    ‘I don’t get his dressing sense, he should change his stylist’: Aagha Ali on Danish Taimoor

    Aagha Ali has said that he does not get Danish Taimoor’s dressing sense and suggested him to change his stylist.

    Recently, Aiman Khan and Muneeb Butt appeared on The Couple Show, and amidst a show’s segment, the Daldal actor asked Aagha that which actor in the industry has no dressing sense and needs a designer? To which Aagha replied: “I recently watched his show and his attire in it and I didn’t get his dressing. So, I thought whoever styled it should change it, and that’s Danish (Taimoor). He’s otherwise well dressed but he’s hosting a show and I saw that. I don’t know if that was an experiment, but not a very good one. I think his clothes were very loud.

    PM was informed about the meeting between Asif Ali Zardari and Pervaiz Elahi

    Speaker Punjab Assembly Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said on Thursday that Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan was informed about his meeting with Asif Ali Zardari.

    Speaking to anchorperson Muneeb Farooq on Geo News programme ‘Capital Talk,’ the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leader said his party is a coalition partner of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and had never betrayed their ally.

    “Before going to see Zardari sahab, I asked Moonis [Elahi] to inform PM Imran Khan about it [the meeting],” Elahi told Muneeb Farooq when asked about rumours following his surprise meeting with the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader.

    Elahi said that he went to thank Zardari for his cooperation in holding unopposed Senate elections in Punjab.

    “I had talked to him before the polls on Nawaz Sharif’s request that the PPP should withdraw its candidates. We knew what were the weaknesses of all parties and what was their due share in the Senate seats. So on the basis of it, Tariq Bashir Cheema, Moonis Elahi, and I worked on it and thankfully we achieved the goal of holding an unopposed election in Punjab,” added Elahi. 

    Earlier, Minister of Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry had confirmed on the Geo News show ‘Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath’ that Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi had informed the government about his meeting with Asif Ali Zardari.

    The meeting between the two leaders that took place earlier this week at Lahore’s Bilawal House. The Punjab government termed the meeting between the two leaders as a “storm in a teacup”.

    Student in US harrased for highlighting Palestinians, Uighurs in her graduation speech

    Huda, a Muslim student, in the United States (US) became the target of racial insults by parents and students for highlighting the plight of Palestinians and Uighurs in her graduation speech.

    “Our lips are yet free. Speak for those who cannot speak for themselves and stand up for any injustice that you see,” Huda said in her speech

    “Educate yourself about international dilemmas including the ethnic cleansings of Palestinians and Uighur Muslims. Families are continuously torn apart and real human lives are being lost but ignored. Educate yourself on the widespread issues that plague our planet and threaten our very existence in the long run,” she added.

    Huda further said, “Consider global warming with the gravity that it needs to be looked at with and never stop speaking about these issues until they are resolved.”

    Huda was asked to ‘go back to Pakistan’ and was harassed by fellow students and their parents.

    One of the students can be heard in the video saying, “Why did not you say anything about Hamas? Hamas would have been nice.”

    A disclaimer was also added in the video that this line was not “approved by the Wheatley Speech Selection Committee”.

  • Muneeb Butt thinks that Azaan Sami Khan is a product of Nepotism

    Muneeb Butt recently appeared on Hina Altaf and Aagha Ali’s The Couple Show. During a segment of the show, Aagha asked Muneeb that who he thinks is a “parchi” in the younger generation of the industry. To which the Daldal actor replied, “I think it was comparatively easier for Azaan Sami Khan to come into the industry than other actors.”

    Azaan is the son of veteran Pakistani actress Zeba Bakhtiar and singer Adnan Sami.

    Agha then concluded the conversation by saying that so you think Azaan is a ‘parchi’ and Muneeb nodded with a smile. Azaan will make his small screen debut in the forthcoming drama serial, Ishq-e-Laa opposite powerhouse performers Sajal Aly and Yumna Zaidi.

  • ‘I was setting up Ali with other girls but Sajal and Mariam wanted us to be together’: Saboor Aly

    ‘I was setting up Ali with other girls but Sajal and Mariam wanted us to be together’: Saboor Aly

    Saboor Aly has revealed a secret about her engagement to Ali Ansari, saying that it was just as surprising for the two of them as it was for their fans.

    Saboor, who appeared on Amir Liaquat’s show with Ali just a few days before their engagement, shared with BBC Urdu that the two weren’t planning on anything even then.

    “Mariam has always been a good friend of mine and she would talk about how she’s looking for a good girl for her brother and I would suggest eligible girls to him. I would suggest girls to consider him,” recalled Saboor with a laugh. The Gul-o-Gulzar actor went on to share how Mariam then started asking her to consider Ali, saying how he was “a very nice person and anyone who ends up with him would be very lucky.” However, Saboor did not give it much of a thought until her sister Sajal insisted on the same. “They asked us to talk to each other and see where it goes,” shared Saboor.

    “When we started talking, I made it clear that I don’t want to prolong the talking stage and that if there had to be something, I’d want it to happen right away. I thought it would fizzle out after I said that but everything happened very quickly from there on,” she said.

    Saboor didn’t even have a dress ready to wear on her baat pakki event, as things developed very suddenly. “Even when Ali was on his way with his family, I asked him if he was sure as I was scared but now I feel very lucky!” she gushed.

    Good Morning! *|MERGE1|*. It’s June 24.?Yesterday, while I was in the office, I saw the news of the blast in Johar Town, Lahore. Apparently, many people heard the blast in nearby areas. ?According to the latest news, the explosion took place near Hafiz Saeed’s residence. Three people lost their lives while dozens others were injured. This is extremely horrifying. Lahore mein kafi arsay baad dehshatgard hamla huva hai. I really hope ab sab stable rahay.

    But the question is: how could someone enter a populous residential area? Is the Punjab government doing enough for our safety? ?

    Also, After two years of enthralling cricket, New Zealand are the inaugural ICC World Test Championship winners! NZ defeated India in the final on Wednesday. It was such an exciting match. Simon Doull summed it up the best: “Sometimes, maybe sometimes, nice guys do finish first!”?

    It’s going to be a sunny day in most cities today, and some clouds are expected in Karachi.
