Shahood Alvi is counted among the most versatile actors that we have in Pakistan. He came into the industry with a passion for direction but eventually got into acting. He has performed all sorts of characters over the years and eh has the ability to grip the audience with his presence. He is also a proud girl dad and always expresses love for hs wife and daughters.
Shahood Alvi was a guest on FHM podcast and spoke about female and male child. He shared that he never felt that he did not have a son. He also said that both girls and boys do love their parents. Daughters are a bit more expressive while sons keep a distance. He also said that sons get busy with providing for the family which makes them more distant as compared to daughters.
This is what the actor said:
Shahood Alvi also had some practical advice to actors for handling criticism. He said not everyone will be intelligent enough to understand your character or circumstances. Thus be ready for trolling if you become an actor. You can help them understand with patience and that is how it should work.
Ramadan is a time of blessings, prayers, and peace. All Muslim countries turn on a unique colour as soon as the Holy month starts and everywhere we see specific traditions being followed. Muslim countries also see a shift in television programming after the commencement of the month of blessings. The same trend is seen in Pakistan where all the television channels change their tone and tenor. Things have changed a lot in the past few years and the colours of Ramadan have not been the same as they used to be.
PTV used to be the only channel Pakistanis had a few decades ago and Ramadan had a very different feel in the golden era of PTV. People used to get the news of the new moon through PTV. There used to be instant deletion of any music from the channel. The presenters would all wear dupattas and suddenly there were special programs. Taraweeh and Tilawat from Makkah were broadcast and Ramadan Mahaafil from all over the country were telecasted on PTV. Other programs also mellowed down and coloured in the Ramadan spirits. Most of the Naats we all love today were broadcast during Ramadan.
The current era of Ramadan also sees different kinds of programs but commercialism and capitalism has unfortunately enveloped the Holy month and it is all about promoting brands now. Here is how the Ramadan transmissions have changed over the years:
The Hosting
Ramadan transmissions have become a staple for all the channels now and they even fight for TRPs. It is less about knowledge and more about ratings. The hosting of these shows is also questioned a lot. Though we have seen many actors hosting these transmissions and they largely remain respectful, we have seen hosts like Iqrar ul Hassan who keeps getting targetted for his personal life choices throughout the year, and celebrities like Veena Malik who have done a show like Astaghfar for Ramadan. The gimmicry unfortunately has become a part of the package and you cannot escape it.
Humans As Props
Ramadan transmission also came up with the idea of reaching out to different demographics. Initially, we saw children’s segments being introduced to appeal to the younger generation. In old times, children used to participate in PTV programs which is a tradition that got lost over the years. This new idea was re-introduced of having kids to be a part of the main programming but now these children have become props to get TRPs. Every channel has a group of kids used to make viral content.
Weird Segments
Recently Ramadan transmissions have seen a rising trend of weird conversations bordering on inappropriate and these are running on live television in programs that are supposed to be religious. They are completely unnecessary and should not be broadcast on live television.
Ramadan has become an opportunity for commercialism for all the channels. From the clothes that the hosts are wearing to their handwash and the oil they are putting in their recipes, everything is sponsored and all these sponsors are shown a hundred times on the screen even if it is a Naat segment or a segment with scholars.
Brainrot Masala Dramas
Entertainment is an important part of one’s life and having good family shows to watch is a must. We got Suno Chanda which ended up becoming a mega hit with the audience as the drama had a Ramadan background and some fun banter which lightened up the mood. We also had some really good Ramadan dramas after that but now this has become a formula for selling brainrot comedy and unnecessary love stories every year. The shows are not even getting the same amount of love anymore and each year we are seeing more criticism coming towards these shows which have nothing related to Ramadan and this was not a practice in the past.
Game Shows
Game shows like Jeeto Pakistan have become staples of entertainment during Ramadan, in contrast to the more subdued shows like Bazm-e-Tariq-Aziz that were popular in the past. This shift has sparked mixed feelings among viewers, leading to ongoing debates on social media about whether these game shows should continue to air.
The growing demand from sponsors and channels for commercialization has harmed the peaceful spirit that was once a hallmark of Ramadan programming. If channels want to capture the attention of younger audiences, they need to improve their approach rather than relying on the same formula repeatedly.

Fans are currently enjoying her social media presence because of her regular Vlogging on her official YouTube channel. Besides this, Bushra Ansari is also appearing in various Ramzan transmissions. She recently appeared in Express TV’s Ramzan transmission, hosted by Javeria Saud.
In the transmission, she talked about Atiqa Odho’s statement about refusing mother’s role in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum.
In response to Javeria Saud’s question, “I don’t know if I should mention it or not, but Atiqa Odho once said that she refused KMKT role because she didn’t want to become Fahad Mustafa’s mother as she is younger for that character. What are your thoughts on it?”. Bushra Ansari said, “She is younger than me, no doubt about it. However, someone also told me that she already has played Fawad’s mother years ago. I think she just mentioned it casually because she had an issue related to dates. Also, perhaps Fahad Mustafa matched himself with me. I often tease Fahad, saying, ‘You matched mother’s character with one sibling and father’s character with the others.’ He said, ‘I already told to the team that I’m going to have Javed Sheikh and Bushra Ansari as my parents in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum.”

Nasir Adeeb recently appeared in Shaan e Sahoor with her daughter Zoya Nasir. In the show, he opened up about his daughter’s stance regarding his viral statement about Reema.
Talking about it, Nasir Adeeb said, “She made me realize that it was a mistake, and I am proud of the fact that she supported Reema on whatever I said, although, I never intended to hurt anyone. I also apologized for it. However, what made me most proud was her attitude that she supported the other party. I am her father, but I am also a human being who commits mistakes. Although, I don’t believe in spreading lies, I always spoke truth but now I understand that not every truth should be shared on TV.” Here is the link to the video:
Zoya Nasir also said, “It’s a channel where my father works. He goes there and talks, his speech is recorded there and he comes back. At that time, we used to have a very contained environment like our drawing room. Nowadays, there is a fact checking on internet, so we have to be careful while speaking, as things stay on the internet forever. You shouldn’t say anything that could have a negative impact online.” Here is the link to the video:

She sometimes shares balanced views on controversial statements made by celebrities. Recently, she appeared as a guest on a Ramzan show hosted by Mansha Pasha and Zhalay Sarhadi. During the show, she shared her opinion on a viral statement by Saima Qureshi regarding women’s earnings.
Saima Qureshi stated that women’s earnings do not bring blessings and prosperity to a household.
In response to Mansha Pasha’s question, “We have examples like Hazrat Khadija (R.A.), but today, working women are criticized by other women. What are your thoughts on this?” Nadia Khan replied, “I think you are referring to the specific viral statement. In my opinion, Barkat (prosperity and blessings) comes from halal earnings, whether by a woman or a man. If the income is halal, it will bring Barkat to the household. It is not about the gender because Allah loves us all. We are often more influenced by cultural beliefs than Islamic teachings. We need to learn and practice Islam.” Here is the link to the video:

Kubra Khan and Gohar Rasheed are the latest celebrity couple to tie the knot. They had a series of events and their Nikkah became the highlight for the fans. Their Nikkah took place in the Holy Mosque Kaabah in Makkah and the video shared by the newlyweds garnered a lot of positivity from their fans.
Engineer Muhammad Ali Mirza is a scholar who was a guest on Samaa Punjabi. He received a call where the person wanted to know if Gohar Rasheed kissing on his wife Kubra Khan’s forehead in Haram after Nikkah was right or not. She also added that Islam is a very soft religion so this is allowed or not.
Engineer Muhammad Ali Mirza slammed the couple and said that Gohar Rasheed kissed Kubra Khan’s forehead in Masjid Al Haram and this is not right. A husband and a wife should be loving towards each other but there is no need to showcase such affection in public. They only kissed on the forehead but someone else may hug and so forth and that is not right.

Farshi Shalwar has been trending on social media lately, with designers, brands, and fashion enthusiasts all talking about it. This stylish revival seems to be a deliberate move by designers to bring back Shalwars after the dominance of straight pants, culottes, and flappers.
The Farshi Shalwar is a traditional South Asian attire known for its regal and elegant look, with deep historical roots in the Mughal era. The name Farshi comes from the Persian word Farsh (meaning “floor”) because this specific Shalwar extends to and touches the floor.
The Farshi Shalwar trend usually resurfaces for short periods, as it primarily appeals to young girls. Many elderly women believe that this fashion suits only a specific body type—particularly tall and lean figures. Interestingly, several stylish Pakistani actresses wore the Farshi Shalwar even before it became a trend. Celebrities like Sadaf Kanwal, Ayeza Khan, Maya Ali, Sana Javed and Mahira Khan embraced this look years ago. In 2025, many actresses have embraced the Farshi Shalwar Trend.

Now, the good thing is that people are becoming more mature and respectful, especially the upcoming generation of actors, which is very sensible and courteous. They know how to behave and respect their seniors. The industry is flourishing in the right direction. Also, if someone has said something in the past, whatever was the context of that statement, I am sure he didn’t mean to target anyone or it wasn’t directed towards someone. It was definitely said from a different perspective. I am certain the one who said had no intention of hurting anyone. Everyone knows that Fahad Mustafa is like a younger brother to me and I know him very well. We also had differences with our seniors, but I never responded disrespectfully or showed any disregard toward them.” Saba Faisal also said that they are not supporting Fahad Mustafa because he is their fraternity member but he is a genuinely very respectful person.

Dil Wali Gali Mein is a new Ramadan drama that is airing on Hum TV. Starring Sajal Aly and Hamza Sohail in the lead roles, the show has already garnered good feedback. This is not a typical Ramadan drama thus not everyone’s cup of tea. It revolves around the love of two youngsters Deeju and Mujji and how they navigate the problems of married life as love is not the end line.
Dil Wali Gali Mein is showcasing how life can become traumatic from very small things which we do not even consider in our homes. As Deeju is married to Mujji and moves to his school/house, she finds out that the supposed “attached bathroom” he was talking about is basically the staff washroom of the school. She is flustered and she cannot understand how to live with the judgment that she has to face just by going to the Loo.
This is the scene:
These scenes have started a debate on the internet. Many people are saying that the joint family system is like cancer and a mother-in-law is never happy when her son takes care of his wife. The girl also does not even get basic facilities and freedom and an attached bathroom is just a basic need. Some are however not satisfied with the drama and think that this is not giving enough Ramadan vibe:

Dr Affan Qaiser said, “I was invited to multiple Ramzan transmissions to which I refused because I closely followed Dr. Aamir Liaquat’s life and how he passed away, it shows, how hollow this whole system is. Recently, Dawn news has published an article and it also has this clip in which a newly married guy is discussing his problem that he developed physical intimacy with his wife during fasting because he couldn’t control it. He asked if his fast was still valid or not. Now, it is a Ramzan transmission which is being watched by kids, siblings and family members. I don’t know what the delay time of the channel is? Did the channel air the clip deliberately for ratings? It is also being published by multiple social media portals. Likewise , bold women on Tiktok are being invited in Ramzan transmission. One of my acquaintances, Shahida invited me to a Ramzan transmission which I refused. I would rather prefer conducting a free camp at Maulana Tariq Jameel foundation. This is why I never go to Ramzan transmission”. Here is the link to the video:

After a while, the director came to me and said that I had to rehearse with Imran Hashmi. I told the director that I am not going anywhere—he will come to me for rehearsals. Eventually, the director made him come to me, and we rehearsed together. I worked with him for many days, but I never spoke to him. I didn’t even look at him except during work”.

Ushna Shah is an actress and now host who has always been open about her life choices. She has also been open about how she has maintained her fitness throughout her career and she has recently lost a lot of weight bringing in the change in her appearance. She was speaking to Srha Asgr in her show and revealed a bad cosmetic procedure that she got.
The starlet shared that she is not too comfortable with how much filler people have been getting in their faces lately as it has distorted their ability to emote. She also shared the one time she got fillers done to her face. Ushna Shah was very frank and shared the horror story she faced.
Ushna Shah shared that she has insomnia and consequently very bad dark circles. A doctor told her that getting under eye filler will help with the problem and she got it which actually improved the appearance. Later on she went to another salon and the owner told her that she can also inject the fillers for her. This time the fillers reacted and her eyes were badly swollen. She also had to get those dissolved and now she has scars under her eyes. She has therefore decided to never get fillers again.
