Mahira Khan has clarified that she is not offered indian movies as been reported in press. Mahira feels for recognition in acting in dramas as well as in modelling. Mahira is not ammused by the rat race of number one in any field. She was talking to media at the launch of film O21 in Karachi.
Mahira said, film is not her preference but she spare her time for dramas and modelling. Mahira told she is working in a film Bin Royee Aansoo directed by Sultana Siddiqi while more offers are also in the bag. Many producers want to cast her. To avoid monotony, Mahira also seek to appear in different roles and quality work. Mahira enjoys working in Pakistani film rather then in any indian film. So far Mahira has worked in only film Bol, which was released in 2011.
Pakistan film industry is rising from the ashes but it can easily be said that this is because of the sole efforts of the private sector. Our government seems to neglect funding our film industry time and again. Nothing different happened in the Punjab budget this year.
In the recently announced Punjab budget for year 2017-2018, the film industry was neglected as always. Prominent celebrities expressed their anger at this.
The famous director Syed Noor said it was disappointing that the provincial government ignored film industry in the budget. He further said that the authorities should have allocated specific amount for the revival of the cinema in the country.
Veteran actor Ghulam Moinuddin complained that Marriyum Aurangzeb,the Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting had promised to take steps in the betterment of the film industry but alas, these were just words as it turns out.
Shafaq Cheema, another gem of Pakistan media industry, also seemed outraged over this injustice with the film industry. He lamented that this industry always gets fake pledges and vows. He further expressed that if the government pays serious attention on this matter, then the industry can be taken on the top again.
Javed Sheikh had similar grievances that every year the film industry is promised of funds, development, and every year they are disappointed.

Rangreza:
Rangreza had Bilal Ashraf, Urwa Hocane and Gohar Rasheed among the lead cast and the music was beautiful too but the film has disappointed at the box office garnering nearly 2 crores since its release.
Arth-The Destination:
Arth-the destination was sort of a comeback for Shaan Shahid towards the romantic genre and flaunted a very talented cast including Humaima Malik, Mohib Mirza and Uzma Hassan. But the film did not perform well at the box office with collections somewhat more than 2 crores which were unexpected as well as disappointing.
Cupan Chupai:

Also, the same happened again when my cousins passed away. She was just 23, I was angry at her, she called me multiple times before her death but I didn’t receive her calls. There were things that she wanted to clear. Now, I regret that I should have listened to her. Here is the link to the video:

I thank Allah that I gained fame and money, but sometimes I feel that this is not where I truly belong. In our society, media professionals are not readily accepted; this is the reality.

Fictional characters are played by individuals in movies or dramas who have a story to tell or a personality to showcase. Some of these characters are so strong that it becomes hard for us to forget them. Here’s a list of fictional characters which we have become deeply attached to:
Russell (Up)
Russell appeared in the movie Up in which he portrayed the role of a wilderness explorer. This little, chubby guy is the most adorable person ever who only wishes to earn the last badge of helping an eldery so he can become promoted to senior wilderness explorer. His persistence, confidence and fearlessness is what makes this character most lovable.
Fa Mulan (Mulan)
Fa Mulan is not your typical princess, she does not dream of a prince who will sweep her off her feet. Instead she dreams of serving her country, China, which she ultimately does in place of her father by going into disguise. Her strong willed, fierce and brave nature sets her apart from other Disney princesses and makes her the best one out there.
Elle Woods (Legally Blonde)
Although Elle Woods is shown to be particularly dumb and driven by emotions due to her boyfriend breaking up with her. He tells her she is not marriage material which shatters her but ultimately boosting her confidence to prove him wrong she takes admission in Harvard. Her genius intellect, humble nature, smart thinking prove she is most definitely Harvard worthy!
Gracie Hart (Miss Congeniality)
Another strong character, Gracie Hart is a FBI agent forced to go undercover to a beauty pageant to stop a crime from happening. She is strong willed, determined and does not take orders from anyone thus following her own rules to finding out who wants to destroy the pageant. Her quick thinking and skills make her an applause worthy character.
Anjali (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai)
Rahul’s best friend Anjali despised the idea of love but as much as her friendship blossomed, she realized she was actually in love with Rahul. A tomboy at heart, she failed to let Rahul know what was in her heart as he disclosed he loved Tina. Anjali decides to bury the truth inside her but Tina senses it. Like really, how dumb could Rahul be? I feel it was also selfish of Tina to not leave her place for Anjali when she already knew Anjali loved Rahul. This makes Anjali a true lover in my eyes!! You go girl!!!
Ved Sahni (Tamasha)
Ved grew up being fascinated by stories, by the worlds they took him to, he was a storyteller trapped inside an everyday guy. But due to societal and family pressures, he opted for the regular life and turned out to be yet another ordinary human being. Ved’s transition from storyteller to ordinary to storyteller again makes us feel deeply for him. Gladly, in the end he chooses the right path of being the artist he always was.

Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has issued summon notices to Iffat Omar, Ali Gul Pir and 15 others for making derogatory remarks about Ali Zafar. The FIA proceedings are related to Zafar’s defamation case against Meesha Shafi, who accused him of sexual harassment in which he was proved innocent.
Ali Zafar submitted an application to the cyber crime wing of the agency in which it was mentioned that he is being maligned through various pictures and his video clips that were posted on social media . He called this a ‘pre-planned conspiracy’ due to which him and his family faced severe mental stress and financial loss.
The FIA has also summoned Maham Javed, Fareeha Ayub, Mohsin Syed and Subha Ghani among others. While model-actor Iffat Omar has already recorded her statement, the rest are expected to have their statements recorded next week.
According to Deputy Director of FIA, Ali Zafar had moved an application and requested an action to be taken on it. As a result, the cyber crime wing is taking all necessary measures.
The journalists tried to reach out to Ali Gul Pir and Iffat Omar but they didn’t show up regarding the matter.
Ali Zafar last month, expressed outside the court and revealed the propaganda of Feminists that how fake social media accounts were setting a campaign to defame him and his reputation.
He said they are doing it for personal gains and this is why the movement is losing its meaning because there are many real life victims who need to raise voice but such fake voices suppress their voice and the game is being played against me, he said I am being used to officially launch the me too movement and I am going to fight against it
All the digital media accounts were interlinked with a group of Feminists. The common link seems to be Nighat Dad. They were all either working with or for her,” he had then shared.
“There is a social media campaign against me,” Zafar maintained. “Shafi’s lawyer has been following and retweeting fake accounts. We have filed a case against this as well with the FIA, since it comes under cyber crime and cyber bullying.”
We think that he is successful in his war with such powerful people who are directly linked with international campaigns to launch them officially and we all know a movement is only successful when it is launched against a powerful, famous and successful person.
More power to Ali Zafar and all innocents untill proven guilty.
Ali Zafar and Meesha Shafi Harassment case remained a part of highlights ever since Meesha Shafi filed a case of sexual assault against Ali Zafar.
The case got complexed after the addition of various other cases one of which was filed by Ali Zafar against Meesha Shafi and her other fellows for staging a smear campaign against Ali Zafar. FIA has released the final verdict of this case and finds Meesha Shafi and 7 other people guilty of running a slanderous social media campaign against singer Ali Zafar.
FIA Finds Meesha Shafi Guilty
In the challan submitted to a Lahore court on Tuesday, the FIA said these people were unable to provide witnesses to Shafi’s sexual harassment. This is not a final verdict in the harassment case.
In the interim challan, the FIA said: “During the course of investigation so far Meera Shafi alias Meesha Shafi, Iffat Omar, Maham Javaid, Leena Ghani, Haseemus Zaman, Fariha Ayub, Syed Faizan Raza, Humna Raza, and Ali Gul Pir have been found guilty in this case as per available oral and documentary evidences. However, the complainant recorded his statement in favor of Hamna Raza to the extent of accepting her apology, thus she is not required in the investigation furthermore.”
The eight people named in the case were booked on September 29 under Section 20 (Offences against the dignity of a natural person) of the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act and Section 109 (Punishment of abetment) of the Pakistan Penal Code.
In April 2018, Shafi took to Twitter to accuse Zafar of physically harassing her on ‘more than one occasion.’ “This happened to me despite the fact that I am an empowered, accomplished woman who is known for speaking her mind,” she said. In response, Zafar filed a defamation suit against Shafi.
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) cyber crime wing has registered FIR against the singer Meesha Shafi for her involvement on a smear campaign against singer-actor Ali Zafar.
Meesha Shafi, actor-host Iffat Omar, Leena Ghani, Fariha Ayub, Maham Javid, Ali Gul, Haseemuz Zaman Khan, Humna Raza and Syed Faizan Raza have been booked under crime section 20 (1) of Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016 and R/W 109-PPC.
According to FIR, the putative were summoned by FIA Cyber crime wing to present their defense but they didn’t come because of which FIA got a cause of criminal proceedings against them.
In November 2018 Ali Zafar has filed an FIR against Meesha Safi as a result of those accusation of Sexual harassments which were out on Ali Zafar by Meesha Shafi under the banner of #METOO Movement.
Ali Zafar filed a complaint with FIA cybercrime wing pledging that many social media accounts were posting “threats and defaming material” against him.
Meesha Shafi had appeared before FIA with her team of Lawyers in December 2019 but the FIR says that Meesha Shafi failed to produce any witness in favor of allegations against Ali Zafar.
Popular Youtuber Umer Khan aka Ukhano was accused of sexual harassment. He registered FIR and after a year Federal Investigation Agency Cyber Crime Wing has come up with a final report.
FIA has cleared his name and he was falsely accused. The alleged lady after pre-arrest bail from the competent court appeared and stated that she did not upload allegations of sexual harassment against Umer Khan on social media as her Facebook ID was hacked by someone and she was not the one who uploaded the allegations of sexual harassment against Ukhano.
The case has been officially closed because Ukhano does not want to proceed with the FIR against the accuser.
In an interview, Ukhano said, “I stand against harassment and I strongly condemn it but when someone is falsely accused on social media it makes them a target of online bullying and harassment. We should always wait for the verdict of the official authorities “innocent until proven guilty” rather than forming an opinion on the basis of what you see on the internet.”

Eid is just around the corner. I am sure that everyone is done with their Eid shopping and other preparations by now. It always makes me a little sad when the month of Ramadan is drawing to a close because there are so many of us who normally do not follow the teachings of Islam all through the year except in this month. In my opinion while we are all busy with the festivities of Eid, there are a few things which we should not forget.
The spirit of Islam should continue even after the end of the Holy month
The holy month of Ramadan gives us few very valuable lessons. Firstly, that our lives should be dedicated and centered around our religion. Secondly and most importantly there is pleasure in giving. All through Ramadan we try to help out as many people as we can but why only in Ramadan. Why not continue helping others, not just financially but in any way we can all through the year and especially on Eid. The most important thing to remember this Eid is that we must not forget to be generous. Sharing and giving is what can make this occasion more memorable and special, not just for us but also for those who do not have as much resources as many of us.
Don’t forget that we are all equal in the eyes of God
Ramadan teaches us the lesson that we are all equal in the eyes of God. All Muslims, whether they are rich or poor, young or old, live in Europe or Middle East, all of them have the same rituals during Ramadan. We must remember that all teaching of Islam basically try to teach us that we are all equal in the eyes of God. Never look down upon anyone because of their social status.
Making someone smile can be the biggest gift not just for the other person but also yourself
Try to make someone happy even if you have to go out of your way to do so. Making children happy in particular can be s o rewarding, that is something I know from personal experience. If you can’t do something grand, do something small like buy a big pack of sweets and distribute it among children who cross your path on Eid , especially the ones who cannot afford to buy these goodies. A smile on their face will make your day.
Eid is a wonderful time to make up with people you may have fought with or are not talking to
Forgive those who may have wronged you. If you are at fault then there is no better time to ask for forgiveness than on Eid. It will only make your day even better. You may just win a friend or a family member back this Eid only by making the first move so go ahead:)
Unfortunately, there are many of us who think that when Ramadan ends it is time to move on but it is not so. We wish our readers a very Happy Eid, spend time with your friends and families, have a lot of fun but please don’t forget those people who are less fortunate.
May Allah bless all of you and your families on this Eid and all through the year. Ameen.
