The two stars have gone through a big transition in their lives as they welcomed their first child, their daughter Noor e Jahan and Asad lost his father just recently. The family is living, healing and welcoming the biggest blessing that Allah has bestowed upon them.
It was Asad’s birthday and they had a lowkey celebration as all the friends were over. They played pool, had good conversations and enjoyed their time with little Noor e Jahan as Asad cut the cake. Here are some pictures from Asad Siddiqui’s low key birthday celebrations:
Asad Siddiqui is a phenomenal Pakistani actor. He has started his acting career with Azar ki aye gi Barat while he was studying for his MBA. Asad is the nephew of exceptionally talented actor Adnan Siddiqui, he has appeared in notable television projects including Gumrah, Khuda Dekh Raha Hai, Shikwa, Dareecha, Azar Ki Ayegi Baraat, Joru Ka Ghulam, Sanam, Tawaan. He is best known for his role in Surkh Chandni which is about Acid Attack victims. He made his film debut with Wajahat Rauf’s Chhalawa with his real-life partner Zara Noor Abbas.
Asad has celebrated his Birthday with his wife Zara Noor Abbas. Let’s have a look at some of the glimpses from his birthday.
Asad Siddiqui is a talented and versatile Pakistani actor and model who has been part of the media industry for around fifteen years. His notable dramas include Barat Series, Surkh Chandni, Bismil, Habil Aur Qabil, Aye Musht-e-Khaak, Sinf-e-Aahan, Tera Yahan Koi Nahi, Tu Mera Junoon, Rishtay Biktay Hain, Balaa, and Paristan. Currently, fans are praising his performance in Geo TV’s drama serial Shikanja. He is married to Zara Noor Abbas, who is an equally talented actor, and together they are parents to an adorable daughter, Noor e Jahan who is 1.5 years old.
Recently, Asad Siddiqui appeared on Zara Noor Abbas’ show What Mom Sense? In the show, he called out the modern trend of parents sending children to school at an early age. He also called out schools spreading class consciousness among the children.
On Zara Noor’s question, “Why aren’t we admitting Noor e Jahan to school?” He replied, “Noor e Jahan is just 1.5 years old. Who gets a child admitted to school at 1.5 years? Only fools. Even four years isn’t a suitable age for kids to be sent to school; five is also not the right age. All these school systems are money-making machines. Schools make you class-conscious and focus on money. Who can teach better than parents? Yes, schools can be helpful, but only after a certain age — not before that. In Finland, you aren’t allowed to attend school before the age of seven, because it is a scientifically proven age for learning, children are so fragile, their bones don’t even develop at five. Even Islamically, it is said to keep your children closer to you and teach them yourself.” Here is the link to the video:
Asad Siddiqui is a part of a big showbiz family. His wife Zara Noor Abbas connects him to the Bushra Ansari and Asma Abbas clan while his own uncle Adnan Siddiqui is one of the biggest stars in the country. Zara herself is also an established star while Asad Siddiqui is also a self-made star.

They will be sweet to you and praise you on the face and they will badmouth you behind your back. He, therefore, never hangs out with stars anymore.

He also called out the industry for wrong casting. Asad Siddiqui said that here we cast people who are white or they are someone’s friends. There is no merit sometimes and then it shows on the screens when the project goes on air. He also wants to produce himself in the future to better the situation and he is not opposed to introducing auditioning in the industry to better the casting procedure.

Asad Pervaiz is a famous Pakistani YouTuber who made headlines in 2020 after getting married at a very young age. Asad got married at the age of 18 with his class fellow Nimra. Both became popular social media celebrities and alao started their YouTube channel. They garnered huge fan following and praise. In January 2024, Asad made an announcement regarding quitting family vlogging on YouTube which was a good source of income for him at that time. Asad has now established himself as an E-Commerce expert and a realtor.
Lately, he appeared in Aroosa Khan’s podcast for her Facebook account and YouTube channel. In the podcast, Asad Pervaiz gave an important message to the parents regarding their children’s marriages.
Addressing to the parents, Asad Pervaiz said, “Don’t create hurdles in your children’s marriages because if you won’t allow them to marry at the right age, they will be attracted towards Haram relationships or porn, which is happening in Pakistan because parents discourage early marriages and urge their kids to first earn and then think about marriage. This practice leads them towards haram relationships. I am of the view that a person who gets married at a young age, is capable of taking responsibility of his family. And in our society, if a girl talks about her marriage, it is considered a Taboo. If your children want to marry someone, allow them to do so, otherwise, they will be meeting with them secretly”. Here is the link to the video:
Family Vlogging has gotten huge in Pakistan. Many YouTubers earn their bread and butter by showing their family and daily routine and posting their everyday adventures online. YouTube stars like Ducky Bhai and Arrob Jatoi, Sistrology and many others make content for audience consumption. Nimra Asad and Asad Perviaz are a couple that went viral as they got married as teenagers. They later on started family Vlogging and we have seen everything about them up to their baby’s birth in their Vlogs.
Asad Pervaiz was also a big name in family Vlogging. He recently quit family Vlogs for the sake of Allah and his announcement took everyone by surprise. He talked to the SA Times about his decision. He said that Vloggers show their wives and this gets them more viewership. An average YouTuber is making over 1 million PKR every month according to Asad. He said that he has also done it and he knew it was wrong.
He said that all Vloggers know this is wrong but they just cannot convince themselves of it. He said that he knows he will be looking at other avenues as this was the primary source of income but he has faith in Allah SWT. Asad also said that many Vloggers go to different countries these days and this is all only for the views and he will never do it again.
He also shared that he did not pressure his wife into following his lead but she happily privatized her life as she also got hidayat like him.

Ary is producing some very quality drama serials for Pakistan, but if new dramas don’t bring anything different to the plate, then they get lost in the swarm of Pakistani dramas which are appearing a dozen a day.
This time Ary is promoting its new drama “Badnaam” that it is a unique tale which will tug the deep strings of your heart with all that happens during the course of its characters’ journey.
This serial features Sanam Chaudhry, Ali Kazmi and Zhalay Sarhadi as the leads. The longer teaser shows a tale of love, passion and conflicts. Let’s see how the drama manages to capture its viewers.
The morning shows of various channels cover a variety of subjects and one of the popular subject is the shaadi (wedding). As far my limited knowledge this trend was first started by Dr. Shaista Lodhi when she hosted the morning show of ARY Digital some six seven years ago.
But whoever started this trend it turned out to be so successful that nearly all the morning shows hosts (apart from few exceptions like Nadia Khan, Farah Saadia, Juggan Kazim) also have to follow it for the sake of high TRP.
Following the same trend in a new way (old wine in a new bottle) now two channels are collaborating to celebrate what claimed as the biggest wedding of the Pakistan. These channels are ARY Zindagi and ARY Digital. ARY Zindag’s morning show Salam Zindagi‘s team and host Faisal Qureshi will be larke wale (لڑکے والے) while ARY Digital morning show Good Morning Pakistan’s team and host Nida Yasir will be larki wale (لڑکی والے). This whole wedding will be a live telecast starting from 2nd May 2016 at 9 AM SHARP on both the channels ARY Zindagi and ARY Digital. It will be interesting to see that who are the bride and groom for this wedding.
The official facebook page of these morning shows describes it as
Shaadi ki Bahar! Shuru hone ja rahi hai Pakistan ki Sab se Bari Shaadi 2 channels per ek saath heart emoticon Starting 2nd May 9:00 am (LIVE)
With 14th August just around the corner, ARY decided to get creative and initiated a campaign, “Shukria Pakistan” , encouraging Pakistanis to thank their homeland for everything it has given them. The campaign encourages people to step up and do something to show their love for Pakistan.
https://youtu.be/UHVnMtbwWTM
Adnan Siddiqui, Faisal Qureshi and Junaid Jamshed are also part of the campaign.
ARY media house is adding another channel ARY Zindagi in their family. This new channel will be an entertainment channel consisting of foreign and local entertainment programs. The official facebook page of the channel has listed a variety of indian, turkish and pakistani programs. On the whole Indian programs are in majority consisting of dramas, laughter challenge and variety shows.
The channel seems to be similar to Geo Kahani and HUM Sitaray, launched by Geo group and HUM group respectively the other two big media groups. Both Geo Kahani and HUM Sitaray telecast entertainment programs of Turkey, India and Pakistan and ARY Zindagi is expected to run on the same lines. It is also unclear whether ARY will launch a new channel or convert its existing cooking/entertainment channel ARY Zauq into ARY Zindagi.
Ary Digital is one of the most established and well known channels of Pakistani industry and had two successful dramas to it’s credit this year. Ary recently launched an online portal for people to vote for their favorite characters of 2016. Ary’s recent approach was the best way for fans to choose their favorite stars/characters and actors on the other hand, had a chance to know what their fans feel about them. Thousands of people voted online and the wait is over because the results are already up.
ARY Digital Network represents one of the top three entertainment networks of Pakistan. Their entertainment channel started in the early 2000s and it grew into one of the most successful channels of Pakistan. The network is all set to make a new decision about their drama streaming and it has started a controversy among fans.
Currently, some of the biggest dramas of the season are airing on ARY Digital. Dar e Nijaat and Bas Tera Saath Ho have a viewership of millions while many other big budget shows are all set to air in the coming months. But ARY will not allow its viewers to watch their dramas on YouTube anymore.
ARY dramas will be streaming officially only on ARY Plus app. The app does not have a subscription fee currently and fans will be able to watch their favourite dramas only on the app from 17th September 2026.
This decision of stopping YouTube streaming of their dramas has brought ARY under fire and fans are not at all happy about it. One person wrote, “This is such a bad move.” Another added, “ARY had millions of views but it looks like they did not like the millions they were earning through it.” One went, “We will stop watching these dramas. No one is going to watch the shows on ARY Plus.” Here is the reaction:
It came as a surprise to everyone when ARY CEO announced that he had taken over BOL Network. He also announced that the channel will start broadcasting in three weeks. While giving the reason for this takeover Salman Iqbal said, “The driving force behind this decision was our mission to try and ease the difficulties faced by media persons.” ARY had also offered jobs to those journalists who had gone out of jobs after BOL Network failed to start its transmission.
Salman Iqbal also said, “I have created Pakistan’s largest TV channel – so I thought why not take that dream to BOL.”
Sherry Rehman also supported this move.
Here are some pictures from the ceremony in which the founder and CEO announced about the takeover and some future plans.
Ary Digital is the biggest Pakistani Channel with the biggest Youtube subscription. The channel’s subscription is soon going to hit 20 million on Youtube. Despite being the biggest platform Ary doesn’t conduct the traditional award shows however they usually conduct social media awards and give awards to the actors who deserve them.
The same has happened this year, they have conducted the people’s choice award. In a small ceremony, they have given away the awards.
The awards were given to:
Ramsha Khan for “The Best Actress” in “Ghisi Pitti Mohabbat”
Today, the news about Ary News anchor Ashfaque Satti grabbed the spotlight. According to the details, the anchor reportedly abused his second wife Nomaika on a domestic issue. The pictures and videos were shared by anchor’s second wife Nomaika. The anchor also shared his side of the story along with pictures. After the news went viral, many people started demanding the cancellation of the anchor. People were urging Ary Digital to suspend the anchor.
Lately, Ary News has taken the action and suspended the news anchor. The channel shared the official statement regarding suspension of the anchor Ashfaque Satti. Ary News official statement says, ” The ARY Management has taken serious notice on the allegations of domestic violence involving anchorperson Ashfaq Satti. He is hereby suspended with immediate effect till the law takes its course and decides the matter. ARY has zero tolerance policy on violence or threats of violence be it at the workplace or domestic”. Here is the link to the post shared by the official X account of Ary New Official:

Celebrities and social media users are appreciating Ary Digital for taking a quick action. They are praising Ary Digital’s CEO Salman Iqbal for taking notice of the matter and suspending the anchor. The singer Fakhir Mehmood also appreciated the Ary News network. Many social media users said that there should be zero tolerance for the violence. However, a few of the social media users are saying that Ashfaque Satti should be considered innocent until proven guilty in the court. Read all the comments:
Afghanistan is not the ideal place for any news reporter to cover because there are too many complications there. ARY news reporter Faizullah Khan was sentenced to four years imprisonment in April because according to authorities he entered Afghanistan without proper documentation. Sources revealed that the reporter had also been accused of espionage but the court dropped those charges and instead found him guilty of illegal entry to Afghanistan. The sources reveal that the embassy was following the case and would provide legal assistance to Khan to secure his freedom. “The ambassador has met cabinet members from Nangarhar … we are positive we can secure his release,” he added.
Akbar Achakzai who is an Afghan journalist, said Faizullah Khan had entered Nangarhar province to interview senior members of the Taliban, and was detained by police a few hours after his arrival.
The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and the Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ) have condemned the detention of Faizullah Khan and have asked governments of both the countries to ensure that he returns home safely.
