Javed Sheikh is one of the biggest legends of Pakistan. He has been ruling the drama and film industry for four decades now. He also had a successful career in Bollywood. The star has always been candid about his professional and personal life and shared how he was once replaced from a film and he went through the lowest point of his life.

Faisal Rehman is also a big name of the Pakistani film industry. He was a romantic hero just like Javed Sheikh and they both used to work in both Urdu and Punjabi films. Javed revealed in Vasay Chaudhary’s show how he was once made to feel low in his career.

Javed Sheikh revealed that he had given a flop and he was approached for another film. He was all set to star in that film when he was called by the makers who told him that the distributor thinks he is a flop actor and wanted to replace him with Faisal Rehman. The actor was replaced and he cried. He had to struggle for a few years but he reached stardom and the same people came back to him for a film. He did not hold any bitterness and signed on with them.

This is what he revealed:

A famous Pakistani actor and a hero of past, Javed Sheikh, has rejected an offer to work in Indian films as they were offering side roles to him. He has clearly said this to Indian film producers that he will not do small roles until they offer him a strong leading role. Javed Sheikh is the most popular and accepted actor of Pakistan film industry and he has performed many leading roles in Pakistani films. Now he is expecting same from the Indian film industry, he wants to do strong roles in Indian films and has refused to do small acts. Recently, he has come back from a tour of India where he was offered by 3 film producers to work in their films, but he has refused their offer because they were not offering him any strong role to act on.

He was offered by Yash Raj Production and he has accepted that roles because that roles are leading the films. He is doing two films in Yash Raj Production. The reason of refusing other three roles from Indian producer as, “I don’t want to spoil my talent of acting by performing on such unnoticed roles”. Moreover, he is recently thinking to perform in a Punjabi film which will be on international cinemas. He has shown hope about this film and said that the project will start in this year. Pakistan’s film industry has lost its recognition and it only needs unity, so all the Pakistani actors and actress should work with unity so that we could give it its strength back.

Recently, Javed Sheikh appeared on Samaa TV’s morning show Subh Ka Samaa, hosted by Madeha Naqvi. During the show, he shared his thoughts on blood relations.

Talking about it, Javed Sheikh said, “Blood relations sometimes only disgrace or humiliate you or make you feel cursed. Friendships or soul relationships, on the other hand, often prove to be closer to you and do far more for you than blood relations. I think we are all witnessing what blood relations are doing nowadays. We see children taking all the property from their parents and sending them to old homes. At the same time, we witness residents of old homes being taken care of by their friends; in some cases, they even take them into their own homes. This is why soul relationships are more valuable than blood relations.” Watch here:

Today is the blessed day of Arafat. Performing Hajj is obligatory for every affording Muslim once in a life time. Every Muslim all over the world wishes to perform Hajj at least once in their life time but many don’t get the chance as it is only by the invitation of Allah SWT.

Nida Yasir invited celebrities who have performed either Hajj or Umrah as well as an Islamic scholar and discussed different aspects of performing Hajj. Javed Sheikh was a guest on the show and he shared that he has performed Umrah three times and he plans to go for Hajj next year God-willing. He asked a very important question that many people in the world have when they see visibly corrupt people going for Hajj with Haram income.

He asked the scholar if that Hajj performed with Haram income is accepted. The scholar replied that Allah is all forgiving and in case anyone wants to repent and gives back the looted wealth and goes for Hajj with clean money their Hajj will be accepted but the first clause is that Hajj should be performed with Halal income. Thus, going to Hajj using Haram income would not serve the purpose.

Here is what the scholar shared:

After a while, the director came to me and said that I had to rehearse with Imran Hashmi. I told the director that I am not going anywhere—he will come to me for rehearsals.

Not only this, my kids, Saleem’s kids, Behroz and other siblings’ kids used to get together at our place and this credit solely goes to my ex-wife.

