When Maulana Tariq Met Amir Khan – A Must Watch Video

0

A couple of days back, I was just wandering at facebook and came across Maulana Tariq Jameel’s Bayan saying “when he met Amir Khan”. I did not give it a watch and move on with searching for other stuff. Twice or thrice , I came across the post again and then decided to watch it after downloading it.

And now that I have watched it, I really want to share that Bayan with my readers too. Maulana eagerly wanted to meet Amir Khan as he wanted to give “Paighaam e Haq” to him,as said by Junaid Jamshed.

After watching whole of the Bayan, I realized that we have made Islam so much difficult to grasp and follow.One can simply go through all teachings of Islam without being ultra-serious. No one said that preach Islam with immense seriousness so that listeners might get bored with what you are saying.

I am badly impressed by the way Maulana Tariq is adopting to preach the religion to Amir; gradually and slowly.For the first time Maulana told about his personal meeting with Amir Khan. Its a must watch video. Do watch it.

 


When Maulana Tariq met Amir Khan – A must watch… by reviewit

 

P.s. For those who are unable to watch it through this link, visit Maulana Taiq Jameel’s facebook page,it was Bayan of Nov 22nd.

I am waiting for the day when Amir will become a true Muslim.Lets pray that we muslims will get “Khair” from Allah Almighty of which we are deprived now.

Stay Blessed,
Rabia Basharat.

When Mahira Khan was not let go off easily in India so, why should we let you go off so easily? – An Immigration Officer Told Sara Khan

Sara Khan is a known television personality in India; after performances in soaps such as Bedaai and Susral Simar Ka, the actress became a fan favourite across the borders. Recently, she appeared in a high rated Pakistani drama, Beykhudi which allowed her to create a fan following on this side of the border too.

“Working culture is different. A few though yet major differences are there. Over there they don’t believe in creating sets at all. Every location is a real location. The makeup is also very natural. It doesn’t feel as if it is some shoot happening but like a real life thing, it’s so natural. After working in Pakistan I realised that realism is very important. The real incidents that they focus on are executed well in their shows,” said Sara speaking to Pinkvilla.

“I have met so any people out there who love India for its beauty and culture. They love Bollywood. In their cinema halls, most of our Bollywood movies run while on their TV sets, our shows are always playing.”

When asked if she faced problems in Pakistan, Sara replied, “I never faced any tension or stress at work. You know, my producers out there were very considerate considering I was the only Indian out there. I got more respect because I was an Indian.”

She then shared her unpleasant experience with an immigration officer and shared that the officer said, “When Mahira Khan was not let go off easily in India and was deported from the Indian airport at Delhi, so why should we let you go off so easily.”

Laikin Starting from today Hope u guys r not missing it Only on aplus #ssarakhan #pakshow

A post shared by sara khan (@ssarakhan) on

Any message to fans from both India and Pakistan?

“That was the only incident that happened at the immigration counter, else nowhere did I face any kind of comparison or was held against the happening with Mahira Khan in India. In fact, outside, they all took every care of me. You know, I have been going to Pakistan for 6-7 months. This is my second show out there. The way we were unaware about a lot of things and relied on news channels, similarly, over there, people weren’t aware of the scenario faced by Mahira Khan and Fawad in detail. They too relied on news channels. I used to travel after 15 days to both the countries and see that things were pretty normal here and there as well,” she added.

When asked if she has any message for fans from both India and Pakistan?
Sara responded, “The fans who really want the talent on board in both countries, I want to thank them for supporting talent and to those who think ill about both the countries, please understand first and then comment on anything.”

So, Asma Abbas visited Imran Ashraf’s newborn baby boy and it was a sight to see as reel life Amma and Bhola bonded with the real-life baby boy. It is a beautiful moment for the fans to see them together in real life and it is always great to see co-stars getting along well like family:

When Amma Came To See Bhola's Baby

Congratulations to Imran again from our side!

When Ali Abbas Faced Trolling Because of Mahira Khan

Replying to the question about trolling and public bashing, he said, “I once faced trolling of public when I talked about Mahira Khan, once Mahira’s picture came out, she was wearing full clothes, there was nothing bad in it. People criticized that picture a lot and said that she’s not wearing Duppata, I said to them, ‘if she’s not wearing Duppata, you should lower your gaze’, he said that he had to face a lot of abuse after that and then he decided to stay quiet.

Whatsapp, Viber, Tango Shut in Karachi-Sindh, for 3 Months-Sources!

0

The month of September has had been a controversial one in terms of political instability within Sindh where the disturbance was all felt, thanks to the concealed story which exists in between the political parties and the law enforcement forces. While Pakistan is still busy, finding its current position internationally due to the sudden raised Pak-India L.O.C issues, the most important province of the country is again in the hit list of people who are not ready to accept its solidity.

It was only few hours’ back when the social media was all bombarded with fake news that Facebook will be shutting down in Pakistan, but a serious blow has been given to the voice over internet protocol (VoIP) services just today, that is, October 3rd, 2013.

It is time to give all your smartphone fun a pause for a while as there will be no more Whatsapp, Viber, Tango and Skype services available on your smartphones/tablets/laptops because they are under a ban of 3 months, as stated by Chief Minister Sindh Qaim Ali Shah.

 65054_717205678293271_1672717258_n (1)

Making his point clear while talking to media about the news, Information minister Sharjeel Memon stated that as per the reports revealed by the intelligence agencies, Terrorists and criminal elements are using these networks to communicate after the targeted operation was launched. It is highly difficult to trace the communication channels been established by the VoIP softwares; hence, the service will now be blocked in Sindh for a period of 3 months.

It is to be remembered that this is nothing new for the countrymen here as it is almost more than a year that YouTube was banned in Pakistan which is, still giving a tough time to the students, technicians, workers, in general, people of different niches, differently.

It is challenging to comment about the positivity to be expected out of the decision just taken but there is one thing for sure, Pakistanis who previously found themselves connected to their loved-ones abroad will now have to spend a great deal of money in establishing communications.

Share your views please; is it a right strategy to isolate the people of this land by banning all tools and services which are utilized by users like you and me?

Blessings,

Nida Zaidi

Lately one of the Pakistani website revealed that the rock star Atif Aslam only charges 8 lac for one song in Bollywood. Where as one of his biggest rival Honey Singh charges 15 lac. On the other hand Arijit Singh takes 13 lac and Mohit Chauhan charges 7-8 lac.

No matter how low Atif is charging the Bollywood still his magical voice has conquered hearts of many and we wish and hope he keeps on spreading the magic always.

Lately Atif’s new song “Toota Jo Kabhi Taara’ from Flying Jatt movie featuring Tiger Shroff while Tere Sang Yaara from Rustom movie is also a melodious tune on everyone’s lips.”

Whatever happened to our Pak Sar Zameen?

Pakistan was a country that was created in 1947 as an independent nation for Muslims from the regions in the east and west of Subcontinent where there was a Muslim majority. The term Pakistan also had a dual meaning of ‘Land of the Pure’, implicit in that it would enable the population of the new country to rid itself of corruption, class /economic distinction and previously rigid social restriction and move forward on a uniform scale while preserving religious and cultural purity which was degenerating in mainland India where Muslim practices where mixing up and often similar to those practiced by local Indian religions and a gradual deviation from Islamic principles. Isn’t it ironic then that the country that was built on the sacrifices of so many hasn’t lived up to the ideologies on which it was created?

Since this is not a lesson on history neither a political discussion, let’s get back to our dramas and how they depict some of the deviations from Islam that sadly exist in our society. For starters, let’s take weddings. Our weddings are getting more and more elaborate with everyone’s primary objective to display their massive wealth. The bride’s trousseaux (jahez) happens to be a hot topic in many of our dramas even though this is a practice that is prevalent amongst Hindus and is among a growing list of borrowed customs with no religious basis. This has been the cause of many disputes and acts of violence- The drama Aise Jale Jiya dealt with this in much detail.

ajj

The issue with daughters being born. Daughters are considered a blessing but sadly some cultures still continue to practice female genocide and abort the girl child. Many of our dramas discuss these issues as if this was a norm in our religion whereas this doesn’t hold true! In Mera Naseeb, the mother-in-law threatens to abort her grandchild upon finding out the gender of the baby!

mn

While there is no defined dress code, Islam stresses on modesty. Why then do we see women wearing saris with their midriff showing? Surely they can just as easily wear a sari with a full-blouse? Revealing clothing seems to be the distinguishing factor between the elite and the middle class. Don’t our dramas over-emphasize that over and over again?

Rituals at the time of death- lately most of our dramas seem to show everyone wearing white on funerals. Where did this concept come from? Again, there is no requirement to wear white to depict sorrow. On the contrary, white represents purity and should be worn for Jumah prayers and weddings. Today’s episode of Mohabbat Subh Ka Sitaara Hai showed everyone wearing white at Nabeel’s funeral.

Mohabbat-Subh-Ka-Sitaara-1

Breaking of bangles for widows and taking away their jewelery- this one is just a bit much! I saw a scene in Zindagi Tere Bina and was disgusted. Whilst a widow would naturally resort to simplicity, there is absolutely no mention of taking it to such extremes. Seems like Star Plus is inspiring us a little more than we imagined! Treatment of widows is again a hot topic. Islam empowers women and holds them in the highest regard. There should be no discrimination against widows yet in some of our dramas we see widows treated like servants! Same goes for divorcees. This is utterly shameful.

ztb

Magic- or Kaala Jadu! How many times do we see this come up in our dramas? People going to esteemed peers for amals. This just goes to show how weak our Imaan is that we would go off running for solutions through any means. Shirk- any association with Allah is the greatest sin. But sadly, this is becoming very commonplace.

kj

Are we really that blind that we have taken on customs that are deeply-rooted in the religious beliefs of those other than Islam? What are some of the things you’ve noticed in our dramas that is completely out of context? P.S The purpose of this article is not to stir a religious debate, rather to highlight how our dramas have taken on other customs as norms.

What’s Currently Super Exciting to watch!

Okay so I thought that I should carry on with my trend to keep you guys updated in each Quarter as what is currently good to watch. In previous October-December 2014 quarter there were indeed many good dramas that went on air where some ended disappointedly like Firaaq and some in a perfect manner without being dragged like Shanakht.
It’s good to see that each succeeding quarter is better than preceding quarter and I am glad that even in this quarter we are encountering ourselves with the quality entertainment.

So what’s currently good to watch in this quarter?

Aik Pal: My drama week begin from HUM-TV mega project Aik Pal. Have you ever wondered why Dusri Biwi was promoted heavily by ARY DIGITAL despite having a monotonous storyline? The simple answer is just to compete Aik Pal. ARY exactly knew that it was hard to compete Aik Pal a drama whose facebook page received 0.2 million likes before even it goes on air. ARY wants TRP and they are finding it hard to compete Aik Pal on Monday. I am disappointed with Aik Pal team as they have revealed their whole story in OST video. Hence the story is interesting and I am happy with the pace but I am not curious anymore as what will happen next. This drama is ON-AIR on HUM-TV every Monday at 8.00 pm.

Aik-Pal-Drama-640x360

Zid: A new drama serial on HUM-TV which had replaced Shanakht. 5 episodes have been completed and I am enjoying it so far. I am glad that this topic is highlighted for the first time where we stand for our rights but others consider it as Zid because our way to ask for the rights is quite straight forward “Baat sahi thi tareeqa ghalat tha”. Production Quality is really good and I hope so will be the storyline. So those who are not watching it is recommended to watch this drama every Tuesday at 8.00 pm on HUM-TV.

