Seeing Rishi Kapoor as Younginder Vashish in Student of the Year, one could imagine how versatile of an actor Rishi Kapoor is but who knew that Rishi jee has similar impacts on his real life as well?
Rishi Kapoor has been targeting the Pakistan cricket team since the ICC champions Trophy tournament started. Some of the tweets were so shocking that they took his Pakistani fans by shock and they starting responding to him with a fair amount of hatred.
And then came out this video that explains the tweets fair enough and it is going viral. Ranbir Kapoor, upon asked about his father using tweeter, says it all. He explains that the reason Rishi Kapoor talks trash is mainly because he gets heavily drunk after 10:30 and that he has a lot to say ( that we can clearly see in his tweets: Rishi Kapoor Tweets)
Well now we know why Rishi Kapoor has been tweeting so often these days.Thanks to Ranbir and as for Rishi jee, we hope he does not drink too much in the final.
No, it does not. As a matter of fact, how fluently we speak the language of the west is by no means a reflection of our intellect or skill. Our ability to do absolutely anything is not directly linked to how flawlessly we pronounce words like “plural” or “Canada”, (I’m looking at you, all the people who make fun of their Phupos or Mamos for “Canada”). Please understand that we can laugh at mispronounced words and errors in verb placement all we want but it will never change the truth that is English has nothing to do with our intellect or skill and by making fun of broken English we do nothing but undermine a perfectly good human being and degrade their value down to a few syllables.
You’ve probably already seen the video of Sarfaraz Ahmed with his mumbling English in a press conference after a glorious victory against Sri Lanka. Our Indian neighbors were quick to start making jokes at his expense and ignored everything that he had accomplished that day.
Because that is what cowards do when they know they have no comeback, when they’re out of their wits they go for your English. And as refreshing as it was to see our nation come together and fight against this, we ourselves have been at the other side of the table far too many times.
We drove a girl to an anxiety disorder because we couldn’t handle her pride. “You’re” and “your” is apparently the end to every online debate. Why is it so hard for some people to understand that grammar Nazism will never be funny, but it will always be irrelevant. The English left us free but left behind their most damning chain, the English Language and we gleefully tied ourselves up. We used it as the divide between rich and poor, smart and stupid, modern and backwards. I understand that English is a global language and makes communication with the rest of the world easier. It is a powerful tool no doubt but a lack in proficiency in English does not mean a lack in anything else. In the words of Alif Allah aur Insaan Star, Ushna Shah “We, as a nation, are so inferior that we believe those who can speak faultless English are above the ones who can’t.”
We also seem to forget that even learning English is a privilege that many of us in Pakistan andIndia do not receive and making fun of someone for having to express themselves in a language they do not fully understand is nothing short of cruel. It reduces confidence not only in the ones we laugh at but our own mother tongue Urdu. The introduction of ‘Why English’ summed it up by saying, “The expansion of English continues to impact in negative ways on other languages and their cultures. While English opens the doors of privilege and access for some, often the few, the way many countries organise education systems means that the English door is closed for the many.”
Muhammad Ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi became the father of algebra without ever learning the difference between ‘there’ and ‘their’. Al Jazari wrote The Book of Knowledge of Indigenous Mechanical Devices without a care for which colon was more appropriate. Our forefathers were some of the most skilled and brightest minds of their era and they spoke, wrote and breathed their mother tongue. If they had been judged on their ability to speak a second language, would civilization have been the same today? If they had been ridiculed till their self esteem was shattered we might be reading a foreigner’s name in our books instead of theirs.
So please whenever you feel the need to correct someone over a misplaced adjective or a giggle over at word pronunciations, realize the effect you may have and the unnecessary of it. Realize that they may not have had the same advantages as you. Realize that English is just a language and nothing more. Realize that they are just as human as you.
After the terrific performance of the greens in the semifinals, they are all set to play the final of ICC Champions Trophy. The nail-biting match will be held against India and the final battle will decide the winner of the champion’s trophy.
The match has already gotten a fire kindled between both the countries and the tweets from veteran actors like Rishi Kapoor acted as the fuel to the fire. Pakistani supporters also coming to the support of their team, stormed at the Indians
The on-going battle between Pakistan and India is no match for the upcoming battle in the cricket ground which will declare the clear winner. The fans from both the countries have their hopes high. The final match between two rivals although, will be a treat to watch but will be filled with tension at the same time.
The players from both the countries are preparing well for the match. The fast bowler Hassan Ali from Pakistan stated that he wants to celebrate the final win with zeal. Such confidence will be a much needed factor that will take us closer to winning. The team is also confident of Muhammad Amir’s full recovery before the match.
The final battle will begin tomorrow at 2:30 pm which will decide who will be blued and who will be greened. Both the teams are all set to strike while their supporters chant in their support.
Salman Khan’s latest movie that revolves around the 1962 Sino-Indian war will be releasing on Eid ul Fitar all over the globe. Pakistan, however, has shown reluctance in this regard and the cinemas are set to show Yalgaar , a much-awaited Pakistani movie instead.
Salman Khan, disappointed with the least attention given by Pakistani supporters who have always loved his work , especially Bajrangi Bhai Jann, said that both countries should preach peace and should not let the boundaries affect it.
Pakistan’s alignment with China in the Sino-Indian war is why we are not so excited to watch Tubelight, specially on Eid ul fitar and with movies like Yalgar and Shor Sharaba releasing on Eid, Tubelight will definitely be not preferred over them. The movie will now be released after Eid in Pakistan.
Nicklodeon is one of the most watched cartoon channels among our younger population. But PEMRA was not pleased with the channel when they aired an episode of show called ‘Winx Club’.
Winx Club is an Italian animated series that studios in America bought and dubbed. It has been around for over a decade and still is a popular show for many children. The show follows a group of young girls who are also fairies.
PEMRA has imposed a fine of Rs.500,000 on channel as in one of the episodes the characters were ‘indecently dressed’. They were shown wearing bathing suits.
PEMRA issued a notice to Nicklodeon on 28th April and after further investigations has imposed a fine of 500,000.
PEMRA is finally very active these days and nation wishes they will also look into the matters now more often and will impose acquired punishments in contrast to just issuing notices what they have previously done.
If you are familiar with makeup you know how important a pop of colour is for the whole look. Apply all your foundations and highlighters but you will end up looking like a zombie if that beautiful shade is not their to make your lips look plump and pretty.Yes we are talking about lipsticks. Matte lipsticks are everywhere and the virus has even touched our male celebrities as much as they had affected women. But today Rawalpindi Express went a bit overboard and showcased his not-so plump lips in a beautiful (for ladies) shade. Have a look :

Finally, the story moved forward considerably and even though Ahmed’s attitude overall was yet again a little too compromising and apologetic but the reactions of all the other characters made perfect sense. The step Amir took to ensure that Naila could never file for her daughter’s custody had to be the best part of these latest developments. Amir has always been shown as someone who is more practical than compassionate especially when he is dealing with Naila. He gave her respect and love when she became a part of the family but he changed his behaviour towards her altogether when he realized what kind of a person she was. He was the only person in the family who did not go the extra mile to do things exactly the way Naila wanted and could always see how she was exploiting everyone in the family. Although Naila was apprehensive about giving custody of her daughters but at the same time she was desperate to have Rehan in her life and was willing to give up everything. Naila’s mother was there even at the time of her nikkah to show her support! She has always been the one who covered up whenever Naila did something outrageous and now once again she was shown supporting her daughter.
Watching Amna and Mariam move on with their lives and finally coming to the conclusion that there was no reason why they should miss their mother was definitely more relatable than watching them miss their mother in the previous episode. Ahmed’s concerns however did not make a lot of sense. I feel like there are times when the writer tries a little too hard to make sure that Ahmed comes across as someone who is incapable of hating someone or even feeling upset for something for too long which at times makes it difficult for me to relate to his character. Ali Abbas has definitely brought out the best in his character but there are times when his character comes across as the male version of those perfect bahus and wives we see on television all the time, who never complain no matter how their husbands and in laws treat them. It was however great watching the entire family getting over Naila soon enough and thinking about getting Ahmed married again. Someone like Naila should not be missed. Everyone in the family did whatever they could in order to ensure that Naila and Ahmed’s marriage worked out but now that it is over, there are a lot of reasons why they actually deserve to celebrate!
The preview of the next episode was very satisfying and showed that everyone will get what they deserve. Ahmed will get married to someone who deserves a loving person like him. Naila never gave him the love he deserved therefore he will value his new wife even more now. Naila and Rehan’s marriage however will not turn out to be perfect; I am waiting to see how this particular part of their track is covered. So far, Titlee has been very convincing, there are very few moments when you question certain reactions from the characters, otherwise it has been logical and easy to relate to. The drama has been stretched a great deal in these past few weeks but there is definitely hope now that we are heading towards an ending most viewers will like.
How many of you watched this episode? Do share your thoughts about it.
There were times when people would wait for their favourite dramas to be on aired on PTV . Be it a serial that would give you tears like ansoo , hawayen or be it a comedy sitcom like family front that would make you burst with laughter . The wait was endless , so was the curiosity.
The simplicity of the actresses along with their natural beauties , the hard work of directors and the refined works of the writers ,set the dramas apart. The stories depicted lives anyone could relate to . With no dramatic effects , the realistic touch would prove icing on the cake.
The legends Bushra Ansaari , Shagufta Ijaz , Talat Hussain , Rubina , Saba Hameed Showcased a fair amount of brilliance through their acting skills
Today , on the contrary , we live in times when we have dramas in large quantity but the quality remains equally less.
We no longer are aware of the numerous soaps being aired . The days are long gone when PakistanI dramas would leave everlasting effects on us. Starting from 1960s , we find that the elements which were once the soul of dramas are now missing completely . The quality content , the wonderous direction , the depiction and promotion of our national language and the beautiful culture of our own country are now replaced by the quantity of content , the unrealistic and weak direction , promotion of language and trends which have never been parts of our culture
Nowadays , we watch dramas not for the sake of entertainment but for jolting down the fashion trends and the grandeur portrayed in dramas.
With the start of 21st century , our drama industry began to collapse by following the footsteps of Indian drama industry . The dramas like Kasak , Tere pehlo mein , Bahu rani , Mehndi Vale Hath,Vo rishte vo Naate are the epitomes of the Indian culture. The deviation from the culture resulted in a devastated drama industry and reviving it was the need of the hour .
The quest to earn more ratings than providing quality entertainment , the race for better rankings among the TV channels, lack of quality content from the writers and poor directions from the directors greatly influenced the downfall of drama industry.
Then came the times when the Pakistani drama industry was revived ( well, to some extent ) . With dramas like Alpha Bravo Charlie , Meri zaat zara e benishan , humsafar , Khuda ki Basti ,Dur e shehwar, Dastan , Daam , vasal , bol Meri machli , Udaari and many others which revolved around the dilemmas of our society, our industry took a new turn.
These were the times when people not only from Pakistan but from all over the world started admiring the works prouduced in Pakistan . The industry evolved and great writers and directors including Anwar Maqsood, Shoaib Mansoor, Umerah Ahmed , Wasi Shah , Sarmad khusat, Mehreen Jabbar , Yasir Nawaz , Saaif Hassan and Sakina Samo, Momina Duraid emerged. It is because of their hard work that the industry rose back to success .
The dramas produced did not only influence the nation but also brought changes within the society , however there’s still a lot more to be attained. Life lesson along with provision of entertainment is the best combination any drama industry offers and Pakistani drama industry needs more improvement to get into the race.
Our drama industry has indeed shown an extra ordinary performance since its revival in 2005 but it still needs a lot of backbone in order to provide best entertainment to the audience
Ohkay so, the production of Momina Duraid Productions, writing of Mustafa Afridi & direction of Ehtashamuddin; Mohabbat.pk is Pakistan’s first Mini Drama Serial that commenced this week & has got everyone talking but then what else can be expected when the masters of their trade get together & bring something absolutely amazing for the viewers. Mohabbat.pk can easily qualify as an intelligent piece of writing through which the writer has unveiled a lot of social norms & trends in a very comical way. The way the internet & social media has taken everyone’s life by storm is the main theme of the drama, where some people are shown exploiting it & some are shown making the most of it. All the characters are unique & have so much of personality but then that’s given when you know it’s a Mustafa Afridi script.
The characters of Mohabbat.pk are:
Dada Jee: The conspiracist & Facebook addict Jabir: A suspended Police Inspector Zoha: Video Drama Reviewer & a hopeless romantic Nazim:Shareef, God-fearing homeowner, too shareef for his own disadvantage Mrs. Nazim: The nagger & anti-social media Kazim: An angry young man & a gullible dreamer Munni: The damsel in distress Sikandar: The shameless opportunist Nagina:Amreekan Pupho Tehmina/Twinkle: Kazim’s fiancée Ehtashaam: Mohallay ka spy & the maker of Fake ID Hot Aliya Alone Tobi Maguire: Spiderman & Pathan
So, the story revolves around the families of homeowner & his tenant; Nazim & Jabir. Nazim (Anum Khalid), the homeowner lives with his wife Mrs. Nazim (Farah Shah) & his son Kazim (Agha Mustafa Hassan). Their tenants who are known as ‘Qabza Group’ are Jabir (Saife Hassan), Jabir’s father (Manzoor Qureshi) & his daughter Zoha (Sara Khan).
So, things get chaotic when Mrs. Nazim & Nagina (Nazim’s sister) have a verbal spat, that’s when Nagina decides that she wouldn’t allow her daughter Twinkle to get married to Kazim. Kazim being emotionally invested in the idea of going to Amreeka after his marriage gets upset. To add more to their woes, Munni (Beenish Raja) & her husband Sikandar (Hassan Noman) come to Nazim’s place because Sikandar’s parents demand ‘pauta’ from the couple, which Nazim mistakes as ‘pauda’. Just when they are dealing with these issues, Kazim goes for rent collection but is shooed away by Jabir after he intimidates him by showing his pistol which he would use back in the day when he was a policeman. This entire pistol intimidation scenario doesn’t sit well with Mrs. Nazim but just because Nazim is too nice & too scared to say anything to Jabir Yahoodi, Mrs. Nazim tries to rile her son up to stand up for himself & sadly its brunt is strategically faced by Zoha, whereas Kazim turns into a hero for his chicken-hearted family.
The Qabza Group could already sense that now that Munni & Sikandar have come to live with Nazim, he could anytime tell Jabir & Co. to leave their home. Considering Jabir’s track record of not paying rent on time, Dada Jee devises a plan which would guarantee them a permanent place in Nazim’s home because he is not only an intelligent conspiracist, but he is a bit too well aware of Nazim & Co’s sharafat & masoomiyat. Dada Jee tells Zoha & Jabir to keep their friends close & their enemies closer by displaying ‘munafqat ki mohabbat’ & in this case, the enemies are Nazim & his entire family. Upon Dada Jee’s instructions, Zoha takes the birthday cake & future dated check to Kazim & then she does exactly what her grandfather tell her, which is to instigate Kazim in such a way that he does something stupid & that’s exactly what happens.
Zoha being a video reviewer has a huge fan following on her YouTube Channel & all of her social media accounts, which is something that her Dada Jee wants to put to good use, that is why he stealthily makes the video of Kazim rubbing the birthday cake on Zoha’s face & things get rolling in their favor. Kazim is blackmailed by Zoha because more than living in his place, she wants a place in his heart as she loves him whereas her Dada Jee & father blackmail him for different reasons. Nazim tries to settle things down but just because he is simple & not too tactful, he falls prey to their trap & decides that Kazim will get married to Zoha while completely ignoring the fact that they not only intimidated his son but also blackmailed him using video as an evidence.
I loved how everything was linked & how one thing lead to another. I feel he has to be the coolest Dada we’ve seen in ages because I love the way he supports Zoha & her one-sided love whether it is for Pathan Spiderman or it is for Kazim. It was quite interesting to see Dada Jee being so tech savvy that he actually understood the power of social media & just because he knew that his granddaughter has made a name for herself, he decided to put it to good use. I enjoyed seeing Jabir & his antics too, just because he is suspended & can not afford to pay rent on time, he takes part in this blackmailing as well because he doesn’t mind living in Nazim’s house for free.
Nazim & his entire family sees Jabir as a Yahoodi who has taken over their territory exactly how Israel has taken over Palestine. Nazim’s family I feel is too shareef for their own disadvantage because even though they have all the right to give Jabir a notice, they in fact fall prey to their blackmailing. Nazim himself being too righteous feels that Kazim is at fault for insulting Zoha so badly & every time he & Sikandar bring out the issue of shooing Jabir & Co. away, they are stopped by Nazim himself as he is too lenient.
Zoha finally comes clean & tells Jabir & Dada Jee that she likes Kazim & just because Dada has got nothing else to do, he takes it another mission which he has to accomplish, which is to get his granddaughter the love of her life. Dada tells Zoha to spread the news of her engagement on social media so that later Nazim & Kazim can not back out. Dada also tells Jabir to spread the news throughout the lane so that everyone knows that Zoha is now engaged to Kazim. Things get a bit more interesting when Retired but the Dutiful Local Spy Ehtashaam tells Jabir that Kazim has a lose character & he is not suitable for Zoha. As usual, emotions get the better of Jabir & he physically assaults Kazim. I am sure that in stead of admitting their own mistakes, Dada Jee will now come up with another plan to make sure that Nazim doesn’t bat a lid on what Jabir did but in stead gets so engulfed in his own guilt that he forces Kazim to get married to Zoha by hook or by crook!
