  • Javed Sheikh was going to star with Rekha in famous blockbuster

    Javed Sheikh was going to star with Rekha in famous blockbuster

    Veteran Lollywood star Javed Sheikh has seen many ups and downs in the industry. He is now opening up about some of his struggles.

    Recently, he was invited as a guest on Metro Live TV’s chit chat session on YouTube. Sheikh talked about the tough times he had seen, including losing a lot of money because of his divorce from Salma Agha and missing out on a big Bollywood movie role.

    “I was already divorced when I married Salma Agha, but our marriage only lasted three years. It’s a complicated story that I’ll share another time. After our divorce, there was a lot of conflict and drama. I was supposed to work on a film in India called Khoon Bhari Maang with Rekha, but I was forced to drop out. Similarly, in Pakistan, I was replaced in the film Bangkok Kay Chor by Izhar Qazi, and in India, Kabir Bedi took my place in Khoon Bhari Maang alongside Rekha. I didn’t want Pakistan’s reputation to be damaged in Bollywood, so I didn’t pursue the matter further. If I were a greedy person, I would have left Salma Agha immediately after the film.”

    Javed Sheikh also said, “Salma used to take me to India and wouldn’t let me join my sets in Pakistan. As a result, many films went to other actors. She looked down on Pakistani films and didn’t let me go back to Pakistan, which led to film producers replacing me with other actors.”

    Kidnapped girl found from sister’s home in Kotri

    Local police have resolved the mysterious disappearance of an 8th grade student from Kotri area. The missing girl, Karishma Magsi, was recovered from her sister’s house.

    News of the girl’s disappearance went viral on social media.

    Express Tribune reported that Karishma’s father Himmat Ali Magsi initially lodged a case of Karishma’s abduction against his three nephews including Naik Mohammad Magsi, Amir Magsi, and Munir Ahmed Soomro in Kotri police station.

    The police reported that Karishma was recovered from her elder sister’s house living in Daur. The raid happened 12 days after the incident. Later, she was produced in the court.

    The police revealed that the girl’s father created the hoax of her kidnapping and registered a case against the nephews because of his personal enmity with them over property and other domestic issues.

    SHO Khair Muhammad Mallah said that action would be taken against Himmat Ali Magsi for lodging a false case.

    However, Karishma’s parents along with their relatives, protested in front of Kotri Press Club.

    They alleged that the abductors left the child at her elder sister’s house as soon as the case was registered. They also accused the police of pressurising and harassing them.

    They demanded that the Chief Minister and IG Sindh take notice of the unfair attitude of the police and provide justice.
