Saba Qamar is a superstar who has worked in many hit dramas and films in her career. She is known as the best female acting talent to have graced the screens in the past two decades. She has the ability to get under the skin of any character and she does it beautifully every time. The starlet is going through a legal battle right now against rumors about her character.
Artists usually face scandals throughout their careers. Female artists specifically get targeted many times unfortunately. A similar case happened when journalist Naeem Hanif alleged some information about Saba Qamar’s past. He said that he has known Saba since the early 2000s when she lived in a house provided by an “admirer”. Saba Qamar did not back down and sent legal notice to Naeem Hanif and declared that she will not back down and take such allegations.
Naeem Hanif has now responded after receiving the legal notice in another podcast. He said that criticism is the beauty of the media and digital media. He takes it with open arms but he has been in the field for a long time. He knows when criticism is organic or paid and he has seen many such “criticisms” and he will handle it. He also added that this is not a controversy for him, he just said his side.
This is what he said:
Naeem Hanif also spoke abou his jornalistic career. He said that he has been trained by the pioneers of the media and he knows how censorship works. He is never scared of any bans or notices and he knows how to fight back and be resolute in his position. He is always standing on his stances and he has kept his journalism clean and credible:

Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan is a renowned Pakistani psychologist, motivational speaker and social media celebrity known for her blunt views and viral interviews. She recently made headlines after her Nikah with colleague Haris Khokhar which was held at Maulana Tariq Jamil’s residence. Soon after Nikah, she started giving back to back interviews to electronic and digital media platforms.
Recently, Dr Nabiha Ali Khan appeared in Neo News’ morning show hosted by Hina Salman. In the show, she responded to criticism on her Nikah in detail.
Talking about haters’ unnecessary criticism, Dr Nabiha Ali Khan said, “I don’t feel it’s necessary to respond to such pointless people, and I feel it would be an insult to my words if I would reply to them. Whether we make videos or not, it’s none of your business. It has become Pakistani people’s job to criticize others. We had a wedding, why are you concerned where it held, what we wore, what was the price of the outfits—these are all envious and hypocritical people who have nothing else to do in life . A jealous person has no standards; they always speak from a lower place. First of all, I am a motivational speaker, a psychologist. I am not a religious scholar. I follow the teachings of Allah but I am not perfect but that doesn’t mean I can’t be happy or do celebrations”.
Talking about criticism on Nikah video, her husband said, “my paternal grandparents (dada and dadi) and maternal grandfather (nana) have passed away and I only have maternal grandmother (Nani) with me, who recently had an operation due to which she could not attend my Nikah. She repeatedly asked me to show Nikah ceremony because Maulana Tariq Jamil was solemnizing it and he was also her favorite, also, she had a great desire to witness the event. We come from a traditional family who highly respect our elders, and fulfilling her wish was important for me but unfortunately people started trolling me on this.”
Talking about the criticism of marrying someone like a brother, Dr Nabiha Ali Khan said, “There is a video circulating on social media where someone is saying that she married her brother, how can even this marriage happened? Lete tell you, He was never my brother You shouldn’t make such statements about others. He is neither my cousin nor any of my relative, yet you are calling him my brother.” Her husband also said that she is Khan and he is Khokhar. So, their families are different from ours. Dr Nabiha Ali Khan further added that before Nikah, everyone is considered as a brother, and I never have wrong thoughts about anyone. Talking about criticism on marrying brother Dr Nabiha said that she never ever called him brother and people are just doing unnecessary criticism. Another thing is, the negative people you see are all from our own community whom we are not . They also added that YouTubers and content creators are criticizing them and earning money and they will soon take legal action against them.”

Fans love her memorable portrayals in hit dramas like Azar Ki Ayegi Baraat, Mere Dard Ko Jo Zuban Miley, Meri Zaat Zarra e Benishan, Zakhm, Mata e Jaan Hai Tu, Mann Piyasa, Seeta Baagri, and Khasara. She is currently getting praise for her acting in Biryani.
Recently, Sarwat Gilani appeared on Madeha Naqvi’s morning show Subh Ka Samaa on Samaa TV. In the show, she talked about creating the character look of Gul Meher and also shared her thoughts on stepping away from morning shows.
Talking about creating Gul Meher, she said, “I was called by Badar Mehmood. He said, ‘I’m calling you after 11 years, which shows how much I want you in this character.’ He narrated Gul Meher to me, after which I called my mother and told her to go to Hala. The next day, we were there. I collected Ajraks — most of the outfits were my own because I love wearing loose kurtas, etc. A lot of my kurtas are from Fashion Diva. Fans are loving Gul Meher’s outfits; there are great memes about her clothing, like people don’t want Meeran but Gul Meher’s outfits. All the jewelry was my own, which I got polished for the character. I wanted to manufacture Gul Meher as the kind of girls we see.”
Talking about quitting the morning show Rise and Shine, she said, “I loved doing the morning show. I love such opportunities where I get to talk about issues. I had a wonderful time because I could question relevant people — although I was limited, it was still fun. I enjoyed discussing issues. I left it because my term was for six months only, and my daughter was just six months old. Then I had to start the mother-toddler program with her, which meant the mother had to be with the toddler, and their timings were early morning. Mothers make all sacrifices for their kids; children should know about their sacrifices.”
Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan is a famous Pakistani psychologist, public speaker, and media personality known for her controversial opinions regarding women. She gained popularity due to her controversial podcasts on multiple social issues. Dr. Nabiha is particularly known for her derogatory remarks against women. She has always supported men and was once a strong advocate of multiple marriages of men.
Two days ago, Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan’s nikah was held at Maulana Tariq Jamil’s residence. Soon after the ceremony, her statements — both those made before the nikah and those made afterwards — about men’s second marriages began circulating widely on social media.
In a statement before the nikah, Dr. Nabiha said that marriages are decreed by Allah and also it’s allowed in Islam to have four marriages and men should marry four times. In a recent statement after her Nikah, she took an instant Uturn and warned other women, saying, “I know how to take fierce revenge on any woman who tries to target my husband — I know how to gouge out those eyes I have already made him understand that if any woman will come between us, then it will be her fate to quit not me.” Here is the link to the video:
Social media users are trolling Dr Nabiha for instantly changing her statement soon after marrying a relatively younger guy. A girl commented, “Baji, keep your husband to yourself. We know you got him after many struggles.” Another wrote, “All these motivational speakers are hypocrites; they only make such statements on camera.” One user remarked, “Don’t take them seriously, they’re just TikTokers.” Another taunted, “Your husband’s condition seems to be deteriorating after your statement.” One social media user added, “This is what’s called the two-nation theory.” Read the comments:

Mehwish Hayat was speaking about the length of her career. She said that people do think she has been working for two decades but she has only been active in the industry for the past 14-15 years. It was just her performances that were registered from the very beginning and people noticed her. She is therefore thought to be woking in dramas for 20 years when it has not been that long.
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is a psychologist who rose to fame when she started appearing on morning shows and podcasts. Her pro-men stance made her a viral sensation and her statements regarding how men are to be loved and respected became the talk of the town. She was a widow and she has now taken another step in her personal life as she has tied the knot for a second time.
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan has tied the knot to her long time friend Haris Khokhar. She recently shared that she will soon be marrying a man who is so handsome that he looks Turkish and she has known him for some time now. They have been frends since 6 years and now they are life partners after they got Nikkahfied at Maulana Tariq Jamil’s residence.
Who Is Haris Khokhar?

He is also the CEO of National Point and CEO of Voice of Punjab. Haris Khokhar is also a part of the Young Media Association. Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is also a part of YMA and that is how they initially met.
Their meetup story:
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan used to raise her voice for different causes and Haris Khokhar has also been a part of such activism.

Mrs Khan is a famous matchmaker. She is often seen on morning shows where she is talking about what men and women of today demand in marriages. She wants women to be slim, young and submissive in nature as those qualities can only let them have successful marriages. She has now come up with another statement and people are furious.
Domesic violence is rampant in Pakistan. We see cases of women being beaten up and even killed by their husbands and in-laws. In such a dire state of affairs, Mrs Khan is supporting wife beaters and she has once again found a way to blame the victims. Her outrageous statement is going viral on social media.
Mrs Khan said that any woman who talks back will get slapped by her husband. Thus replying and talking back is the problem as Zubandaraz aurat will eventually get slapped by her man.
The internet is furious on this statement as she is supporting domestic violence when she is a woman herself. One user wrote, “It is women like these who enable domestic violence.” Another added, “The way you speak, you must get slapped everyday.” One said, “In today’s world, the ones who remain silent get beaten up more.” This is the reaction:
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is a famous media personality. She is a psychologist and an activist and she is often seen passing statements regarding men’s rights and what women need to change about themselves. She has just entered a new phase in her life as she tied the knot with her friend Haris Khokhar. The couple’s Nikkah was held at Maulana Tariq Jamil’s residence and people have a lot to say about how Nabiha and Haris conducted themselves at Maulana’s home.
Maulana Tariq Jamil also came under criticism after Dr Nabiha Ali Khan invited all the social media influencers to her wedding and all sorts of videos were circulating. People were questioning why Maulana sat with Nabiha while he was solemnising her Nikkah. Then there were questions about how Nabiha and Haris celebrated the nuptials at Maulana’s home. Mualna Tariq Jamil’s son Maulana Yousaf Jamil has now commented on this.
Maulna Yousaf Jamil said that his father has solemnised thousands of Nikkahs. He added that his father is not a young man of 30 years. He is old now and the brides are like his daughters and that is how he treats them, so sitting beside her is not bad. It should have been avoided but he is an old man now. He shared that he, himself, did not even know Dr Nabiha Ali Khan and he had just seen her after this Nikkah. He added that his father is a soft-hearted person and never stops anyone. Dr Nabiha Ali Khan wanted to celebrate her Nikkah but she should have seen how it was Maulana’s home and she should have avoided all sorts of singing and videos that were being constantly filmed and posted online.
The internet thinks that all of this should have been avoided. One user wrote, “Na mehram is na mehram at all ages. They should not have sat together.” Another added, “Maulana has an aura and it should have been preserved first.” One said, “Do not justify this.” Here is the reaction:
Many others are agreeing with Maulana Yousaf Jamil. One person said, “All these critics do not even observe proper pardah themselves.” Another added, “We lone Maulana Tariq Jamil. He has shown light to many.” One said, “Maulana sahab is our asset.” Here is how they supported Maulana Tariq Jamil:
Dr Arfa Sayeda Zehra was a big name among the intellectual community of Pakistan. She was an educationist, activist and a voice of reason and culture. She graduated from Lahore College For Women University and Government College University Lahore and then went to Hawai USA for her PhD. She came back and served in the education sector of Pakistan. The educationist served as Principal at Government College for Women, Gulberg and later served at FC University Lahore.
Dr Arfa Syeda Zehra was a name of credibility in education. She always raised her voice for the need of educational reforms, democratic values and women’s rights. She represented Pakistan globally and her words had strength and weight whenever she gave a statement. She always supported promoting Pakistani culture and uplifting the women of the nation.
Dr Arfa Syeda Zehra also served as Special Advisor to Prime Minister on Education and National Cohesion. She also co-chaired the National Committee on the Status of Women. She passed away today leaving behind a big void for Pakistan and a strong voice for women left this world.
Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Illahi Rajioon! May she rest in peace and her family finds solace after her loss!
Humayun saeed is a superstar of Pakistan. He is also a mega producer and one of the few stars who can attract the audience to cinemas. The star has just given two hits, Love Guru and Main Manto Nahi Hoon. Writer Khalil ur Rehman Qamar has now spoken about the star’s acting potential. He was on a podcast when he shared his opinion on how talented Humayun is.
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar said that the work Humayun Saeed has done in Mere Paas Tum Ho is far superior than all the Khans’ of Bollywood. He did better than the Khans and they could not have given such a perfomance.
This is what he said:
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar went on to praise Adnan Siddiqui as well. He said that he actually was not a big fan of his acting but he wanted someone who looked like a billionaire for Mere Paas Tum Ho. Only Adnan Siddiqui posseses that style. The minute he entered the screen in that drama, people knew he was a rich and powerful man.
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar is a seasoned Pakistani writer who has penned numerous remarkable scripts, including Landa Bazaar, Main Mar Gayi Shaukat Ali, Boota from Toba Tek Singh, Bunty I Love You, Sadqay Tumhare, Mere Paas Tum Ho, and Pyare Afzal. Recently, his drama serial Main Manto Nahi Hoon received widespread public praise, impressive TRPs, and high viewership. The writer also faced criticism for showing a love story between professor and student.
Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar recently appeared in Mansoor Ali Khan’s podcast, where he revealed the real-life inspiration behind the character of Surriya.
Talking about it, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar said, “I was expecting that this character would become a hit because I knew Saima — as an artist, she was made for this role. I always take inspiration from real life. Behind Surriya was a woman I knew whose two children were killed. She endured this immense pain with patience until Allah took revenge Himself. Allah says, ‘When you don’t take revenge, I do it for you.’ That was the message I wanted to convey through the drama.” Here is the link to the video:
While praising actress Saima, Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar added, “Fifty percent of our job is done when an actor appears on screen and completely owns the role. Saima did exactly that — she came, she saw, and she conquered. That’s exactly what we wanted from her, and she delivered perfectly.” Here is the link to the video:

Talking about her first marriage and divorce, Dania said, “I don’t want to change a single thing in my life. If anyone asks me what I would change if I got a chance to live my life again, I’d say nothing. My kids are the most beautiful gift from my first marriage. Life itself is a beautiful gift — we must learn from its ups and downs. I truly believe in the bumps and dumps of life; I take them as lessons.”
Talking about the second marriage, Dania shared, “After the divorce, I knew that I wasn’t going to get married again because I had a very clear image in my mind of the kind of person I wanted. I thought it would be nearly impossible to find a perfect person. The idea was very clear, but when I met Farhan, all the checkboxes just clicked. I wanted someone who understand that I am a mother first, who takes care of my children — both my daughter and I was also concerned that my son should not feel jealous of him. This communication with my children was also important for me. All those questions were answered, and that’s why I decided to marry him.”
Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan is currently making headlines across all media platforms following her viral Nikah ceremony held at Maulana Tariq Jamil’s residence. She has also been giving multiple interviews to various news channels.
In her recent podcast appearance with her husband on Naeem Saqib’s show, Dr. Nabiha opened up about an interesting moment from the event regarding Maulana Tariq Jamil who got angry just before their Nikah.
Responding to a question about whether anything memorable or unforgettable happened at their Nikah, Dr. Nabiha said, “I arranged the beautiful wedding decorations at Maulana Sahab’s house, where the Nikah ceremony took place. I wanted everything to look beautiful so I prepared a decorative Nikah curtain made of flowers, inspired by trending Nikah setups. I was excited about that floral curtains which meant to separate the groom’s and bride’s seating areas. However, as soon as the guests and media arrived, things became chaotic. So many people came into the drawing room and it became overcrowded. Around a hundred people gathered in a space that could only accommodate about forty comfortably. Maulana Sahab looked around and said, ‘Take this out!’ referring to the floral curtain.” Dr. Nabiha admitted that her expression at that moment was worth seeing, as she had put her heart into decorating the space.” The couple thanked Maulana Tariq Jamil for solemnizing their Nikah which was the biggest gift.

Once, I had so many bed bugs at home that I got tired of dealing with them. I even had fumigation done, but they came back again. There’s an interesting incident related to this — I once went to my sister’s house at the army mess, and her maid told me a tip: ‘Catch two or three bed bugs in a tissue paper, take them to a meat shop, leave them there, and say, “Don’t come back, this is your home now.”’ I actually did it! I left them at the meat shop and said, ‘Don’t come back to my house, this is your new home now.’ But the shopkeeper got worried and asked, ‘Baji, are you a magician or something? Why are you doing this to me?’ Even this didn’t help and they came back”

While narrating the incident, Furqan Qureshi said, “There was a red carpet of an award show where I was invited. It was after the success of my drama serial Dreamers. Even though the drama was a hit, I was again struggling to find work. I decided to attend the red carpet event, but I didn’t know much about what the red carpet was, I looked around, there were a few actors including Osman Khalid Butt with whom I worked in a drama, so I asked him where the red carpet was. He said, ‘Come let me show you, and he took me around. He was famous, and everyone was taking his pictures. I had just two pictures taken and then left because that little moment was embarrassment for me.”
Hassan Ahmed plays Hameed in Jama Taqseem. The drama is breaking records and it has turned out to be a sleeper hit with the audience. The show is talking about the problems of a joint family system in a very realistic manner. Hassan plays the older brother who is dealing with a very toxic wife, a colourful past and a son who is not under his control. The actor has given his best and he shared his thoughts on the drama in an interview with Something Haute.
Hassan Ahmed shared that he was initially offered Majeed. He read the script and he liked Hameed more for his screen time and nuances. He asked the makers if he could do Hameed and he chose to play that character in the end. Later makers also said that yes he will be playing Hameed as he can do the character justice.
This is what he revealed:
Hassan Ahmed also spoke who Hameed is as a person. He shared that Hameed is the reflection of your everyday man. He is negative as he wants to take over the business and he is selfish about his aims in life. But he is also positive as he silently supported his niece and he always worries about his parents. He is just an everyday man who gets influenced by everyone around him and starts behaving in that manner.
Here is what he said:
Hassan also shared that he feels that such big joint families cannot work as there are too many clashes. Jama Taqseem is just trying to show society both pros and cons of a joint family system. Every kind of character is represented in the show and we can all learn from it. He personally lives in a joint family with him and his parents and they have always worked and put in effort to keep it positive.
Listen to what he shared:
For Hameed, Hassan Ahmed has advice. The actor feels that he should have kept a bit of control on what his wife says to everyone. He also needed to strengthen his relationship with his mother and be actively involved with his father’s decisions. These are some things that he should have done.
In hindsight, Main Manto Nahi Hoon was all about Suraiyya Phupho and farhad Binyamin. The duo remained consistent throughout and the arcs ended with logic. Azaan Sami Khan played Farhad Binyamin and the star was loved for his strong portrayal of the problematic character. Azaan was a guest on Buzz on ARY Digital and shared some behind the scenes facts about the drama’s shoot and his character.
Azaan Sami Khan shared that his scene where Farhad comes to shoot Manto was the very first scene he shot. It was shot in Bahria Town and he had to face Humayun Saeed and Sanam Saeed in his very first scene. This created pressure in his head and he performed the iconic Haye Allah scene.
Here is the scene that Azaan Sami Khan shot first for Main Manto Nahi Hoon and almost fainted:
Azaan Sami Khan revealed that he almost fainted while he was shooting the scene. He was facing two very big stars who are known for their acting prowess and he had to do all the antics of Farhad. He even asked the director Nadeem Baig for water. But his director was chilled out and helped him through the scene.
Amna Malik is an actress, model and host who has been a part of the entertainment industry for some time now. The starlet has been giving some huge performances recently. She just appeared in Sher and she was the fierce sister of Sher, Marjan, who was his support throughout. The starlet is appearing as Rashda in Jama Taqseem and her track is a fan favourite.
Amna Malik is portraying Rashda in Jama Taqseem. She is the mother of two daughters and she has always lived a very oppressed life. She is not able to completely embrace freedom as she has never seen it in this way. A woman who was always put down is now on a journey to discover her strength and identity. Amna Malik is completely opposite to Rashda and she shared her point of view in the joint family vs nuclear family debate on Hasna Mana Hai.
Amna Malik said that living in a joint family is not wrong. But when siblings start to have kids and the family grows, you need more space. Living together becomes difficult. It is not just sisters-in-law who fight but siblings themselves start having arguments. Thus maintaining a certain distance is important and love remains intact that way.
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is a social media personality and an activist for men’s rights. She is always trending for her controversial statements but this time her personal life is in the news. She has just tied the knot with her long time friend Haris Khokhar. Nikkah was solemnised by Maulana Tariq Jamil at his residence and the couple has started a new chapter in their lives.

During the Nikkah while Maulana Tariq Jamil was performing the most important part of the ceremony, he was seen filming the event and taking pictures. Fans thought this was unnecessary and distasteful. He could have asked someone else to do it for him.
This is what happened:
The internet was calling out Harish Khokhar fo making videos during his own Nikkah. One user wrote, “She used to talk so much and he is the one she chose.” Another added, “Maulana is performing Dua and he is busy taking selfies.” One said, “If jahalat had a face, this would be it.” This was the reaction:
Dr Nabiha Ali Khan is a psychologist, media personality and activist. She has been very popular among the masses especially male viewers as she is always talking about how innocent men are and she has always stood up for men’s rights.

Now, Dr Nabiha Ali Khan has admitted that she was lying about her outfit and jewelry prices but it was mainly a slip of tongue. She was replying to Mishi Khan and said that she called lakhs, crores, as she was nervous and it was a slip of tongue. She added that anything she wears becomes worth crores and she only thinks in crores. People need to stop obessessing over her.

She had me in her twenties, which is quite young to have a child. It’s not that she wasn’t working, but for me, she played the roles of both mom and dad. I never felt my father’s absence and had no complaints about her in that sense. Of course, as a child, you sometimes get irritated with your parents, but as I grew up, I never felt that way.”
Talking about moving out of the house, she said, “I had that conversation when I was 22. I moved out and decided that I would earn and become independent. It was quite a debate with my mom, but after moving out, our relationship improved. She trusted me, and would come over, she would bring food, and we used to have a good time. Later, I moved back in with her when she asked me to get settled in life.”
Talking about her father, she said, “I admit he is a great actor, but I don’t know which side of him to relate to. Honestly, I don’t follow my parents’ work; it’s their job. When I was younger, I could relate to him because I have seen him multitasking— he is an actor, director, producer and writer. Now, I want to try everything, but I don’t necessarily look up to him in that way.”
She further added, “What I learned from my father is to keep working on my craft and continually improve myself in whatever I do.”
MasterChef is a famous competitive cooking reality television show conceived by Franc Roddam in Britain in July 1990. The format was revived in 2005 and has since been considered the most popular culinary show worldwide, produced in more than 50 countries. In 2014, the Pakistani version of MasterChef aired on TV and was won by Ammara Noman. However, the channels did not continue airing the culinary show afterward.
Now, MasterChef Pakistan is back on Hum TV with the season 2 after 11 years. The channel has started airing the show. The show is being judged by Chef Sadat Siddiqui, Chef Mahwish Aziz, and Chef Asad Monga and the contestants from all over Pakistan will take part in the competition.
Here is Cher Sadat Siddiqui’s clip which is facing severe public backlash:
Here is how Chef Asad Monga reacted to the contestant’s dish:
Also watch Chef Mahwish Aziz, who is being the rudest judge on MasterChef Pakistan:
Viewers are very quite upset with the the judges attitude especially the lady judge Mahwish who has been extremely rude to almost all the participants with many saying that all three judges need to watch international MasterChef shows to learn basic manners. One social media user pointed out Chef Sadat’s extremely arrogant behaviour with contestant who introduced her family’s signature dish to him. A fan wrote , ‘The judges are having their own competition that who will pick the mistake first’, Another wrote, ‘all three of them still need to learn how to judge a competition’ .

The young actor Ahmed Rafique, who plays the role of Fabiha’s husband Almir, is facing severe public backlash for his wooden expressions and poor acting skills. In a scene where Fabiha announces her pregnancy, the actor appeared visibly uncomfortable and failed to deliver a convincing performance. Watch the scene here:
Social media users are trolling Ahmed Rafique’s acting skills, who previously delivered a brilliant performance in ARY Digital’s Naqab. One user wrote, “He seems unhappy, as if the child doesn’t belong to him.” Another commented, “His acting isn’t good — who advised him to become an actor?” Someone else said he has done extremely poor acting and couldn’t even give appropriate expressions as per the situation. Many also mocked the multiple pregnancy sequences in Meri Bahuein, with one user saying, “This drama should be named Our Pregnancies instead of Meri Bahuein.” Read the comments:
Ahmed Randhawa is a host and TV actor who recently made headlines after doing podcast with Saba Qamar which stirred multiple debates. Besides hosting, Ahmed Randhawa is known for dramas like Iqtidar, Bichoo and Agar. Currently, fans are liking his acting in ARY Digital’s soap serial Chaalbaaz and Geo TV’s Case No. 9. He has also done multiple modelling ventures and commercials.
A few days ago, Ahmed Randhawa appeared on Good Morning Pakistan for the promotion of his drama serial Chaalbaaz. During the show, he opened up about his ideal life partner’s qualities.
To the question, “What qualities do you think your life partner should have?” Ahmed Randhawa said, “I think the most important thing is mental compatibility. Your minds should match with each other, that you’re able to hold a conversation with each other. Also, our profession is different; an actor’s life has both highs and lows. So, my life partner should be supportive — someone who realizes that difficult times may come in life, she should have a trust in my capabilities and has faith in me that I will make something out of myself. She should be someone who stands by me in difficult times. It is understandable that girls also need security and comfort. Of course, if it’s written in fate, I will provide, Insha’Allah. But if there are ups and downs in life, then that support becomes very important — like they say, ‘Behind every successful man, there’s a woman’s hand.’ So that support system is very necessary. And values, religion, mindset, politics — all these things, I believe, come under mental compatibility too. I think values don’t necessarily have to be 100% the same”
To the question, “And how much does physical appearance matter to you?” he replied, “Looks do matter to me but I believe beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. She should look beautiful to me, I should find my partner good looking. I think there should be attraction — and everyone’s definition of beauty is different anyway”

The actor is reportedly all set to make her film debut after four successful television projects.
Recently, an old video of Dananeer Mobeen is making rounds on social media from her childhood days when she talked to a PTV anchor. In the video, Dananeer confidently faced the camera and said, I watch all your shows fondly and I haven’t missed a single episode of your show, can I be the part of your show?” Here is the link to the video:
Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan is a clinical psychologist, former news anchor, and digital influencer who is currently making headlines on social media for her viral nikah with her colleague Haris Khokhar. Her Nikah look is also being discussed on social media. Dr. Nabiha opted for a simple look for her nikah — she wore a minimally embellished, elegant off-white bridal dress by Hina Salman, paired with a heavy jewelry set, while her husband Haris twinned with her in an off-white sherwani and qulla.
An online debate sparked on the social media after she revealed the cost of her outfit and jewelry. According to Dr. Nabiha, she wore an expensive jewelry set worth PKR one crore, and her dress was also worth one crore. However, social media users did not believe her claims and began searching for her jewelry online. One user even posted a similar set by Heera Jewelers, a designer jewelry brand that creates imitation versions of gold designs, including the one Dr Nabiha wore on her special day. First watch the video:
The jewelry set video shared by a social media user sparked an online debate, with most people saying that the design looks very cheap, lacks finishing and neatness, and is in no way equivalent to 40 tolas of gold. One wrote, “This isn’t real gold, and if she wanted to wear artificial jewelry, she should’ve worn something more original (or better quality).” Another claimed, “This looks so fake”. A social media user wrote, “She is lying just to become famous and get views.” Another commented, “And she said 1 ½ crore cost of this bridal set” One said, “Even if these two sets are original, they can’t be worth 2 crores. I have 40 tolas of gold myself, Mashallah, with many pieces, and still, their value isn’t that high — even one pearl (moti) set doesn’t cost that much.” Read the comments:

Sher
Writer: Zanjabeel Asim Shah Director: Aehsun Talish Channel: ARY Digital
Sher is another feather in Danish Taimoor’s cap as the drama joins the list of both the Best Dramas of 2025 as well as the most Popular Pakistani Dramas of 2025. This show had a beautiful story, very strong performances, and a pace that kept the audience hooked throughout. Sher had a massive viewership with its first episode clocking 56 million views, while it ended with a cinema premiere and 23 million views on the last episode on YouTube, when it was not even uploaded on the release day.
All these were massively popular Pakistani dramas of 2025. This also shows how there’s no single formula for making a drama that will bring viewership. Sometimes dramas like Do Kinaray and Iqtidar can get viewership despite not having massive expectations, while on the other hand, a show like Main Manto Nahi Hoon can receive backlash despite a decent number of views. Danish Taimoor lands on the list twice, first with Mann Mast Malang, which was borderline inappropriate, while his second drama, Sher, had great direction, a good storyline, and he finally gave an out-of-the-box performance.
