There is a quote, “Photogenic is a stupid, nonsensical word but is also a great mystery.” Yes. It truly is but when you are one photogenic person yourself, it isn’t one. Some people are gifted actors. Some people have a great presence on screen or stage. Some people have luck by their side. Some are loved by the camera. Some are loved by the people.What if there is a person who consists all of these attributes? Well, that’s how divas come into existence.
She came from Lahore to Karachi to pursue career in acting. How many people have guts to leave a comfortable life behind to follow their dreams in a new city. Well, she did & man did she succeed. Of course she did. She’s achieved great hypes. She came, she saw and she conquered.
If makers want to grab ratings, they surely know who to approach. If they want a pretty face, she is the one. She’s played variety of roles from being a damsel in distress to the woman who will steal your man in seconds if she wishes to. What does it really require for all this? Well, talent is the answer. Yes, as we mentioned above she is talented, charming & the rating queen.
She’s a younger sister of Zaib Chaudhry. She is one and only Sanam Chaudhry who is appearing in Haiwan opposite Wahaj Ali. Her last outing Ghar Titli Ka Par was a big success. Her Anji act was lauded. Now, she is back with a character which has more positive shades. She recently did a photoshoot with her co actor where is a sight to behold.
Legends are born. But they do have to go through alot to be finally recognised.As someone quoted rough diamonds sometimes may be mistaken for worthless pebbles. Stars are not made easily. They do go through alot, work hard, stay dedicated & make no compromise over their dreams. All this for a dream only they can seen.
While, it maybe easier now a days to be under limelight, it was anything but easy in past. There was no snapchat, instagram or youtube to turn people into overnight stars. Back then, people would work really hard on their art to be recognised. Once they did, there was no stopping for them.
Attaullah Essakhelvi is a star who was born into a small town called Mianwali in Punjab. He may have never thought if he ever would be a legendary singer. But surely talent & fate had a big role to play in his journey. He recently appeared on Aplus’ morning show Ek Nayi Subah where he told about his journey. He said he was so fond of Madam Noor Jehan that he started working as a waiter in a restaurant which was located opposite Noor Jehan’s house. He did that just to take glimpse of her. Now we wonder if we have seen a bigger fan of any star.
Along with Attaullah, Sanwal Essakhelvi, his son was also present. Sanwal told that he gets shivers when he has to sing infront of his father. Farah also asked him why named his son Sanwal. To which he replied that Sanwal means Mehboob and he had decided before his birth that he would name his son Sanwal. Also, his album Sanwal was released on the day of his son’s birth. Which made the name extra special.
People have issues with the morning shows but they still watch them. Getting new content every day five times a week is not an easy job and sometimes same faces are seen on every other morning show doing the same thing. And when it comes to hosts, not every host is capable of pulling it off like a pro.
Celebrities keep debuting as morning show hosts every now and then but some have stayed in the business ever since these transmissions started. Farah Ali is one host who has been hosting since the begining of her career. She also acted in some plays but hosting was always her calling. She joined ATV as a morning show in 2005 and has stayed with the network ever since.
Now she has switched to ATV’s sister channel Aplus and still doing a wonderful job. Recently, Farah did an episode where she invited former film actresses Sahiba and Zara Shaikh along with Maira Khan. The theme of the episode was to see how working women manage to shine in the kitchen as well as in their professional life. Sahiba made a confession that once after marriage she had tried to make a gol roti for sehri all night but she failed.
Sahiba also revealed that Rambo wasn’t her first love. We wondered who was he then? Well, relax it was not a person. She confessed her first love was her film career. And she had to quit on the latter to be with the former. While confession game was going on, host Farah revealed that she had once got a car stopped and slapped a guy who was trying to bully her while driving. Well, that’s cool of Farah.

Pakistani Cinema is finally done with the so-called revival. And it is on the roll. Jawani Phir Nahin Ani, Load Wedding & Parwaaz Hai Junoon made big bucks at the box office and gave filmmakers confidence to keep making films.
One of the first few successful films that actually made the revival successful was Wrong Number. It was Yasir Nawaz’s foray into cinema after making many serials on TV.
The film starred Danish Taimoor & Sohai Ali Abro and did very well at the Box Office. It was a story of a kidnapping gone wrong which proved to be a riot. People loved it & so did we.
Yasir Nawaz returned with Mehrunisa We Luv You which also did fairly well at the box office being an Eid Release. We don’t have enough films to remake but we do keep coming with sequels time & again. Jawani Phir Nahin Ani & Na Maloom Afraad franchise are the examples.
Sequels prove to be a sure shot way of box office success. Keeping that in mind, Yasir Nawaz has announced Wrong No 2 which stars Sami Khan & Neelam Munir in the lead roles. The film will be distributed by A Distribution Club.
Neelam’s last venture Chupan Chupaai was appreciated while Sami Khan’s comeback to the films was keenly awaited. We wish the team best of luck.

West is producing great television. We may not be doing as well but if we compare our TV to our neighbouring country, we are doing quite good in terms of execution. Our portrayal of issues is more realistic which is good but there has been coming many regressive & repetetive shows lately. But that’s not the case with all the dramas. Some really great stories have made it to TV recently.
So, we were talking of diversity. Are we getting the white part of our flag enough stories to be represented well? Well, I don’t think of any such story in past, but recently Mariam Periera made headlines. It tells a story of a christian girl. The show is simulcast on TV One & PTV Home. It was a sigh of relief to see that a different story was given a place during primetime.
Recently, another drama which also happens to tell a tale of a christian girl was in News. 7th Sky’s new production Mariam Binte Abdullah tells a story of a christian girl who’s father happens to be Muslim. It stars Kinza Hashmi in the lead & now another name has come across to be part of the show which is veteran actor Firdous Jamal’s son Hamza Firdous. We are more than excited to see such an interesting story which fresh pairing. Mariam Binte Abdullah will soon be launched on Geo TV.

Farhan Saeed and Iqra Aziz both have worked with many other actors in the past too but the magic these two created on screen has been unmatched. Farhan Saeed and Iqra Aziz’s on screen couple was also loved because Suno Chanda was not like the love stories viewers are used to watching on the television screens. Their characters had a love-hate relationship and Suno Chanda was a romantic comedy. Suno Chanda was one of the most popular dramas on television this year. A big reason for this was the chemistry that these two actors shared with each other. This drama was so popular that many viewers wanted to see a sequel. There has been news that the sequel will be shown.
Iqra and Farhan were seen in yet another photo shoot which was for the cover of a leading magazine. Here are some pictures from the photo shoot.

They are high school sweethearts whose love for each other did not change even though they were apart and in different relationships for more than 6 years.

At that time Fahad did not respond to her well and was cold.
When Sarwat got back from Umrah things changed. They started meeting, the families got together and that is how they got married.
Pakistani Actresses Divorces is not the best topic to cover, it is truly sad when marriages break. Marriage is an institution that joins two people together. They promise to live together and share all the happiness and sorrows forever. But this does not become true always. Things get difficult and relationships do break up. It causes pain to both parties and is always a point of sadness for anyone with a heart. The involvement of children makes things even more difficult and complicated as the break up is not only of two individuals but also of two parents. The year 2018 has been a year of marital bliss for the Pakistani entertainment industry with so many celebrities saying their I dos and starting a beautiful journey of their lives. However, there have been some unfortunate incidents when the couples have broken up due to unavoidable circumstances. Fortunately, though the divorces were far less and we wish everyone whose heart has been broken finds their happiness again.
Here is a list of Pakistani Actresses Divorces in the year 2018:
Veena Malik And Asad Khattak:

She was a controversial celebrity and people were showing multiple feelings about the union of the two. The couple had a fairytale wedding and they no doubt looked great together and complimented each other. They have two children together, a boy and a girl. Veena and Asad got separated last year due to some issues but got back together. Things looked well between the two from the outside but at the end, it did not work out and the couple got divorced this year with Veena confirming the news a few months back.
Mathira Mohammad And Farran J. Mirza:
Mathira also is a celebrity who has been a part of controversies time and time again. Mathira’s marriage news broke out also in a very controversial manner. She got married to then-husband Farran, a Dubai based singer in an intimate ceremony in 2012 and kept her relationship personal. Mathira was expecting her son when people like always started to make stupid speculations to which Mathira announced that she has married in a private ceremony. The couple has a son together but parted ways this year due to some unavoidable circumstances. It was tragic as the couple looked beautiful together but it had to happen so it happened.
Fiza Ali And Fawad Farooq:
Fiza Ali got married to Fawad Farooq in 2007 and the couple looked happy together. However, people were shocked when they found out that things were not going well for the couple and they have parted ways. Fiza’s divorce was very quiet and she has gotten married to Ayyaz Malik this year too which she announced on her social media. Fiza and Fawad share a beautiful daughter Faraal. We wish Fiza a lot of happiness in her new journey with Ayyaz and wish that she finds her forever.
Aisha Linnea And Shahbaz Shigri:
Beautiful model Aisha Linnea got married to actor/director Shahbaz Shigri in 2012. The couple was together for about a decade and was sure one of the most beautiful couples of Pakistani entertainment industry. Aisha has been avoiding social media for about 2 years now and she came back on Instagram finally a few months back when she announced that the couple is divorced and they are not together any more thus breaking out a very sad news for her fans and followers.
Sanam Baloch And Abdullah Farhatullah:
The most beautiful and bubbly couple Sanam Baloch and Abdullah Farhatullah embarked on a journey of life together in the year 2013. Both of them got married very fast after meeting at Samaa TV where they both were working at that time. Since the start of the year 2018, Sanam and Abdullah were not being seen together and people started speculating about a separation when Sanam changed her name back to her maiden name on her Instagram, Things were not confirmed back then but Sanam came on Samina Peerzada’s show Speak Your Heart With Samina Peerzada where she confirmed that her and Abdullah have parted ways and are not together anymore thus putting a stop to the rumour mill.
Relationships break and people get separated. no doubt this makes a person get into a lot of heartbreak and sorrow. We wish that each one of these people find their happiness back and be more peaceful and successful in their respective lives because as they say that life must go on!

Momina Mustehsan conquered the music industry with her debut song immediately. She sang the Afreen Afreen with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and became an overnight sensation with people deeming her the National crush because of her beauty. Momina has not looked back since and has been a part of the Coke Studio consecutively with having multiple songs each season.
Season 11 was no different and Momina had gotten more than 1 songs with the finale including her famous rendition of Ko Ko Korina. Ko Ko Korina somehow made the nation very passionate and people were not agreeing with the version. It got a lot of criticism from people from every wake of life. Even politicians like Shireen Mazari and Sherry Rehman called it horrendous and flat respectively. This started a catfight of sorts when Momina started replying Mazari with quotes of Uncle Ben and Ahad Raza Mir later also had to say something about it.
Model Alyzeh Gabol also has come forward on the scene and made an indirect comment about Momina defending the song. She said that when you embrace becoming an overnight sensation, you should take the criticism well too. This is what Alyzeh Gabol had to say:
Celebrity couples are loved by millions. We wait for their joining as husbands and wives and these couples are always shipped by their fans. Aiman Khan and Muneeb Butt are one of the most loved couples of Pakistani entertainment industry.

Here are the professional shoot pictures of Aiman Khan’s dholki and we will soon be seeing the main functions of the couple’s wedding in full swing:
Aiman is surely going to make a super pretty bride!
Ohkay so, this episode of Koi Chand Rakh was again pretty average & didn’t have much to offer. Oh yes, I am glad that the chapter of Ibrar closed because just when I was thinking that quite typically Zain & Rabail’s relationship will rely on Ibrar’s breaths, he breathed his last one changing the scenario from being too predictable. Other than that, there was nothing in this episode that was special rather it was full of clichés like it has always been!
Full of Clichés:
Matlab Nafeesa aur Nishal to the hi, Asad uncle joined the league of andhas too. To be honest, I won’t be surprised if later Asad & Nafeesa will agree to Nishal’s marriage with Zain because they are pathetically selfish. All this while, I felt that Asad was reasonable but he proved me wrong. He himself has failed as a parent & he has the audacity to assume that Rabail is responsible for Umair’s condition & his poor choices based on the mere fact that Rabail was in Umair’s room having a conversation with him for his own behtari. Nafeesa & Nishal put up an act in front of Asad but then he won’t be able to judge them correctly since he also has lost his brains just the way the dye on his hair has lost its color!
Ibrar uncle ne itni shadeed acting ki ke dunya e faani se hi kooch kar gaye. It was the most amusing scene because it was anything but serious or intense. Ibrar uncle sounded completely normal in the middle of this manhandling when Zain promised that he won’t be divorcing Rabail but as soon as Ibrar uncle heard that he was going to continue to meet Nishal, he acted a bit too hard & voila…!
Oh well, as if there was a lack of clichés in this drama that the writer had to throw in that bahu is manhoos twist to it too. I am sure Zain’s mother is definitely going to blame Rabail for snatching away the right of sporting a smokey eye, back-combing & wearing those bright colored sarees from her. It was as if Zain’s mother was waiting for someone to put a blame on Rabail so that she could change her tone & oh, Sobi ki intense look dekhi thi kisi ne? LOL, I am sure she was upset that she’d now have to wait a big longer to chase Zia as she was forcefully mourning the death of Ibrar uncle!
Haye Zia bhai, matlab aur kitna beizzat hoge? I am sure koi aur izzat wala hota to drama ki dunya ko khair abaad keh chuka hota but like I said before, ye banda bezti proof hai. It is so funny that his so called best friend’s father passed away & he felt it was the right time to fix his farzi marriage with Nishal. This surely serves Nishal better because she flirted with a loser & now he has become her galay ki noose. To be honest, I don’t know what will I do if I hear Nishal ki husn ki tareef one more time…hadh hi ho gai hai. Zia bhai ki tareefain were puke-worthy. What a chichora I swear!
Closing Thoughts – Monotonous:
The rest of the episode went by in Umair’s crying bouts & Nafeesa’s bad-duas. It is so obvious that there’s nothing special about the script of Koi Chand Rakh & they have nothing better to show that is why we keep on seeing repetitive scenarios where Zia is chasing Nishal, Umair creates a scene every other day, Nafeesa curses Rabail & Zain acts as if he is entitled to ditch Rabail & marry Nishal because it’s not a big deal. It is also getting monotonous hearing everyone lecturing Rabail about her forced responsibilities whereas on the other hand, no one is ready to treat her with respect which she deserves. Anyways, please share your thoughts about this episode of Koi Chand Rakh.
Women rights and oppression against women are topics people are talking about now. Pakistani industry and content are also looking into the topic and we have seen more celebrities come out and talk about it and some dramas portraying the themes in a rightful manner. The global Me Too movement reached Pakistan too and some high profile accusations were made, top of the line being the case between Meesha Shafi and Ali Zafar.
In the wake of the events, actress and director Angeline Malik has launched a movement named “Inkaar Karo, Hum Tumhare Saath Hain”. The movement is meant to raise awareness about social issues and talk about the oppression women are facing in our society. The movement has brought together some strong women who will be listening to stories of the victims, believing and supporting them.
Sanam Saeed, Sonya Husyn Sheema Kirmani, Ayesha Omar, Samina Ahmed, Tooba Siddiqui, Freiha Altaf, Sheema Kirmani, Arjumand Rahim,NA Ghazala Saifi, Uzma Noorani (WAF) (Panah), Rabeeya Seemul Latif (Founder Soul Bitches) , Farah Shah and Faiza Saleem are among the women who have joined the movement.
In the wake of the moment and the cases we have started encountering openly now, this movement can definitely help women talk about their cases.
Baba Jani Episode 8 Story Review – The story is gradually moving forward with every passing episode and Asfand’s relationship with Nimra and Sadia continues to be the most appealing aspect of the drama. Asfand’s character never disappoints but the supporting characters do not have the kind of presence or impact which could make their tracks more enticing.
Saqib Moves In With Asfand
Tonight’s episode opened with Saqib blackmailing his way into Asfand’s house. Asfand is over-conscientiousness which is why he offered help when Saqib narrated his majbooris to him. Asfand’s sisters and their families know how to manipulate him only too well. Asfand is not naive but at the same time he cannot turn a blind eye to his sister’s problems. He is dutiful and has certain principles and he is convinced that even after everything he has done for his sisters, he owes them more.
Asfand’s vulnerabilities and the extent to which he goes to accommodate others can sometimes be frustrating to watch but you always understand why he is like that. His back story and his thinking has been shown in a convincing manner therefore his actions are always relatable. Tonight when he chose to tell Saqib off rather politely even though he knew what Saqib was doing, it wasn’t the most satisfying reaction, but definitely one which was completely in line with his character.
Asfand Supports Sadia and Nimra In His Own Way
The way Asfand supported both Nimra and Sadia was touching yet subtle. He does not like confrontations and gives everyone benefit of the doubt. This is the reason why he chose to show Sadia he cared by telling her he will wait for her when she got up from the dinner table after Saqib’s taunt. He also noticed that Nimra was not mingling with anyone in the house and something was bothering her. Later on, when he saw Saqib upstairs he decided that leaving Nimra alone with him would be a bad idea. Most importantly his conversation with Nimra was one of the best parts of this episode. I must say that it would have been so much better if Nimra and Asfand had more scenes together.
Asfand’s Meeting With Farida Khala
Asfand finally met Farida Khala. This meeting was long over due! Everything Farida Khala told Asfand brought back memories. He obviously felt responsible for how Mehwish ended up especially because Khala also mentioned that her marriage was delayed because of Asfand. The flashback scene showed why Asfand was feeling so guilty and why he was so upset.
Naila’s Conversation With Sadia
Naila did what she does best when she tried to convince Sadia that Asfand was still in love with Mehwish. She also praised Mehwish over and over again and enjoyed playing on Sadia’s insecurities. For the first time it seemed like Sadia really was disturbed and doubtful. Some of Sadia’s reactions tonight also showed that she was more expressive and confident now.
Will Asfand Try To “Save” Mehwish?
How can someone like Asfand live with the fact that someone he once loved is unhappy now partially because of him? It is highly likely that Asfand will try to save Mehwish and will do something to get her out of this situation.
Performances and Direction
The performances were on point tonight. Faysal Qureshi, Madiha Imam and Savera Nadeem are brilliant in their respective roles. Sundas Tariq is also performing superbly. Saba Hameed is doing justice to her character but her character has nothing new to offer ever, it is the same thing over and over again! Naila’s character is slightly more interesting than that of Najiba’s because her actions have been affecting Asfand’s life in some way or the other.
The first few episodes were directed and edited brilliantly but lately the scenes do not have the kind of flow which keeps you glued to your television screen. Also, the scene in the hospital was not impressive since there was no basic medical equipment around. Khala Farida made an appearance after weeks and that too was highly unconvincing.
Final Thoughts
This episode had one of the most important developments in the story to its credit. The family politics tends to be tedious to sit through especially when the scenes are repetitive but Asfand’s track is interesting enough to keep you coming back for more. The fact that Nasir is completely out of the picture is impossible to ignore and a big flaw in the narrative.
Web series are all the rage these days and all over the world, the medium is becoming more and more successful. People find it convenient and enjoy it easily. Wajaht Rauf is making a web series and it has a very interesting cast. It was announced previously that none other than Mehwish Hayat will be playing the lead role and Asad Siddiqui is also an important part of the series.
Wajaht Rauf has made feature films before this like Karachi Se Lahore, Lahore Se Aagay and has already announced the third instalment Karachi Se Lahore 3. This web series will be his first ever though. Azfar Rehman is the new addition to the web series and he will be playing a very special character.
Mehwish is totally gotten into the role and people will be able to watch the web series very soon. She was previously seen in feature film Load Wedding which released on Eid ul Adha.
Some women fear the fire, some simply become it. Did you already guess who I am talking about? Yes, she could possibly be another Mahira Khan in the making. Anyway, nobody knows anything about the future. So, let’s live in the moment. Not just the moments but she is the one who makes every frame look beautiful. She lights up the screen whenever she is on it.
One of the few Pakistani celebrities to have made it to the big screen & that too quite earlier in her career. She’s not just a big screen actor but also keeps proving her acting prowess time and again on small screen.
I am sure you know who I am talking about. Yes, that is our very own beautiful Azekah Daniel. She started her career by appearing in small roles in many tv serials. But what can stop you when you have got looks that could kill and talent which magnifies your presence.
From small roles to her big screen debut, her fairy tale has just begun. She did a horror movie called Pari which couldn’t do well at the box office but proved to be lucky for Azekah. We can see her here, there and everywhere after that. She is to been seen in an ensemble cast of Cheekh opposite Saba Qamar, Bilal Abbas and Aijaz Aslam. We wish Azekah good luck.
Sarah Razi got married less than a month back and now she was invited as a guest on Good Morning Pakistan along with her husband. Sarah got emotional when she came. She shared how she got married to her husband who is also her cousin.
Sarah said that ever since she was a kid, her Khala used to say that she wanted her as her daughter in law. Sara’s mother however said that it was too early to make such decisions and they should let the children decide themselves once they grow up. Sarah said that when they were older, they also felt that they would be compatible and that is how they got married. Sarah’s husband is a banker and he is a quiet guy. Sarah got engaged first and the engagement lasted a little over a year.
Sarah said that her husband was very cool and calm. She said that she needed a man like that in her life because she gets stressed out easily and is also very talkative. She said that her husband always handles everything wisely and sensibly. Arisha also came to the show and said that the house was quiet now that Sarah was married.
It is great to know that the newlyweds are so happy. Here are some pictures from the show.
There are few women in the industry who are beautiful, talented, gutsy and well-spoken at the same time. Mansha Pasha is one such woman. She has shown her extraordinary acting skills in many dramas so far including Mohabat Subh Ka Sitara Hai.
Her stylish red carpet appearances make her desirable. But wait a minute, that’s not all to this dusky diva who recently called out fellow artists for not having spoken appropriately off late at talk shows.
She clearly did not name anyone but it was evident who she talked about. She bashed Sadaf Kanwal for making irresponsible remarks about the #MeToo movement at Tonite With HSY. Let us remind you Sadaf has said that women should talk about harrasement just when it happens. Coming out later is something she does not endorse.
Another woman Mansha talked about was Hira Mani who recently disclosed that she had stolen her celebrity husband Mani from her best friend.
Last but not not the least is our very own Momina Mustehsan. After being slammed for Koko korina, she responded to Shirin Mazari quoting uncle Ben from Spiderman. Just when we thought Mansha’s comments were to be taken positively, Sadaf Kanwal snapped at her reminding her of not so cool dressing sense. Well, we think Mansha dresses very well. Recently, Mansha responded and this is what she had to say.
“I have no beef with anyone. We all learn from each other. I have learnt so much from my costars, peers and seniors. While we all are learning about make-up, hair and how to take perfect selfies. Let’s also learn about the real issues that matter in the real world.
As public figures let’s not reduce ourselves merely to
clothes on our back and use our voice for good.”
Sanam name has been proven to be a treasure for the Pakistani entertainment industry. Well, No. Not that we are pyschics. But ever wondered why everyone name Sanam is successful. Sanam Baloch, Sanam Saeed and Sanam Jung, all three of them are successful hosts and actors.
I mean let’s take a look at Sanam Jung’s career. She rocked as VJ, was a reasonable actor and is now a very famous morning show host. She’s such a powerhouse of talent and that’s not all. She has got a baby sister who is just as talented.
We surely always want to know more about our favorite stars’ personal life; their family, their close friends etcetra. We are more than happy to know that our very own Sanam Jung has a sister who is a designer. Anam Jung recently made an appearance at her sisters’ morning show with some of her best designs making a show no less than a fashion extravaganza.
She’s not just a talented designer but also possesses good looks like her older sister. We wonder why she never gave acting or hosting a shot? Anyway, as of now, we are just happy to see her go places like her sister. Her brand AJ has some wonderful collection which was exhibited by many models including Nadia Hussain.
What’s more beautiful than a handsome hunk & a diva being bffs? Well, nothing apparently. And we have a proof. We gush over celebrities’ banter on twitter & instagram. It feels great to know that stars like everyone else are humans & can be friends to each other.
Something that makes their friendship even wonderful is those sweet gestures they make towards each other despite having tight shooting schedules. As someone said, “There is nothing on this earth to be prized more than true friendship”.
One such pair that we love is Reema Khan and Imran Abbas. The two are known to be very good friends. They previously appeared in many chat shows, The Aftermoon Show With Yasir, being latest. Both are fond of each other & we love them for loving each other.
What makes their friendship truly exceptional is a sweet gesture made by Reema Khan. She recently celebrated Imran’s birthday belated at her residence in the US. It was attended by many known people including Humera Channa & their close friends.
Entertainment industry is known more for stars’ animosty due to professional jealousies, big egos and busy lives but here is a pair proving that notion incorrect. Friendship truly is a beautiful relation and what’s better than celebrating it like two of our superstars did.
If looks could good bring a good luck, some people would have been very lucky. Luckiest of all them would be Arij Fatima because she is the prettiest. She made multiple appearances in TVCs before finally venturing into dramas where she had a fair share of success.
So,we were speaking of looks and luck. Unfortunately, the two don’t have any link and same is the case with Arij. While, she was doing fairly well professionally, it was her personal life which made headlines a few years ago. She had gotten married to Faraz Khan. The two had instantly fallen in love and tied the knot in January 2014. Their marriage was all over the internet and everyone was very happy for them.
But the marriage took a dramatic twist when she divorced her husband within 10 days. It came to be a huge shock for the fans. One can totally understand, what the families had gone through. When it was dug out, what lead to their divorce, the actress cited it to be a family problem but the rumor mill was abuzz with some other news. A few picture of her husband also added to the proof that Arij was not comfortable with her husband’s lifestyle.
Arija did a couple of projects which did not leave a significant mark but she seems to have been back in the business. Well, what’s better than her professional life is that her personal life, too, is going well as she is happily married to Dr Ozair Ali. The actress shared some photographs which are the proof that all is well in her heaven. We wish her a great personal & professional life.
Zahid Ahmed revealed his honest and quirky side when he was invited as a guest to Sanam Jung’s morning show Jago Pakistan Jago. Zahid Ahmed talked about his family in the show and also about his personal likes and dislikes. Sanam Jung has also revamped her show. She has a brand new set and it looks like she also has changed the format of her show. She was not doing too many interviews before but now she is more interested in knowing more about her guests.
Also, Sanam Jung asked him those tough questions which most celebrities would probably just dodge. Zahid Ahmed however answered these questions quickly and with great confidence. Sanam Jung asked him that who was that one actor who needed to wear less make-up. Zahid Ahmed did not take the name of a female celebrity as a reply but took the name of Imran Abbas.
Zahid said that Imran Abbas was his friend and a brother to him but he honestly needed to wear less make-up. Sanam Jung’s reply to this was diplomatic. She said that Imran did not wear too much make-up! She said that Zahid was wearing layers of make-up right now so it was wrong of him to say that about Imran. Imran and Sanam are really good friends that is why she defended him.
Aamina Sheikh is the queen of modeling world without any doubt. She has also established herself as an outstanding actor and has a massive fan following. It is also a fact that she does not fit into the usual stereotypes of beauty in our country. For the first time Aamina talked about how she was mocked and criticized for having a big forehead in school and sometimes later on in the career life too.
She shared,
“In school they used to say ‘you have a hockey field for a forehead aamina’ and I used to find that hilarious! Even now I find myself quoting that when notable designers, directors, photographers, makeup artists, colleagues would admire it…many for tv to this day suggest that I cover it as ‘its too big aamina, it makes your face look strange,’ and ‘don’t tie your hair so tightly back as it’ll further recede your hairline and you can not afford that.’ I totally get it and take it with my stride, even take their suggestions many a times BUT not for a second do I allow these voices to create any kind of complex in me. These voices have never hindered me AT ALL…and I’d like to share why?
Because during my upbringing, my parents, my siblings, my home ground—they NEVER made any such comments. Such observations of one’s physical appearance was NEVER a topic of concern in the home while growing up—it was almost always about education, about developing life skills and traits, acha khana, acha pina, acha sona, timings, discipline etc. (Molnupiravir online) the only concerns in the household were matters that would later help us steer our lives successfully in a balanced and healthy way. That’s it !
Home really is the breeding ground of one’s sense of self. Please be mindful, create that nest, that safe space and respectfully raise your children to be able to take the shame out of body shaming ! It begins with YOU !”
Aamina’s message is right on point and one which needs to be heard!
It’s a fact that everyone wants to look beautiful. Well, if not beautiful atleast good. But in showbiz apart from being talented the modern times require you to look presentable to some extent.
This pressure of looking presentable sometimes make people take some serious measures. Be it men or women, everyone seems to get something done to look attractive. Some people have a good experience some don’t.
One such person to have had a gruesome experience is none other than our very own charming Sajid Hassan. His video went viral sometime ago where he stated how a friend insisted him to get a hair transplant & the experience turned out to be extremely unpleasant causing him to have severe head injuries.
While, everyone was worried about his health and some were even worried if he ever would be able to continue to act, Dr Fahad Mirza came along to rescue our legend. It was then everyone had a sigh of relief. Fahad Mirza, apart from being a dentist happens to be a plastic surgeon. It’s like he brought a magic wand and got everything right since he made sure that Sajid would be doing well soon. A couple of surgeries & he will be back to normal.
Well, seems like he was right. Dr Fahad Mirza recently shared a video where he is seen along with Sajid Hassan telling fans that the latter is doing well & has had a successful surgery. We want to thank Fahad Mirza for helping Sajid Hassan & wish a healthy life ahead to him. On the workfront, Sajid is doing Anwar Maqsood’s theatre play Kyun Nikala which is soon premiering in Lahore.
Zahid Ahmed is happily married and he has struggled hard to reach where he is today. He is very thankful to his wife for always supporting him. When Sanam Jung asked him to share with the female audience the three qualities which every wife should have, the answer was interesting.
Zahid Ahmed with his beautiful wife Amna.
He said that firstly a wife should willingly do what pleases her husband and she should not try to dictate to him. He said that when you marry someone you should do whatever it takes to make him happy.
Secondly, he shared that in his opinion a good wife is one who puts in the maximum effort in nurturing the children. He said that the husband are usually too busy earning for the family so it was a wife’s job to look after the children properly.
Zahid Ahmed also said that last but not the least, a woman should also do whatever she wants. Whatever she wants to be or do in life, she should do it because her happiness is also important. Sanam Jung also questioned as to why this point came in the end and why was the wife’s happiness the least important thing! This was more of a joke but a valid point too.
