “Nine years ago, I stepped into the industry not knowing what was going to happen to me or what I was doing. I had no idea about lights, cameras, or what it felt like to be under the gaze of millions. I was just a little girl having fun, figuring out what to do in life, and learning from mistakes, not knowing where life would take me. Every stumble, every heartbreak, and every headline has made me who I am today—it has made me ‘Me’. Being a woman in the industry comes with battles. People expect you to be delicate but not loud, beautiful but not bold. There’s a box everyone wants you to fit into, but it’s not meant for a woman who takes up space. I have always chosen to take space, laugh loudly, and love fearlessly. You’ve seen me grow up, and this is just the beginning.” Here is the link to the video:

Talking about it, Shahid Afridi said, “Indian media iscquite strange—totally unprofessional—making weird requests to Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and other players to call out Pakistan. I call them “Cartoon Network” because they are still under the influence of Bollywood. Cricket should stay away from politics; people genuinely love sports worldwide. Recently, what they did with the World XI Legends made a mockery of them internationally. Now, the same people who once refused to play with Pakistan’s legendary team are getting them registered for commentary in the Asia Cup.” Here is the link to the video:

I think I should tell now everyone—many people already know that I got divorced recently, just a few months before coming to Tamasha. At that time, I was in a difficult phase. I am a single parent and faced multiple hurdles; I was mentally disturbed. Tamasha is a place where you have no connections, no entertainment, no meet-ups, no phones. I had once wished to be in a place with no signals. I needed peace of mind because I was frustrated, and Allah granted the opportunity to me. So, I found peace for a few weeks. When I recorded the promo, I said, ‘I had already been through enough in my life, so Tamasha would just be a piece of cake for me’. There, I used to see the contestants fighting, and it all looked so childish to me.” Here is the link to the video:

A friend brought his wife to me, and she was checked by a gynecologist. Later, I called my friend to give her reports. In Dayan, I played the role of a plastic surgeon, and I had done a similar character earlier for PTV. It was in the serial Doosri Larki, which aired on PTV and was inspired by the novel Mirror Has Two Faces. Javed and I were the leads, and Talat Hussain played the role I played in Dayan. It was shot with two girls. In the story, a plastic surgeon gives a girl the face of his recently murdered daughter, and she went into a house where people didn’t recognize her. It was after our serial that India made Khoon Bhari Maang.

Talking about it, Javeria Saud said, “Jannat and Ibrahim were die-hard fans of Varun Dhawan. Ibrahim expressed his wish to meet him, so Saud called his friend and told him that the kids wanted to meet Varun Dhawan. His friend arranged a meeting while Varun was shooting in Abu Dhabi. We went there, where Varun Dhawan, Akshaye Khanna, and John Abraham were filming a helicopter scene, so we waited. Saud was quite shy about meeting him and even reluctant to take a picture, so he stayed in the car. Meanwhile, Varun had a light conversation with Ibrahim and jokingly asked how many girlfriends he had, to which Ibrahim replied, ‘Five.’ Later, Varun called Saud over and asked about him. When Saud stepped out of the car, all the crew members and workers started taking pictures with him. He ended up taking pictures with around 150 people! Varun then said to me, ‘Your husband is such a big actor—everyone is taking pictures with him!’ It was truly an overwhelming moment for us.”

Talking about it, Sanam Saeed said, “I was worried about doing a Khalil ur Rehman Qamar script, I was saying to me that what am I doing it or even how am I doing it, but I was quite confident about changing certain things because of his past work that has gone by. I thought that it should change now, time has changed and we should not speak insensitive things. I wanted a few things to be changed like I was of the view that we can reconstuct a sentence. Now is the time that someone like me should say that I’m not doing it. I didn’t also let my colleagues speak a few sentences because they were sensitive or inappropriate for example there were little expressions, or to laugh off at a bad behaviour. I was of the opinion that such behaviour should be called out and one should repent for that and only Nadeem can do that because of his relationship with Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar. Sajal also did a few, where she could. I got this confidence because of Baig Sahab, I knew we can change a bit” Here is the link to the video:
