Whenever an international event is to make place in our country, we start praying that it goes out smoothly without any incident that could further taint our country’s reputation. The same happens when international stars visit here and lately the latter happens much more than the former. In fact, I can’t even the last time we had an international event in Pakistan. Due to the fear of terrorism, our country has been deemed unfit by various countries and international organizations, to host international events or even for international teams to visit Pakistan.
In these dark times, the football superstar Ronaldinho and the Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs proved to be rays of hope. These two visited our country, participated in a tournament and showed it to the world that Pakistan is a safe country to visit and play.
Of course, all the players were welcomed and provided with tight security, handled by Pakistan Army.
Ronaldinho expressed his gratitude to the Army Chief in the following tweet:
Pakistan Army has once again made us proud. A huge thank you to them for all the efforts they put in to make this event a success from our side too. These heart-felt comments from the star athletes of the world are a tremendous success for our country’s image in the world and they prove that the time for international sports to return back to Pakistan has come.
Actors are known to change their transformations for the roles they play. Not only is an actor’s acting performance important to portray a character to perfection, but appearance too. It’s usual to hear the actors gaining pounds or working out for a six-pack for their roles but the ladies seem to be a bit behind to these body transformation in our Industry. Well…not anymore! We are here to inform you that Mahira Khan, the nazuk si larki, is putting on weight for her role in Muala Jutt 2! We’ve already seen Fawad Khan and Hamza Ali Abbasi hitting it hard in the gym for their macho looks for the said movie, it was about time for the female cast to put in their share too! The petite actress is trying very hard to gain some pounds: https://twitter.com/TheMahiraKhan/status/884281971861540864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.brandsynario.com%2Fmahira-khan-toughens-maula-jatt-2%2F You would think Mahira informed of this in an interview or on the red carpet but no…she gave it away in an answer to one of her fans on twitter. Have a look at the tweets: https://twitter.com/latchingonto/status/884441826928852998?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.brandsynario.com%2Fmahira-khan-toughens-maula-jatt-2%2F https://twitter.com/TheMahiraKhan/status/884590149601865732?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.brandsynario.com%2Fmahira-khan-toughens-maula-jatt-2%2F Those who want to gain some weight.

Momina Mustehsan is a 23-year-old New York-based, Pakistani song writer and singer. She was co-writer and co-singer to Farhan Saeed’s very popular ‘Pee Jaun’ but shot to relative fame when she sang playback for the band Soch in the Bollywood film Ek Villian, on a song called ‘Awaari’. In addition, her rendition of the song Afreen kept everyone hooked and it wasn’t just because of the Rahat Fateh Ali Khan was in the duet. She has gained so much fame that now there is hardly anyone who hasn’t heard the voice of Momina Mustehsan and fallen in love with it.
Recently,she starred in L’Oréal’s TVC and though her hair looks great, we still are a little disappointed. As above started, there is no doubt that she is an amazing singer with one of the melodious voices of her time, but she isn’t that good when it comes to acting.
Her acting in the TVC seems very mechanical and expressionless. But, I believe that she can improve. We’ve watched our cricket players become excellent models and actors in the past years and acting and cricket seem further from acting and singing!
After watching a few repetitive, painful and staged episodes of Jago Pakistan Jago which were more of a narration of another day in the life of Sanam Jung, we are fully convinced that this show should be renamed “Aik Aur Din Sanam Jung Ke Sath”!! We are not arguing the fact that Sanam Jung has a massive fan following and some of these (more desperate we need to get a life) fans probably wake up every morning to find out whether Sanam Jung slept well at night or not, if Qassam and Sanam had a fight in the past 14 hours or so and whether Sanam struggled to make dinner or was she lucky enough to get dinner from her susral but most of the viewers do not tune into this show to find out the trials and tribulations in the life of the “self-proclaimed” housewife who is clearly not a housewife!
The reason why we are more disappointed in Sanam Jung trying so hard to fit into the role of a typical morning show host is that we expected better from her. She is educated, we also believe she is very intelligent and she is an outgoing young lady with a vibrant personality yet every morning she wakes up to prove to the world that she is just another struggling housewife and mother who cannot cope. By doing so, first of all she is not helping anyone and secondly, she is only promoting a stereotype because most housewives do much more than just looking pretty for their husbands, cooking good food and mulling over trivial matters.
