Mujhe Pyaar Hua Tha started with the virality of its title song and a male lead character who people were dying for. Saad played by Wahaj Ali is soft, caring, loving and most of all respectful. Yes, these are traits that should be normal in dramas but unfortunately, it was unique to watch such a character on our screens. The drama had both Wahaj Ali and Hania Aamir, tbh a fail-proof combo for any drama right now but it still managed to go south with the story being so crazy that people are getting annoyed.

Maheer is always crying whenever you tune into the drama, Areeb is always in the hospital for whatever reason and then there is the beloved Saad making himself miserable for thankless people over and over again. All parents are crazy in their own right with Salma Hassan’s character being the craziest.

So, the only character making any sense right now is Saad’s sister Neelo played by Rabya Kulsoom. She is at least bearable and in the latest episode, she insulted Maheer which she kind of deserved simply for being dumb if for not anything else.

Here is the scene:

People are loving the insult Maheer faced and they are loving Neelo for standing up for her brother. This is what the internet thinks:

Zee5 had commissioned several series to be produced in Pakistan. We have already seen Churails, Ek Jhoothi Love Story, Dhoop Ki Deewar and Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam. The next to be released is Saba Qamar and Noman Ijaz starrer Mr and Mrs Shameem previously known as Man Jogi.

The trailer is out now and it looks unique and interesting:

People are loving the concept as well as watching two powerhouses Noman Ijaz and Saba Qamar together again. Here are the reactions:

Wearing Hijab is beautiful and it is not an easy job either especially in hot and humid weather. We see women walking in the streets, going to markets, workplace and educational institutes wearing burqas and many who do not wear full hijab are inspired by them but sometimes things become a little difficult for others when basic hygiene is ignored.

Adnan Zafar aka Ken Doll took to Instagram and he had some great advice for all the Hijabi girls out there. He pointed out something that people often ignore and consider a taboo i.e. pointing out the cleanliness of the burqa/hijab one is wearing. Regular washes of the abaya are ignored especially by young girls and in hot weather, t becomes unberable to stand close to a person with this issue.

This is what Ken said:

Netizens however criticized the video a lot and called Mahira’s reaction overacting while others also made comments that the videos does not look nice and she should not behave like a kid. This is what they were saying:

Ishq Murshid has become a phenomenon. The story is based in a fantasy world and runs like a fairytale for sure. Shahmeer Skiandar/Fazal Bakhsh played by Bilal Abbas Khan is the highlight of the show while his chemistry with Shibra played by Durefishan Saleem is what people are admiring. The drama is in its dragging phase now where the story is not moving forward but it is getting high TRPs and views on YouTube due to its massive fan following.

Many of the industry seniors and veterans have given negative views on Ishq Murshid lately. They have called it out on its fantasy genre story line, the bright lights on the leads making them shine all the time and “overacting”. Waseem Abbas said that he finds Bilal overacting in the drama. This is what he had said:

Later on, Shamoon Abbasi has also pointed out that the technicalities of Ishq Murshid are not something that he can decipher. He pointed out that the lighting on the faces of the leads look like torches and they are completely outdated which he cannot understand.

Television seniors Marina Khan, Nadia Khan and Sadia Imam have also reviewed Ishq Murshid and they are not too impressed with the drama recently. They also applauded Bilal Abbas Khan losing to Hamza Ali Abbasi’s Jaan e Jahan in their recent review:

People are not happy with Ishq Murshid and Bilal Abbas Khan getting criticism and they are voicing their opinions:

Fahad Mustafa is a well-recognized artist who has gained fame and popularity among masses. He has produced drama serials like Jalan and Nand which are highly controversial.

In a recent interview, he talked about how TV is the source of entertainment, not education. He said, “This big misunderstanding that TV will teach everything. No, TV won’t teach rather it will entertain. Let’s not make it a school like PTV’s drama. Pointing out small mistakes is not good if we can keep on doing like this then Anwar Maqsood wouldn’t be a legend who bluntly said everything in his time. I believe change is important but let it happen at its own pace.”

He shared his opinion on Minal Khan who was slapped so many times in Jalan and said, “Its wrong but its not getting normalized because we are not saying that this is right.”

The host interfered and said that the audience wants Nisha to die. On which Fahad Mustafa said, “The audience which is saying this on social media is not even the real audience. The audience has been like this and still, they are like this but now they have a place to say this.”

Talking about his responsibility towards the audience, he said, “My only responsibility is to add age limit on the drama. My kids and I have different Netflix and this is important.”

“All the kids have Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok and Jalan is the last thing we should talk about. So only television is not everything but the big problem is the cell phone,” he added.

Here is the interview clip!

The Summer season is around the corner which means the lawn season is on in Pakistan. The lawn has become an important part of the fashion industry in Pakistan. Each year we get to see all the designers coming up with heavy lawn joras consisting of embroideries, applique and heavy dupattas. Lawn is also getting expensive day by day and they are no less than custom designers joras rather than simple lawn which used to arrive every season. The lawn 2024 is also here and we got to see some really intricate designs this time.

Usman Mukhtar’s wife Zunaira Inam Khan loves to share her takes on different matters and she has said about the designer lawn what everyone wanted to say. She talked about how even bridal embroideries are now being incorporated into the lawn and people used to love the lawn for how light it was and that is not the case anymore.

Here is what Zunaira pointed out:

People out there agree with Zunaira’s assessment and it looks like many people are thinking that the lawn has become too luxurious for its own good. Here is how they agreed with Zunaira’s assessment:

Mahira Khan is our superstar whose talent is undoubtedly matchless. She has worked internationally and made Pakistan super proud. Her claim to fame project was Humsafar which made her overnight star.

Mahira has worked with Shahrukh Khan which is undoubtedly a big achievement. Mahira’s clip from an interview is surfaced now a days. In the viral video Mahira is once again seen talking about SRK and her first meeting which according to Netizens is repetitive and they are bored of her over way of telling her incident of first meeting with Shahrukh Khan.

Humayun Saeed is one of the biggest names of Pakistani media industry. He’s undoubtedly the biggest Pakistani film producer. Lately, the actor is set for release of his movie London Nahi Jaunga. The movie will be released on Eid Ul Azha 2022.

The actor and producer is pretty much hopeful that his movie is going to be successful, also he jas high hopes from Pakistani fans.

In his recent Interview he said, “I tell you one thing, Shahrukh and Salman are the heroes of a big film industry but when a Pakistani film gets hit in Pakistan, it does more business than any other movie, you have to keep your statistics intact about it as JPNA & PNJ did great business while international movies were also released in the meantime”. Humayun Saeed further said that even Indian movies PK and Sanju could not cross his movies. Likewise, in India whenever local films get hit, they do massive businesses. “It’s love for actors of your own country that people embrace their good work”, said JPNA actor. Have a look at it.

His statement was taken angrily and questionably by the netizens and they said that the actor has gone a little unreasonable in order to promote his movie. They said that JPNA was a great movie but here he has done a little exaggeration about it. People said that this confidence is ruining the industry.

Fahad Mustafa is the most successful and popular Pakistani film and television actor and host. He has numerous hit films and dramas on his pool. His drama Main Abdul Qadir Hoon proved to be a game changer for him. The actor often speaks about the film industry and the problems that are currently affecting the industry. He is also a staunch believer of supporting the local cinema.In his recent interviews, he talked about his upcoming film Quaid E Azam Zindabad. In interview with Independent Urdu, he promoted his film and said that it is a must watch. He urged his fans to watch movie for him. He said, “If you love me then you should spend 1200 on me”. He narrated popular politicians’ line “Khata Hoon to Lagata Bhi Hoo (even if I eat, I also spend money too) ” . The actor persuaded the audience about his movie but his appeal ignited public criticism.Fans said that he’s literally begging for his film. They said that there has been a lot of inflation so they will go if he will sponsor them. They said that situation in country is bad and there has been a lot of free political drama so they don’t want to watch any film. They said that he’s been too much confident that public loves him. One fan said, “If we spend 1200 on 2 months net package, we can see better entertainment on the net rather than one movie”. Fans trolled the actor for promoting his film like this. Mostly people negatively talked about his appeal for film because of inflation. Alot of people were of the view that they can have a tank full of petrol in 1200. Here are comments.

Feroze Khan is counted among the A-lister leading men of Pakistani dramas. We have seen him in back to back hits mostly performing roles of aggressive young men. Feroze Khan has been seen doing roles of abusive young men and things got real when his now ex-wife Syeda Aliza Sultan came out with a statement and accused him of physical and emotional abuse throughout their four year marriage. The couple had separated before but reconciled back then but this time things are over and the couple is not in courts fighting a harsh custody battle of their two children Sultan and Fatima.

After the divorce proceedings and with the arrival of Rabi ul Awal, Feroze Khan has gone to Makkah to perform Umrah and shared a picture of himself with his mother. The picture went viral as soon as it was shared online.

People started criticizing Feroze as soon as his picture surfaced and accused him of using religion to gain traction among his followers after allegations of abuse surfaced which he did not address. Here is what people had to say on Feroze going to Umrah suddenly after his divorce:

The case for children’s custody is still pending in court and will be decided this month!

When the horrific videos of Tik Toker Ayesha getting groped at Minar-e-Pakistan went viral, Yasir Shami and Iqrar-ul-Hassan instantly met her and Iqrar-ul-Hassan even encouraged her for filing an FIR.

The videos made the whole nation disgusted to the core. Almost all of the celebrities showed their anger and furiousness. But now people has started claiming that it was a publicity stunt. Tik Tok videos of Ayesha started circulating on social media and once again victim-blaming started.

Iqrar-ul-Hassan who showed his full support to Ayesha showed rage in one of his tweets on the mindset of our society. Iqrar called out those people who are saying that Ayesha is characterless and this was all a drama.

عائشہ کو مینارِ پاکستان پر صرف چار سو لوگوں نے نہیں نوچا، آج سوشل میڈیا پر اسے ڈراما اور بدکردارکہہ کر ہر درندہ اسے بھنبھوڑ رہا ہے۔ مطلب چار سو کرائے کے لوگوں سے یہ سب کروایا گیا اور ایک بھی حلال زادہ نہیں تھا جو اسے بچاتا۔ اصل میں یہ چار سو لوگ ہم سب ہی تھے، یہ ہمارا ہی چہرہ ہیں

— Iqrar ul Hassan Syed (@iqrarulhassan) August 19, 2021

After Iqrar-ul-Hassan published this tweet, people started accusing him as well. Some people said that one of Ayesha’s team members is a member of Sar-e-Aam which is why this whole stunt is planned by Iqrar-ul-Hassan himself. Some urged him to encourage Umm-e-Rabab as well who is another girl fighting for justice. Let’s have a look at the comments of people:

After the advent of internet, the world has become a global village. Now, people from different parts of the world can easily connect with each other, even games have become social media chat platforms and they are connecting people. People now play games like PUBG and also connect with the participants from different parts of the world. This development of the internet has benefited the society a lot but in most of the cases it has destroyed the minds of younger generation. Recently, an incident is doing rounds on social media in which a Pakistani girl Seema allegedly went to Nepal and fled with her Indian friend.

According to details, the 27 years old girl was already married to a man named Haider and she had four kids with him . She connected to her Indian friend in Nepal and fled to India, her kids are also with her while his Pakistani husband is demanding for his kids. The lady isn’t ready to go to Pakistan. She doesn’t want to send her kids to Pakistan. Watch the full interview of the lady:

Almost all the people are saying that she has taken a very wrong step and soon she will come to know about her wrong decision. Many social media users were of the view that she has fallen prey to a false love and left her home and country and changed her religion as well. A social media user wrote, “after having four kids, she’s complaining about not getting real love in life”. A few people were even saying that it also seems to be a fabricated and made up story as she is speaking like pure Indians and her dicton is having pure hindi words. Most of the social media users criticized the young lady and said that she will put her self into trouble in the name of false love. A social media user wrote, “she should send the kids to her husband”.

Here are the screenshots from the interview:

As PTA has decided to ban Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) Mobile for being addictive and harmful for player’s health.

Well, we all know about the history of clashes between Pakistani governments and their institutions happening one way or the other. Pakistan is in a very tight space economically and we need help from the neighbouring countries and friends to come out of this. Since taking the office, Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan has been trying his best to take the country out of this situation. He has visited some friendly countries and has signed deals to help Pakistan cope with the economic crisis.

In wake of these events, the Prime Minister is in China to sign some deals and help to further strengthen the economy. During his address, the National channel of Pakistan PTV broadcasted his address with Begging written on it instead of Beijing. This was counted as an error as it was aired for some seconds before getting corrected. Now the managing director of PTV has been removed due to this. The decision was approved by the Minister of Information, Fawad Chaudhary. Here is the notice:

Whatever our feelings may be towards the government, whether we support it or not, this was an embarrassment for the nation. Do you agree with the sacking decision? Let us know!

PTV is our national institution which is backed by public funds. Every year more than six billion rupees collected from PTV license fee are allocated to PTV but still it lags far behind in the current competitive world.

Despite huge resources, buildings, an army of producers PTV is struggling with financial crisis. Despite injecting billions every year, it is running in a loss of 60 million rupees each year.

Recently MD of PTV appeared before standing committe of senate where he explained the sorry plight of this national institution.

As per Muhammad Maalik who is the Managing Director of PTV, out of the six billion (recieved as TV license fee) 5.25 billions are spent on wages and 40 million are consumed by medical bills. To overcome the deficit PTV is now taking a loan of two billion rupees from commercial banks, while many of its buildings are already mortgaged

PTV has more than six thousand employees. As per Muhammad Maalik, he wants to fire 4990 employees out of these 6000 provided he has the authority to execute the plan. Many of PTV officials are incompetent and cannot check their emails and the national television is running solely by the backing of ALLAH. One centre of PTV has seventy producers whereas it only airs daily programs of two hours. Recently PTV has sacked nearly 80 employees with fake degrees.

The militant organization of Taliban is also causing damages to PTV’s installations in the region of FATA thus resulting in recurring expenses in that region.

Here is the reference excerpt from Urdu Daily Jang

This is the one side of the story, on the other side are the employees of PTV who have their own reasons. As per PTV Employees Union, the cause of PTV’s Financial crisis is the high salaries of Managing Director and other high officials.

Federal Information minister Fawad Chaudhry has made some biggest announcement related to state channel PTV. He has announced to revamp old PTV setups and also confirmed about two mega periods plays in collaboration with Uzbekistan.

The federal minister said that after revamping PTV news, PTV Entertainment ( PTV Home) and PTV sports will also be revamped and these upcoming projects are the continuation of the plan of revamping the channel.

Fawad Chaudhry tweeted, “After Pakistan Television News, PTV is now revamping its sports and entertainment channels . PTV will make a long drama series on Babar and Ghalib in partnership with Uzbekistan and Pakistan. Preliminary preparations have been started in this regard”

The fans got excited to hear about it. After the success of Ertugrul in Pakistan, many producers are rooting for mega period plays now in Pakistan. Humayun Saeed has also collaborated with Turkish producers in this regard. It is to be remembered that Pakistan television has previously made drama serials like Babar, Labbaik and Tipu Sultan which went popular at that time.

Game Shows are the latest trend on different channels. It is a good way to engage the public in the shows and to gain popularity. Different Game Shows show different kinds of games. People volunteer to play these games and those people who win, get prices. Pakistani public has proved before too that they can do anything for prizes but one video from a PTV game show has gone viral in which we see a girl from the audience volunteering to play a game which is cheap. The game show is hosted by Fiza Ali. It isn’t just the way the game is played which is objectionable but the way the camera covers it is also being criticized by the general public. People are questioning the logic behind devising such games. It is shameful that people are willing to do anything for getting prizes and the game show hosts also do not choose games for their shows that are decent and entertaining.

Here is the video of the game which is being criticized by everyone.

PTV has already circulated letters to power distribution companies and Karachi Electric Supply Corporation (KESC). As per letter received at Lahore Electric Supply Corporation (LESCO), PTV has referred a case from its fifth survey, where a commercial electricity customer has 600 TV sets, and it is suggested to charge 36,000 rupees as PTV license fee in electricity bill. If approved, the new rule will be applied to commercial consumers first and later to domestic consumers.

لاہور (ندیم بسرا) وفاقی حکومت اور پیپکو نے شہریوں پر مہنگائی کا ایک اور بم گرانے کے لئے بجلی کے بلوں میں ٹی وی فیس گھروں اور کمرشل جگہوں پر چلائے جانے والے ٹی وی سیٹ کی تعداد سے بھجوانے کا فیصلہ کیا ہے۔ اس حوالے سے پاکستان ٹیلی ویژن (پی ٹی وی) نے تمام تقسیم کار کمپنیوں بشمول کراچی الیکٹرک سپلائی کمپنی (کے ای ایس سی) کو باقاعدہ لیٹر لکھ دیا ہے۔ تفصیلات کے مطابق بجلی کے بلوں میں درجنوں قسم کے ٹیکسز پہلے ہی لگائے گئے ہیں اور گزشتہ کئی برسوں سے صارفین ان ٹیکسز کو بڑی باقاعدگی سے ادا کر رہے ہیں۔ اس کے باوجود وفاقی حکومت ان ٹیکسز کو کم کرنے کی بجائے مزید اضافے کا ارادہ رکھتی ہے اس بارے میں تمام تقسیم کار کمپنیوں اور کیسکو کو لکھے گئے لیٹر میں کہا گیا ہے کہ کمرشل صارفین سے ٹی وی سیٹ کے حساب سے 60 روپے فی ٹی وی چارج کیا جائے۔ اس بارے میں لیسکو کو ایک لیٹر دیا گیا ہے جس میں پی ٹی وی کے اپنے پانچویں سروے کا حوالہ دیا گیا ہے جس میں بتایا گیا ہے کہ بعض کمرشل صارفین ایک وقت میں کئی کئی ٹی وی سیٹ چلا رہے ہیں۔ لاہور میں ایک کمرشل صارف کے پاس 6 سو ٹی وی سیٹ کا حوالہ دیا گیا ہے اور لکھا گیا ہے کہ اس کے بل سے 36 ہزار روپے چارج کئے جائیں۔ ذرائع کا کہنا ہے کہ پیپکو کے ایم ڈی نے تمام تقسیم کار کمپنیوں کے سربراہان کو کمرشل صارفین سے فی ٹی وی سیٹ چارج کرنے کا عندیہ دیا ہے اور بعدازاں اس قانون کو گھریلو صارفین پر نافذ کرنے کا کہا ہے۔ واضح رہے کہ واپڈا کے ڈیڑھ کروڑ سے زائد صارفین ٹی وی فیس کی مد میں پہلے ہی رقم ادا کر رہے ہیں۔ حالانکہ زمینی حقائق دیکھے جائیں تو ہزاروں کے قریب ایسے صارفین ہیں جن کے گھر میں ٹی وی موجود نہیں ہیں ان سے بھی ٹی وی فیس لی جا رہی ہے۔

PTV is Pakistan’s oldest television network, which began its transmission in November 1964. The entertainment channel was once widely admired for its classic dramas, quality productions, and educational content. Over the decades, PTV witnessed many highs and lows as different political governments and military regimes influenced its programming and policies. During the tenures of leaders like General Ayub Khan and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, television experienced a relatively modern outlook. However, under General Zia-ul-Haq’s rule, PTV adopted a much more conservative approach. The cultural impact of that era remained so significant that many believe Pakistani television never fully returned to the level of creative freedom it once enjoyed.

Recently, a clip from the 1970s PTV play Parchaiyaan has been making the rounds on social media. The scene features both older and younger women wearing bold sarees, with sleeveless blouses that have surprised many viewers from the current generation. The vintage fashion has sparked widespread discussion online, as many Pakistanis believe such attire would be considered too bold for television today. Watch the clip here:

Social media users were quite surprised by the modern and progressive television programming of that era. One user wrote, “There was so much obscenity back then.” Another asked, “Was that really PTV? Did this actually air on television?” A third commented, “Pakistan Television was so modern at that time.” Another wrote, “PTV was quite bold and almost near to nudity back then.” Many users also appreciated how gracefully the actresses carried the sarees. One commented, “The lady in the black saree is wearing it so elegantly, even though her blouse is quite short.” Another wrote, “It was the 1970s, when Pakistan was moving towards modernism.” Read the comments:

The PTV inquiry committee has recommended to off-air anchorperson Dr Nauman Niaz and Shoaib Akhtar from PTV sports show Game On Hai, Dr Nauman Niaz asked Shoaib Akhtar to leave the show in live transmission on state TV on 26th October 2021.

The inquiry committee set up by state TV is still investigating in to the issue till this verdict. According to sources, the meeting was attended by the Managing Director of Pakistan Television (MDPTV) and other officials.

The meeting examined the incident with Shoaib Akhtar. The meeting reviewed the preliminary report on the incident as well. According to sources, all the on-air and off-air recordings of the program were seen in the meeting. The inquiry committee also questioned Dr Noman Niaz.

According to sources, MD PTV during the meeting instructed Nauman to bring an alternative anchor in his place but Dr. Noman Niaz refused to do that and said that if he could not do the program himself, he will not refer to anyone.

Shoaib Akhtar, on the other hand, has said that he has resigned in front of Pakistan and the whole world, in live show, so how can PTV off-air him. Here is his tweet after PTV’s current verdict.

It is to be noted that after the match between Pakistan and New Zealand on October 26, Dr Nauman Niaz misbehaved with Shoaib Akhtar in live show on state television.

It often happens the new generation is not familiar with what their parents or grandparents watched on Tv. But it is otherwise with the millennials. They have YouTube and many other streaming services where they can watch the classics. PTV classics are those beautiful plays that neither people of the older generations nor the newer ones are ready to get over. What if I tell you that one of those eternal classics is being revived?

Well, brace yourself before we give you the story of the day. PTV classic Alif-Noon which starred Kamal Ahmed Rizvi as smart and cunning Alan and Rafi Khawar as innocent Nanha is making a comeback. It has been televised many times after its original run. The show had also made a successful transition from black and white to the color television but this time it is not going to be a television play. Rather, it will be grander than before. The satirical show is going to be turned into a movie. Isn’t it amazing? Well, yeah it is super amazing.

In an interview to a tabloid, Shahzad Roy who is playing Allan in the film said, “Alif Noon is now being converted into a feature film and will be released in 2019.”  It will also star Faisal Qureshi as Nanha. Teen Batta Teen also revealed that apart from acting, he will be writing and directing the film as well.
