    Actress Sana Javed seen avoiding the camera in viral video

    Sana Javed’s response to people filming her without her consent has gone viral on social media.

    Sana is currently traveling with her husband, Shoaib Malik, who is participating in the Legends League.

    While in Birmingham with the team and their families, Sana was filmed without her permission. The actress, visibly uncomfortable, tried to shield her face from the camera with her hands.

    The video quickly spread on social media, sparking a heated debate.

    criticized Sana, claiming she was overreacting.
    Others defended Sana, saying the filming invaded her personal space and privacy. One supporter wrote, “One should respect personal boundaries, regardless of a person’s celebrity status.” Another added, “Celebrities should have the right to protect their privacy. The public should be more mindful of personal boundaries.”

    This incident with Sana Javed is not unique. Actress Dur-e-Fishan Saleem faced a similar situation when she was filmed without her knowledge and also received both criticism and support.

    As one user summed up, “Just because they are celebrities, it doesn’t mean they don’t have any feelings. They’re normal people who get affected by such behavior. The one who made the video should be ashamed.”

  • Marriage in Pakistan is no simple task, says actress Anam Tanveer

    Marriage in Pakistan is no simple task, says actress Anam Tanveer

    Actor Anam Tanveer recently discussed why getting married in Pakistan is harder than in other parts of the world during a podcast with FHM.

    Tanveer pointed out that in many other countries, people can marry who they love without considering religion, social status, or background. However, in Pakistan, these factors play a significant role.

    She gave examples: “In Pakistan, if a guy from DHA likes a girl from Malir, they often can’t marry because of where they live. This shouldn’t be the deciding factor.”

    She added, “If I live in North Nazimabad, a guy might think it’s a cheap and backward area and refuse to marry me. Today, people prioritize where someone lives over compatibility, education, or character. A guy from DHA usually marries a girl from the same area.”

    Tanveer also talked about her ideal partner, saying he should respect women, support his wife, and trust her career goals. She concluded by saying, “I haven’t met a single Pakistani man who respects women well.”

    Babur Junaid Jamshed shares his father’s wish for Shahadat 

    Junaid Jamshed, known for his music and devotion to Islam, left a lasting impact on both, a legacy now carried on by his son.  

    Recently, Babur Junaid appeared as a guest on the Nadir Ali podcast. He talked about the last conversation with his father and his last wish for martyrdom (Shahadat). 

    During the podcast, Nadir Ali respectfully requested permission to share Junaid Jamshed’s last voice note, provided by a close friend. 

    Nadir Ali said, “With your permission, I’d like to discuss your last moments with Junaid Jamshed. I would also like to talk about his last voice note, which was shared by Arsalan Bhai, who used to be with him. I’ve listened to the voice note, and I noticed that Junaid Jamshed often used to say ‘MashaAllah’ and ‘Insha Allah’ frequently, but in his last message, he said, ‘I will come to Karachi’ without adding ‘Insha Allah.’ It seems that Allah had other plans, and it was not meant to be.”. 

    Talking about Junaid Jamshed Shahadat 

    Babur Junaid Jamshed said, “I was at home when we heard about Baba’s news. My mother told me, but there’s something I’ve never told anyone before: he wished for martyrdom. He often said, ‘I acknowledge my faults and wrongdoings; I seek forgiveness,’ which is why he desired martyrdom. Embracing martyrdom was our father’s greatest wish; you wouldn’t believe that he consistently prayed for it. We would become concerned, and my mother would sometimes get upset with his prayers, but that’s how it was.” 

     Junaid Jamshed was a very good, kind, humble, and friendly person, qualities bestowed upon him by Allah.” Babur added.

    K-pop sensation Stray kids celebrates global return at the London festival

    Stray Kids, a popular K-pop group, called it a “career highlight” as they headlined the British Summer Time (BST) Hyde Park Festival on Sunday.
    The eight-member group from South Korea started in 2018 through a reality show by JYP Entertainment. They have fans all over the world with their unique sound and hit songs like ‘God’s Menu,’ ‘S-Class,’ and ‘Maniac.’

    The members, Changbin, Felix, Hyunjin, Lee Know, Han, Seungmin, Bang Chan, and I.N, returned to London after almost five years for their first UK festival performance.

    “It’s a huge festival with a big space. We’re excited to see how our energy will change it,” said Han before their one-hour-and-40-minute set in front of thousands of fans.

    Time magazine named Stray Kids as one of the Next Generation Leaders. Last year, they were third on the global recording artists list by IFPI, and their album “5-Star” was the second biggest-selling album globally.

    In May, all eight members walked the famous MET Gala red carpet in custom Tommy Hilfiger suits. Bang Chan said they are thankful for their streaming success but want to keep making meaningful music for their fans, known as STAYs.

    “A lot of STAYs and people are supporting us, so we keep working hard,” said Seungmin.

    The group is also preparing for their “comeback” with a new EP called ‘ATE,’ released on July 19. Felix said ‘ATE’ stands for the eight members who have “eaten up” their comeback, and fans can expect new styles and concepts.

    “It’s been a while since our last album. With this one, we want to show how genuine we are with music and offer various styles for everyone to enjoy,” said Bang Chan.

    “We’re giving our all, and that makes us confident,” added Changbin.

    Resham slams trolls for mocking her

    Lollywood queen Resham is not just a great actress but also the owner of a heart of gold. But the internet didn’t even spare her charity work. The star opened up about being trolled for her work, feeding underprivileged communities.

    Undeterred by negative comments, Resham said, “People on social media say all kinds of things like she’s making food for charity out of ill-gotten money, but I say let Allah decide.”

    Resham, who has been personally preparing and distributing food to the needy for the past 20 years, emphasized her dedication. “This has been going on continuously for the past six years, all 12 months,” she stated, highlighting her unwavering commitment to helping others.

  • Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai’s viral wedding photo

    Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai’s viral wedding photo

    Bollywood fans went wild when a photo of former couple Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai together at Anant Ambani’s wedding appeared online. The wedding, hosted by India’s richest businessman Mukesh Ambani on July 12, was a star-studded event with many Bollywood stars and international celebrities in attendance.

    Aishwarya Rai, along with her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan, posed for photos. The rest of the Bachchan family also attended separately. However, a viral image showing Aishwarya holding Salman Khan’s hand, with Salman’s sister Arpita Khan Sharma in the background, grabbed everyone’s attention.

    Fans speculated and expressed joy, wondering if the two stars were getting back together. But it was soon revealed that the photo was fake and created using artificial intelligence (AI).

    They also had a real-life relationship that ended years ago, even though they were close to getting married.

  • Crossroads: Asia’s first vertical series breaking boundaries

    Crossroads: Asia’s first vertical series breaking boundaries

    ‘Crossroads’ is making history as Asia’s first vertically shot series. This means it’s filmed in a 9:16 aspect ratio, perfect for mobile viewing. It’s available in over 20 languages, using both human and AI dubbing to reach a global audience. Each episode lasts just 75 seconds, ideal for busy schedules. You can watch it on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.

    The story follows Burak, a billionaire seeking revenge, and Haya, a game designer. After a painful breakup in college, they unexpectedly reunite when Haya’s company partners with Burak’s business. This reignites old emotions, leading to a gripping tale of love, revenge, and second chances.

    The first five episodes introduce Baby Billionaire Burak, played by Khushhal Khan. Each under 2 minutes, these episodes keep viewers hooked with Burak’s insights on love and success, his painful college breakup, and his colleagues’ crushes. The mystery of Burak’s past heartbreak and his connection to Haya keeps the intrigue alive.

    The series brings a Turkish drama feel, appealing to Gen Z and other age groups. The intense, emotional storytelling and visually striking presentation make it a unique experience. Khushhal Khan’s performance stands out, portraying a heartbroken yet strong character.

    While the 75-second episodes are convenient, they limit storytelling. We hope the over 60 planned episodes will fully develop the plot. The focus on Burak’s interview and past heartbreak could use more variation and advancement.

    Crossroads is directed by Fahad Noor, written by Eric Berg, and features a stellar cast including Khushhal Khan, Mamya Shajaffar, and Simi Raheel.