I must say, no one does justice to comedy like Mustafa Afridi. The way the writer has given so many flavors to this drama makes it a treat to watch. What I thoroughly enjoyed the most was seeing how Mustafa Afridi maintained a balance & gave us all sorts of characters, where we have Facebook/Social Media addicts like Dada Jee & Zoha, we also have Kazim who doesn’t even have a Facebook account. Where we have a very intelligent Dada Jee who keeps himself up to date with the International news, we have Nazim who is a laid-back drama buff. Where we have Zoha a hopeless romantic, we have Kazim who is a bit more practically in love with Twinkle because she is his ticket to America. We have Mrs. Kazim who sees Internet as the mother of all evils but then she is surrounded by people who are making the most of it to blackmail her entire family. We have Jabir who is sane but then even he gives in to his father’s conspiracies as far as they guarantee him some relief. We have Munni who is unhappy & contemplates about life but we then have Sikandar who is totally relaxed & cool with whatever course his life is taking & is not at all bothered to take control of the situation. As much as Kazim tries to take charge of the situation & wants to do things, we have his contrast in the form of Sikandar.
I must say while watching all the episodes & second episode especially, I couldn’t stop laughing as everything was just perfect, perfect dialogues, perfect timing, perfect writing, perfect direction & perfect acting. This drama might be short but it surely is sweet & has so much going on for it that you just can not keep track of time. The way the writer added the humor by touching the subjects of politics, Pakistani entertainment news, social media sensations throughout these episodes made me feel connected to everything in a very unique way. I even enjoyed the reviews of Yeh Raha Dil & Sang e Marmar, because I have reviewed both these dramas myself, so I enjoyed Zoha’s take on them quite a lot. References of Taher Shah’s Eye 2 Eye, Sahir Lodhi’s dialogue baazi ‘Are you God, are you Demi-God’, the constant mention of Israel/Palestine & America were a few gems that made me laugh out loud. It takes a lot of effort to convey comedy in such a convincing manner while still shedding a light on the issues that people might be faced with & I must say the team of Mohabbat.pk has achieved it phenomenally.
Also, a little news for the readers of Reviewit.pk, Saife Hassan was kind enough to let us; the team of Reviewit.pk know that he is the one who named this drama & he titled it Mohabbat.pk after Reviewit.pk. Also, the character of Zoha is inspired by us; the drama reviewers. :) It really means a lot to us because they have not only acknowledged the drama reviewers but our entire website, which is something huge. :) I remember watching a scene or two of Mohabbat.pk while reviewing Yakeen Ka Safar the other day & in that scene Zoha was reviewing Yeh Raha Dil, so I kind of felt happy that they are showing a character who is a drama reviewer, like I immediately related it to myself & after that we got to know that Reviewit.pk & its reviewers were the inspiration for them. As much as I loved Zoha’s Drama-Reviewer character, as much as I enjoyed seeing how enthusiastically she was voicing her opinions regarding the wrongs (according to her) that were shown in our dramas & as much as I laughed at seeing how casually she was into blackmailing, I must say the drama reviewers of Reviewit.pk are completely different from her haha! ;)
I must say all the actors who have performed in Mohabbat.pk have such a perfect comic timing because it is a pre-requisite to make any comedy work. Manzoor Qureshi, Saife Hassan, Farah Shah, Sara Khan & Hassan Noman deserve a special mention here because of the flawless portrayal of their characters. We all are by now well aware of Mustafa Afridi’s wit so the moment I knew he is the writer, I knew I was in for a ride. Ehtashaamuddin deserves full marks for directing this drama to perfection like everything about this drama is just perfect. I can’t wait for next set of episodes already as the precap suggested a lot more blackmailing, comedy & drama. Please share your thoughts about the first three episodes of Mohabbat.pk.
After the outrageous attacks on Pakistan cricket team by the Indian actor Rishi Kapoor in his tweets, the Pakistanis are keen to watch the Pakistan team beating Indians in the final match of ICC Championship which will be held on Sunday.
Rishi Kapoor’s mockery on the greens made the Pakistan team supporters quite angry. In his latest tweet he criticized the greens by calling the Indian players their father.
“PCB. Cricket team bhejna please.Earlier Hockey ya Kho Kho team bhejin thin. Kyon ki 18th June(Fathers Day) Baap khel raha tumhare saath lol”
This is what he said in his tweet and who could have come up with a better reply to this than our very own Sheikh Rasheed Sahab ? In his reply to Rishi Kapoor, he tweeted:
“Jin k Baap daado ko Pakistan nay paal pos k bheja ho ab woh humay dars dyngay Fathers day ka,” “The same people will teach Pakistanis about Fathers Day whose forefathers were raised by the country itself.”
<blockquote class=”twitter-tweet” data-lang=”en”><p lang=”tl” dir=”ltr”>Jin k Baap daado ko Pakistan nay paal pos k bheja ho ab woh humay dars dyngay Fathers day ka. <a href=”https://t.co/HWCuXkHjyQ”>https://t.co/HWCuXkHjyQ</a></p>— Sheikh Rashid Ahmad (@ShkhRasheed) <a href=”https://twitter.com/ShkhRasheed/status/875496195317129219″>June 15, 2017</a></blockquote>

The cold war continues between the Pakistani and Indian cricket fans and the final match will now decide who will be the winner but one thing worth remembering is that we should not try to let others down like this. Sportsman spirit is much needed here.
Elif Khan, a Turkish national with strong grip on Bollywood dance has managed to get the attention of followers from all over the globe. Her beautiful looks along with brilliant dancing skills earn her a great deal of praise. She has fans not only in India but in Pakistan as well.