People used to speak against me, and the whole studio turned against me. They used to say, “Javed Sheikh is finished; he should go back to Karachi.It was a time when I could have broken down and left everything. It was my bad phase—I could have fallen into depression. Waheed Murad also faced a rough patch, but he succumbed to depression, whereas I didn’t lose heart. I never stopped going to the studio. I would go, sit, and meet my friends.”

He further added, “I had strong faith in Allah. I didn’t believe in the gossip and kept trusting His power. One day, a financier came to the studio and gave me 5 crore for my upcoming film. Can you believe it? Allahu Akbar! I made the film, and it became a super hit.After that, I didn’t give tickets to those who used to gossip about me.”

Javed Sheikh who is a man of many talents, has been an integral part of the industry for several decades. He has been working in local and Indian films simultaneously for years and has a long list of big screen projects to his credit.

Sheikh attends almost all of the films’ premieres as well as trailer and music launches to show his support for local cinema. Sharing his thoughts on the subject, he noted, “I’ve been supporting all the newcomers for so many years. I’m a part of the revival.

Javed Sheikh is a veteran Pakistani television and film actor, director, and producer. He is equally popular in both India and Pakistan. These days, fans are praising his performance in the drama serial Iqtidar. He also received acclaim for his phenomenal acting in the blockbuster drama Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. Javed Sheikh is considered the undisputed king of the Pakistani entertainment industry due to his longstanding dominance in both film and television.

Recently, he made an appearance on Mubashir Luqman’s show on the 356 News channel via a telephone link. During the show, he spoke about the decline of Bollywood’s Khans.

In response to Mubashir Luqman’s question, “What will happen now as people aren’t accepting them as heroes at the age of 60, should they consider doing character roles?” He replied, “It is very difficult for them to appear in character roles. They won’t do such roles, and it’s hard for people to accept them as fathers or grandfathers. It’s difficult for people—though not for me, as I’m already playing character roles. But not everyone is ready to accept them in such roles. I haven’t met them for the past three years since this decline. Maybe if I had met them, I would have advised them. Netflix has also damaged the Bollywood industry.”

Javed Sheikh is one of the biggest superstars of Pakistan. He had a successful career in films and TV and he also made a big name in Bollwyood. The star is still very much relevant and he is a part of all the big shows. His latest Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum won hearts left, right and center.

His two children with Zeenat Mangi, actors Shahzad Sheikh and Momal Sheikh also suffered due to the breakup he had.

Javed Sheikh shared that their lives were disturbed and the kids saw a difficult time. It was later at Momal’s wedding that he came back home and he is not guilty and feels grateful that he was able to do everything for his children. From their education to marriages, he was there for everything in the end and this makes his conscience very clear.

I didn’t want Pakistan’s name to be tarnished in Bollywood. I didn’t do greed, had I been a greedy person, I would have left Salma Agha right after doing that film”. Here is the link to the video:

On another occasion Javed Sheikh revealed that Salma Agha used to take him to India and didn’t let him join his sets in Pakistan after which a lot of films went to the other actors. He said that Salma used to look down upon Pakistani films and didn’t let me go back to Pakistan after which the film producers replaced me with other actors. He was quite angry while explaining all this. Watch here:

Talking about his role, Javed Sheikh told the media that he is the female lead’s father and Ali Zafar is playing the role of his friend’s son. They were all close to eachother in “androon shehr” but now they have moved to Poland and hence the adventures begin as love navigates its way through cultural differences.

Well, the movie is certainly getting more and more interesting..

Javed Sheikh has ruled the film industry for over two centuries and even now he has been seen in some of the most notable projects on television and the big screen. Javed Sheikh got candid about his likes and dislikes when he was invited as a guest by Yasir Hussain on his show After Moon Show With Yasir.

He said that he preferred a heroine from the past as opposed to wanting to work then with someone from the present.

A lot of Pakistani social media users are of the view that Pakistani artists think too big of Bollywood actors. Well, the fans also said that Pakistani artists don’t respect their talent. They also said that an actor like Javed Sheikh should demand a high amount because his work and craft is matchless. Fans were angry on his statement. Here are the comments:

Javed Sheikh is back in the Pakistani film industry with a bang. He has been part of some of the most hit films of the season. Not only this he has played a very active role in promoting these films too. Javed Sheikh feels very happy that Pakistani film industry has started the journey of its revival with some superb films.

While talking to Duniya News Javed Sheikh said,

“Cinema goers gave preference to Pakistani films on Eid and showed their patriotism. After working with Hamayun Saeed, director Nadeem Baig and the entire team of Jawani Phir Nahi Aani I realized how talented the young lot is.”

He also said that it is the responsibility of the people running the cinemas that they should help in this revival by giving preference to Pakistani films. Javed Sheikh informed everyone,

“I am going to be making my own film very soon. All the paper work has already been done.”

Javed Sheikh recently won the best actor award at the Lux Style Awards for his performance in the film Na Maloom Afraad. Javed Sheikh was also part of films like Wrong No. and Halla Gulla. He has also been seen shooting in Thailand for Sawal 700 Crore Ka.

Javed Sheikh and Momal Sheikh are the star father-daughter duo. They have both done well in their careers with Javed Sahab being the absolute superstar both in films and television. They have had a turbulent family life initially when Javed Sheikh and his wife Zeenat Mangi went through separation and divorce. They have spoken about how children suffered and parents also had to go through hard times because of it. They reconciled as a family and brought their dad back home when Momal was getting married.

Javed Sheikh and Momal Sheikh were guests on Gohar Rasheed’s Ramz and spoke about how divore affects men and women. Javed said that he feels women suffer a lot more when a relationship breaks. A man busies himself in his work and outside but the woman is in the house. She is taking care of the children. She has to feel a lot more pressure and therefore she suffers a lot more.

This is what he said:

Momal Sheikh spoke for men who go through a divorce. She said that men’s emotions do get sidelined under such conditions. A man rarely gets the custody of the children. The woman will have the kids with her which will pacify her. A man is never asked how he will cope with not having his kids with him. Also men are not allowed to showcase their emotions. In a world where women also go out and work, a man should also get an equal chance with his children after divorce. His family can step in and help. Men also go through similar grief after getting divorced.

Listen to what Momal shared:

The veteran actor Javed Shaikh who had been a part of industry since decades, has done some remarkable works in Lollywood and Bollywood too. He has signed his latest project with director/producer Zulfiqar Ahmed Sheikh titled Saach. Javed’s character is a billionaire who’s a father of two sons.

Zulfiqar told Images, “The film is a musical romance/ drama. I’ve been working on it for two years now, finally the screenplay is ready, just need to do the dialogues.”

He added that the lead roles of the sons, other cast members, the music director and writer will be revealed soon. The film will feature seven songs, all of which are “absolutely amazing.”

“There are many cameo roles and shooting will start July [2017],” he concluded.

Javed Shaikh is currently seen in an UAE set drama ‘Khwaabon k Darmiyaan’ airing on Indian channel ZeetvMe. The show also stars Muneeb Butt in the lead roles.

The World Cup is just around the corner and Pakistani cricket is going through all the drama and politics that is possible in the country.

Javed Miandad is a legendary cricketer and he had advice for the team. He said that all the players need to play like a team and remain professional. Yes, this is a game and there can be rifts but the national team should be taken responsibly and Pakistan comes first.

This is what he said:

Replying to one question, Javed said that Shaheen Shah Afridi should be the captain as he was just put in the seat and he should have been given the time to prove his worth. He was all for Shaheen as the captain and supported him leading the team.

Here is what he said:

Javed Miandad, Pakistan’s legendary cricketer has called on the PCB to boycott against their arch-rivals, India, in all ICC events.

The veteran of 124 Tests, who also coached the national team thrice, said it was time Pakistan took a strong stance on cricket ties with India keeping in mind national interest and pride. This came in result to what India’s sports minister, Vijay Goel had announced earlier; no Pakistan sportspersons will be allowed to play in India or vice versa except for when it is at a neutral venue and at a multilateral tournament, such as the ICC Champions Trophy.

The former team captain said,

It is time we responded with bricks to stones. There is no need for us to play with India at any forum if they are not willing to restore bilateral ties. We should also boycott playing against them in all ICC events.

Miandad believed that boycotting India at all events will affect the ICC’s financials greatly as one of the biggest games are the matches between India and Pakistan. According to him, this would eventually lead to a better treatment of Pakistan on this particular issue.

I think when we don’t play India in ICC events and the ICC suffers financial losses and their events lose significance and colour, only then we will be treated with respect and we will be heard on a equal level at any forum.

What do you think of Miandad’s statements? Do you support him in this boycott or are you against him?

Famous Pakistani actor and comedian Javed Kodu passed away on Saturday, 12th April 2025, after a long battle with multiple life-threatening illnesses. He served the entertainment industry for nearly 47 years and appeared in more than 150 films, television dramas, and stage plays. His notable works include Aashiyana, Hero, Pagri Sambhal Jatta, Ainak Wala Jin, Boxer, Desan Da Raja, Jadu Nagri, and many others.

Today, his eldest son Tayyab shared the details of his last moments before death.

Talking about it, he said, “He was fine but at 9:00 PM, his blood pressure dropped. I took him to Shalimar Hospital, where he was given emergency treatment, but his blood pressure couldn’t return to normal. He was discharged soon after. We reached home, and he started having difficulty breathing. We took him back, but he passed away shortly after. He had already told me, ‘This Eid is my last Eid,’ and also asked me to take care of the family. He loved people deeply. I’m shocked at the courage of my father. He fought courageously with his illness. He was fond of meeting people, but no one used to visit him. He only wanted to meet his friends—we never needed any financial help. He was a perfect father. I pray that everyone is blessed with a father like him”. Here is the link to the video:

Javed Kodu’s funeral was attended by Kashif Mehmood, Aurangzeb Laghari, Afzal Khan, Naseem Vicky, Saleem Khawaja and others. Here are a few pictures from funeral:

Javed Kodu is a veteran theatre, film and television artist of Pakistan. He is a little person and he has worked with all the big names in the country. He has seen the whole evolution of the industry and seen some really painful times in his life. He was a guest on Hina Niazi’s show and revealed that pain he has seen in his life.

Javed Kodu revealed the painful time when once his mother asked for some debt as he wanted to buy toys. The way they were treated made him realize that he has to earn his own money. He went away to look for work but was kidnapped and he was taken to a remote hotel where he used to wash dishes for 18 hours in a day and he was not allowed to contact anyone. It was nothing short of slavery and he was finally able to run away from there but he remembers the painful time.

This is what he shared:

He also revealed that artists are always exploited everywhere. As soon as someone sees an artist, be it a doctor or a tailor, they will hike up the prices in order to exploit that artist. Listen to what he shared from his own life experiences:

Javed Kodu is a veteran theatre actor and performer with thousands of live performances under his belt. He has worked really hard in his life to reach a legendary status and he had to face many more obstacles as he had dwarfism. His son Shera now works in Mazaq Raat , he is the dwarf artist who appears on the show. Javed Kodu was a guest on Mazaq Raat and shared about many facets of his life.

Javed shared how he was bullied as a child due to his condition. A boy once hit him on the road as he was coming from school and the boy’s father encouraged his behaviour that as Javed has dwarfism, he should be hit. He went home that day while his head was bleeding. This is the behaviour he has faced from society in his life.

Here is what he revealed:

He also revealed that he once fell for a woman from his field but things never worked out between them. He straight away asked her to marry him but she wanted other things in life and rejected the offer. This is something he remembers till today.

Check out the story he narrated:
