Pakistani stars are standing tall against Indian aggression from last night. India as always opened fire on Pakistan and targeted the civilian population in several cities after the Pehelgam Attack. This came after the Indian side was not able to provide any concrete proof of Pakistani involvement in the incident. India at first started with banning Pakistani YouTube channels and celebrity Instagram accounts. They have now once again showed their true colours and opened fire at cities of Muridke, Bahawalpur and Azad Kashmir. The Pakistani side has launched a response and several Indian Air Force jets have been downed inside the IIOJK.
Pakistani stars are also standing up for their country. Stars like Muneeb Butt, Fawad Khan, Hania Aamir, Urwa Hocane, Bilal Abbas Khan and others posted their sentiments and called out Indian aggression. Fawad and Hania called for de-escalation while others like Bilal and Muneeb did not mince words while calling out India.
Here are the statements released by the biggest Pakistani stars:
Red Sea Film Festival is another big festival in the world of cinema that started out in Jeddah Saudi Arabia and film stars from all over the world attend the event and good films are showcased.

The nationalist party Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) is speaking out loud that they want the Pakistani stars to leave India.
According to the Indian Express the film workers association of Raj Thackeray’s party have given the final warning to the Pakistani stars to leave India in next 48-hours. The party members also made this very clear that if the stars will not leave them self they will make them do that forcefully.
“We gave a 48 hours deadline to Pakistani actors and artists to leave India or MNS will push them out,” said Amey Khopkar, MNS Chitrapat Sena.
Due to the increasing tension between Pakistan and India over the Kashmir issue, some of the Indians have started speaking about the artists very rudely. Previously an Indian Journalist wrote a very harsh letter to Fawad Khan. However, some of the Indian disagree with such idea of banning Pakistani stars in India and also wrote a counter letter stating that Fawad is not a politician but a star.
This isn’t the first time Fawad and co have received threats from India’s nationalist parties. In October last year, Shiv Sena activists had threatened Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan.
Lets see what decision our stars take over the prevailing issue.
Iran and the USA have been fighting a war for a few weeks now. It was bloody, lives were lost, the Supreme Leader of Iran was assassinated and yet Iranis were not backing down and Donald Trump has been making stupid threats while he hold nuclear codes in his hands. The countries have reached a ceasefire and Pakistan ended up playing a key role in it.
Pakistan has been helping in negotiations between the two countries. The main objective was to stop the war and bring a bit of normalcy to the world which was moving towards World War 3. The way Pakistan ended up playing a peacemaker is being applauded by the nation as well as the world. Our celebrities are also sharing their appreciation.
Pakistani celebrities are also applauding authorities for playing a positive role in bringing peace to the world. They are also happy that the war has stopped or the whole world would have been engulfed by this fire.
Here is how Pakistani stars are reacting to the Iran-USA-Israel ceasefire while may are happy that Iran is finally safe now:
Eid is an auspicious occasion and Muslims get this beautiful day after a blessed month of Ramadan. Allah has blessed Muslims with this beautiful day to celebrate the prayers and blessings of the last 30 days. Eid is where we all try to put our best foot forward and bring our A-style game.

Pakistan’s showbiz community consists of many prominent actors, models and fashion designers who are Christians. But it isn’t just these celebrities who wish others Merry Christmas or participate in Christmas parties. Many Pakistani stars enjoy celebrating Christmas even though they are Muslims. They do so to show solidarity to their Christian friends and to keep them company. Many of our liberal Muslim stars even decorate their houses with Christmas lights and have a well decorated Christmas tree. This is because they like the concept of celebrating a holiday like that.
Waqar Ali Khan held a festive Christmas Hi-tea party in his house in London. Frieha Altaf was at a party with her close friends in Karachi last night. Even Ayesha Omer joined them on the occasion. She spent the afternoon with her friends too. Meesha Shafi spent the day with family and she was at a party with friends.

Humaira Asghar is an actress and model who passed away not too long ago. Her death has sent shockwaves through the nation as she was only 32 years old and this ending is tragic and something no one can wrap their heads around. The starlet was living alone in an apartment in Karachi for the last 7 years and she had not paid her rent for the last few months. Her landlord sued her and as the bailiff reached her house, they found out that she has been dead for over a month.
The news has shocked everyone including Humaira Asghar’s colleagues from the industry. Saheefa Jabbar said that this shows how navigating the industry can be challenging though it looks glamorous from the outside. Hina Altaf said this is a wakeup call for all of us. Many other stars like Humayun Saeed, Adnan Siddiqui, Fia Khan, Mawra Hocane and others have expressed grief over the shocking death.
This is what Pakistani stars had to say over Humaira Asghar’s death:
The Pakistan-India conflict has settled down for a while after the ceasefire announcement between the two countries. However, this conflict, followed by the deaths of civilians and army personnel, has sparked multiple debates among artists, TV anchors, and the public. In both Pakistan and India, artists are facing backlash for remaining silent on the matter. In Pakistan, many prominent actors chose to stay quiet, and people are criticizing them for it.
Atiqa Odho recently made headlines for supporting the actors, saying that artists should not be dragged into such conflicts because they are “soft image ambassadors.” However, her statement is receiving severe backlash.
Mishi Khan, Rabya Kulsoom, and Fatima Effendi have confronted Atiqa Odho for her remarks on the role of artists.
Mishi Khan said, “I was surprised to hear Atiqa say that actors are soft image ambassadors. It’s senseless. I expected more from you. When should artists speak? Forty civilians have been martyred, countless are injured—when is the right time to speak? Okay, we know you have great terms with Fawad, but at least stay silent instead of saying such things.” Here is the link to the video:
Fatima Effendi Kanwar also commented, saying that Atiqa Odho would urge others to remain silent when it comes to raising their voices for the country but would happily put down Pakistani actors on her show by degrading their dramas. She also added that all her chances and earnings from working in India are now in danger. Here is the post:
Rabya Kulsoom also came forward with a firm stance, saying, “So, neutrality and soft image are the new synonyms for ‘not being able to stand firm for your country and people’ and completely disregarding the fact that with great power comes great responsibility.” She further added, “You are what you are because of your goddamn country—and that is Pakistan! Respect it, embrace it, and freaking STAND BY IT OUT LOUD!”

The tension has escalated between the neighbouring countries Pakistan and India after India without any evidence started blaming Pakistan for Pulwama Attack. Since then things have been going in a very wrong direction and got even worse when Indian Airforce tried to enter Pakistan crossing the LOC. Indian artists were busy in the typical jingoism after that but Pakistani artists have been promoting peace.
Many of our stars have expressed their love for their country and have also been talking about the importance of peace and how war is not the answer. From Mahira Khan to Armeena Rana Khan, our stars have shown the world how important peace is. Here are a few of the messages:
Celebrities all over the world and in any showbiz industry are known for their talent, projects as well as their style. Many stars have a signature style which you can always connect to them. Like you can ask anyone about Kim Kardashian signature style and they will tell you its nude, brownish undertone makeup and outfits. Similarly, you if you hear the name of Bollywood star Vidya Balan, a picture of her clad in a traditional saari will come to your mind. We also have similar signature styles among Pakistani celebrities. Check out:
1. Hamza Ali Abbasi:
Hamza Ali Abbasi is known to wear black shalwar kameez wherever he goes. It is his signature fit and he actually brought it back among Pakistani men. He even wore his signature black shalwar kameez on his valima.
2. Mahira Khan:
Though Mahira does change her style a little bit depending on the projects she is doing but minimum foundation with a red lip is Mahira Khan’s signature look and you will see her repeat it time and again. She even wore it to her first outing at Cannes Film Festival.
3. Urwa Hocane:
Urwa Hocane has found her comfort in white and her signature style is a white outfit paired with a non makeup-makeup look.
4. Mehwish Hayat:
Mehwish Hayat loves glam. If Mehwish is attending an event, she will go for the full glam look. Mehwish does not seem to be a fan of no-makeup makeup looks and opts for the shimmers in her makeup as well as outfits. Mehwish is also seen in beautiful shimmery gowns on her public appearances. Another thing connected to her style.
5. Zara Noor Abbas:
Zara Noor Abbas does experiment with her styling but one of her favourite looks we have seen her opting often is baggy and boxy clothing. She avoids going for tight fitting dresses.
6. Humayun Saeed:
Humayun is not only consistent with his success and performances, he ia also consistent in his style sense. He is looking the same for years and we often see him in black suits with his signature beard and hair.
7. Hareem Farooq:
Long luscious hair side-parted and curled at the ends paired with a traditional outfit is how Hareem Farooq has been since her debut. And as they say why change anything that works.
8. Aima Baig:
Many call her Pakistan’s Ariana Grande as she is very petite with a powerful voice. Aima has found her signature style and she opts for very edgy looks and always maintains a rock star’s look.
9. Samina Ahmed:
Samina Ahmed is a legend of Pakistani industry who has also made her way to Hollywood successfully. Her beautiful earth toned saaris are just unforgettable and will make you think of her whenever you think about one.
10. Meesha Shafi:
Meesha not only has strong vocal range, she also has a strong sense of fashion. Think of Meesha and you will imagine someone with ethnic and edgy clothing and jewellery. She is also a fan of colour and is never afraid to wear a pop of colour.
Though many of our female stars have found their place on the fashion spectrum and have their own signature sense of style and looks, the male stars need to look away from contoured beard, spiky standing hair and find something unique which can make them stand out!

The year 2022 has indeed put Pakistan on the radar of International forums with our content and stars shining bright with their talent.
There are about hundreds of people who are been killed in Pakistan daily, becoming a victim of political instability and a complete absence of law enforcement. It is far easy to become a terrorist than to be a doctor or engineer here in Pakistan, thanks to the readily available cheap weapons, and make money by killing people, snatching their mobile belongings and kidnapping people for ransom.
It was previously Hasan Ahmed who was kidnapped for ransom, Sajjal Ali, who was threatened to pay a certain amount to the mafias, and it is now Pakistani stage actress Aarzoo who is brutally killed in Multan.
As per the news, the actress got shot on Saturday night, that is, September 29th when she returned from her stage. The family suspects Ahsaan, the man she was living with, for the murder though the actual story is yet not revealed. It is again nothing new to see this side of our stage actresses who do not believe in the boundaries that are been drawn by the religion this country follows, neither do they care about the society they live in.
The victim’s post mortem was held at Nishtar Hospital, Multan, which stated that Aarzoo Khan was twice shot.
See news here:
Aarzoo Khan was well-known by the stage lovers and enjoyed fame for her live acting and dance. She started her career while, still being in her early age.

From pioneering reviewing dramas to bringing you all the trending stories from the industry, Reviewit has always stood its ground to be a professional, unbiased, and relevant portal since its inception.
Yes, we understand plagiarism is not considered a crime in Pakistan and the disease has spread so much that one can get to the highest positions without ever being called out. But remember authenticity is what makes a portal credible and the originality of the editorial team is important to stay relevant for a longer period of time. Yes, we at Reviewit understand that others can get “inspiration” from the content we create but blatantly “copying” is unacceptable, even in this part of the world.
Our team is known for its professionalism where we always give credit when we pick up a piece of exclusive news from another portal but our sister portals have probably forgotten the basic ethics of journalism as they are blatantly copying our news and articles just after we post them and some are even copying our exact same statements.
So, a few humble suggestions from Reviewit would be that like our team watches every show to extract the clips that become viral news. You can also watch those yourself and maybe even get some new things to post. Or better yet, you can credit the people who actually brought that news forward.
As is written above, Reviewit believes in authenticity and posting with credits, here are some examples of social media portals copying our news blatantly. Maybe this will bring some basic journalistic ethics back into our sister portals and they will start giving as much tie to working on their own as much they are spending on pressing copy-and-paste buttons.
Here is a list of those media portals and even websites which are blatantly copy content from reviewit without giving any credit:
These are the screenshots from the past two to three days only. The above-mentioned portals have been copying entire entertainment content and text from Reviewit for years. We tried to reach out to them but they did not address our concerns therefore we had no choice but to call them out in this manner. Maybe now the people running these portals will wake up and smell the coffee that’s been brewing for quite a while now. We have a lot of respect for all the social media portals and therefore we never hold back while giving them due credit whenever and wherever it is due. However, clearly, they do not have the same work ethics which is extremely disappointing.
We would request all these portals and websites to either stop copying our content or specify that the content that they are posting is not original, citing the original sort which is Reviewit!
The world of sports looks healthier, fitter and glittery from the outside but keeping up with the competition is not an easy job. We have seen many top athletes in the world talking about their mental health and taking a step back to heal from the pain, pressure and depression they go through. A very big tragedy happened in Pakistan as the country lost a young snooker star Majid Ali to depression.
Majid Ali has committed suicide due to depression and this incident has sent shockwaves through the Pakistani snooker community. He was a silver medalist in the Under 21 category and he was a bright player of the game. His brother revealed his reason for committing suicide.
He said that Majid has been depressed for the last few years. He had no financial difficulties or any such problems but he was suffering from the condition and has taken his own life.
This is a matter of pain, sorrow and reflection for the nation as well when we see such a young, amazing talent committing suicide. This should trigger more conversations on mental health and may Majid rest in peace!
