Talking about it, Mohsin Gillani said, “Now talking about Ayesha Khan I would say that there were many negative things floating on the internet about actors when she died. I deliberately remained quiet at that time. We played a mother and son in a 7th Sky project. Nazli Nasr was also playing a character in it, whom she used to say her Beti. Ayesha Khan used to throw the mic, which used to bother others. I made her realize that a few of her acts bother the young actors like throwing mics, she used to understand me. Likewise, Nazli Nasr was the one who used to message her feet, used to help her wear he clothes. She used to say to me, ‘You are now the witness that Nazli takes care of me, when I will be left alone I will go to nazli Nasr’. We discuss negative things. We should discuss positive things.”
He further added, “She loved to live alone. Her kids left her. They got busy in their lives. An actor shared a Voice call in which she told me kids send me money, which mother needs just money at an older age. It is their responsibility to take care of her” Here is the link to the video:

Mohsin Gilani said that Firdous Jamal is the biggest star of the country. He saw how his sons were showing receipts that they sent money for his treatment. He may not be a great person but how can you keep receipts of the money you have spent on your father. This should have been avoided and this is what he would want to say on this topic.
This is what he said:
Mohsin Gilani also spoke about young actresses who have been badmouthing the industry. Recently we saw Meharbano and Memoona Qudoos speak about dangerous conditions for women in showbiz.

He quoted how women like Maham Aamir slap people who try anything wrong with them. He has seen powerful men getting beaten by women who have tried anything. Thus you should not badmouth showbiz or leave it altogether.

Sarah Khan is one of the most popular Pakistani actresses known for her work in the dramas like Sabaat, Bellapur ki Dayan, Hum Tum, Raqs e Bismil, Namak Haram and Mumkin. She is currently garnering praise for her drama series Sher alongside Danish Taimoor. Sarah Khan also boasts a strong following of 12.4 million on Instagram. She is happily married to Falak Shabbir and they make a super adorable celebrity couple.
Recently, Sarah Khan opened up about her viral statement on feminism. She took to her Instagram and shared a long note in which she stated that her explanation of feminism is different than others.
Sarah wrote, “When I say I’m not a feminist, I don’t mean that I don’t believe in equality. I absolutely believe in equal respect, equal rights, and equal opportunities for women. What I mean is I’m not today’s version of a feminist. I’m a real, original feminist. An OG feminist. The kind that believes a woman’s strength lies not in imitating men, but in owning her divine femininity. I believe women are powerful enough to be treated like the queens they are respected, cherished, and valued for who they truly are. Women were never meant to labor like machines. We are made to nurture homes, raise empires, build generations, and lead with grace. Look at Hazrat Khadija (RA) a successful businesswoman, yet the epitome of dignity, balance, and womanhood. She had the right to work, and so do we. But she also valued the sacredness of family, of purpose, of faith and never lost herself in the race for external validation.”
She further added, “I don’t understand this mindset that glorifies waking up early to build someone else’s dream in an office, but frowns upon making breakfast for your own husband or raising your own children. Since when did being a devoted wife or a mother become ‘less’? A woman’s role is sacred. She can be educated, driven, ambitious but also gentle, graceful, and rooted. She does not have to choose one over the other. She is allowed to define her own balance. And lastly Feminism shouldn’t mean abandoning femininity. It should mean honoring our choices even if that choice is home, motherhood, softness, and strength wrapped in love. It’s a divine power. Let’s not trade it for a version of strength that forgets who we really are.” Here is the post:
A few days ago, Sarah Khan made headlines for her statement regarding feminism. Many popular showbiz personalities criticized her for her statement. Sarah said, “I am not a feminist. I believe that men should do work and run the household and men should be standing in the lines to pay the bills because I can’t stand in the queues to pay bills. I am an old school woman”. Here is the link to the video:
Majority of fans are agreeing with Sarah Khan. A fan wrote, “This is the reason why we respect her. She is the queen”. Many women are agreeing with Sarah Khan’s point that women should be ruling the house while men should be earning for their family. Read the comments:

It is the craft which is learnt over a period of time”.
Talking about her debut drama, she said, “I don’t know why people think that I have been working for so long in the industry. Maybe it is because I had been working behind the camera.

So I gave the audition, and I knew it was not that great, but they called me after 7 to 8 months. They narrated the character to me.

Talking about her divorce, Sultana Siddiqui said, “Our parents used to understand our problems regarding marital life. Also, we were always told that a good relationship between spouses has a positive impact on the minds of children. Women always strive to create such an environment for their kids because they are homemakers. A woman never wants to break her home. I always thought marriage was a beautiful relationship where there are two people who put their efforts in making a perfect home, like ours, I also developed a fantasy in my mind that marriage is a perfect institution. That’s why I thought that if I had a perfect home, I would stay in the relationship — but if it wasn’t like that, I would leave.”
She further added, “I was taking time in divorce because of my younger sister. I won’t say that he was not a good man, I would say two people didn’t get along well. Maybe he didn’t have the same vision as me for his kids. I was taking time because I was thinking about my sister, because people discuss the elder sister’s divorce. We used to talk that it should not be done. When she was getting married, I went to my home and I told them I won’t go back now until elderly people intervene into this matter”

Parwarish airing on ARY Digital is an important drama that managed to win the audience. It is all about the problems of parenting and the challenges of the younger generation. It has been quite relatable for many and fans are loving how the story has been progressing. Though the drama has largely received love, there has been some backlash too.
Wali and Maya in Parwarish are played by Samar Jafri and Aina Asif. Their love story is one of the main sub-plots of this drama, the two youngsters who are passionately in love. They go out on dates, meet each other in secret and the world is standing against them. People had reservations on sharing such young kids being romantically involved in the drama where Maya gets panic attacks for Wali and he leaves the house because of her.
Such scenes were getting scrutiny:
Director of Parwarish Meesam Naqvi has addressed showing teenage romance on TV. He shared that this drama is not about teenage romance but since teenagers all over the world do get attracted to their peers and get into relationships and they wanted to show this reality on TV. He added this has always happened and parents generally control it by force but relationships and romance still happen. He wanted to show that this issue should not be a taboo and parents should be able to speak to their kids about relationships.
This is what he said:
Meesam Naqvi also said that we show murder on television. Is showing a young love story a bigger sin than showing murder. Don’t those violent scenes destroy society. He has taken the initiative to show the young couple’s passion so parents understand what kids of this age emotionally go through:
Pakistani media have long been entangled in the web of sensationalism. Ever since the rise of private news channels, journalism has steadily transformed into a profit-driven enterprise. With every channel racing for ratings, exclusives, and the coveted “breaking news” label, the competition has often come at the cost of ethics. Unfortunately, this sensationalism isn’t confined to politics, budgets, or elections; it has seeped into the coverage of tragedies and deeply personal losses. News that demands compassion and respect for privacy is instead broadcast with dramatic flair, stripping away the dignity of grief in the pursuit of viewership.
We now live in a digital age, where sensationalism is no longer limited to mainstream media. YouTube channels and other social media platforms have also become key players in amplifying and exploiting tragic news. In recent years, we have witnessed several heartbreaking incidents where the coverage was less about responsible reporting and more about chasing clicks and cashing in on grief. News, in these moments, was not treated as a public service—but as a profit opportunity.
Humaira Asghar Case
Humaira Asghar was an actress and model who started her career in the fashion industry. She was modelling in Lahore initially and later shifted to Karachi to pursue a career in showbiz. She became famous after her stint on the reality TV show Tamasha. Tragedy struck when the actress passed away all alone in her apartment in October last year. Her dead body was lying and decomposing on her apartment floor for the past 8-9 months, when it was recently discovered.
The way the media covered it turned into a circus. The first thing that went wrong was her family’s reaction, as they did not want to accept the body. Moreover, videos of her body were being circulated on social media. It turned into a huge circus, and everyone wanted some views out of it. A case that should have been handled far more sensitively turned into a never-ending media circus.
Ayesha Khan Case
Ayesha Khan was a senior actress of Pakistan. She has served the drama industry for decades. She stopped working in the showbiz due to her advanced age. Very tragic news came out when people found that she had been dead for a week alone in her apartment in Karachi. Her building fellows called on her nephew, who opened the apartment, and her dead body was discovered.
This was huge news, but once again it was handled insensitively. Her past and her children were being scrutinized. People were making videos to call out her family and colleagues. People were asking for details about her dead body and whatnot. The news remained a hot topic for the Pakistani media until the next big thing came along.
Umair Jaswal Divorce
Umair Jaswal is a singer who has made a place in the hearts of millions due to his unique style of songs and music. He became a household name after he sang Sammi Meri War in Coke Studio. He was previously married to actress Sana Javed, and their wedding pictures went viral all over social media. Their separation was never announced, and Sana Javed got married to Shoaib Malik. These new wedding pictures pulled Umair into a controversy that was not his.
Umair Jaswal was being dragged in mainstream Pakistani media and on social media. He was being questioned everywhere. Though the star should have announced his divorce properly, as it became the basic reason for a lot of confusion, but since his ex-partner was the one in the news, it was more of her prerogative to explain the timeline. Umair is now married again and is living a happy life.
Aamir Liaquat Death
Aamir Liaquat was a politician, host, and entertainer who had a career spanning over two decades in the media. His last few years were very turbulent. He married Tuba Anwar and divorced his first wife, Dr Bushra Iqbal. He later got married to TikToker Dania Shah. This is what ended up becoming a huge issue in his life. His private videos were allegedly leaked. He went through another divorce, and he passed away silently amidst the whole controversy. Pakistani media’s role throughout was reckless and inhumane.
The way his death was reported became problematic. Dania Shah was filing cases to stop his burial, and his children wanted to bury him with dignity. Meanwhile media was giving coverage to unnecessary people, making it harder on the family. Even pictures of his dead body were circulated openly, which should have been avoided.
Feroze Khan & Aliza Sultan Children Custody Case
Feroze Khan and Aliza Sultan were married for around three years, and they had two kids from the marriage. It ended in a very public way as the divorce announcement came. The divorce was not just ugly, but combined with the custody battle for the kids, it became a spectacle.
As always, the responsibility ultimately lies with the parties involved, who should have exercised greater caution. Lawyers from both sides continued to share sensitive details openly with the Pakistani media, fueling public speculation. At the same time, the two young children were caught in the middle as they were moved through the family courts while being filmed. Watching so many cameras pointed at their innocent faces was both unsettling and deeply uncomfortable.
Firdous Jamal Interviews
Firdous Jamal is a veteran Pakistani actor who has spent decades contributing to the industry. His body of work is celebrated for powerful performances and compelling storytelling. However, in recent times, he has been in the media spotlight for all the wrong reasons. While he is going through a difficult phase in his personal life, talk shows and media platforms continue to invite him, often asking insensitive questions about his views on the industry and his private matters.
His family was eventually compelled to speak out on social media, requesting the media to refrain from targeting them or prying into their matters, as they were already enduring a great deal of emotional pain.
Amjad Sabri Family
Amjad Sabri is a qawal who has given unforgettable kalams to the world. He was also a very pleasant man, and his positive personality was loved by everyone. It was a shock when he was targeted and killed in Karachi while he was going for a Ramadan transmission. The news shocked the nation, and everyone was in tears. Pakistani media made a tamasha of this tradegy as well.
After Amjad’s death, his family was followed by the media in a very negative way. They were trying to reach his house, his very young children were pushed on the Pakistani media to get TRPs, and it turned into a circus. Amjad Sabri’s son has grown up now, and he revealed how his family had to leave Karachi for a while as they were going through so much scrutiny.
Qandeel Baloch Death
Qandeel Baloch became a symbol of defiance in a conservative society. A bold and outspoken woman, she chose to live life on her own terms, challenging deeply rooted norms through her online presence. While many dismissed her as a social media sensation, Qandeel was, in fact, a reflection of a changing Pakistan—one where women were beginning to demand agency and visibility.
As she rose to fame, she found herself entangled with influential figures, including politicians and religious personalities. Instead of being protected, she was relentlessly mocked, vilified, and targeted by both the media and the public. Ironically, the same Pakistani media outlets that criticized her often capitalized on her interviews and headlines to boost their ratings.
Her tragic death in an honour killing at the hands of her brother sent shockwaves across the nation. It was a brutal reminder of how societal hypocrisy, sensationalist media, and silence from the powerful can together lead to a devastating end. Few had imagined that her life—so full of rebellion and noise—would be silenced so violently.
Even after her death, the scrutiny did not stop. Pakistani media wanted every detail of her life, and it was splashed in the news. An image she had built came shattering down, and a story that was carefully curated became something it shouldn’t have been.
Yes, it is the media’s responsibility to report events as they unfold. Often, the people involved also share part of the blame for mishandling situations and granting unnecessary access to the media. However, in cases of major tragedies, the media has a greater responsibility to exercise restraint. Certain images and videos should not be broadcast, and the emotions and privacy of the families affected must be treated with the utmost respect.
Pakistani media holds immense power in shaping public opinion, but with that power comes responsibility. When handled insensitively, coverage can deepen wounds instead of informing or healing. It is high time the Pakistani media reflects on its role in moments of national grief. Sensationalism must take a back seat, and humanity should lead the headlines.
Saima Khan is the biggest female filmstar of Pakistan. She started her career working with the likes of Sultan Rahi and she is still working as the biggest name in the Punjabi film industry. She has done countless films and blockbusters like Choorian, Majajan and Mehendi Walay Haath define her career. She has also sporadically worked on TV and her latest stint has baffled the fans.
Main Manto Nahi Hoon is the recent drama written by Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, directed by Nadeem Baig and starring Sajal Aly and Humayun Saeed. Saima Khan is playing a powerful character of Surraiya Phupho and she has captivated everyone from her very first appearance on the show. Everyone is looking forward to seeing more of her in the episodes and she looks epic.
Surraiya is ruthless yet loving, strong yet vulnerable and she drops truth bombs like no one’s business. Her chemistry with Sajal Aly is phenomenal and they are both carrying Main Manto Nahi Hoon. But Saima Khan was not actually going to play this very strong character.
Director Nadeem Baig revealed that Saima Khan rejected this role multiple times. He kept calling her and she was rejecting it. He revealed that he has been a big fan of the superstar since when he used to watch her films. He always thought that no one showed Saima to the potential that she possesses. In the end, he called Syed Noor and asked him to convince her to sign for the role. She signed up and the result is nothing short of magic.
Aadi Khan is an actor who started his career as a child artist. He has worked in several dramas over the years and we have lately seen him in supporting roles in dramas. He is all grown up now and he will be making his film debut with the upcoming movie Welcome To Punjab. The film is written and directed by Shahzad Rafique and Aadi will be debuting as a male lead in films.
Aadi is starring opposite new star Zara Hayat. The film’s first song is out and it looks very old school Lollywood. We saw Mehki Hoi Raat starring Aadi as the lead couple strolls around in snowcapped mountains and sing romantic tunes to each other. The song looks right out of the 90s.
Mehki Hoi Raat is reminiscent of old Lollywood and Bollywood songs.
Here is the song:
The internet is flabbergasted by this song. One user said, “I did not know that 90s Bollywood was the standard.” Another added, “Who cast this kid with an elder sister like girl.” One said, “This is a flop even before release.” Here is what went down:
Main Manto Nahi Hoon is a drama that just started airing on ARY Digital and it has already hooked the audience. It has a galaxy of stars and each performer is more powerful than the one before. Saima Khan as Surraiya hooked the audience from her very first scene. She is powerful as the matriarch of the Amritsari household and she will extract her revenge by any means possible. Her love for her niece is true and she supports her throughout.
Episode 3 of Main Manto Nahi Hoon brought on some very powerful scenes. Saima Khan, Sajal Aly, Musadeq Malek, Asif Raza Mir, Saba Hameed and Babar Ali all gave their 100% to the dialogues. Check out the most powerful scenes that the audience loved.
Surraiya knew Mehmal heard how she will sacrifice everyone for revenge. She made her realize that she was also like Mehmal once but the world changed her into the ruthless Surraiya that she is today:
Sajal was the star as she is shown leaving for university. She stops midway and hugs her paraplegic brother. The emotions in her eyes shook everyone. Asif Raza Mir’s powerful dialogue delivery also stood out as he says that Amritsari women can never cry:
Saba Hameed’s exchange with Babar Ali was extremely powerful. A new development came into light when we found out that at some point Bin Yamin said yes to marrying Surraiya so bloodshed could be stopped. He was already engaged to Saba Hameed’s character but still said yes to that proposal. The dialogues about a man’s shaking fidelity and a woman’s obsessive loyalty were bangers:
The strong exchange between Miyan Sahab and Surraiya also stood out. Her “Sar e Tasleem Kham” was bigger than any other exchange in the episode:
Surraiya’s subtle dig at patriarchy by referencing hide and seek was another gem in the episode:

It is the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the largest standing amphitheatre in the world. Nida Yasir was looking adorable in casual black pants and shirt paired white embroidered jacket. Here are the beautiful pictures:
Alizeh Shah is currently making headlines after she started exposing all the seniors who mistreated her during various events. She called out seniors like Shazia Mamzoor, Juggan Kazim and Yasir Nawaz. Alizeh also talked about her viral fight with Minsa Malik in which she pushed her and slapped her in a scene. In her recent post she complained to Juggan Kazim about her mimicry of falling.
Recently, the senior anchor and host Juggan Kazim apologized to Alizeh Shah for her wrong conduct. She posted video on her official Instagram account.
In the video, she said, “I would like to directly address you Alizeh beta. I’m calling you beta because you’re my son’s age. If I hurt you, I’m truly sorry. Alizeh, I didn’t know you were offended by that video. You said you used to respect me—this really hurt me. Being a senior, I should have been a role model for you. I would never want to be a bad influence on any youngster. I sincerely apologize to you.”
She further added, “The video was four years old, and I didn’t realize it would be such a big deal, but now I understand that it was. You could have texted me—I would have immediately apologized. Whenever I make a mistake, I apologize right away, even to my family and friends. I genuinely didn’t know you were hurt or that people were trolling you. I’m apologizing on behalf of everyone involved. Now that I got the chance to make this video, I felt I must say sorry. I’m saying this on a public platform because you brought it up publicly. I was also bullied when I entered the industry, so I understand how it feels”.
Social media users are praising Juggan Kazim for her responsible act and humble gesture:
Shamoon Abbasi is an actor, producer, writer and director. He is known for his exceptional talent and his ability to transform into any character like a chameleon. The actor was a guest on Wasi Shah’s show and spoke about his life and career in detail. He was candid and spoke about several topics which many others avoid. He also talked in detail about his multiple divorces and he did not hold anything back.
Shamoon Abbasi’s personal life has also been always in the public eye. He was first married to actress Juvairia Abbasi and shares a daughter Anzala with her. He later married Humaima Malik and they got divorced in a year. His third wife was Javeria Randhawa and he has a daughter with her. He is now married to actress Sherry Shah and they are going 5 years strong. He spoke about the basic reason behind all these divorces.
Shamoon Abbasi shared that his marriages did not work because the couples were looking for different things in life. His ex-wives wanted more success, more materialistic things while he is a person who feels things come with time. He never says anything negative about those women as everyone has the right to expect something from life. He shared that both Juvairia and Humaima did well in their careers, far better than he did. Thus he is happy that everyone got their happiness.
He added that his fault lies in the point that he was probably not taking enough initiative in getting what his partners wanted in life. He was also probably not understanding them like he should have. He also revealed that he is amicable with his exes and they can speak on the phone if needed. This respect has come from efforts on both sides. He said sometimes people are good but they do not gel well. This is what he shared:
Nida Yasir’s morning show Good Morning Pakistan is a famous platform where she regularly invites her colleagues and fellow actresses who share their life stories and other experiences. The program often features candid discussions about other actors, their career, achievements and memorable travel adventures.
In a recent episode of GMP, Nida invited actresses Natasha Ali, Rubab Masood, Hira Umer, and Sana Askari. In the show, Nida revealed that Humayun Saeed also had an injury during his travel where his jaw got fractured.
Talking about it, Nida Yasir said, “Once Humayun Saeed went to Thailand for a film shoot, he was jet skiing and he slipped after which his jaw got fractured. It’s an incident from an old film’s shoot. I know this story because my brother in law is a dental surgeon so he got treatment from him. Humayun didn’t go to any other surgeon, he took pain killers till the time he got appointment at my brother in law’s clinic. He said that he won’t let any other surgeon touch him except my brother-in-law Faraz Nawaz.” Here is the link to the video:
Aina Asif is a popular young rising Pakistani star who got fame from her hit dramas like Hum Tum, Mayi Ri, Baby Baji, Pinjra, Pehli Si Muhabbat, Judwaa and others. Currently, fans are praising her acting in ARY Digital’s Parwarish in which she plays the role of Maya who is medical student and falls in love with his class fellow Wali. Parwarish is a hit serial and is getting more than 6 million views per episode.
A few days ago, Aina Asif said she is sixteen only and is trolled for her age. In the interview, she said, “I have always been very open about my age with my fans. I got fame with Mayi Ri when I was 14 and now I am 16 years old. I may be playing the characters of an adult woman but I am a child in reality”. Here is the link to the video:
Social media users are criticizing Aina Asif for her contradictory statement about age. Many said that she was 16:when she joined the industry and she claims that she is still the same age, as if her birthday comes after four years. A social media user wrote, “You don’t get criticism on your age, you get criticism on the mature roles you play at this age”. Another wrote, “You face trolling because you want to do romance on the screen at this young age”. A social media users wrote, “I think she hasn’t seen her face in the mirror, she looks mature”.

Feroze Khan was seen with Shamoon Abbasi in Akahra. Shamoon Abbasi was married to actress Humaima Malik. The couple were together for a year and then got divorced. This was a shocking divorce and Humaima has also spoken about it that she did not see it coming. The ex couple has been respectful towards each other over the years, though they have said some things about their relationship.
Feroze Khan is the brother of actress Humaima Malik and he is very close to his sister. The actor has always been very open about his bond with his sister. He worked with Shamoon Abbasi recently in Akhara and it was a tough call, given Shamoon Abbasi is his ex-brother-in-law. Shamoon Abbasi was a guest on Wasi Shah’s show and spoke about how it all went down.
Shamoon Abbasi said that he thinks Feroze Khan is a superstar and his stardom is real and not made up. He shared that he was close with Feroze when he was married to his sister and he also helped him groom initially in his life and career. He revealed that Feroze was extremely upset when that divorce happened. He has been respectful towards Feroze Khan and it was reciprocated from the other side. But working together in Akhara initially was awkward.
Shamoon shared that he felt the awkwardness when they started working together in the initial 4-5 days. He then realized that it might be difficult for Feroze Khan to initiate a conversation as he is Humaima’s brother. He therefore went and spoke to Feroze and they were okay from then on. He also revealed that Feroze got a little emotional in several scenes as the dialogues were representing their real life situations. He noticed tears in his eyes. He added that he loves how big Feroze has become and appreciates his stardom.
Mayi Ri is a drama that was a sleeper hit. The show was about child marriage and how it affects not only the two people involved but generations. Aina Asif and Samar Jafri conquered the audience as Annie and Fakhir and they both became overnight stars. The drama was being talked about everywhere and fans have spoken about how they were not satisfied by the ending. The demand for a second season has always been there too.
Mayi Ri team comprising of Meesam Naqvi, the director and lead stars Aina Asif and Samar Jafri reunited in Parwarish. The show is once again a hit and fans have been speculating if they will come together once again for Mayi Ri 2. The director has weighed in on this in an interview with Fuchsia.
Meesam Naqvi shared that the production house wanted to do something with both Samar Jafri and Aina Asif and they asked him if he would do Mayi Ri 2. But he is clear that there will be no Mayi Ri 2. He said that the story had a logical outcome and he stands by the stance he took against child marriages. If they make Mayi Ri 2, will it be a halala story between Annie and Fakhir? This is not something he stands for and thus there will never be a Mayi Ri 2.