ZID

Chup Raho: Rameen ke liye Arz kya hai “Aik sitam aur meri Jaan abhi jaan baqi hai” Does anyone know when this drama will end and up till when we have to face illogical twists in this drama. I had seriously no idea where this drama is heading and to be honest it is being dragged unnecessarily. Only Yasir Nawaz direction is keeping me hooked up and I am rooting for Numair to confess for his heinous crime otherwise I should have left watching it but still as I watch it on internet so there is a facility to keep forwarding unnecessary scenes ;-). I wonder what ARY will offer on Tuesdays when this drama will end in order to compete successfully with Zid. This drama is ON-AIR on ARY Digital every Tuesday at 8.00 pm.

chup-raho

Still nothing much exciting on Wednesdays still. Tum Mere hi Rehne failed to make an impact. I hope some channel will bring quality entertainment on Wednesday prime slot.

Main Bushra: “Mene qismat se buhat jangein lari hain aur kehte hain jise qismat baddua de de usse Ishq hojata hai aur jise ishq hojai usse kisi ki baddua nahi lagti”. So Moving on to Thursdays now I don’t know but there is something in “Main Bushra” drama that keeps you engaged either dialogues or pace. So far 20 episodes have been completed and anyone who wants to catch up with this drama again can watch it every Thursday at 8.00 pm on ARY Digital.

main bushra

Sadqey Tumharay: Well I left watching this drama as it is not my cup of tea. Anyways no need to recommend as I am pretty sure most of the audience is still watching it every Friday at 8.00pm on HUM-TV.

jb-tk-umeed-rehti-hai-mulaqaat-jesi-khushi-rehti-hai-Sadqay-tumhare

Jackson Heights: This 24 Instalments drama might have dragged in between but now it has entered in exciting phase. The way Bhatti finally expressed his feelings for Salma reminds me of Sajjad Ali song “Chahe jis Mulk bhi jai, chahe jis shehar bhi jai mein hi Mahiwal hun tera sonhi meri gal sunja”. I am curious to know whether Sikandar will actually shoot Bhatti in next Installment or not. To stay tuned keep watching this drama every Friday at 9.00 pm on Urdu 1.

Jackson Heights

Digest Writer: I guess there is no need to recommend this drama as most of you are already watching it. However I do want to say one thing that for past few episodes this drama is losing charm which was there at start, this drama now seems to be like a typical saas bahu stuff. I do hope that Fareeda’s professional phase will be soon put on front. This drama is ON-AIR every Saturday at 8.00pm on HUM-TV.

Digest-Writer-28-December-2014-Episode-14

Goya: Will I consider it currently the best drama on screen? This is something new and super exciting on-screen considering the fact how our dramas remain incomplete without prolong unnecessary wedding functions but you will not find as such thing in this drama. Another reason to love this drama is the cast, it’s good to watch young and old talent performing impeccably in this play specially I want to mention the short role of Adnan played by Gauhar Rasheed. Those who are still not watching this play, it is highly recommended to tune on to this play every Saturday at 9.00pm on ARY Digital. Previously this play is on-air on prime slot at 8.00pm but I don’t understand the strategy of changing the time. Is it just because to avoid competition with Digest Writer and to increase TRP?

Goya

There is nothing good on-screen on Sundays but yet another substandard drama “Nikah” revolving around two wives and all those wedding craps. However if you want to watch something hilarious then you can watch HUM-TV new sitcom Mr.Shamim every Sunday at 7.30pm.

So what are you watching nowadays?

What’s On! April 2014

We’re into the fourth month of the year already! It’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with the world of television so as much as possible, I try restricting myself to the Big Three- HUM TV, ARY and GEO. Here are some of the dramas I’ve caught up with:

Malika e Aliya– I rarely tune into GEO because I find their dramas painful to sit through, and the channel continues to prove me right! Malika e Aliya airs on Tuesday and is the story of a widower (Sohail Asghar) with three sons- Furqaan, Noman and Salman. They are well to do but reliant on their house-help- a cunning woman who doubles as a rishtey-wali. Aliya (Maria Wasti) belongs to a lower middle class family but she lives in the world of Turkish dramas and dreams of being a princess. She rejects every proposal that her rishtey wali brings on the basis that she wants more for herself- a rich family where she doesn’t have to deal with a saas or nandein. No prize for guessing, she will eventually find her way into the all male household!

mea

 

Maang– A story of two sisters, Maang airs on Tuesdays on ARY. Hira (Neelum Munir) and Saba (Beenish Chauhan) are the daughters of a Molvi– Firdous Jamaal yet again! Saba is extremely domestic and compassionate and Hira is the exact opposite. Hira likes Asad (Danish Taimoor) and he tries to convince his mother to ask for Hira’s hand in marriage. However, his mother is shrewd and wants a bahu who will be at her beck and call. She goes unannounced to check out Hira but is overly impressed by her elder sister Saba and commands her son to marry Saba instead. Asad complies but on his wedding night, he informs Saba that he loves someone else. Although Hira was initially devastated, she warns Asad to stay away from her and give Saba her rights as his wife.

maang

 

Koi Nahin Apna– Airing on ARY on Wednesdays, the story is about Alvira (Sarwat Gillani) who was born in a rich household but who falls in love with Hamza (Fahad Mustafa) a guy hailing from a middle class background. Alvira’s parents have high hopes of her marrying their friend’s son, Zaka and Hamza’s mother is keen on making her bhanji her future bahu. Both Alvira and Hamza retaliate and ultimately find their way together. What remains to be seen is will their marriage be a success despite all odds or will they fall apart and find comfort elsewhere.

koinaiapna

 

Izteraab– A fast paced serial airing on Wednesdays on HUM TV, Izteraab is the story of a man, Jazib (Mikaal Zulfiqar) who’s unhappily married to a headstrong career woman, Zara (Saba Qamar) and has two children. Jazib feels perpetually frustrated since his wife falls short of his standards of a homemaker. Enter Dua (Sania Shamshad), his much younger, homely cousin who woos him with her gharelo saleekha and well, as is now becoming very common in the world of dramas, he marries her. The story is inspired from Step mom- Zara is diagnosed with cancer and Jazib feels obligated towards her. Personally even though I like Saba Qamar, she’s appearing in too many serials right now and it would be nice to have a fresh face. Mikaal is forever playing the role of the bored, miserable husband who finds it difficult to stay committed. And Sania is again playing the role of a home-wrecker!

iz

 

Bhabi– Airing on ARY every Friday, Bhabi is the story of Saba (Sohai Ali Abro) who is married to Naeem and has a son. She lives in a joint family with her saas, her elder devar, Hashim (Aijaz Aslam) and his wife (Farah Shah) and her younger devar, Saarim (Shehzad sheikh). Hashim is a male chauvinist who treats his wife like his personal slave and in general hates Saba’s guts. He has two daughters who he considers a burden and is expecting a third child- he has threatened his wife that if this time around, she cannot bear him a son, he will divorce her! Naeem is the opposite of his brother and respects his wife and treats her like an equal. Unfortunately, Naeem passes away and Saba is left at the mercy of her in-laws. We’ll get to see plenty of crying from Sohai which has now become typical of her appearances.

What’s on this season

Spring is here- almost! And with that we also have a line-up of new dramas to look forward to. Some new faces, some old. Some interesting stories, some run-of-the-mill. There’s something that caters to every taste. Here’s a run-down of what’s making its way on our tv screens:

Uff Yeh Mohabbat– As much as I love the soundtrack, this romcom is just awful! You can’t help draw comparisons to Mohabbatein – Gohar Mumtaz plays the role of a music teacher and Meher Bano is his student. I don’t know why our drama’s have this perception that just because something falls in the genre of a romantic comedy it cannot have any hint of reality or logic. And UYM is no exception. Written by Faiza Iftekhar and directed by Amin Iqbal, this one is produced by A & B Entertainment (yes, the same production house that dishes out tragedy after tragedy). So far four episodes have aired on GEO TV so if you’re curious to find out what happens next, get watching!

uym

 

Kahani Raima Aur Manahil Ki– Directed by Fahim Burney, written by Faiza Iftekhar and produced by Mushroom Production, KRAMK is a light-hearted story of how Wamaj (Wasay Choudhary) and Raima (Mehreen Raheel)who are miserable in their marriage try to find a way out with the help of Abrar (Shehroze Sabzwari) and Manahil (Sajjal Ali). It airs every Tuesday on HUM TV.

kramk

 

Rukhsati– Don’t be fooled by the title of this drama, Rukhsati aired on GEO TV this week and is far from the happy, khushiyon bharaa shadi fiasco. The story begins with a family of four daughters and one son and their parents- Mahmood Akhtar and his wife, Tahira Imam. Upon his wife’s insistence, he agrees to consider becoming a sleeping partner in a business owned by her distant relative (Abid Ali). So far the daughters are all unmarried and the son wants to go to the US of A for further studies. The promos hint at things going topsy-turvy in traditional A & B style and after the death of their father, the eldest daughter, Maliha (Sunita Marshall) ends up marrying Abid Ali! What ensues will be the typical zulm ki inteha with our leading lady putting up with all sorts of painful circumstances since women were born to sacrifice themselves! Written by Amna Mufti, directed by Mohsin Mirza and produced by *drumroll* A & B Entertainment, other cast members include Gul-e-Rana, Seema Sehar, Faizan Khawaja, Anum Fayyaz, Bilal Qureshi, Sana Askari.

                                                                                       ruk

 

Bashar Momin– The much talked about drama aired on GEO TV today replacing Aasmanon Pe Likha. Touted as the most expensive production till date (we have A& B Entertainment to thank for that), written by Zanjbeel Asim and directed by Syed Ali Osama, BM stars Faisal Qureshi playing the role of a money-launderer/ underworld don. Somehow, FQ seems very Maula Juttesque to me with his high pitched tone that almost damaged my hearing. So far, there’s nothing that we’ve not seen before in terms of fancy cars, homes, etc. Some of the previews showed Bollywood style singing and dancing so maybe it will have a filmy feel to it thus the massive budget. It’s too early to determine the fate of this drama but the rest of the cast isn’t very impressive- Sami Khan (Bulund- Rudaba’s fiance), Ushna Shah (as Rudaba), Maheen Rizwi (as Saira- BM’s sister), Sundus Tariq (as Tayyaba- BM’s youngest sister). I don’t know what it is about GEO but the production values always leave much to be desired.

With more dramas ending soon, we will have more new ones replacing them. Have you been watching any of these dramas? What are your thoughts?

Yours in watching,

What’s next for Yumna Zaidi?

Yumna Zaidi is pretty and talented but it is not very often that we see her playing different characters in dramas. Just like most of the other actresses Yumna Zaidi is also seen playing the role of a girl who is helpless and caught in difficult situations. Her roles in HUM TV plays Jugnoo and Mausam were a good break from the usual characters she plays in dramas.

Yumna Zaidi’s family lives abroad so she is making a big sacrifice of staying away from her family so that she can work in the drama world. Yumna Zaidi will be next seen in ARY Digital’s play “Guzarish”. The promos of the play are being shown in which Yumna’s character is shown getting married to someone she does not love. Ahmed Ali and Affan Waheed are also part of this drama. Posting an update about her character Yumna said,

“Meet Zara. Very stylish, modern and sleek. I love her.”

Yumna Zaidi also keeps on posting pictures from the sets of the drama she is working on from time to time.

“Zara Yaad Kar” is another drama which Yumna Zaidi is finding more challenging than any other. She will be seen playing a lead role opposite Zahid Ahmed who she worked with before in Jugnoo too. But Yumna Zaidi promises that their characters in this play will be very different.

Yumna thinks that Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s script is tough but she is working hard to play her character which is named Uzma. According to Yumna Zaidi Uzma is,

“pure soul, fearless, honest and pure. I love her too khoobsurat hai dil se.”

Here are some pictures from the set of “Zara Yaad Kar” in which Yumna is seen wearing very little make up.
