10 Beautiful Dresses of Sarah Khan In Deewar e Shab

1

Sarah Khan is one of the most beautiful and attractive actresses in the Pakistani drama industry. She has worked consistently hard to be where she is and it won’t be wrong to say that she has carved a niche for herself. Sarah Khan has a huge portfolio and because she has been in the drama industry for so long, she understands the demands of her characters. Sarah is one of those actresses who pay a lot of attention to the overall styling, hair and makeup of their characters, this is the reason, in every single drama, she not only sports a different look, she makes sure that her wardrobe is elaborate and very much according to the dynamics of her character.

Sarah Khan’s drama Deewar e Shab is on air right now. She is playing the role of Gaitiara, a very considerate and obedient daughter who wants to get educated and fails to give up on her dream even in the toughest of circumstances. Gaitiara’s character never came to the forefront but she always had a strong presence of her own. There is not even a single scene in the entire drama where the character of Gaitiara has not looked beautiful and perfect. The credit definitely goes to Sarah Khan for portraying it as such on screen. Gaiti Ara comes from a family of singers and performers, she belongs to such an environment which is always open to public, it is loud, vibrant and of the sort which does not allow the residents of that area the luxury of tranquility and peace. Gaitiara’s wardrobe has been designed in such a way which shows that she belongs to a musical family but is still very rooted and low-profile. She is well dressed but has always kept her styling toned down and not too elaborate. Sarah Khan has looked absolutely gorgeous throughout the drama because of her hairstyling, makeup and overall styling. She has worn the simplest of outfits but has dressed them up with the help of beautiful dupattas, which is a style statement in itself.

Let’s take a look at 10 best dresses of Sarah Khan from Deewar e Shab:

The White Dress:

This dress of Sarah Khan is a classic example of simplicity at its best. It is a simple white chiffon pishwas with golden laces at the neck, sleeves and waistline. However the article of clothing that amps up the entire outfit and makes it stunning is that beautiful tissue fabric dupatta with gotta detailing and pattern throughout. This is the reason in some of the scenes, Sarah Khan had literally wrapped the dupatta around herself to let it shine in all its glory. This outfit was effortless and gorgeous because it was simple but still was enough to draw the attention to it. Sarah Khan has throughout the drama worn heavy kajal and thick eyeliner on her eyes and this makeup look compliments the simplest of outfits that she has worn throughout Deewar e Shab.

The Mustard Colored Dress:

This was yet another beautiful dress that Sarah Khan wore. She has kept the styling more or less the same where she has worn solid colored dresses with some dainty laces and has let the dupattas do the talking. This outfit is yet another example. It is a beautiful plain mustard color flared pishwas with bell bottom trousers. The golden lace is used as a finishing around the neck, on her sleeves and around the waistline as well as chest. The red jamawar stripe has also been added on the sleeves and the main article of clothing taking this dress to another level is the gorgeous dupatta. This dupatta is pretty similar to the white one but it is in mustard color. It is very obvious that the designer chose all these gorgeous dupattas and then made the outfits complimenting them. This dupatta also has gotta detailing all around the 4 borders and the bold pattern catches the eye.

The Turquoise Blue Dress:

What makes the entire wardrobe choices of Sarah Khan interesting in Deewar e Shab is that she has played with all the colors and has probably worn every basic color there is. The fact is that there’s not even a single color that has not looked good on Sarah Khan because all these beautiful colors have complimented her gorgeous skin tone to perfection. The jet-black hair also stands out a lot more against these different colors and makes her look stunning. Sarah Khan has worn this beautiful shade of turquoise blue in some of the scenes. It is a simple A line shirt with loose trousers. The delicate silver laces around her neckline and sleeves add a dainty and girly touch to the dress and then comes the beautiful net dupatta. The dupatta has mukaish detailing on it splattered all around, this is why the designer has picked silver lace to go on her shirt. This definitely is Sarah Khan’s color.

The Classic Black Dress:

Sarah Khan’s wardrobe won’t be complete without a gorgeous black dress being a part of it. She wore this beautiful formal black dress in Gaitiara’s engagement scene. Due to it being a solid colored black dress, the detailing was hard to pick but in some of the moments when light reflected upon the sequins, the different textures and embellishment patterns stood out and showed how much detailing had gone into its designing. It was a beautiful chiffon black dress with self-printed fabric and then a lot of materials were used to add design over it. The sleeves of this dress look beautiful too. Sarah Khan looked absolutely stunning in this gorgeous dress.

The Pink Dress:

Sarah Khan wore a gorgeous shade of pink and it looked beautiful on her. Again, a solid color pink shirt with golden laces. It was a straight shirt that she paired with white churidar. The dupatta turned this simple dress into a semi-formal outfit. The pink sparkly dupatta itself is gorgeous with golden embellishments splattered all over it. The addition of gota tassels is another beautiful detail to it.

The Purple Dress:

This was another simple yet gorgeous outfit of Sarah Khan. All these different colors were not only refreshing to see but made her look beautiful as well. The purple dupatta is very much similar to the pink one. Sarah once again wore a solid colored purple suit with A-line shirt and loose trousers. The beautiful and simple design element was added with the help of lace around her neckline and sleeves and then she draped the dupatta in such a way which completed the look and draw attention to it. This is yet another color that looks perfect on her.

The Khaki Colored Dress:

This has to be the simplest of all the dresses that she has worn due to the shade of it, however, it shows how the most simple looking dresses can be carried effortlessly. This is the reason this happened to be one such outfit that Sarah Khan has worn repeatedly throughout the drama. It was worn during those scenes where she was not doing much and just at her utmost comfort. A Khaki colored pastel shaded shirt and trousers with net dupatta and golden gotta detailing around the neckline, sleeves and armhole. It is interesting how Sarah Khan has the ability to make the simplest of dresses look this good and elaborate.

The Tea Pink Formal Dress:

This was one of the heavy formal dresses that she wore in one of the scenes. Sarah Khan looked like an actress from the olden era with this sleek bun hairstyle and wrapping of flowers around her hair. This was a heavily embellished outfit that she wore. It was a layered dress with one plain satin shirt underneath and the main article of clothing was the upper shirt with all the heavy designing, patterns and motifs. She wore a flared palazzo with it and draped her dupatta tucked around her neck. The color of this dress suited Sarah Khan as well and she looked super pretty.

The Sky Blue Dress:

This is yet another solid colored dress that Sarah Khan wore in Deewar e Shab. What’s interesting about these designs is that anyone can get these dresses tailor made because the designs are simple made with such fabrics which are widely available across the country. Another interesting aspect is that the designer has used the laces to create different styles around the neckline and top portion of her shirts, it adds more variety to the design and stops the dresses from looking similar, despite the fact that the overall styling and theme is pretty much the same. She wore a flared pishwas in solid sky blue color and because the dupatta had silver detailing and lace around it, the designer used the silver laces on her shirt too – yet another example of simplest of outfit looking absolutely gorgeous.

The Bridal Dress:

Last but definitely not the least, the bridal wear of Gaiti Ara was beautiful too. It had bolder bigger patterns but it kind of suited the dynamics of Gaitiara’s life and surroundings. The hair and makeup definitely could have been better because the makeup artist decided to not go heavy handed on the eyes, whereas she had carried the dark eye look throughout the drama, this is the reason she looked a little bare in the minimal makeup look but the dress itself was beautiful. It was a gorgeous classic combination of maroon and off-white with metallic golden designs and embellishment all over the dress. She draped a dupatta on her head and carried the other one as a shawl on the shoulder. The off-white chiffon dupatta had a beautiful self-embroidery on it and it was finished with a beautiful border. The shawl had a beautiful spiral design. The velvet blouse had embellishments splattered all over and the lehenga complimented the off-white dupatta beautifully.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

6

Pakistani dramas and their stories are based on variety of characters which cover pretty much all the members that form a family unit. It includes showing the dynamics through characters belonging to different age brackets and generations. Usually, the writers prioritize working on protagonists and some supporting characters but when it comes to the characters of parents, they often treat them as an afterthought. Parents are building blocks of a family unit, therefore while watching such characters on screen, the viewers automatically expect the parents to be rational, substantial and strong. It is unfortunate that a lot of times, the writers show parents as helpless as can be, which makes their characters unrealistic and unconvincing.

Pakistani dramas indeed are based on reality and portray different versions of real-life incidents, however the writers also forget that through their dramas, they can also preach people of how they shouldn’t actually be, which includes parental roles as well. Over the years, Pakistani drama viewers have come across quite a lot of such parental characters that were quite annoying and did not really make much sense. A character can be negative or positive or even at times grey which makes it easier for the viewers to perceive them but then there come such characters who form a league of their own and they end up being the most annoying ones.

Let’s take a look at the annoying parents seen in Pakistani dramas recently:

Saba’s Father (Khaas)

Although Khaas ended last year, the amount of annoyance Saba’s father Faraz put the viewers through has still not slipped their minds, therefore he deserves to be in this list. When the drama started, Faraz was shown to be such a father who believed in his daughters and wanted to see them happy, being independent and doing everything on their own terms but as the story progressed, the picture turned out to be completely different than the promo itself. The writer obviously showed Amaar being manipulative but Faraz not only ended up getting manipulated but it got to the point where he stopped using his own brains and started doubting his daughter who he loved quite a lot. It was disturbing seeing Saba being put through so much family pressures and the root cause of it being Faraz not even gracing Saba with a chance to explain herself. The redemption of Faraz was also quite unconvincing because after prolonged resentment for his daughter, one fine day he woke up and believed Saba’s friend Anum and thought that was enough. Faraz was a unique case where he didn’t believe in using his own ears and brains, may be he didn’t want to put a lot of burden on his senses.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Taimoor’s Mother (Balaa)

Shama was shown to be quite close to her son as well as her daughters. In the beginning she didn’t even shy away from taking a stand for her children because she knew what was better for them. Her character once again took one bad form after another where she forced Nigar, the villain of the family to woo her only son Taimoor to talk him into getting married to her, that too when she knew the kind of nature Nigar had. As the drama progressed, Shama’s senses started shutting down one after another. The character not only died a tragic death but the way she lived was more painful, not because of the zulm o sitam directed at her, but because of the way she stopped taking charge of the situation and started fearing Nigar. It is unrealistic that a mother, who could see through her daughter in law’s manipulation didn’t even try once to solve her family issues. The way she turned a blind eye to her youngest daughter Batool was sickening, also the way she let her other daughter Saleha die without going with her to the doctors was also ridiculous and unconvincing. It is unfortunate that Shama ended up showing God-fearing people as dumb and stupid.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Rida’s Mother (Kahin Deep Jalay)

Khadija is another parent which is far from the viewer’s comprehension. The audience of this drama are finding it very hard to understand how she raised such loving kids who were so close to one another because as the story has progressed, it has become quite evident that she as a parent did not have any say or play a role in their lives whatsoever. Right in the initial stages of her son’s marriage, she understood that his wife Shameela was up to no good, but she chose to stay silent. Yes, it was her way of maintaining peace in her family but when Shameela started chewing onto the sibling relationships and caused strain between them, it was Khadija’s responsibility to speak to each one of them individually. The writer has tried to make Shameela look like a culprit but Khadija also takes the cake for facilitating Shameela and providing her a playground to do what she wants. Helplessness of Khadija is actually blood boiling and injurious to viewers’ mental health.

Mairah’s Mother (Mera Dil Mera Dushman)

This mother is another annoying character of the newly airing drama Mera Dil Mera Dushman. Imagine the director must be finding her character so annoying that even before she completes her sentence, the scene ends. It is purely because everyone knows that there’s nothing important that she is going to say which will contribute to the drama and its story. All she does is cry and pant. Right from the moment the drama started, she embraced bechargi and took her role as an ambassador of helplessness with full devotion. She was pretty unhappy with Zafar’s proposal and right after she found out that Zafar had a daughter Mairah’s age, she fainted as if she won’t be able to survive this apocalypse. The very next day, she was giving pep talk to her daughter on Walima stage that Zafar was her husband and she shouldn’t say anything against him? To behoshi ka drama kyun bhai? Oh, imagine the importance of this character that till now 11 episodes of this drama have gone air and this character is nameless. *fainted*

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Nihaad’s Mother (Main Na Janoo)

This mother is probably wearing a fly mask (cover worn around horse’s eyes) because she is so one-dimensional that she puts everything one to shame. She is a unique case of being blind despite having eyes whereas ironically in this drama, the character of Nain is supposed to be blind but he happens to be the most logical one of this paglon ki toli. Asma has seen her son Nihaad abducting Saira from her mehndi function, still she continues to say that it is Saira who is luring her son and not giving up on him? As much as this character is sickening and annoying, it must’ve been very easy for the actor to play this role because all she has to do is repeat the same dialogue over and over again which is ‘Nihad ne kuch nahi kiya, Saira ne isay phasaya hai’. Round of applause of this annoying mother who thinks she has given birth to a saint and everyone else is a sinner. Height of being delusionally blind and blindly delusional.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Kiran’s Mother (Main Na Janoo)

Tehmina, the way the actress has portrayed this role is pretty annoying itself but the way the writer has written it is a whole new story. A woman hell bent on ruining her daughter’s life? Why would any mother do that deliberately despite knowing the truth that Nihad is not into his daughter and he is very much in love with Saira? A scheming plotting character who is purely inspired by Starplus because no matter what storm takes over her life, her kajal never smudges, eye makeup stays smokey and the curls are always tight and intact. An overly exaggerated character who has nothing good to over to the drama world!

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Zamin’s Mother (Thora Sa Haq)

Munazzah Begum is another gone case who is manipulative and a back-stabber. She has backstabbed her husband, the owner of her house Rabia, her son Zamin and her two daughters in law Seher as well as Hareem. Munazzah is a perfect example of a sweet-cutter who will stab you with a dagger in your heart with a smile on her face and will make you believe that you walked towards the knife and hurt yourself because she didn’t do anything. Right from the beginning, Munazzah has tried everything to just save the roof over her head and it seems she will lie to Zamin once again upon being asked about why she didn’t get her own place and chose to stay with Rabia. Munazzah obviously has her sights on the wealth and luxuries that she has gotten used to, that is why she doesn’t care what her son goes through. Atomic explosions cockroaches aur Munazzah ka baal bhi baaka nahi kar sakte!

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Zamin’s Father (Thora Sa Haq)

Waqar uncle was pretty swift in wrapping Imam Zamin around Zamin’s forearm and setting a sehra on his head but when it came to owning the mess he created and the lies and deceit he fabricated, he conveniently forced the writer to cut his character short and allow him an easy exit out of this messy situation. Why was it so hard for Waqar to speak the truth and not putting his son through so much mental and emotional turmoil. This was yet another case of unnecessarily dragged and exaggerated helplessness. Waqar uncle seemed pretty fine during the days when he was alive, which made the viewers wonder how could he, considering the heavy secret he was keeping in his heart.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Afreen’s Father (Dar Khuda Se)

Another curious case of bechargi taken to a whole new level. All this character does is cry and doubt all his children. Yes, a few of them are rotten eggs but the one who stood by his side and financially supported the entire family Afreen, when things got messy in her life, he conveniently turned a blind eye and continued to do what he was good at; cry. Tamkeen was eager to get married and when she chose a fruit vendor for herself, the ultimate Abba Jaan rejected his proposal citing his status not meeting Abba Jaan’s status, as if he himself was a mayor of Karachi. It had to take the culprit’s testimony for Abba Jaan to believe that Afreen was never involved with anyone and was in fact a victim of workplace harassment but the fact remains that he chose not to believe his daughter and show faith in her when she needed it the most.

10 Annoying Parents Seen In Pakistani Dramas

Both The Aunties (Jo Tu Chahay)

It will be a waste of time discussing these characters separately because the writer has painted them with one brush and made them a carbon copy of each other. These two women are upto no good, they are greedy, manipulative and conniving. Also, it is amusing that very conveniently, they put the blame on others whenever something goes wrong in their lives, instead of introspection and self-reflecting. The way these two women wag their tongues and spew venom out of their mouths sends shockwaves through viewer’s brains and it is unfortunate that only due to hatred for one another, they continue to ruin the peace of their households and ruin the lives of their children!

021 – Movie Review

0

With the movie now released for a respectable period of time now I think it is finally time to write a review.
021 is an excellent movie infact it is the next step of evolution in the genre of action movies. Unfortunately we Pakistanis have a habit of appreciating B-grade Bollywood trash over local gems.

021 starts in Afghanistan where Ayub khosa a warlord raids a convoy of nato trucks and takes a chip. We discover later that this chip contains the names of people who are collaborating with a corrupt conglomerate called the ‘ Winston group’ to accelerate war in Afghanistan in order to get control over it’s lithium deposits. Ayub then sends this chip to his friends kashif siddiqui aka kash ( Shaan) for safekeeping. Shaan plays an ex CIA agent who was dismissed from the agency after his first wife was killed and he went on a rampage in revenge. Amina Sheikh plays his fashionable second wife who is trying his best to make him comfortable and to bond with his sons.
This chip Ofcourse is of great value so too avoid exposure of American agents’ corruption, CIA agents in Pakistan ( Gohar Mumtaz and Shamoon Abbasi) are ordered to recover the chip and plant this whole mess on whoever holds the chip i.e. Kash. And here the action begins with some really cool action and sequences. Shaan had really outdone himself with this movie. Amina has done a pretty good job too and so as Shamoon as a suave and ruthless villain.

One refreshing thing about this movie was there was no concept of Black and white. All characters have their flaws. Not all Americans are evil. Ayub khosa is helped by a senior CIA agent who has been in Afghanistan for many years and genuinely cares about the country. The elderly dies in his efforts before recording a video asking kash to help Ayub. There is also an Afghan female journalist who is risking her life for her country. This movie is set on the eve of afghan elections and 021 refers to the number of hours this whole movie takes place.

The movie is shot brilliantly. From the barren mountains of Afghanistan, to the streets of Kabul to the modern metropolis of Karachi. The posh areas of karachi along with it’s dark underbelly is shown exquisitely. Over all the movie is great with a solid plot. It has also a message of peace and Afghan-Pak friendship. To see what happens in the end do watch it.

Here I must point out certain things that have pained me greatly. Every nation in the world supports it’s own industry. Yet here we are making fun of our own movies and rendering rather vicious criticism. I’ve read many negative reviews of this movie! My Question is this movie worse then the extremely moronic, stupid and monotonous erm ‘masterpieces’ like kick, Jai ho, Chennai express? These movies are so ridiculous that atleast I’m unable to watch them completely because of boredom. As for complaints of the movie being in three languages well there were subtitles in both English and Urdu. What about all the Bollywood movies with completely unnecessary addition of English just to impress foreigners and tricking them into believing India is so modern and hip?

op 021

Finally something about my movie going experience. I have so far in my life watched three movies total!( yes even I know that it is sad!). I do recall watching an old Pakistani movie at Muree Drive in Cinema( Where Shan-e-Mughalia restaurant now stands) but I was really young to remember the movie and as I recall feel asleep within a short period of time( Because of my age not because of the movie!). I’ve watched the other three at the multiplex at Ocean mall Karachi and I can surely say about my fellow moviegoers that they were incredibly rude. Giggling throughout the movie. They did this in 021, in Waar and in Insidious 2. Talk about ruining other’s fun! If you don’t know how to behave in a public pace then please stay home

Any way keep supporting and commenting.

P.S: Are people actually looking forward to my articles? Because My class fellows at Karachi university think that my articles are a waste of time and men don’t review dramas! ( What the hell!?). Any way who cares? I for one love writing these reviews and the response of all my friends.

#Wrapup2016 – Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all

1

This year has been a good one for Pakistani entertainment since there were few improvements made in terms of stories. It brought along some enthralling dramas which sure, are capable of leaving a mark in the industry. Stereotypical dramas are still somewhere alive but a few ‘good feel’ dramas covered it all.

It is always important for the drama to deliver the right message. Writing is always an important aspect but the characters are as important as the story is and a character can only be worth watching if it brings along a spectacle performance. Actors are always expected to give an attainable performance that not just satisfies them but the audiences too and that’s what makes a drama more meaningful. There are times when the stories will sink but strong characters will not let it down. The very first thing that attracts viewers to the drama is the lead roles but a drama can never be completed without the supporting roles.

And we are blessed to have few of those writers who provide proper attention to all the characters. Supporting characters give us the feel of completion for every particular drama and they are certainly a necessity. We this year, saw numerous supporting characters but there were only a few which nailed every bit of it and managed to keep their characters something to look forward to. Here is the list of Supporting characters of 2016, that managed to wow one and all.

Torah Khan

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Torah Khan from Sange Mar Mar, played by Paras. Sange Mar Mar is just a few episodes down and it is ruling the screens since the very first episode. The drama did not just covered a different story but has brought along some characters we’d always remember. Torah Khan is one such, who despite being a supporting character, has a strong appearance in the drama. All the conspiracies made by him were clever and unexpected at the same time. His character is not evil but of a man with painful past, who only has one motive and that is to take revenge of everything he and his family had to face due to Gulistan Khan’s family. The story right now is focusing on his character, Paras is overall, doing complete justice to the role of Torah and there are all praises for him. His acting is something which is way more than just commendable and he has brought Torah’s character to life in the best way possible. His acting is outstanding and we just can’t get enough of him.

Wahab Sanera

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Wahab Sanera from Besharam, played by Malik Raza. This character did not always had long scenes but somehow managed to keep the audiences wanting more of him. A glimpse of him was everything it took to make the episode more engaging. He would turn out to be funny in the least expected situations which is what the audiences liked the most. He wasn’t educated but was rich and had a beautiful wife too. The balanced accent the character had the whole time is something applauding. Malik Raza is really a talented actor, he did pull of this role easily and made it look natural at the same time. His character always had a lot to offer and was undoubtedly one of the best characters seen this year.

Shabnam

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Shabnam from Sanam, played by Hina Bayat. The drama till now doesn’t has much to offer but Shabnam is the character that is the best thing about Sanam right now. She has been a reason for the slight entertainment given by the drama, her character is of a mother who is always looking for a man for her daughter. She is a kind of strong woman, who left her husband’s town for the sake of her daughter’s future. She knew she wanted a good future for her daughter and so, she decided to take a higher step and move on. The character did some unreasonable stuff at times but still kept the audiences entertained the whole while. The character has been written in detail and every scene was perfectly executed. Hina Bayat’s acting is what makes ‘Sanam’ complete, her acting is extremely natural and professional. She is usually seen in dramas throughout the year but never fails to impress the audiences. She can easily fit into any character and that’s what makes her a versatile actor.

Aneesa Begum

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Aneesa begum from Zara Yad Kar, played by Saba Faisal. ZYK was not the best drama but the dialogues were something which were spot on till the end and brought along a great supporting character. The character transformed to a unlucky mother, who was hurt but not broken. Despite all the harsh happenings, Aneesa was shown strong, the writer had written this character in depth because the dialogues came out as genuine, her part gave us the much needed satisfaction. Every single dialogue said by the character was appealing in every way and Saba Faisal’s dialogue delivery skills are admirable, there couldn’t be a better choice for Aneesa’s role.

Durkhanai

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Durkhanai from Sange Mar Mar, played by Beenish Raja. Sange Mar Mar is such a ‘good feel’ drama that every character of it is perfect in every way and Durkhanai’s character is one of those characters which are a treat to watch. She is the perfect version of a friend and a companion, she did made mistakes and put Shireen in trouble but that certainly had to be done to move the story forward. Durkhanai’s role since the beginning had a lot to offer, she is outspoken but a supportive friend. Her scenes were always so entertaining that they could never be missed, i personally really liked her role. She is the best addition to the cast of sange mar mar and i’m surely not the only one who miss seeing her naughtiness.

Sheedan

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Sheedan from Udaari, played by Bushra Ansari. Sheedan was a character which could be an inspiration to many. She was strong, independent, confident and most importantly was proud of her profession despite of knowing that it’s not the best. She would breakdown but will never lose. Bushra Ansari was a perfect Sheedan, she nailed every bit of it. She is a kind of actress who manages to do every role with perfection. Whether it’s the accent or the style, she easily transforms for every role and makes it look extremely natural in every way.

Zulekha (Mohib’s mother)

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Zulekha from Dillagi, played by Saba Hameed. Zulekha’s character always looked real and was relatable because she was a strong mother. She was not the best mother in-law but was not the worst either. She did went unreasonable at times but was a dominant woman and loved her son unconditionally. The developments in the character were brilliantly executed and Saba Hameed’s acting was applaudable. She brought the character to life with her amazing expressions and acting skills.

Gulistan Khan

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Gulistan Khan from Sange Mar Mar, played by Noman Aijaz. Gulistan’s character is another strong and fascinating one. A presence of him is everything it takes to give viewers the satisfaction. He is shown as a cruel man who is used to imposing his decisions on his children and is not willing to change his mind for anyone. The character has been shown in a strongly manner till now, and is shown changing in minor ways and that too only because of the motives which are quite visible. The ‘roup’ he has is sometimes very interesting too see. Noman Aijaz has done roles similar to this in the past and he was perfect at it the whole time. Gulistan is not the best father but he cares for his children in ways that it seems too forced.

Maalik

#Wrapup2016 - Supporting characters that managed to wow one and all
Maalik from Mana Ka Gharana, played by Shamil Khan. This character went through different phases, it started of as an isolated person and then a loving one. The changes were neatly shown and the character had something different to offer in it’s own way. The chemistry he had with Zari was beautiful, the pair together looked extremely good. Shamil Khan’s acting was a cherry on top and he made the character more appealing with his brilliant acting.

#Teamzara Vs #Teamzareen For “Cake”

As Pakistani film industry has regained its footing among the masses, so has its promotions, marketing, press releases and fan meetings to work in an increasingly internal competition.

#Teamzara Vs #Teamzareen For “Cake”

This competition could be the reason, makers and cast of “Cake” have taken the promotion to another level and marketing the movie with their tweets as characters of the film. Amina Sheikh and Sanam Saeed are getting on to eachother’s case as Zara and Zareen from the movie. They are fighting like such siblings who can’t live with eachother and can’t live without eachother.

#Raeescontroversy – Shah Rukh Khan puts all the speculations to rest

0

Raees has been involved in lots of controversies till date. The film is finally going to release on January 25, 2017 but the speculations are still very much alive. Earlier there were reports of Mahira Khan’s role being fully chopped but her character was very much present in the trailer. Shah Rukh Khan recently told Raj Thackeray (MNS leader), that Mahira won’t be joining him while for promotions of Raees. This all started when the director of the film was quoted saying that there are no governmental restriction on Pakistani actors coming to India and Mahira Khan would be brought to India for promotions if needed. Unfortunately, this did not went well with the MNS leader.

A photo posted by Shah Rukh Khan (@srkfeeds) on

According to the Indian Express, in a meeting that lasted for almost an hour, SRK promised Raj that he will not bring Mahira Khan to India for Raees promotions, nor will he work with any Pakistani actors in the future. Confirming this statement, Amey Khopkar of MNS told Indian Express, “There was news in the media for the past one week that SRK is going to get Mahira Khan to India. But after the meeting, SRK made it clear that Mahira Khan won’t be a part of any promotions for Raees.”
SRK assured Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) President Raj Thackeray that Mahira Khan, in his forthcoming release “Raees” will not come to India for promoting the film. MNS had earlier vowed to stop release of “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil” and SRK’s “Raees” which has cast Mahira Khan. While Ae Dil Hai Mushkil managed to get a safe release and Raees was still caught up into the controversy. However, Raees has now finally received Green Signal in India and it is cleared that Mahira Khan will not be going back to India to promote Raees or whatsoever.

#insummary – Miss Veet Pakistan 2016

0

Miss Veet is a platform that features potential and aspiring models who wish to enter the entertainment industry. Miss Veet 2016 wasn’t an ordinary show but actually showed us the journey of transformation from an ordinary girl to a star. Veet in previous years used to groom young girls into confident models, but this time around they promised that the contestants will come out as individuals who can do well in different paths and areas.

The show was hosted by Azfar Rehman. The judges were very famous people of the industry, Amina Sheikh, Ayesha Khan and photographer Tapu Javeri. The girls at this finest platform were mentored by Faiza Ansari.

It all started with the auditions which were held in Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad. All the girls auditioning were judged on the basis of their looks, confidence and most importantly posture, followed by some IQ related questions. After all the hoopla, final 12 contestants were selected and brought to Sri Lanka for the selection of Miss Veet Pakistan 2016.

A photo posted by Tapu Javeri (@tapujaveri) on

There was no sort of high voltage drama or any sorta unnecessary stuff. The contestants weren’t just trained to turn out as super models but they faced many challenges(not just about makeup) but many others things which beauty pageants usually lack to highlight and that’s the reason behind the success of this show.

The girls were to face a different challenge every week, there were contests which were extremely captivating and there were those too which weren’t that interesting but out of all these, the girls overcame their fear through different tasks. The contestants were not just challenged physically but mentally too and were taught about a healthy balanced life style. They were pulled out of their comfort zones with some thrilling and adventurous tasks which made them grow more in terms of personality.

*Drum rolls* And the award for #missveet Digital Viewers Choice goes to #LaraMudhwal

A video posted by Veet Pakistan (@veetpakistan) on

Every episode came up with a unique and different concept. There were challenges of doing makeup in a short span of time, selling brands, proving their theatrical performance, rafting and cliff jumping, organizing an event and even posing for the camera and sometimes with animals too. All these challenges made the girls believe in themselves and rise more.

In the semifinals, each contestant was given a sum of Rs. 50,000 to use in a socially responsible manner for causes in the areas of domestic violence, education, health, women empowerment & old age in alignment with a Social Organization selected by the participant. The final five contestants were judged on their ability to pull off this task on the criteria: creativity, effort, longevity, and reach. The top 3 contenders of Miss Veet were Lara Mudhwala, Zartab Bano and Zainab Raja after Saara Hirji and Fizza Rizvi failed to live up to the expectations and were eliminated by the judges.

The show finally came to an end with a star studded grand finale. The grand finale was a decent event which begin with a pink carpet followed by a performance by the bubbliest Mawra Hocane. Azfar Rehman hosted the whole show in a well manner but didn’t sounded comfortable in the finale, anyways there were many stars present at the event which made the night even more glamorous. Ali Zafar gave a mind blowing performance and the cast of Thora Jee Lee too rocked the stage, but what caught my attention most was the performance by all 12 contestants. I really liked the song they performed on since it was all about woman empowerment. Sara Hijri, one of the 12 contestants missed the ceremony due an avoidable reason.

#GrandFinale #MissVeetPakistan #WhoseNext #BigDay #2016

#Bestof2016 – Top 10 OST’s Of The Year

Dramas have been an integral part of Pakistani Entertainment since years.

There are not much praises for the drama since it doesn’t has much to offer but the OST is totally opposite. It is remarkable, because everything is just so perfect and praiseworthy. The OST is composed, penned and sung by extremely talented Shuja Haider.

1) Sang e Marmar OST
The drama and the OST both deserve this rank because they’re unmatchable. Sang e Marmar has brought a story with no cliche’s and lots of interesting things that we just can’t get over it. The OST of the drama has been written in such a depth that it touches the core, and Rahat’s voice has made it exceptional. One can just sit back holding the reverence for the commendable OST. It is composed by Sahir Ali Bagga, lyrics are written by Imran Raza and the singer is Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

#BEATME The Video Featuring The Strong Women Of The Nation

0

“Beat me” the video by United Nations for women in Pakistan, in which women are speaking up against gender based violence, and inviting men to beat them, but only at things they are best at, is trending all over Pakistan.

We can see Momina Mustehsan, Meesha Shafi, Sana Bucha, Sarwart Gillani and Samina Baig with many other prominent women in Pakistan challenging men to beat them with their voice, their words, on top of the mountains, on the grounds, in the fields.

The video sets to break patriarchal ideologies of Pakistani society and shatters the perception that women are feeble and weak.

 

 

#BanTheBoldness

I have been wondering this for quite some while now that every time the viewers come across something questionable in our Pakistani dramas, they raise their voice against it loud & clear, but have we seen anything changing in our dramas lately? I feel the drama-makers are imposing their choices on the viewers without being conscious of what they would like to see & what they wouldn’t approve of & that is why I see more & more drama-makers pushing the trend of boldness in every other drama. After constant reminders & discussions; especially these days when everyone has a chance to put forth an opinion through social media & every channel gets a feedback by a common man directly, I see the drama-makers ignoring what the viewers usually say & just focus on what they feel like doing. I really feel that gone are the days when the channels used to be conscious of people’s choices & used to make such dramas that would appease the viewers. I think the connection between the drama-makers & the viewers is lost because these days, I feel those who’re in the drama-making ‘business’ are only concerned about themselves & don’t really pay heed to what the viewers expect from them.

I think our demands have always been very simple where we have always wanted ‘decent’, ‘family oriented’ & ‘quality-ridden’ dramas, but I really think the channels have shut all the doors that give them an access to the viewers demands & honest opinions because they really don’t seem to care. I sadly feel that the channels & drama-makers are now bent on changing the perspective of people & for all the wrong reasons, that is why the dramas that we get to see these days have nothing to do with ‘decency’ & ‘quality’.

We always hear the channel owners & the drama-makers saying that they make these dramas for us, so why is it so hard for them to deliver us something that we’d like to see? Ohkay, let me pose some questions here; which one you wants to see a closeness between a husband & wife on the screen? Which one of you’d want to see a peck on the forehead in our dramas? Which one of you wants to see sensationalized rape scenes on TV? Which one of you wants to see awkward & suggestive chemistry between a couple on-screen? Which one of you wants to see a husband & wife sticking to each other as if they are the brand ambassadors of Fevicol? Ohkay, in simple words, which one of you wants to see boldness in our dramas? I know, I have recently written an article on the same subject but I feel, when the writers, producers & actors can do the same thing over & over again after ignoring what we all say, why can’t we discuss this issue time & again in a hope that someday, they will pay heed to what we have to say, in a hope that may be the things that we say will strike a chord one day, in a hope that our drama-industry will start producing quality dramas without having a need to depend on cheesy boldness in our dramas & in a hope that they would stop relying on unwanted skin-ship that serves no purpose whatsoever!!!

There was a time when every single Pakistani drama used to attract the viewers, it was a time when people had lesser time but more dramas to follow but now sadly the trends have changed where we hardly get lucky & get to watch a good drama after months. Why is it that they don’t make dramas like Zindagi Gulzar Hai, Shanakht, Digest Writer, Diyar-e-Dil every single time? Why do we see the dramas like Aahista Aahista, Dusri Biwi, Izteraab, Tumhare Siwa, Chup Raho, Khuda Dekh Raha Hai & Shert flocking on our screens with some very weird underlying themes & messages? I remember back in those days tuning to every Pakistani drama used to be a guarantee of a quality entertainment within itself but sadly, that trend has been long overruled & it’s like we have to fetch a torch & search for a good, decent & simple drama as if we’re out on a treasure hunt.

Every time these actors get awarded for their brilliant performances in award functions, their speeches are filled with gratitude towards their fans that support them, so when they can see the support, why can’t they see what the expectations of their fans as well? Our drama industry boomed because of the continuous support of people of Pakistan, so why is it that our dramas now come across as anything but Pakistani? I really think this is an alarming situation where the actors have stopped doing self-policing & they agree to do whatever they’re asked to do by the directors & the producers in a hope that these antics will bring them more ratings. I really hate to say this but looks like our drama-makers are resorting to boldness just in a hope of fishing for some TRP’s, which makes it all is very unfortunate & also unnecessary because our dramas used to gain popularity even back in those days when they used to be very decent – anyone remembers Dhoop Kinare? I am sure all of you guys do. It depicted such a pure form of love without any needless contact between Dr. Ahmed & Zoya. I really don’t understand how the actors these days bring themselves to perform such scenes that are quite objectionable. I hate to point this out but the way they have introduced the peck-ism in our dramas makes me cringe. First Ayesha Khan & Danish Taimoor did the honors in the drama Shert of APlus & recently Saba Qamar & Mikaal Zulfikaar followed their lead in Sangat of Hum TV as well. I really do understand that they try to be as ‘realistic’ in their dramas as possible but some realities are better when left untouched because no one wants them to go an extra mile in this regard. Media is an outlet that gives the rest of the world an access to any country & its society & sadly, the way women are being objectified in Pakistani dramas, as if they came to this world for this purpose only sheds a light on the mindset of a society & lets the outsiders misunderstand that these are the values & ethics, we; Pakistanis endorse. Media has a very important role to play & our dramas are more like a picture of Pakistan but sadly, the drama-makers are ruining everything.

Excuse me for saying this but I have a feeling that our drama makers are working day & night to put a dent on Pakistan’s image & Pakistani values. They are working really hard to destroy the institution of marriage by brain feeding impressionable youth that marriage is the root cause of all the problems. How many times we have come across such dramas that highlight the problems (along with the highlighted physical contact) that a newly married couple faces but we never once got to see such a drama that gave solutions to these problems too. I really hate to say this but looks like those who have no intelligence have become the writers & the directors & the producers, that is why, all of a sudden the quality of our dramas has deteriorated & the things that remain dominant are the glamorized & negatively sensationalized marital problems, objectification of women & the forced chemistry between the lead pair which is anything but decent.

To be honest, I so am waiting for the time when our dramas will regain their charm by resorting to the beauty of simplicity. Take my word on it, no one likes to see the unnecessary coziness between the actors on-screen because we’re not used to that & also because we know that our dramas can gain popularity without having these bits & bobs at all. We’re used to the chemistry that doesn’t need to be conveyed through a physical contact & we’re used to seeing the love being conveyed through expressions & words, not the actual actions. I really think the producers should stop worrying about the ratings, the directors should stop encouraging this trend, the actors themselves should say no to such scenes & they all should work together to give us clean & quality entertainment because Pakistani dramas look perfect when they open a window for the whole family to be sat, watched & enjoyed together.

Please share your thoughts on this subject; we’d love to hear your take on it too. :)

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

#2017 – Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

This year is turning out to be a happening year for the entertainment industry. With a wide range of good dramas airing on-screen, the audience has a huge list to choose from. And what makes a show successful is a powerful script, direction and most importantly a set of important characters. Every writer or director etches out a character, but it’s the job of the actor to understand the nature of the role and perform well on-screen. 2017 is three months down, and many amazing artists are giving good performances and deserve the recognition for the same.

Here’s a list of actors who are impressing one and all:

Asif Raza Mir – (Mehmood in Muqabil)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

The actor who once ruled the showbiz fraternity is back with yet another memorable performance. He has always been a powerhouse performer and has proved it every time he appears on-screen. His unique performance in Muqabil went on to show that he is a top notch performer. The character of Mehmood, a man who expects to be forgiven despite committing a sin, is not an easy job, but the way Asif Raza is putting life into the character is beyond perfection.

Kubra Khan – (Pareesa in Muqabil)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Kubra has not only the looks but also the right amount of acting prowess to carry intense as well as light-hearted scenes. Viewers love her as Pareesa, a girl who is weak but strong at the same time. The character is a tough one, but she’s conquering it all with her phenomenal performance. She has acted so well that the viewers feel an instant connection with the character. Kubra has once again proved her mettle as an actress by pulling off a role so effortlessly, and not to mention the fact that she and Mohsin Abbas look a million bucks on-screen together.

Mohsin Abbas – (Armaan in Muqabil)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

For an actor who is just a beginner in the drama industry, Mohsin has gotten himself acknowledged through his performance by playing the character of Armaan in Muqabil. Unlike, several other actors, he did not choose to debut with a conventional show and rather choose Muqabil, and needless to say, he is nailing the role of Arman. The way he portrays the transitions of the character is what makes it even more realistic. He manages to impress the audiences every week by translating every situation and expressions so amazingly and faultlessly.

Hania Amir – (Naila in Titli)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Hania’s remarkable performance in her first play has left the fans to spell bound. She outshines in Titli mainly because of her confident and convincing acting. The character itself has the potential to steal the show, and the way Hania translates the mean girl’s character on-screen is the reason why most of the viewers tune into Titli every week.

Yumna Zaidi (Hayat in Yeh Raha Dil)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Hayat made Yumna Zaidi step out of her comfort zone and perform a character which is exploiting her acting skills to the fullest. The character of Hayat is extremely relatable because of her natural acting which has been improving with every passing episode. Hayat is an opposite of a damsel in distress, she’s a happy go girl, and Yumna manages to handle the character steadily.

Azfar Rehman – (Pervaiz in Nazr-e-bad)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Azfar has packaged a king-size talent into himself. Playing a negative role is not everyone’s cup of tea, but he is doing complete justice to the character of Pervaiz in Nazr-e-bad. The viewers are thoroughly impressed with the way Azfar performs. A thrilling concept and an outstanding performance by Azfar completes Nazr-e-bad. He convinced the audience of how evil the character is through his cunning performance that made people hate his character, and that’s how he’s fulfilling the purpose of the role in a very convincing manner.

Imran Abbas – (Waqar in Mohabbat Tumse Nafrat Hai)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Currently seen in Mohabbat Tumse Nafrat Hai, Imran Abbas managed to impress us in the very first episode. After winning our hearts as Hammad, he’s now playing the character of Waqar. The character comes with many transitions in life, and the way he’s portraying Waqar’s character is just commendable. With his acting in the first episode of MTNH, Imran Abbas proved that he could pull off a role of any age with grace. From his language to dialogue delivery and the overall persona, he completely owns his character, and we just can’t wait to watch more of him as Waqar.

Noman Ijaz – (Khan)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Noman Ijaz is another actor who portrays characters so vividly that you can’t help but admire his acting skills. He makes every drama watchable with his breakthrough performance. His performance in Khan is amazing. However, the pace of the show is slow, but Norman Ijaz is carrying the drama impressively. He knows well how to portray a man with power who has a softer side for his woman.

Agha Ali – (Wamiq in Andaz-e-Sitam)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

It’s a job of an actor to convince the audience with the performance, and Agha Ali is just doing that to the fullest. Playing the villainous character of Wamiq, Agha Ali is truly at his best in the drama. The way he handles his character is praiseworthy, and that right there speaks volumes about his potential. His body language, dialogue delivery and expressions are all so consistent and on point. It’s always a treat to watch him as Wamiq.

Sania Saeed – (Chandi in Sammi)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

When we talk about leaving an impact, we truly mean it and who better than Sania Saeed justifies the same. A ruthless character or a sweet mother, Sania Saeed has done it all and succeeded as well. While actors are reluctant to experiment with roles, Sania Saeed signs up for the character and fulfils it to her best. Her acting in Sammi is making us praise the character because she’s just so perfect as Chandi. The way she brings her expression and dialogues to the screen, it feels like as if the character was just made for her.

Ahad Raza Mir – (Salar in Sammi)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Playing the character of Salar is not easy for a newcomer, but Ahad Raza Mir has impressed us all with his natural performance. His personality and sleek portrayal of the character is a treat for many. Salar is a guy who falls for Sammi but doesn’t impose his feeling on her and supports her instead, Ahad manages to give a solid performance and brings the character to life in the most beautiful way possible.

Ali Abbas – (Basil in Khaali Haath)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

One of the most underrated actors of the drama industry, Ali Abbas knows how to blend into the characteristics of the role. Be it in Khaali Haath or titli; he manages to portray every side of the character flawlessly. He is a kind of actor who focuses more on his craft, and that’s what makes him a brilliant actor. And the way he plays the character of Basil is just effortless.

Adnan Siddiqui – (Rashid in Sammi)

#2017 - Actors Who Are Impressing One & All

Adnan Siddiqui’s character in Sammi is one of those characters which leave an impact on the audiences. Adnan is going stronger than ever, and we’re sure he can give any actor from the younger lot, a run for their money because his acting is unique and incredibly relatable. Viewers love his character and his get up as well. He’s a versatile actor and portrays two sides of a character impeccably.

Note: The list is in no particular order and only includes actors currently seen on-screen.

“You cannot Judge a lady with her Clothes”, Says Mathira

32

The lady, who knows how to cash every possible move she can actually make in the showbiz industry, is enjoying the peak of limelight these days. Yes, we mean Mathira here. From her late night live hosting on a B-class channel to her controversial dance in the movie ‘Main Hoon Shahid Afridi’, Mathira’s career seems to be a journey with no ends. While her reputation still holds a confused state among viewers, Mathira has always proven that she is daring enough to pass big statements whenever she is questioned over a matter. It seemed no big deal for this controversy queen to call Shahid Afridi a mentally retarded man previously, and adding more stars in her debatable statement list, she has recently said that it is wrong to judge a woman from her clothes.

Defending today’s fashion in a talk show on SAMAA TV on October 18th, 2013, Mathira countered all statements of Mufti Abdul-Qavi who spoke on the fact that fashion industry in Pakistan is spreading vulgarity and indecency in the society. Mathira was blunt enough to say that it is truly inappropriate to judge a woman’s character on the basis of her clothing. She said that a woman wearing a top or jeans, or even a mini skirt can be a sober one.  It was an awkward moment when she said:

“Dusray log karein tou theek hai, apnay log karein tou La-haul Wala!”

tn_sa13

She further added (actually confirmed) that she is a Muslim and being a Muslim her life is all for her Allah and His Prophet (p.b.u.h), but it holds no sense to mix these facts with the fashion of today as the fashion designers are doing really well and are not crossing the social, ethical or religious boundaries.

This is not the first time we have seen such a debate on a forum, in fact, few months ago it was Veena Malik who was invited in this show and something very similar was seen on screen, which for sure, was an embarrassment.

“Working in India isn’t a big deal but going to India aur apni aukaat se bahar hojana, that’s not right,” Says Reema

There’s a lot of stigma attached to celebrities who are or were once part of Pakistan’s entertainment industry and it cannot be easily brushed off. The actress who appeared in numerous films, performed at Lux Style Awards this year and stole our hearts. In an interview with Instep, Reema spoke about her performance, response, the career in Pakistan and India.

Our favourite #ReemaKhan in a #NomiAnsari number in #goodmorningpakistan on #arydigital

A post shared by Nomi Ansari (@nomiansari) on

“People kept asking me why I had disappeared for five years, after getting married,” she began. “I tell them that for five years I was living in a family that had no connection to the showbiz world. It’s not easy to win the trust of people who have no connection with showbiz. Firstly, you have to make your place, then you have to understand them and make them understand you. So it took me five years to gain the trust of my in-laws. They also gave me the confidence that I can do whatever I want; there are no restrictions because now they know me well.”

“When I came to Karachi this time, Sheroo (Hassan Sheheryar Yasin) and Unilever contacted me and I couldn’t say no to HSY,” she continued. “We are old friends and he’s an extraordinary person. He’s a designer, anchor, a good friend. I just couldn’t say no to him.”

“People have really praised me in all the articles I’ve read so far,” she said, visibly relieved. “I sent my husband the video and links to the articles. He replied, saying ‘I know that my Ree is different and I’m so proud of you.’ His approval was the biggest award for me. And I’m also very grateful to all the journalists who wrote so beautifully and appreciated my efforts because of which I got so much encouragement from my family.”

What would have happened had the reviews had been negative?
“Then things would have been very difficult for me. Maybe it would have been the last performance of my life.”

So what had Reema been up to for the last five years?
“If you look at the history of showbiz, you’ll find very few stars who get married outside the industry and are given so much respect,” she explained. “People outside showbiz very silently get married to actresses and you’ll see that years will go by and you will never see those actresses again. Because either they go as second wives, or in secret marriages. My experience was completely different. It was an arranged marriage. Secondly, I married a man who wasn’t married before and had no children. I married at the peak of my career. To take such a decision was not easy but it was the best decision.”

“In America I was offered a series from America Abroad Media, called Reema Ka Amreeka,” she continued. “It was the first year of my marriage and I convinced my husband that it’s a huge opportunity and I’ll get to see and learn a lot. It required a lot of travel. He allowed me.”

“I got a chance to attend Republican and Democratic conventions; I met President Obama. I got the chance to interview senators and congressman like Dan Burton. I interviewed Sherry Rehman and Hussain Haqqani and got a chance to hear their point of view on our foreign policies. It was a very mixed sort of a program, which went on air in several countries.”

Reema’s Amreeka went down well and in 2014 the AMA gave her an award. She made a speech in front of a huge audience, including dignitaries from the Pentagon, she shared. This was an award that even Aamir Khan had received.

“That was a good start for me,” Reema reminisced. “I came to Pakistan then and did two very small modeling assignments; they were lawn ads. And then very silently, I went back without making any public appearances. During this time, I got TV and film offers but I kept apologizing and turning them down. In 2014, I got pregnant. I was excited to be a mother. I was enjoying life as a wife and a daughter in law but when I became a mother, that was an out of this world feeling that I cannot describe. I had a healthy son and my life started revolving around him.”

“When my son turned two, I celebrated his first birthday in Pakistan,” she narrated. “I met Shaan, Gulam Mohiuddin, Zeba, Babra jee, Anjuman jee. They all said the same thing; they told me to get back to work. I told them that my son was too young.”

How difficult was it for Reema to give up a life of financial independence and stardom?
“I’m extremely passionate about everything I do but I don’t use my patience easily,” she acknowledged. “When I got married, I had a 3 crore contract with Geo News; they had signed exclusively with me. I was going to get 15 to 18 lakhs every month. For two years, this was going to be my fixed income. I had a very strong association with Unilever; I had done the most number of Lux commercials. During my time, since 1992 till 2013, I was the ambassador for Lux. It was an exclusive contract for their regional campaign. In 1997, there was an ad in which Juhi Chawla and Raveena Tandon were there from India and Meera jee and I were from Pakistan.”

Loved wearing @mariahassanali At HumAwards! ✨

What was it like meeting Meera after so long? Meera made a very bold, gold and glamorous appearance at the Lux Style Awards and she was seen chatting with Reema.
“I’ve met her on and off. She always finds me somehow. Somebody asked me to describe her and I said she is an innocent girl. Unko maafi hai. There are some people who know how to be in showbiz, how to stay relevant and how to stay in the news and Meera jee knows how to do that. I never get angry at anything she says. There were instances when she would say things about me but I would never respond because I like everything about her.”

Reema was part of Lollywood at its peak and then there was a gap where we saw nothing. Now the industry is reviving again. How did she feel about the new films?

“Some people go abroad and get degrees in films,”
she replied, “but experience teaches you something which degrees do not. From the age of 15 till now, I’ve learnt so much because I’ve worked with the top directors and I’ve learnt that the most important thing is screenplay. Nowadays, you see a lack of screenplay in films. The big screen needs depth and a tempo. Nowadays the scenes in our films just go on and on and on. That’s the tempo of television, not film. But something is better than nothing. There was a time when nothing was happening and now we have something so we should appreciate it. It’s a very healthy thing. You should give positive criticism so that people can work on their mistakes.”

Thank you @rubyshakel for this Beautiful Dress for #LuxStyleAwards!

“When people talk about the old days, purana sau din naya nau din,” she continued. “That’s why those films used to stay in theatres for two years and nowadays films only last for two weeks. It is a great thing that films are being made but I would like to say that when TV people make films, they should seek help from the film people and try to benefit from their expertise. They might not speak English like them but they have experience and knowledge. They know what the demand of the big screen is. 99 per cent of old school directors can’t speak fluent English but they have the sense of theatre, of the 35 mm, which is why they were so successful. Directors today speak fluent English but don’t have that experience.”

Have you seen any films yet?
“I watched Asim’s film (Ho Mann Jahan) and I watched Bin Roye. They were both good but were very slow and lacked screenplay. That said, I’m glad that today a lot of people have the opportunity to make films and they’re keeping cinema alive.”

What else does the film industry need to do to improve, I asked, bringing up the growth of Bollywood.
“The Indian film industry has expanded a lot; they’re ruling the world. Raj Kapoor set the pace for them when he went to Russia and Europe and distributed their films for free and set the foundations for his film. They still give their songs and films for free so that people get a sense of their culture and lifestyle. It becomes an addiction.”

“Today our population is mostly made up of the youth, this is a great thing for us,” she continued. “But I’m so sorry, does our youth know who Babra is? Who Waheed Murad is? They’ll know the name but they won’t even recognize their faces. I honestly have experienced this. Why? Why don’t our channels play old films? There is no archive or studio for our old films. No place where we’ve preserved the work of our seniors. Even today, Raj Kapoor, Amitabh, Shammi Kapoor films are being watched on Indian channels. We have nothing like that here.”

Reema was offered several opportunities to work in India but she was one of the few people who refused.
“Working in India isn’t a big deal but going to India aur apni aukaat se bahar hojana, that’s not right,” she said passionately. “When you come back to your own country and demand a ridiculous sum of money, that’s not right. The reason I never worked there is that the day the Hindu fundamentalist stands up, woh doodh se makhi ki tarha utha ke phenk dega. And that’s what happened.”

“I am saddened by what happened with Fawad and Mahira,” she continued. “But you should prepare yourself when going to India that you will be asked to leave any day. There are good and bad people everywhere. There are some welcoming people and there are such conservative people who will never endorse any Pakistani cricketer/ singer/ actor. You see, Nestle signed Sania Mirza in Pakistan. Name one Pakistani who India has signed for their endorsements.”

Why do we allow Bollywood stars for our ads then?
“This pinches me a lot as well! We’re so patriotic but then why don’t we ever show patriotism? There should be a cohesion between our words and deeds. That’s why our country doesn’t succeed the way it should. Because we have too much corruption in ever sector. The day we fix ourselves, no power in the world can beat us.”

Was she planning to enter politics?
“No way. I have gotten lots of political offers from all parties. I’ve met all the politicians but I personally have no interest.”

Which party did she feel would save Pakistan?
“No party will save Pakistanis; only the awaam can save themselves. Till we don’t respect ourselves and our country, nothing will happen. People ask me, who has the biggest hand in your success, and I said ‘Reema’. If I lose from myself, nobody in this world can make me succeed.”

“I’m constantly working on myself instead of comparing my life to others,” she said. “Our culture is lost somewhere. I live in DC and I feel the community there, those Pakistanis are more patriotic and keeping our culture alive more than those living in Pakistan. We always have to speak English. Are you only considered educated if you speak English? I had to speak in English at the LSAs even though I wanted to speak in Urdu. Don’t forget your own clothes and language. Our bloggers are to be blamed as well. They’ll make fun of women who’ll wear shalwar kameez by saying ‘Oh, it looks like she’s come to a shaadi!”

“Last year I attended an awards show and my friends convinced me to wear a yellow Asim Jofa gown on the red carpet . I felt so uncomfortable. People were criticizing my clothes. I knew it because I could feel it myself. So I went backstage and changed into Sheroo’s sherwani and wore a dupatta with it. People should do what feels natural to them. In our time, everything was genuine. We had no Botox, no photoshop, no hair extensions. Today everything looks very glamourous but isn’t genuine. What they say isn’t genuine. I’m not saying that everyone is like that but the majority is.”

What is your plan to return as an actor, director, producer?
“I intend to do that but I need some time; maybe six months to a year. My son is very young right now. But when he grows up and I get the permission from my husband, then I will see. My husband is very supportive. Definitely, I would love to.”

What about Angels Within, the film she was apparently working on?
“Angels Within is a documentary film,” Reema explained. “It’s not a commercial feature film. It’s about physicians and doctors who are serving without considering races and cultures. My aim is to now interview international celebrities along with our own,” she concluded, with an eye on the future.

“I want to be such an anchor that I’m considered amongst the ranks of Moin Akhtar or Anwar Maqsood sahab. Internationally, I want to be amongst the ranks of Oprah Winfrey. I really admire her and look up to her a lot. I want to be on that level. I’m in talks with a TV channel right now and if that works out then I’ll start from Pakistan and then my effort is to interview the Canadian Prime Mister or the likes of Michelle Obama. And they won’t just be interviews, there will be a lesson in them as well.”

Wouldn’t she be interested in interviewing Donald Trump?
“I think that’s one man who’s out of my league,” she laughed, before signing off.

“We must come together and fight for the rights of abused children,” Shares Ahsan Khan

Ahsan Khan is a name that is synonymous with versatile acting and unique projects. He fits into every role assigned, and his performance in Udaari won him 3 accolades this year. The actor who continues towards making a difference in the world took up a challenging role in Udaari and nailed it.

He recently won Hum Award for his performance in the high rated drama. However, Yasir Hussain’s child molestation joke at the ceremony caused an uproar in the media.