In yesterday’s show Sanam Jung while talking to her other housewife buddies said ” hum jaisi housewives” which was yet another attempt to blend into the crowd (which we are not even sure exists!). It is a common practice for talk show hosts to share some personal stories with their viewers in order to make the viewers connect to them at a more human level but Sanam Jung takes this practice a little too far and while doing so she definitely undermines many of the housewives out there who actually find her daily struggles (real or not) annoying, to say the least.
We often hear Sanam Jung speak about how she wants regular people and her viewers to relate to her but does she really present herself or her life in such a way where regular ladies who come from all walks of life, who belong to different social classes can find it easy to relate to her? Sanam Jung obviously doesn’t really understand the struggles that generally women go through because she lives in a bubble of her own perfect world and believes in turning her non-issues into the issues for her viewers to either sympathize with her or see her as one of them, but most of the times or rather all the time, its a failed attempt because the nominal things that she complains about are things that other women have to deal with almost every single day of their lives. With Sanam Jung it is so obvious that there is a gap between her and her audience and she doesn’t really do much to overcome it.
Sanam Jung very often asks her guests a question and ends up answering it (in detail) herself because obviously Sanam’s experiences carry more value than all of her guests put together. We are certain that many other viewers who tuned into a specific episode of Jago Pakistan Jago in order to learn something new about a certain celebrity guest were terribly disappointed since the host does not allow her guests to speak a lot. Not only this, there have been times when Sanam Jung invited “experts” to the show and ended up giving expert opinions herself and the guests were left wondering what they were supposed to do there!
Yes, everyone wants to know what the hosts who grace their TV screens on a daily basis do and live their life like but Sanam Jung, without a doubt takes self-obsession to a whole new level! For any host, to share personal experiences in order to teach the audience is definitely a must but every time we listen to Sanam, we are left baffled as to what details like having strawberries in her fridge, eating semolina for her daughter, a change in her shoe size after her pregnancy, her husband switching the Air Conditioning on when she is asleep, her maid hunt, her daughter making faces at the sight of food, she being unable to cook would do for the audience? The way Sanam speaks about herself and her life goes to show that she is one of those people who don’t really care if the listener is actually interested to listen to the things that she is saying or not, because if she was mindful of the fact, she would cut down on this practice and make her input in the show a little interesting by not making it all about herself.
Sanam Jung thinks people who watch her shows are unable to see that she can walk the walk, but can’t talk the talk, in a sense that she presents herself as a people’s person, as someone who thinks everyone is the same but does exactly the opposite when it actually comes to the general public, the regular people, yes, the enthusiastic audience of her show, who sadly love her so much that they are unable to see her bizarre behavior towards them. Sanam’s attitude with her audience is always questionable, where she conveniently snubs them, easily shows her displeasure, doesn’t really do much to connect to them on a personal level, making it evident that she only communicates with them because it is the format and the requirement of her show otherwise she would never stop and talk to a random person or hear their story as she is filled with so many stories of herself that she doesn’t have time for anyone else.
Since it is a common practice in Jago Pakistan Jago that the hostess even snubs her guests if she doesn’t agree with what they are saying, so it makes us feel that Sanam should stop inviting people to her show, like there should be no audience, no guests and Jago Pakistan Jago can turn into a One Woman Show where Sanam doesn’t have to deal with people and where she does not have to stay quiet because someone else is speaking. Since Sanam has so many personal stories to share, she can easily run a 2 hour show by talking about herself, her life, her husband, her daughter, her mother, her father and her sisters as this is something that she normally does, so this is our suggestion to the Channel and the Producers of the show. However, the real question is, how many people would really be interested in watching that show! ;)
Fahad Mustafa gave an interview to Images where he claimed that he is the only star in Pakistan who has gained immense popularity without doing any hit Bollywood movie. The statement didn’t go well with Shaan Shahid who is undoubtedly the biggest star in the country.
Shaan commented on Fahad’s statement: “A lot of good actors have never went to India yet they have been quite popular here including Waheed Murad, Shahid, Rahat Kazmi, Usman Peerzada, Umar Shareef, Faisal Rehman, Hamza Ali Abbasi, Bilal Ashraf, Faisal Qureshi, Nouman Ejaz and Danish Taimoor,”
Shaan also praised Fahad on his work and asked him to keep going: “You are doing good work Fahad, keep your head down and focus on your work and let the people say what you are saying. You are the only actor in Pakistan who can do a TV game show and do films together. Keep up the hard work. Films don’t have rating meters. Every Friday is a test.”
Previously Fahad’s has negated Shaan’s statement that over-exposure diminishes stardom.

Sajal Aly has impressed viewers near and far with her brilliant performance in Bollywood’s MOM. The diva is going to adorn your screens once again in the form of drama serial O Rangreza by HumTv.
Bilal Abbas Khan is playing the male lead in the play opposite Sajal Aly. Two teasers have been released of the show so far and both of them are impressive and give quite a lot to look forward to. They are coordinated, colourful and give glimpses into the world of O Rangreza, without revealing too much.
The first teaser shows both hero and heroine in a colour fight with eachother. Their personas are shown beautifully in the trailer; Bilal is mesmerised by Sajal, forgetting that they are in a fight and just holds still in the moment in awe of Sajal’s beauty, while she is vibrating with life, playing with colours and celebrating her success like a girl who has not known much beyond happiness in life till now.
The next teaser shows some clearer dynamics between the duo. It seems as if Bilal Abbas is an orphan and lives with Sajal’s family, while Sajal being the headstrong and pampered daughter of the family enjoys dominating him completely. Somewhere along the lines, this relationship will take a romantic turn and we are eagerly waiting for the drama to see how and when that happens and the aftermath of it all.
Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy has bagged international awards twice for her philanthropic efforts especially to empower women of today. She is recently in U.K. for her live exhibit called Home1947 in The Lowry, Manchester that was a tribute to all the people that had lost lives, homes and families in 1947 and to depict how people of subcontinent had lived before the two countries were separated.
The showcase exhibits short dramas, documentaries and historical architecture to demonstrate the rich culture that had been the lives of so many people whose roots are from the Indopak Subcontinent.
Also in London is the world famous singer Bruno from U2, who has been awarded the title of “The Knight” from the Queen due to his philanthropic efforts. Sharmeen and Bono met in the city, had some pictures taken and discussed the efforts that they had been doing in order to acknowledge and appreciate women. Bono told her about the tribute the band had paid to women during their recent concerts where they were celebrating The Joshua Tree Album in London during this tour.
As news have it, Shirmeen and Bono also discussed the efforts they could do together in order to promote their philanthropic movements for the women internationally.

Fahad Mustafa is currently one of the biggest stars in the country. People love his game show and his films are becoming super hits one after another. Fahad gave an interview to Images and the actor didn’t hold back on anything. Look what he had to say about anything or everything; from stardom to bollywood he just poured out his heart.
Of course, you do tend to make some very unique wardrobe choices – some would even call them eccentric. You have often credited a brand called Cherry for your clothing. Who is Cherry exactly?
Fahad Mustafa :Cherry is a tailoring brand that I have been going to my whole life. I am probably one of the few TV personalities who believes in paying for my wardrobe and I do so happily because I enjoy devising my wardrobe with Cherry. They just understand what I want. I don’t believe in throwing about names of designer labels just to prove to the world that I am a star. What’s the difference between Cherry and our so-called designers? They all have tailors sitting in their workshops and if they all create well-finished clothes then there’s really no difference.
So you plan out your wardrobe and styling yourself?
Fahad Mustafa:Yes. If I look good, the credit goes to me and if I am a walking disaster it’s my own fault. I was hosting a live show for 30 days and blunders are bound to occur. I still think that I was less of a disaster than certain others.
You did indulge in a lot of layers and your clothes were very fitted…
Fahad Mustafa:It’s a chilled studio so the layers are not a problem. Also, I am thin – if I want to wear fitted clothes, why shouldn’t I?
Your game show may be a huge hit but some of the ‘games’ that you played were extensively criticised. Was it necessary to demean people by rewarding the ones who weighed the most?
Fahad Mustafa:The people who were playing the games didn’t mind so why should the rest of the world? It’s a game show and everything is in good fun. I am probably the only male host who interacts very easily with women in the audience. They hug me, shake hands with me, even high-five me. They trust me, I respect them and we all have a great time together. You should see the excitement on the set during a show – it’s like an India-Pakistan match!
But perhaps you could have used your status as a popular host to elevate your show to certain intellectual standards? Scriptwriter Anwar Maqsood commented that this year’s Ramazan transmissions made him wish that there would be a power shutdown right around show-time!
Fahad Mustafa:It’s easy to criticise. I’d rather entertain than deliver solemn lectures. If Anwar Maqsood is so perturbed by diminishing standards why doesn’t he train others to be like him? I prefer to give messages while laughing along with people rather than by sermonising.
In your show, you often make jibes regarding Aamir Liaquat Hussain, your main competitor in the game-show arena. Why do you indulge in such open rivalry?
Fahad Mustafa: I love Aamir bhai and whatever he does in his show, I still watch it. When I used to host a morning show for the Hum Network three years ago, Aamir bhai would come as a guest to my show on receiving a single call from me. I am a bit hesitant when it comes to discussing religious topics and so I would ask him to chalk out a list of questions for me. I would ask them as is and he would reply. I comment about him frequently on my game show but it is all in good humor and Aamir bhai knows this.
Moving on to cinema, your Na Maloom Afraad 2 releases soon and you’re also going to be starring in the sequel to Jawani Phir Nahi Ani. Both movies are expected to be hits but don’t you tire of playing the same kind of roles over and over again, of the street-smart, poverty-stricken boy-next-door?
Fahad Mustafa:I am like that – why shouldn’t I enjoy playing such roles? They have worked for me so far and besides, I also acted in Mah-e-Meer which was completely different.
It was also a movie that failed at the box office. What prompted you to be part of Mah-e-Meer?
Fahad Mustafa: I think every actor dreams of being part of a movie like Mah-e-Meer. I am Sindhi-speaking and yet I managed to play Meer to an audience that consisted of intellectuals who dissect everything to bits and pleased them to a large extent. It got me critical acclaim and as an actor, that means a lot to me. Of course, I would never produce a movie like Mah-e-Meer and if I ever do, I would keep it restricted to festivals because it certainly didn’t have any mass appeal. The Mah-e-Meer premiere was the only time I reached an event two hours late. I kept circling the cinema wondering if I should go or not.
You seem to have a very good equation with director Nabeel Qureshi who has cast you three times in a row – for Na Maloom Afraad,Actor-In-Law and now, Na Maloom Afraad 2. Why do you think he opts for you and not other young actors?
Fahad Mustafa:Nabeel will cast me in his fourth movie too. It’s because he has seen that if he works hard, I will work just as hard with him. We have done some very expensive shoots together and we have also sat together on roadsides and had discussions.
I don’t believe that I am a great actor but I am very hard-working. I enjoy my work. I also don’t see any point in putting on airs and graces just to prove to my co-workers that I am a huge star. Attitude problems, I believe, are the main reason why many of our actors aren’t able to succeed.
And you say this from your experiences with other actors?
Fahad Mustafa: Yes. There have been so many times when I have visited my productions and the actors working there ask out loud, “Who is he?”
Why do they have to be so petty? I am well-known in my country and besides, I am the one who signs their cheques. Why do they have to feign these pretenses in order to emphasise that they are stars?
There are also so many actors who have huge egos on the basis of their social media followings. Certain makeup artists and salons encourage them to behave like divas and they get lost in a bubble that disconnects them completely from the audience that they have to cater to. They will say that they want to be ‘exclusive’. Why do they want to be exclusive? So that nobody hears them or sees them? Why do they feel so superior towards the masses? They are the ones that have to accept them as stars in order for them to be successful.
Perhaps by being exclusive, these celebrities want to be seen as larger-than-life stars? Shaan Shahid recently commented about you that while you have potential, you are losing your star-power by becoming too mass-centric…
Fahad Mustafa:I think Shaan Bhai’s theory gets negated immediately because despite being seen in a very mass-centric live show, my movies are still hits. TV can be run by network heads and their particular favorites may be preferred there but cinema’s the one medium where an actor becomes successful on the basis of his popularity with the masses.
Now that you have gained a huge fan-base in Pakistan, would you consider expanding it further by acting in Indian cinema?
Fahad Mustafa:I wouldn’t work in India unless I got offered a project that was truly interesting. It’s certainly not my ambition to become a Bollywood star. A long time ago, Humayun Saeed said something to me that I have always remembered: India can be a bonus but it can never be a perpetual career path for a Pakistani actor.
I recently worked with Indian director Pradeep Sarkar for a commercial and even though he was very amiable towards me, we eventually ended up discussing India and Pakistan. It’s just something that we can’t avoid and I refuse to believe that any local actor who goes to India to work doesn’t get to hear comments about Pakistan. They have to curb their personalities there and why should they have to?
Additionally, our actors tend to return from India with surreal expectations from the local industry. We don’t have the budgets for the vanity vans and fringe benefits that are now part of Bollywood. Actors need to understand this before they start throwing tantrums.
Look at Javed Sheikh. He is one of the finest actors in our country and he’s working in productions from all over the world and yet, he gives respect to whoever he works with. We need to understand that eventually, we have to pave our careers in Pakistan. Why work against each other when it could be easier to just work with each other?
For one of the country’s biggest stars, you’re surprisingly humble. How do you keep the success from going to your head?
Fahad Mustafa:There was a time when I rode a motorbike and I travelled in buses and I haven’t forgotten it.
Right now, I think I am just going through a lucky run in my career. All my life, I have made some very bad decisions. I was supposed to be a pharmacist and I dropped out in third year. And I believe that one day, this phase in my career will also end. My game show gets very high ratings in Ramazan but I never ask my bosses at the ARY Network what the numbers are. I just brace myself for the day when the ratings won’t be as high, when I’ll be fading out. This is what keeps me grounded.
Besides, what’s the charm in having a bloated ego? I enjoy my work and I want others to enjoy it with me. The staff in my production company includes young people who are talented and are willing to work hard to get somewhere. And I never dictate them like I am their boss. We just work together.
Did you branch out into production particularly because actors can fade out with age and then, they can develop their careers as producers?
Fahad Mustafa:I like producing. My father was a producer back in the STN days and so I understand the nitty-gritties. Of course, as an actor, there is always the fear that one day you will not get offered any work. In such a scenario, I’d rather create my own content. Credit for my success as a producer also largely goes to the ARY Network. They have always promoted my work fairly and equally with that of others.
Three years down the line, your equation with the ARY Network is still going strong. Have you considered branching out to other networks as well?
Fahad Mustafa:Currently, my productions are airing on ARY Network and Urdu1. Should the need arise, I will work with the others too but I am satisfied with the direction that I have taken with my career. For three years, my CEO at ARY, Jerjees Seja, and I have been working together and we still get along. We laugh together and worked together every day during Ramazan. That’s a rare equation.
Besides, I have learnt that it is better to work with the people who want to work with you rather than run after those who don’t really care. For three years, prior to coming on board with ARY, I hosted a morning show for the Hum Network and I think I got completely drained physically and mentally at the time. Perhaps they didn’t see the potential in me but I felt that I just couldn’t match up to their particular favourite group of actors.
When you work with someone who believes in you, your work improves, you look better, feel better. My career immediately mushroomed after joining ARY. It’s just better to work with people who are truly interested in working with you.
Sajal is definitely flying high these days and no doubt the actress deserves this. With Mom getting critical acclaim and praises and Yaqeen ka Safar getting good ratings Sajal is really on cloud nine. During an interview Sajal was asked about her upcoming projects and according to the diva she will be seen with blue-eyed boy Imran Abbas in her next project.
It will be certainly very interesting to watch both the actors come on screen together. We are sure the audience will be bound. Most of the details about the projects are still under wraps but who will be the director? The extremely talented SARMAD KHOOSAT! Can it get more exciting?
Watch this space as we will keep you updated about further developments.

“The sole meaning of life is to serve the humanity”. The gist of life well described by Leo Tolstoy in one of his famous sayings. Our country is replete with people who are the living examples of the above quote.
The idea of this article is to highlight the efforts of some of those prominent personalities, who have earned fame for themselves and for the country in their respective fields. Now, they are on a greater mission of working for welfare of the lesser privileged. They were the heroes of their arenas but what make them heroes of our hearts is all the social work they do for the people of the country.
Imran Khan
Pakistan’s legendary cricket captain Imran Khan after bagging the World Cup for the country in 1992, announced his retirement from cricket. He is a gem who will always shine in the history of Pakistani cricket.
The Kaptaan of cricket and our hearts too, Imran Khan has always had great sentiments for humankind. He has been found doing charitable work many times but his efforts to establish ‘Shaukat Khanam Hospita’l is most substantial. The cancer hospital, which is one of its kind and the project is prodigious.
During the 1990s, Imran Khan served as UNICEF’s Special Representative for Sports. Then in 1991, he founded the ‘Shaukat Khanum Memorial Trust’, a charity organization that lead to the establishment of Pakistan’s first and only cancer hospital in Lahore.
Imran Khan, a philanthropist has not only invested his time and energy in the heath-care division but has also devoted himself to improve the educational system of the country. He established a technical college in the Mianwali district called ‘Namal College’ in 2008. ‘Namal College’ is built by the’ Mianwali Development Trust’, which was also founded by Imran Khan.
He has also founded ‘Imran Khan Foundation’ trust to assist needy people of the country. This foundation has also collaborated with ‘Buksh Foundation’ for a project ‘Lighting a Million Lives’. The project will develop several Solar Charging Stations in villages of Dera Ghazi Khan, Mianwali and Dera Ismail Khan.
Imran Khan is a doer and an achiever, a dynamo for himself, for the country and for the mankind.
Shehzad Roy:
A heart throb romantic pop singer who started his career with release of an album Zindagi in 1995. A youthful talented 18-year-old singer who caught the eye of everyone, soon conquered the music charts of television and radio. He prevailed to rule the hearts of audience by the release of his subsequent albums Darshan, Teri soorat, Rab Janey and Buri Baat Hai. Who could ever imagine that the chocolate boy at the peak of his fame will transform into a social worker and humanitarian.
In 2002, Shehzad establish a non-governmental and non-profitable organization ‘Zindagi Trust’. The moto of this trust was to improve the quality of education for an average Pakistani child. In 2003, the trust started a program named ‘I-am-paid-to-learn’ to encourage a working child to get paid for studying. The program was an excellent idea to discourage child labor.
The trust also introduced the public-school reforms at SMB Fatima Jinnah Government Girls School in Karachi to improve facilities, curriculum and teaching culture. Shehzad’s journey to improve the quality of education in Pakistan doesn’t end there.

The trust has also been found working actively for rehabilitation of flood victims during 2010 and 2011, earthquake victims in 2005, IDPs of Swat and HIV / AIDS surveillance in the country.
Abrar is passionate for what he does and it seems like singing and social work both are his passions which goes hand in hand for him.

Wasim Akram
Widely acknowledged as one of the greatest bowler of all times, Wasim Akram needs no introduction. He was the first bowler to reach the 500-wicket mark in ODI cricket and the only bowler to take 2 hat-tricks in both Test and One Day International cricket.

It’s a humanitarian service that operates nationwide and collaborates on different social, educational and health projects to improve the quality of life.

The most beautiful actress of modern times, Mahira Khan has a fantastic approach to dressing up. There is nothing that the actress cannot pull off beautifully and look extremely chic and glamorous in that. However it is pretty apparent that Mahira herself is most comfortable in simplistic attires. Her job however dictates glamour, makeup and the most modern of dresses. This time Mahira tweeted about her personal preference regarding going to events.
Her tweet was met with some very interesting replies. Here we are showing you some of the best ones.
Hareem Farooq apparently has the same ideas about dressing up casually and comfortably.
hamza Ali Abbasi was quick to reply that she can actually wear what and how she wants it and I think he knows as well as we do that she is going to rock simpler outfits as beautifully as she does the glamorous ones.
Hamza’s tweet got the fans excited about the exchange between their favourite on screen couple.
Mesha Shafi was also there to recognize and appreciate Mahira’s wish and remind her that she can fulfill it as she wants.
So now that Mahira has the support of her industry fellows maybe we are getting to know about the upcoming trend right now.

Doesn’t she look absolutely gorgeous in this dress? Possibly an outfit for a wedding scene or song? And look who we have joining her in this shoot:
It’s none other than the heartthrob Mohsin Abbas Haider! These two will be paired for the silver screen and we think that they look pretty good for it. What are your thoughts on their to-be-chemistry for the film?

As a tabloid writer we have to stalk Pakistani celebrities on social media in order to know about happenings in their life so that we can develop some interesting stories. Okay so for last 4 to 5 days I am noticing a weird trend that is being followed by Pakistani Celebrities one by one. While scrolling my social media I found out that some artists are drooling over a word called “Switched off”. Some celebrities decided to break from the internet and go into hibernation. It is totally understood that everyone needs a break whether it is work or internet, you do need some phase to evaluate yourself and give time to your loved ones. However the word “Switched off” is used commonly in all these tweets and posts which is strange and sparking curiosity among fans .Here are some tweets and Instagram posts from celebrities who want to be switched off for some time.
Now pondering over these tweets one can conclude that this “Switched Off” thingy is some kind of upcoming project and they all are part of it but it is definitely too early for us to come up with any conclusion, till then we have to wait and watch what’s exactly will going to happen. So what do you guys say is it some kind of a publicity stunt?
Whenever we see a happy couple we immediately want to know all the juicy details like how they met, what was the first thing that they found attractive about each other, when did they know they were in love, etc. Turns out, Sanam Baloch isn’t much different from us!
When she saw the adorable couple of Sadia Imam and husband, she went in for the gold and asked them all the possible cutest questions she could come up with! One of these questions was what in Sadia attracted Smaja Asghar to her.HIs answer had us swooning and thinking that these two are indeed a match made in heaven. Watch the video below to find out his answer:
What is that one thing we all want in life? To find our one true love, soulmate. Sadia found hers and married him. Good for her!
But, married life isn’t like a walk in the park. Every relationship is filled with ups and downs, highs and lows. There are some good days and some bad. Celebrities’ married lives are no different. They have their good and bad moments too. Sadia Imam married to Smaja Asghar Jalil in 2012 and shares a baby girl with him. Sanam Baloch invited the Mr.&Mrs. on her show and their interactions were just adorable…until Sanam asked what shikayaten the husband had from the wife. Have a look at what his answer was:
It is natural for everyone to want to look beautiful.To achive this, ladies resort to make-up. Looking gorgeous on the day of your wedding is a must because it (usually) happens once in your lifetime. Besides, it is a norm for our desis to comment on the bride’s appearance that night. However, have you ever thought of professionals making comments on a bride’s appearance? Well, we one one such bride for you. That too, a celebrity! Momal Khan married to Nadir in 2012 but Sanam Jung had top notch make-up artists analyzing her make-up recently and we have got it all down for you. Watch the video and learn what they thought of the bride:
Sufi singer Sanam Marvi and Rahat Fateh Ali have completed preparations to perform in musical concert in Karachi.The most populated city of Pakistan obviously has a lot of the above singers’ fans and are very excited to have these two voices perform in their city.
In an interview to a local news channel, Sanam Marvi said that she will be soon seeing along with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in a concert on the wish of the fans. Don’t we all love the celebrities who actually try to honour their fans’ wishes?
She said that the show faced delay due to the busy schedule of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan but now advertisements and promotion of the event have begun.
Sanam Jung has become a popular Pakistani actress through her amazing work in the recent years. But that isn’t the only reason for her popularity and large fanbase. She hosts Hum TV’s morning show and is always in the limelight thanks to that role. ‘Jago Pakistan Jago’ is a very successful morning shows and thousands of people tune in early morning to start the day with her.
A facebook page recently posted a picture of behind the scenes shot from the sets and the response that came in the comments section was downright disrespectful to her and disgusting in general.
PEMRA is the authority that monitors what is displayed on our national channels. It has been pretty active since the last few months; suspending Ramazan game shows, sending these shows notices and recently banning the IGLOO ad.
Behold, the champ has striked again! This time Bol news is in trouble with PEMRA. The number of times that channel has gotten notices from PEMRA makes one think it would be very unusual at the news channel’s offices when they do not get a notice.
The culprit, as usual is, Amir Liaqat’s ‘Aisay Nahi Chalay Ga’. The reason for the notice has been reported to be the airing of Sadiq Taqvi’s controversial comments regarding a serving officer of the Armed officer by the name and exposing the identity of an officer posted in a war zone. This was in direct violation of PEMRA’s code of conduct, National Action Plan and operation Radd-ul-Fasad.

Ayeza and Danish are no doubt the most beloved celebrity couple of our industry. They along with their beautiful daughter are goals for many. But like all normal couples Ayeza does fight with Danish. In an interview with Ahmed Ali Butt and Vasay Chaudhary Ayeza confessed about her fights with Danish and this is the reason she revealed:
Sanam Jung has become extremely domesticated after marriage and she is often seen talking about in-laws and day to day things related to weddings. Sanam acknowledged another gorgeous lady on her good gestures towards her in-laws. The lady being none other than Kareena Kapoor Khan and whose jora Kareena wore on her wedding. Watch video to know:
Her celebrity husband has transformed himself into a total film star. With three films uptill now Danish Taimoor is rising definitely rising high. But Ayeza is no less either; we see her in all awesome dramas looking all pretty but we still have to see her in a movie. So when will Ayeza sign a movie. When Ahmed Ali Butt asked her about this; this is how she responded:
Oh dear, never did I imagine that after watching an episode of Yeh Raha Dil, I will fall short of words & never did I imagine that I’d get to see any such episode of Yeh Raha Dil which wouldn’t really appeal to me. Sadly, this was one such episode of Yeh Raha Dil that I absolutely didn’t enjoy watching & it almost ended up becoming a burden to sit through this because all the situations that are now unfolding in the story are not making much sense. I don’t really want to say this but this & the last episode made me feel that certain things are only being added to drag the drama & reach a certain number of episode. What made me think on these lines were the scenes that were never-ending & the conversations that became so repetitive that I just couldn’t take it anymore.