Elif has never failed to surprise the followers. Be it classical dance, hip-hop, belly dance or typical Bollywood dance, she manages to do justice with each forte.
To amaze the followers like always, Elif chooses a Pakistani song this time around and It is surprisingly better than the original. Here is the dance video for you all to have a look at
Sajal Ali is debuting in Bollywood with Mom. The star will be seen with none other than Sridevi playing her Mom and Adnan Siddiqui her dad. The movie looks like a mystery from trailer. It also stars Akshay Khanna and Nawaz ud Din Siddiqui. She looks breath-taking in the trailer and shines on the poster as well.
The new song from the movie O Sona Tere Liye sung by Arijit Singh is peaceful and a treat for ears. Have a look:
Sajal looks amazing in every frame and as from her previous performances we are certain she will shine in this one too. We are totally looking forward to the movie!
Upcoming biopic of Qandeel Baloch starring Saba Qamar is the talk of the town these days. Qandeel as everyone knows was quiet a controversial person and she died in very unfortunate circumstances. Playing Qandeel is quiet a challenge and Saba really looks she is up for it:
Talking to mid-day she said:“I can do regular roles at any point in my career, but it’s good to do something my fans will remember me for.” She totally backed Qandeel baloch as she said she was exploited: “The perception was that Qandeel Baloch made inappropriate videos, but no one knows why she did it… She did it to earn money and support her family. She wasn’t educated, but dreamt of becoming famous. She didn’t have any other option to fulfill her dream apart from taking to social media. She tried to do regular jobs, but wherever she went, she was exploited.”
Saba further said people should also be blamed for making her viral: “If anyone, it’s the people who need to be blamed for making Qandeel a social media sensation. If no one had followed her, she would not have made what she did. It’s they who are responsible for her death.”
Saba also said she faced a lot of criticism when first look of the film was released:“When we released the poster, the abuses poured in. If they are expecting an entertaining show, they will be disappointed. We are going to showcase the difficulties she faced, not glorify her. Either this show manages to change the way our community thinks, or I die doing it.”
Baaghi looks promising. Best of luck to all people working in the telefilm.
The exam season is ending and for many the business of entry tests and university applications is just beginning. Regardless of how exams went and what future tests are in store for us, everyone is anxious either for themselves or someone they love. From a young age we’ve been told that these exams will set the path for our future and if we want success we have to ace these. There’s no other way around it, what we do right now will set the tone for everything to come in our future. But that isn’t entirely true. Sometimes we think we want something but the universe sets us in a track we could’ve never imagined for ourselves and it’s better than anything we hoped! So maybe right now you might feel like you won’t get into the university you’d always wanted and it may feel like your life is over but maybe you were meant for bigger and better things. These celebrities certainly thought they were on the right track but a change of fate made them the stars we all love and adore today. Can you imagine if Hamza Ali Abbasi had stayed as a Police officer? We’d never get the outspoken and straightforward Man Mayal star!
1. Junaid Jamshed
The late Junaid graduated from Yanbu’ al Bahr in Saudi Arabia with hopes of joining the Pakistani Air Force as a fighter pilot but couldn’t do so because of his weak eyesight. He then joined the University of Engineering and Technology in Lahore, to study mechanical engineering, getting his degree in 1990. He worked with PAF as a civilian contractor and had a short career in aeronautical engineering as well.
How did music make its way into his life and lifted him to stardom?
In 1983, Jamshed, while still a student, began performing in Islamabad and Peshawar University. During one of his performances, he was supposed to meet with Rohail Hyatt, who was searching for some talent to join his band ‘Vital Signs’ but couldn’t because of bad weather. It was four years after the two met again and Jamshed was added to the singing group. All’s well that ends well!
2. Mahira Khan
Mahira did her O’Levels from Foundation Public School in Karachi before moving to The States to complete her high school education and then joined the University of Southern California for her bachelor’s during which time she had to work as a cashier in Rite Aid to pay for her schooling. Her duties included closing the store at night, washing toilets and mopping floors! Just goes to show that there is honor in every work and a tough start does not mean a tough end, look at her now! Although she was unable to finish her degree she has expressed wishes to go back and do so.
3. Hamza Ali Abbasi
Hamza had been interested in the theater from a very young age. After completing his higher studies, he also got a degree for International Relations from abroad and came back to Pakistan to study it further for his Masters from Quaid-E-Azam University. Following the wishes of his mother, he gave the highly competitive CSS exams and secured a position for himself in the Police Force. However, he soon resigned to focus on his acting career even though it severed his relationship with his mother. Sometimes you have to sacrifice to do the things you love.
4. Fahad Mirza
Fahad completed his MBBS from Dow Medical College and trained in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery from Liaquat Ali Khan Hospital. He started his modelling career back in 2007 and auditioned for the Hum TV serial Bari Aapa, eventually landing a role and the rest is history!
5. Shahista Lodhi
Another on the list of Doctors turned Stars is Shahista Lodhi, sister of Sahir Lodhi and host of ‘Utho Jago Pakistan’. She received her early education from Habib Girls School Karachi and joined Bahria College for her matriculation exam in 1992. The hostess went on to join Sindh Medical College and completed her MBBS in 2000.

Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif has announced a fund for film revival and welfare of senior artists. This is a good news for the industry and finally government has realized its duty towards cultural development.
The statement released by PM Office said:
“Directions of the Prime Minister regarding Pakistan’s Film Industry
Art and artists are those trustees of the bright traditions of the Pakistani society which have played a significant role in keeping alive the national identity, culture and heritage at the global level besides carving a niche for Pakistan among the alive and conscientious nations.