Speaking to The Express Tribune, the Udaari actor said, “I urge people to channel their emotions towards addressing the problem of child abuse in Pakistan. The real tragedy is not a few flippant jokes; it is the sad fact that every day, more than 11 children in Pakistan report sexual abuse. The number of reports made is unacceptably high but, sadly, the actual number of children abused each day is much higher. “We must come together and fight for the rights of abused children not just in Pakistan but also all over the world.”

As the crowd stood up to give us a standing ovation, I was very happy, supremely grateful and incredibly emotional; yet I knew the accolades were not for me. People were celebrating an era in which Pakistan has built up the courage needed to bring unpleasant, troublesome and inconvenient issues to the forefront. Thanks to Udaari, a topic heretofore hidden and taboo, was discussed in homes all across Pakistan and all over the world. The team of Udaari took a risk and acted with tremendous courage when they undertook the project. As I accept the accolades and awards, I salute each and every person associated with Udaari. These are brave, courageous and daring people. I love them. I respect them. And I believe in them. These awards – and I am immensely grateful for them – are prizes not for Ahsan Khan but a veritable recognition of the tremendous courage that made Udaari possible. #uddari#saynotochildabuse#humtv#humawsrds#bestactor#bestactorinanegativerole#paaimtiaz#zebo#respect

“It takes a lot of courage to address problems that have, heretofore, been conveniently swept under the rug. I salute Hum TV for having had the courage to bring the subject of child abuse to mainstream television and each and every member of the cast and crew of Udaari for being part of a truly monumental project that was Pakistani media’s first significant step towards addressing the evil of child abuse,” he added.

“Performing such intense scenes was the most difficult part, I had always known and felt about child abuse facts, but only after reading the script and getting into the character I realized how disturbing the whole process was. There were times when I had sleepless nights just thinking about the abused children,” he stated. “In the beginning I didn’t realise the agony and pain until I actually met the victims and abused children whom gave me the shivers, thinking it would be nightmare if my own kids ever go through this turmoil”.

“I could feel the agony and vengeance then,” he said. “People would stop me in markets and ask ‘Aap ney kyun itna gandaaa role kya, ayenda mat karna’ and the worst would be

‘Nafrat hogai hai aap say, dil karta hai aap ko maaaren’. I would ask myself whether I had made a mistake in my career by choosing this character but as they say intentions matter and my intention was that even if I could change one life, the purpose would be served and I will be able to live in contentment and satisfaction.”

“Some of my co-actors called me child abuser, not realising how it could affect my personality. But, I wanted to send the message across, and today when I have won three awards in a row, I feel proud as this was not about me. It was about the taboo which we have to break and spread child abuse awareness,” he said.

“We Hope To Educate Against Illegal Immigration”, Armeena Khan

Armeena Khan has come leaps and bounds in terms of acting. Even though her characters till now have mostly been of the same genre, Armeena’s performance is consistently improving.

She is also very vocal about social issues and has been awarded for her concern and activism. Recently, we are seeing her in Daldal as the loving and simple Hira whose life is ruined by the ambitions of her greedy mother in law and husband. He goes abroad illegally and hence it becomes impossible for Hira to join him or for him to come back. The story elaborates the trials faced by the distanced couple.

“We Hope To Educate Against Illegal Immigration”, Armeena Khan

Armeena spoke to BBC Asian Network and in a very cultured tone explained the whole idea behind the play. She said she had always wanted to be part of plays like Udaari and Sammi, so when she was offered Daldal, she did not think twice.

“We Hope To Educate Against Illegal Immigration”, Armeena Khan

She said that they want to raise awareness about the hazards of illegal immigration and hope that her play will do its part in educating the people that they are going to be stuck in limbo if they use underhanded means to go abroad. She expressed her wish that government should provide opportunities for people to flourish in their own homeland so they are not tempted to leave this country without valid travel authorisation.

Here is what Armeena has to say about this very sensitive, yet very important topic;

“Kambakht- My next Film Has a Market”, Says Hamza Ali Abbasi

2

Hamza Ali Abbasi, a man who has proved himself as a capable film-maker and an adorable actor, is now all set with her next film venture, Kambakht, after the considerable success of his earlier projects, namely Mudhouse and the Golden Doll. While talking about his New project, Abbasi revealed that the film holds a quality humor, making it as an special ‘edition’ of the comedy films that are produced in Pakistan.

Although Hamza Ali Abbasi, beside been an exceptional film-maker, is a an actor by nature too, despite of his good looks and sensational personality has casted Ahsan Khan and Shafqat Cheema for the lead roles.

The Story revolves around the lives of two friends, who found themselves to land up with similar circumstances, although been belonging to two different worlds. Shafqat Cheema is going to play a role of a boy who is shown as a victim of Social regression, on the contrary to which, Ahsan Khan would represent the lifestyle of a city boy of Islamabad.

As Hamza hopes, this film will target a mass audience, attracting people of all ages, of all social classes. What makes this project different from the previous ones is the fact that Hamza has invested a lot more than that he did on Mudhouse and Golden Doll. Since his debut, Abbasi has always come up with something new, as cheaply as possible. Even the last project was based on the budget of Rs. 25,000 only. How strange is that!

Kambakht, the movie has also a privilege that the story has been written by this talented hunk himself. According to Hamza, “This Film has a Market”, shows that he is hopeful for a huge success.

Let’s see how things turn out to be for Ahsan Khan as the audience is looking for something new from his side. Best Wishes to Hamza Ali Abbasi for his upcoming projects,

“I’m not going to Nueplex Cinema ever again,” Shares Shamoon Abbasi

Syra Shahroze and Kent S. Leung starrer Chalay Thay Saath’s premiere was held on April 20th, and many celebrities attended the premiere. However, something unfortunate happened with Shamoon Abbasi as he was asked to leave the venue.

Finally found her!

A post shared by Shamoon Abbasi (@shamwolf) on

“When I entered the cinema hall there were no empty seats so I sat on the stairs instead since the film had started,” Abbasi told Instep. “I was invited by Zhalay [Sarhadi] personally so I decided to attend the premiere otherwise I had stopped going to certain events for the past one year.”

However what happened with him at Nueplex Cinema where the premiere took place urged him not to go there again. “I’m not going to Nueplex Cinema ever again,” he stated.

A post shared by Shamoon Abbasi (@shamwolf) on

Abbasi informed that while he was sitting on the stairs many people were courteous enough and asked him to take their seat but he refused. Suddenly a guy from cinema staff came and asked him to leave upon which he told them that he had been invited but since there was no seat he sat there and would leave shortly. “I didn’t want to create any scene as the movie had begun already,” the actor said. “But they came again and then the security guy grabbed me by the shoulder saying ‘Chalo chalo utho yahan se’ on which I was surprised and left right away. It was very rude of him to do that as if I’m a criminal or so.”

The incident went viral on social media and the cinema management responded saying it’s against their policy to allow anyone to sit on the steps. Abbasi said, “It’s the same cinema house that used to call me when Waar was running there. We went there several times, sat on the steps while they served us nachos and popcorns. Where was the policy at that time?”

“I had to put on weight for my character,” Saba Qamar Shares About ‘Hindi Medium’

Saba Qamar has already floored the critics with the trailer of her Bollywood debut ‘Hindi Medium’. After such an impressive trailer, one can only wonder how impactful the full-fledged film will be. The diva’s smashing debut across the borders is the most trending topic in Pakistan right now.

Speaking to Something Haute, Saba finally shared some details about her experience and the character.

“We had a great experience. Irrfan is such a great actor and such a humble man. It was amazing. At the end of the day all human beings are the same but then Bollywood is an established industry; the scale is very different.”

“I had to put on weight for my character,” she shared more about her experience. “And I had to train to get my Hindi right. I wanted to get the character right. There were times when I knew I looked bad but that’s what the role demanded. I feel that you have to work freely in cinema. You have to work without inhibitions.”

When asked, will she promote Hindi Medium with her crew?

“Absolutely,” she responded. “I’ll be traveling for the premieres in Dubai, Canada, and Australia.” Not India obviously. “In fact Raabta, starring Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon, is also releasing shortly afterwards and the four of us will be touring together.”

Saba then laughed at the way the media blew her Salman Khan comments out of proportion. “I am a no-filter kind of person,” she laughed,