I am sure those who like & understand Hassan’s character would have enjoyed the entire ‘comedy’ that was pushed in by showcasing his confusion & nervousness when he was trying to convey the new-found love that he has for Hayat because for someone like me, who doesn’t enjoy his character, I found it a bit too boring. If they had introduced Hassan as a confused soul right from the beginning, I think now all that he is doing wouldn’t have looked so odd & it wouldn’t have looked like he is not being himself because all that I knew about his character was that he was a very rigid & a sorted human being who knew his priorities & limits. Bringing flowers to his workplace & roaming around with a bouquet in a school full of students doesn’t really scream wise to me & all this while, I thought Hassan was all about wisdom & sensibility. Yes, right now it is being shown that when one is in love, they tend to do things which even they themselves never have imagined but once again, I don’t really understand how all of a sudden Hassan has fallen so much in love with Hayat that he is doing everything that is against his personality & nature? If they had shown him developing feelings for Hayat on his own, everything would’ve made sense but to see him doing all this on someone else’s testimony is unconvincing!
I really thought that Sidra being the one who knows what Hayat feels for Zaki would go & inform her that it is Zaki who has started all this & it is Zaki who is encouraging Hassan to propose to Hayat but in stead, she also joined in the drama & ended up pushing Hassan towards Hayat a bit more? I am not sure if that was supposed to evoke some comedy or it was just a stupid judgment on Sidra’s part because if there’s one person who understands Hayat it is Sidra, so I don’t think such clumsiness was expected from her. All the conversations in which Hassan was involved were long, boring & repetitive. Yes, we get it, he is new at this entire idea of love & he is feeling like a fish out of the water but after a certain point, in stead of deriving some comedy out of this scenario, I started feeling bad for Hassan because for their own selfish reasons, both Zaki & even Sidra were pushing him towards the wrong direction, like it feels they are turning Hassan into a puppet to kill their boredom which I never thought would happen with someone in this drama!
Thankfully, the second half of the episode got interesting where the characters who I am actually concerned about were shown. Life has presented a fantastic career opportunity to Nida & right now just because she has Zaki on her mind, she rejected the offer but I am not sure how long she’ll be able to resist it considering how Jimmy will be manipulating her & pushing her to sign the contract. Right now, Nida’s priorities are different that is why she didn’t discuss this offer with Zaki but I also have a feeling that if Zaki had told her not to do it, only to rile him up, she would’ve gone ahead with the contract. I am interested to see how this will unfold because Jimmy most certainly is not going to sit quietly & see this opportunity slip away from him!
Even though Hayat’s concerns for her father are understandable but her conversation with Fatima seemed a bit too sudden & uncalled for. I think Hayat has always been quite cautious & has dealt with her new family members with a lot of patience & respect, so not sure why she decided to speak to Fatima just so casually that too about the matters that are so personal? I think if Hayat had picked on something, she should’ve spoken to her father first because Fatima is not at all answerable to Hayat. I also believe she crossed the line with her step mother because she had no right to interrogate her like that in the first place. I really believe if Hayat could eavesdrop on Fatima & pick on the details about her love affair, then they could’ve also shown Hayat eavesdropping on Nida & getting to know what her intentions are because that would’ve guaranteed a quicker & a convincing wrapping of things, which I most certainly am looking forward to at this stage!
This episode didn’t work for me at all. I am sure it must’ve worked for all those who like Hassan’s character. Honestly speaking, the preview of the next episode didn’t seem promising & for the first time while watching the precap I felt burdened that I’d have to tune to this drama to find out what is going to happen because at this stage all the loyal viewers of Yeh Raha Dil want to see the ending of this drama & it’s sad that they’d have to sit through a few meaningless & filler episodes to finally know how it ends. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Yeh Raha Dil.