Reviving the film Industry was the our top most obligation. It gives me immense pleasure to announce the biggest ever special package in the history of Pakistan for the artists and workers associated with this industry which surely is the fulfillment of yet another promise like our other pledges. Unfortunately Pakistan and its self-respecting people have witnessed heinous acts of terrorism in the streets, mosques and public places during the last many years. But by the grace of God owing to the sacrifices of our valiant forces and security agencies and unswerving determination of the nation, terrorism has been stopped in its tracks and incidents of terrorism have been considerably reduced.
The recent history is witness to the fact how enemies of Islam and the country targeted the innocent minds with misleading concepts which promoted terrorism in the country. The comity of nations interpreted our distorted identity according to their own perceptions.
The youth who are the future of this country remained captive of a scary mindset. To extricate the youth from that horrible situation and terrorism, we are trying to provide alternate avenues of entertainment to them. We are aware of the fact that quality entertainment revolves around availability of playing fields, recreations parks, tourism and cultural activities, the nucleus of which is the revival of the film industry.
Today I feel proud to accord status of Industry to the amorous body of films on the recommendations of the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage, which is the continuation of the policy that we announced in 1992. Apart from this, relaxation in financial laws pertaining to films and exemption from taxes should also be given. The domain of art and literature includes all those honorable people we call writers and poets. A comprehensive package will also be prepared for these honorable personalities and fine arts. Under this package National Film and Broadcasting Commission, National Film Institute and an Academy will be established that will have a studio equipped with latest technology and gadgets compatible with the requirements of the modern times. For the welfare and financial assistance to the artists I also announce the establishment of Prime Minister’s Artist Welfare Fund so that the dignity and self-respect of these talented individuals could be safeguarded.
Each nook and corner of this land of the pure testifies to the beauty of God. In this context the foreign film makers will be given special concession for making films on cultural, historic and tourists spots so that through this medium tourism at the national and international level can be promoted.
Special concession will be given on the import of equipment related to the film industry so that the bright and beautiful face of Pakistan can be shown to the world and the Pakistani film producers have all the facilities available at home for which they have to go abroad. We have to go even beyond this with a view to ensure that every person connected with this industry is duly encouraged. In this context the government has decided to accord complete exemption on entertainment tax. More concessions will be made in regards to the income related to film and entertainment. Special benefits and concessions will also be allowed on investments in such ventures which help in introducing our dignified past, exemplary heritage, worth emulating culture, distinguished literature and infallible beauty of tourism to the youth who are architects of our future.
To help the film and Broadcasting Industry and the fine arts I announce the institution of Prime Minister’s Film Finance Fund which I am sure is a rare step. I am sanguine that the inclusion of the film and Broadcasting Industry in the national milieu will give further boost to the Pakistan economy which is already striding on the path of sustained economic development. I am confident that these steps taken at the level of the government will go a long way in removing the difficulties and impediments connected to the film Industry. I am also proud of the fact that our land has produced such personalities in the field of fine arts whose imprint will help different nations to move ahead for all times to come. I am hopeful that our youth, like in other fields, will spare no effort to make their contribution in the domain of films to win laurels for Pakistan. In this endeavor they will always find the elected government standing with them. I direct the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage to present this package in implementable form for the approval of the government, after consultations with the Ministry of Finance and other relevant institutions.”
The package is based on recommendations by the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage, and the PM has directed the ministry to present a draft in consultation with the Ministry of Finance and other relevant departments to the government for approval.
Whether the packages reach the said parties or not time will tell. For the time being it is a good news for film industry and artists.
We have been watching Nida Yasir everyday in the mornings for a long time and she is always very expressive about her husband and kids and shares details about her household with her audiences. She had also modeled for various brands and names. But, for the first time she was seen on ramp with her husband Yasir Nawaz in Fashion Pakistan Week 2017. Hand in hand, they were the cutest couple and absolutely stole the show with their sizzling chemistry…
Being alive is a blessing , they say . There are times when life appears before you as a bed of roses but just like every bright side has a twin sister known as the dark side , there are OTHER times as well which can make you dwell into existential crisis.
1: When you intend taking over the world and you’re all set but then the oh-you-can-do-it-tomorrow feeling drops by and you bid goodbye to your motivational spirits .
2: When you see your ex getting engaged to someone else and you’re shut inside your room , crying rivers , cursing the couple and listening to -“dill ke armaan ansoon mein beh gaye !”
3: When all your diet and workout plans go wrong and all you do is – can’t stop eating !
4:When you know you’re multi-talented but none of your world-conquering ideas really work.
5:When you see your friends doing great with their social lives and you , on the other hand , sit alone. The idle feels make you realize how you’re so socially awkward ( sighs)
6: When all your friends are getting married and you’re still single , ready and hoping to mingle.
7: You scrutinize your personality , in search of talents and things you’re good at but ,in vain ! …you’re not even good at house stuff ! :/
8:And the most sucking moment is when you’re done with studies but can’t get yourself to decide what to do with your life . Oh the feels here are absolutely despondent !
These times suck , for they make you question your good for nothing existence and you wonder ” what even am I doing with my life? “
The super talented Maria Wasti has always been very professional and very original in all her performances. The actress has come a long way from her initial dramas and gathered many admirers along the journey.
Now she is appearing for the first time in a music video. The song is by Junii Zayed and Maria has explained that he is a very dear friend of her and she wants to support him in every way, including lending her face to the videography of his song.
In the heat of this season, Maria is shooting in a beautiful heavy gharara but she really seems to be enjoying herself. In her own words, shooting a music video is a different but interesting experience and the setup and and acting is quite similar working in plays, with the addition of music though.
She says that she will consider doing music videos in the future as well, as long as she likes the song and backdrop.
Here is a scene from the sets of video, posted by Junii himself.
They yet again proved to be the most unpredictable team in the history of world cricket by doing what nobody had expected them to do! They beat England in England in the semi-finals of the Champions Trophy 2017.
In case you missed it, which I’m sure you didn’t, Rishi Kapoor took a dig at Pakistan.
He took to Twitter and wrote, “Get ready to be BLUED now! We will BLUE you away!” he tweeted after congratulating the team on the win, got trolled by Pakistani cricket fans in return.
Congratulations Pakistan! You enter finals? Wow! Good to see you wearing our colour BLUE! Get ready to be BLUED now! We will BLUE you away!
After making headlines for sending abusive direct messages to a woman, the yesteryear actor is at it again and this time with the ‘Mango People’ of Pakistan. Pakistanis are finally giving an ultimate shut up call by curtly replying to the man.

We have heard about Pakistani stars working in Indian films and earning tremendous fame, but many known Pakistani stars have also worked in Hollywood projects.
The recent one to leave a mark in Hollywood is Kumail Nanjiani, a Pakistani-American, who never imagined that one day he would be a leading actor in a Hollywood movie. But this is what has happened as the 39-year-old comedian landed his first acting lead role in a romantic-comedy movie called ‘The Big Sick’.
The movie revolves around the story of a 39-year-old comedian who meets an American girl, Emily Gordon, and falls in love with her leading to marriage. The movie is set to hit cinemas on June 23.
The movie is filled with quirky, funny and relatable scenes and is sure to be a hit among the crowds.
Nanjiani and Gordon co-wrote the script and filmed the movie long before Trump became the president, and the difficulties which Muslims are facing has given a boost to the film.
“Obviously it would be great if our movie came out and people didn’t see it as a political statement because it really isn’t. It is just a love story and a comedy,” Nanjiani was quoted as saying by Variety at the Los Angeles premiere.
The movie was first shown at the Sundance Film Festival and its distribution rights were acquired by Amazon for a reported $12 million, which is termed as being one of the biggest deals in Sundance history.
Despite the ban on Pakistani artists, it seems as though Bollywood projects are finding a way to include Pakistanis. Atif Aslam will be singing for Tubelight, while Sajal Ali and Adnan Siddiqui will be appearing alongside Sri Devi in Mom.
Another Pak-India collaboration in the pipeline is Kalabaaz Dil fame, Aima Baig. The 28-year-old sensation is all set to sing for an upcoming film. Speaking to a leading daily, she said,
A post shared by Aima Baig (@aima_baig_official) on
“I am indeed working on a song from a Bollywood production which is a duet with my favourite singer. It was a dream come true. I remember being absolutely star-struck when I met the makers and the film’s male lead in Dubai.”
A post shared by Aima Baig (@aima_baig_official) on
“I think it’s pretty stupid, a political war between two countries doesn’t have anything to do with art. Saba Qamar and Mahira Khan, even Fawad Khan, I feel have done brilliant work in India and they’re so capable of achieving much more. I hope it gets resolved soon. I feel great when I see how filmmakers from across the border are still reaching out to Pakistani artists. They’re not backing out and I commend them for it.”

A post shared by Salman Khan (@beingsalmankhan) on
In a recent press conference for his upcoming film, He said those who demand wars should be sent to the border to end the warmongering.
“Those who order wars should be sent to the forefront and be told that you fight first. Their hands and feet will tremble. The war will be over in a day. Then they will sit across the table and talk.”
Salman further added, “Whenever there is war, people die on both sides of the border.”
“All discussions can be solved across the table. It’s a negative emotion.”
Soon after Salman’s press conference came to an end, Hindu extremist Shiv Sena criticised the actor and said that Salman Khan “crossed his boundaries. The way he has said this is really objectionable. Who doesn’t want peace? Why does he always cross his boundaries.”
Congress spokesperson Sanjay Jha, on the other hand, told CNN-News 18 that Salman Khan’s statement rooting for peace between India and Pakistan was a “sane, sensitive and mature one.”

In B town, the ultimate success of a movie is measuring digits of its profits at box office, and those classics that cross 100 crore mark are the ones considered to have made it big.
Hindi Medium starring Saba Qamar and Irfan Khan as lead has recently been added to this genre by crossing the total profits of 100 crore at box office. This humongous success is attributed to the the simplistic and relatable storyline, amusing characters and state of the art performance by actors.
The movie made with a budget of 22 crores has now exceeded the profits of 47 crores, and more than 15 crores have been gained by music, satellite and digital play. So in the game of crores, Saba Qamar’s Bollywood debut is leading the race as one of the best movies Bollywood has produced.
We see adds popping up on TV channels every now and then and we are left wondering “what’swith the different TVCs but same concepts?”
Yes, This is what we see happening these days, especially in the recent advertisement campaigns of Pepsi and Coke which show you how to put bottles to good use.Bottles filled either with lights or with money for charity.
Here’s what Mustafa had to say about the advertisement strategies and it is hilarious. He also points out the other uses of bottles.They have other uses too which can be trivial but useful (pun intended) and the next time you want to come up with an idea that has a bottle in it, do consider the ideas given in Dejuice desi bytes.
Assalamoalikum.. Allah bless you all with His abundant blessings this Ramadan. Ameen
Episode 10 of Mubarak ho beti hui hai did have some powerful performances but storyline has not shown much development. It was mainly about the aftermath of Aneela’s son’s diagnosis, and the odds Naheed faced as a result of daring to stand on her own two feet. Life is throwing her back at every curve and till now she is proving she has got what it takes to get going, and so do her daughters.
The part about her getting a new job running the school canteen and her daughters getting scholarships was a breath of fresh air. Her oldest daughter Iqra is such a poised and confident young lady and so proud of her mother.
The mother and daughters’ front is all going progressively but as usual, majority of the society cannot bear to see a single woman succeeding. So, Fariha and khala both are hell bent on making life harder for her than it already is. It was very hurtful when khala was sympathetically telling Naheed to have a big heart and accept that she is flawed, like it’s some inherent deficiency of hers that she gives birth to females but Naheed is senseible enough to refuse being pitied or guilt trapped on a ridiculous accusation. Khala is also doubtful of Naheed’s character because of their neighbor, without any consideration of her plight.
Naheed had gone to her brother’s house to celebrate the arrival of his son with all the fanfare of a first time phuphoo but was met with sarcasm and meanness from Fariha. That woman is not capable of anything else. Shehzad’s attitude was a bit better not for long, as shown in the promo, thanks to Fariha and khala’s venom against Naheed.
Naheed is portraying all the common problems of a single working mother today. She can have all the will and resilience in the world but she still needs child support to go out to work. In Naheed’s case, she has to rely on a stranger like her landlord khala for her infant, even though she is totally disinterested in caring but there is no other option for her. That resulted in a head injury for her baby, causing her so much distress. The neighbour was again there for the much needed help, but unfortunately they caught Fariha’s eye and how she is going to exploit that knowledge is no one’s guess…
In Sadiq and Aneela’s household, nothing much has changed.. life remains the same there with Sadiq a stupid spineless puppet in Aneela’s hands, his mother left sick and alone with only her guilt and regrets to keep her company and Aneela under the impression that because she is cunning, she can cover all her misdemeanours with lies and tears and makeup in front of Sajid, which frankly she does a little too much of. Especially for someone who is worried about her mentally challenged son and who has to do housework like cleaning and cooking ..
We Pakistanis as a nation have a tendency to judge others and pass mean comments on them. From body shaming to poking noses in matters of other people’s lives we have done it all.
Let me start where all this judging starts. We all have witnessed situations in our friends and relatives where there were couples with one pretty person and the other average and deny it if you will but we all were there giving statements like “Allah kare Maa jaisa ho” or “Maa to ainvayin hai iski baap pe jaaye” when we were informed of the good news by the couple. So the poor child was subjected to judgments even before he/she was born. We said that sitting among our families and no one stopped us on this scrutiny. Obviously the baby will grow into a judgmental person as his surroundings suggest.
We have developed a horrible habit of judging others and passing comments on them when we do not even know them. The reason I have brought this topic up today is because I was going through my timeline few days back I saw a picture of Sajal Ali with Jhanvi Kapoor (daughter of Sridevi). The girls were standing in cold and were covered in full clothes. I REPEAT covered in full clothes. See the picture:
The picture was criticized as Sajal is doing an Indian movie by some people. To them I will give the benefit of doubt as our relation with India can lead to that. But there was a person who abused Sajal on this and his language was so hideous that my mind is still on fire and I obviously cannot quote that here. That incident lead me to search on how our actresses are subjected to this bullying behavior every day. I admit this happens all over the world but the kind of language we use here and the behaviour we showcase is beyond explanation. So I typed the names of some of our top actresses on Google Images and see what I found:
All over the world when you type the names of stars on the search bar you find news about their new projects, the events they attended or about what was going on in their personal lives and what we are getting here is:
“Dekhiye Mehwish Hayat ne be hayai ki inteha karr di. Jann’ne ke liye link pe click karein.”
Is this a way to attract audience by humiliating someone? By using such demeaning language about a woman who works, is independent and is trying to play her part in the society.
I am not implying here that dresses worn by our actresses or the lifestyles they adopt are the righteous or goes with the spirit of religion but do we have the right to bully them and slut shame them and call them names when we do not even know these ladies personally and the same religion has taught us to show tolerance and never disrespect anyone. All they are doing is working day and night; shootings, promotions and what not and here we are staring at our mobile screens and talking ill about them; ill to the level of abusing them and bashing their families. And I am not show casing myself as a feminist here because I believe men and women both should be respected equally but why the same nation didn’t shame Fawad Khan on playing a gay role in an Indian film. Because to me it was far worse than Humaima Malik’s risqué role in Raja Natwarlal and Humaima’s role wasn’t acceptable either.
The other problem which is seen on daily basis is disrespect shown by people on Instagram mostly when these actresses share their pictures with fans who actually value them. I saw many people calling them fat, old, ugly and even kaali. Is getting old something unique? Is being fat or dark a bad thing? Have you forgotten the legacy you carry and essence of your religion when you were taught by your Prophet:
“Superiority is only on the basis of piety and no white is superior to black.”
What I am trying to convey here is if you have nothing to do with your own life and all you have in you is to call names and bully these women on social media, use your time as there are many other things you can do on the internet. Believe me it is a vast territory. And if you do not like their clothing, their choices or their lifestyles just leave them alone. Don’t see them; don’t comment on their pictures because NOT SAYING (OR WRITING IN THIS CASE) IS BETTER THAN ILL TALKING ALL THE TIME!
The hottest on screen pair Danish Taimoor and Sana Javed are fast becoming the talk of the town with their sizzling chemistry. Recently, they are making a lot of public as well as TV appearances to increase the anticipation of Mehrunnisa v lub you.
When they arrived at Geo Khelo Pakistan with Wasim Akram and Shoaib Akhter, the show became a huge hit. From the looks of it, their movie has all the inklings of going house full everyday.
Here is a peek from the sets of Geo Khelo Pakistan ;
Junaid Jamshed was one of the pioneer of Shaan e Ramzan and Jeeto Pakistan and certainly its most appreciated host. Unfortunately, last year he lost his life along with all fellow passengers on the fateful PIA flight from Gilgit to Islamabad.
This Ramzan, Jeeto Pakistan is not the same, for his co-hosts or his very loving audience. Each second is fraught with some memory that traces back to the times of Junaid Jamshed on the very sets that he graced till last year.
He had been the mastermind and chief executioner of many pious tasks, especially those involving helping the poor and needy. In 2016, he had promised to give car to the famous Kodu who is now paralysed and really wishes for a car. This year, he was gifted a car from the team Itself, not any donor, and establishing the goodness that only a man like Junaid Jamshed can spread.
