    Momina Iqbal has odd advice for actors with few social media followers

    In a video Momina said, “Actors with very few followers should leave the showbiz industry, because with a low following, they will neither get work in films nor in dramas.’

    She said, “Since this morning, about ten individuals on the set have informed me that I have just one million social media followers. Because of this, I won’t be able to get work in dramas.”

    She further said, “I’m advising those with fewer followers to leave the industry. Despite having worked in this field for many years, I still don’t matter here, and the reason for this is that I don’t have many social media followers.”

  • Jaan Nisar: more intriguing than it first appears

    Jaan Nisar: more intriguing than it first appears

    ‘Jaan Nisar,’ a project by 7th Sky Entertainment, is led by the talented duo Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi. This new drama airs on Geo Entertainment and has kicked off with three episodes, hinting at a storyline that’s deeper than it first appears.

    Dua, played by the versatile Hiba Bukhari, is a young girl with big dreams. Unlike the typical obedient and practical sisters, Dua loves dancing and dreams of exotic meals instead of the usual desi dishes. She hopes for someone who can help her achieve her dreams, though she’s not just a “fortune seeker.”

    Enter Nosherwan, a dark, mysterious, and no-nonsense guy, portrayed by Danish Taimoor. He seems like the perfect drama hero, but there may be more to his character than meets the eye.

    On the other side, Dua shares a seemingly love-struck story with Faraz, played by Haroon Shahid. Nosherwan notices Dua on two occasions and seems intrigued, though he hasn’t admitted it to himself yet.

    But there’s a twist: Nosherwan was forced to marry his brother’s widow, Kashmala, a role he’s uncomfortable with as he always saw her as a sister-in-law. The past haunts him and drives him to do good deeds, like protecting women in his village.
    The drama also teases a mystery about Nosherwan’s brother’s death and Dua’s strict father, who has a dubious character.

    ‘Jaan Nisar’ airs on Geo Entertainment every Friday to Sunday at 8:00 p.m. The cast includes Danish Taimoor, Hiba Bukhari, Haroon Shahid, Sajid Hasan, Hina Bayat, Mahmood Aslam, Dania Enwer, Kinza Malik, Hiba Ali, Sajeeruddin Khalifa, Humaira Bano, and Ellie Zaid.

    Photos of their meeting have spread like wildfire on social media, with many amazed by how much they resemble each other.

    The chance meeting at the airport seems to have been purely coincidental, with Krasa returning from a trip out west. They were seen side by side, with Mahira wearing a khaki shirt and trousers.

    Shiraz’s father reveals reasons behind vlogging exit

    Muhammad Shiraz, the rising child social media star from Gilgit Baltistan, has become incredibly popular worldwide with his charming village vlogs.

    Shiraz has recently announced that he is quitting daily vlogging, after which his father received numerous messages and requests from people asking him to reconsider Shiraz’s decision to quit vlogging. In a recent vlog, Shiraz’s father (Muhammad Taqi) addressed all these questions.

    Explaining why Shiraz quit vlogging, his father said, “Shiraz became famous and loved for his vlogs, but he lost his personality, charm, and obedience. I noticed that fame changed his attitude towards his friends, so I decided to keep him away from vlogging.”

    He also said, “The second reason he quit vlogging was because of his studies. He was making vlogs, and we even created his Twitter account, but his studies were suffering due to daily vlogging.”
    Fans continue to believe Shiraz should keep up his vlogging. Meanwhile some fans believe he need to concentrate on studying as well. Here are the comments:

  • ‘We can go wherever we want’, Marina Khan shares her take on living child-free

    ‘We can go wherever we want’, Marina Khan shares her take on living child-free

    The show ‘DigiTales’ invited everyone’s favourite actor Marina Khan on to the show. Among other things, the power house actress discussed her and husband Jalil Akhtar’s choice not to have children. Marina talked about her marriage to Jalil, a well-known producer, and the shared decisions that have kept their relationship strong.

    During the interview, the star, who affectionately calls her husband “Kuchu,” revealed that their decision not to have children wasn’t planned but happened naturally over time. “So Kuchu and I never said that we were never going to have kids,” she said. Talking about their early experiences with their nephews and nieces, she added, “When his brothers had kids, we loved them, played with them, and then we’d just hand them back and come home and say, ‘Nah, that’s too much.’”

    Marina talked about how their growing careers in television influenced their decision. “I think our journey in television also started at that time, so it was tough to raise a child. I was never in favour of having a child. I always thought, if anything, I’d adopt a child,” she explained.

    Marina and Jalil often worked together on many projects. “When we started in television, we just never looked back. That allowed us to work together. Even now, if I had a choice, I’d continue working with him,” she shared, highlighting their strong partnership. “He has a more logical brain; I’m a little scattered. But now we don’t do dramas anymore. I think the last thing we, as a company, did together was the remake of ‘Tanhaiyaan.’ He was the producer; I was directing it.”

    Marina said that not having children has given them special freedom and strengthened their bond. “I feel very comfortable being with him, and that has enabled us to go wherever we want to together because we don’t have a child to tend to,” she said.

  • ‘I know that I am a fantastic guy’; Aagha Ali breaks silence on ‘red flag’ label

    ‘I know that I am a fantastic guy’; Aagha Ali breaks silence on ‘red flag’ label

    Actor-singer Aagha Ali called himself a ‘fantastic guy’ while talking about how people see him and the label ‘ red flag’.

    In a new interview, Aagha talked about the wrong idea people have of him as a ‘red flag’ in relationships and how it has affected him over the years.
    “I was affected by what people said after COVID. I couldn’t eat for three days,” Ali recalled. “There were a lot of controversies about me, and publications wrote all sorts of things, which impacted me. I would think that these people don’t know anything, and I can’t show my entire life to them because there is another person involved whom I can’t and didn’t want to harm.”

    The actor from ‘Mere Bewafa’ continued, “There was this stuff on the internet where people began to say I’m a red flag. I guess they meant I’m not good at relationships. That made me feel”

    “Because I know I’m a fantastic guy, and I’m saying this because Allah knows who I am,” he said. “I love my fans so I won’t explain much. But I started from nothing, with no support or connections in the industry. I’m also unlucky in that way because I couldn’t be friends with people or get close to them—for various reasons—but still, I survived for 10 years and acted as the main character in over 90 TV series, which is a lot,” Ali concluded.

  • ‘I would have played tajdaar’s father or the Nawab’: HSY reflects on ‘Heeramandi’:

    ‘I would have played tajdaar’s father or the Nawab’: HSY reflects on ‘Heeramandi’:

    Fashion designer Hassan Sheheryar Yasin, popularly known as ‘HSY’ recently appeared in ‘Aap Ki Kahani’ hosted by Deepak Parwani.

    The host asked the designer about which ‘Heeramandi’ character he would have liked to play. “That’s a good question,” HSY replied, elaborating that the show is complex and widely discussed. “Many people relate to it, while others don’t. Some view it critically because they see it as reflective of their own lives. I would have liked to play Tajdaar’s father because, despite having fewer scenes, his betrayal is unforgettable. Another interesting role would be the Nawab who leaves Bebo Jan for someone else. His character has twists, showing love to another and then abandoning it due to family values. People say the series is complex, but I think it is well-told.”
