The month of April brings with it a promise to give us loads of drama treats. With new dramas releasing every other day, there’s a lot to watch out for. The latest play which has us super excited is none other than ‘Alif Allah aur Insaan‘. The play has created an uproar about its arrival, seizing all the limelight from the rest. So, here are our top 4 reasons why we are desperately waiting for Alif Allah Aur Insaan.
The first reason is the gripping love triangle. For those who have seen the promos of Alif Allah aur Insaan, will know how intense and extraordinary the tale of the drama appears to be. The promos of the play elucidate that Alif Allah aur Insaan is going to have a touch of a love triangle. Remember how Shireen loved Aurang in Sange Marma? It’s the other way around this time. As Shahzeb (Mikaal Zulfiqar) loves Nazneen (Kubra Khan), but Nazneen is head over heels in love with Shehzad sheikh‘s character. So, what makes us wait for the drama is the fate of this love story, because we are sure that Kubra Khan and Mikaal Zulfiqar will create a magic on-screen. We love their chemistry, and the bottom line is, we are super excited to see them together!

Ever wondered how hormones affect our various moods? Sometimes we feel happy, sometimes sad, sometimes angry.. this is all due to hormonal changes in our body. Today, let me tell you about hormones which affect our happiness levels. There are four hormones which determine a human’s happiness namely Endorphins, Dopamine, Serotonin, and Oxytocin. All these are interlinked to each other and it is important we understand these hormones, as we need all four of them to stay happy.
Endorphins
Endorphins are released during physical activity or exercise. This hormone helps the body cope with the pain of exercising. Going running, cycling, cleaning, gardening, doing yoga, getting a massage, eating chocolate also helps release endorphins. Laughter is another good way of generating endorphins, thus increasing happiness. A daily dose of thirty minutes is essential for hormonal balance of endorphins.
Dopamine
Dopamine is released through the body when we get a reward for accomplishing certain tasks either at work or at home. In our journey of life, we accomplish many little and big tasks, it releases various levels of dopamine. When dopamine is released in large amounts, it creates feelings of pleasure and reward, which motivates us to repeat a specific, positive behavior. Dopamine levels can be increased by eating the right level of proteins, getting enough sleep, exercising, getting enough sunlight, meditation, listening to music, etc. This can help in increased motivation levels for getting rewards and positive feedback. Thus the cycle of getting dopamine is repeated.
Serotonin
Serotonin is released when we help others or act in a way that benefits them. Giving back to the society makes many people happy which means their body is releasing serotonin. Buying someone a gift, giving them advice on useful matters, being a shoulder for them to cry on.. all contribute to the increase in serotonin. You can increase your serotonin levels by doing things you love or for loved ones, try keeping a balanced diet, try meditation, getting enough sleep and thinking positive.
Oxytocin
The final hormone Oxytocin is released when we become close to other human beings. Oxytocin is also known as the cuddle hormone or the love hormone. It has physical and psychological effects, including influencing social behavior and emotion.When we hug our friends and family, when we shake hands with someone, various amounts of oxytocin are released. When someone is sad, we can hug them thus giving them happiness. It is just like transfering the hormone to another person. Now, we can understand why we need to hug someone who must be experiencing a bad mood.
So, it is simple, we must exercise or meditate every other day to get endorphins, we must accomplish little goals, get rewards for them and get dopamine, we need to be nice and give back to others to get serotonin and finally hug our kids, friends, and families to get Oxytocin and we will be happy and make them happy. When we are happy, we can deal with our challenges and problems better.
We do not expect the celebrities to wear a same dress but when they do there is bound to be a who wore it better war between them where we love to vote for who rocked in the same dress more and who has carried it more elegantly.
This time the war is not only limited to actresses sporting the same attire but now there are actors involved as well. Four of the famous celebrities have worn the same kurta on multiple occasions and all of them carried it tremendously.
These celebrities are Fawad Afzal Khan, Faisal Qureshi, Mahira Khan and Hania Aamir. Although the color of the kurta that Faisal Qureshi wore was different from the other three ones but other than the color it was same while the other three ones wore the exact same one.
Here are all of them them sporting same kurta.
All of them accessorize it differently though. Mahira Khan with a plazo, Hania Aamir with straights , Fawad Khan and Faisal Qureshi with trousers.
All of them killed it in the kurta and did complete justice to it.
Formula Films have pretty predictable kind of structure and don’t have any story different from routine movies. In short, repeated and reused plots and storyline makes a flop formula movie :) .
During an interview to Express news, Ahsan Khan said that masses of our country have developed their sense of differentiating good and bad. They know which movie they should go to watch in theaters and which not. He further advised to Pakistani Film Makers that People of our country are also expecting to have International quality films that can be released worldwide.
We should realize the need of the hour now; Great and worse movies are part of every Cinema’s culture but we need to eradicate this culture and have to bring about our own trend of movies. If we want to revive Pakistan Film Industry and If we want our cinemas to be over-occupied again, we have to make movies having different story lines.
By making worse quality films, Film makers are not only ruining their time, money and energy but also wasting time of public. He said that movies are great source of entertainment and movie making is among profitable businesses in the world. If we will work faithfully, we will definitely come up with quality content to meet our viewers expectations like recently released Pakistani movie that did great business due to marvelous cinematography.

We should not talk about this divide. We are here because of Altaf Hussain who has taught us a lot. You always talk about revival, how can you revive the film industry without watching the movies. You should watch all his films that always gave social messages, he hasn’t ever made violent films. Altaf Hussain Saab taught me rhythm and dance, he’s striving for the revival of film industry. It’s not revival, we all are doing efforts, these are small steps towards revival, we never talked about the division of the industry. Don’t be part of this divide, just keep on making films, I hope Altaf Hussain will make a good film like he used to make before”

Tamasha is one of Pakistan’s biggest reality shows, airing on ARY Digital every year and based on the format of Big Brother. So far, ARY Digital has aired four seasons of Tamasha from 2022 to 2025, while its fifth season is currently airing and garnering huge public praise. Several contestants, including Babrik Shah, Zee Khan, Laila, Samia Hijab, and Esra, have emerged as some of the top players of the ongoing season.
Last year, Tamasha Season 4 also gained significant popularity, featuring contestants such as Saif Ali Khan, Muslim, Ommy, Zainab Raja, Kanwal Farooq, and Yaseen.
Zainab Raja, who played remarkably well in Season 4, often shares videos and updates on her official Instagram and TikTok accounts. Recently, Zainab Raja made serious claims about Tamasha, alleging that the show is scripted, the winners are pre-decided, and certain contestants are given preferential treatment.
In her recent Instagram stories, Zainab claimed that one of the most popular contestants on the show was actually married and had two children but pretended to be unmarried during his time on Tamasha. According to Zainab, everyone inside the house knew about his marriage, and he was among the Top 5 contestants. Zainab also claimed that her answer regarding whether Tamasha was scripted was edited out of the broadcast. According to her, she told host Adnan Siddiqui, “Scripted hai aapka show,” but alleged that only her silent expressions were aired while her response was removed from the final broadcast. She further added that she had been strictly forbidden from sharing the show’s inside details. Watch here:
She added, “How can I say with proof that PR was being done for the winners of Tamasha in all seasons? Just get this checked through software operators and ask them which contestants’ videos had PR. There were many contestants who had PR.”
She further added that the male contestants were allowed to offer Friday prayers outside the house and were even given access to their families through phone calls, which she considered a major injustice.
Former Tamasha contestant Zainab Raja has alleged unfair treatment by the show's makers. In a recent Instagram video, she claimed male contestants were allowed outside for Friday prayers, where they received outside updates and some even spoke to their managers, while female contestants remained inside.

Shaan e Ramazan is one of Pakistan’s biggest Ramadan transmissions of the year. Waseem Badami and Iqrar ul Hassan host this show every year, and it features multiple unique segments such as Shaan e Ilm, a kids’ segment, a cooking segment, a Naiki segment, and others. The transmission’s most popular segment is the quiz show Shaan e Ilm, which includes general knowledge and politically based questions. After multiple rounds, three participants reach the finals, among whom one wins the trophy and prize money.
Recently, a former contestant, Osama Fazal, appeared on Shaan e Ilm and exposed what he claims to be the reality of the Shaan e Ramzan transmission.
Osama Fazal said, “Today I will expose the reality of Pakistan’s number one Ramadan transmission, Shaan e Ramzan. I will tell you that this year, in the Shaan e Ilm segment, Kabir from Lahore won, while Abdul Rehman was the runner-up. The winner received the prize money, while Abdul Rehman was given an LED. The funny thing is that the same LED was also given to a contestant who lost in the first round. Last year, I also participated in Shaan e Ramzan after spending 60,000 to 70,000 rupees, where I was the runner-up. I was not even given an LED; they only gave me a small gift hamper. Waseem Badami also said that I would receive a big gift, but nothing was given. The irony is that the set of Jeeto Pakistan is right next to Shaan e Ramzan, where people can win a bike just for doing a dance move. This shows the value of talent in Pakistan. The contestant who came third this year also traveled to Karachi to participate in the Ramadan transmission, spending a lot of money on his own. He even stayed in mosques, but got nothing in return. My question is: ARY Digital is a big channel—can’t they distribute prize money among first, second, and third place? And if the channel can’t, can’t Waseem Badami afford it?” Watch here:
Social media users are appreciating the contestant for raising his voice. The channel and its makers are also facing backlash for not honouring intelligent and educated Shaan e Ilm contestants and instead distributing bikes for dance performances in Jeeto Pakistan. Read here:
