Naumaan Ijaz has delivered countless outstanding performances in popular Pakistani dramas. Recently, a clip from the show ‘Meer Means Business’ has been circulating online, featuring the actor discussing current Pakistani television dramas. In the clip, he expressed concerns about the serials destroying the importance of relationships and expressed a desire to ban them.
“If I were in charge of the censor board, I’d ban all dramas because they ruin relationships. They disgrace relationships, and it’s sad that people don’t speak out against such negative content. The makers depict every relationship as evil, which influences society negatively. The drama ‘Nand’ gained popularity by portraying a sister-in-law as evil. I prefer dramas with moral lessons. Also, I personally censor certain dialogues.”
In an interview with journalist Aamna Haider Isani, Actor Sanam Saeed spoke about changing times and factors leading to increased divorces in the country. She said, “Today, women are more financially independent and aware of their rights, in the past, they mostly depended on men for financial support and often lacked other sources of support, even in toxic relationships. Now, women stand up for themselves, they don’t need to stay, if the marriage is not working.” Saeed is married to actor Mohib Mirza.

Yashma Gill defends game nights, exercise in Ramzan, urges personal worship During Ramzan, the trend of game nights became increasingly popular among celebrities. Some engaged in physical sports such as badminton and tennis, while others played board games before Sehri.
This trend gained momentum rapidly, with game nights being organised at what seemed to be, a regular basis. Actor Yashma Gill attended these game nights and even hosted one during the Ramzan. After she was criticised for being a part of these events, Yashma has now responded to comments.
Gill said, “During Ramzan, we stay up until Sehri and also engage in worship, so game nights are a good idea. Physical activity is important for health. People who criticize us should focus on their own worship instead of commenting on our activities. We also engage in worship, but along with that, there’s a bit of physical activity. We have more time, so we adjust our shooting schedules accordingly.”

Recently, Bushra Ansari posted a vlog on her YouTube channel discussing her second marriage to Iqbal Hussain. In the vlog, she introduced her husband to her YouTube followers, who had expressed concerns about her being lonely. Bushra Ansari and Iqbal Hussain also talked about a stigma in Eastern society where marrying an older woman is seen as wrong.
Bushra Ansari said “Iqbal Hussain proposed to me while we were shooting for Seeta Bhagri. He said, ‘Since we both live alone, we should get married.’ Marrying him was a tough decision for me. Even though I had been divorced, I never announced it. It took me a year and a half to decide to marry someone younger than me. He had been divorced long before me.”
Iqbal Hussain said, “Bushra Ansari’s family and friends helped me make this decision. They convinced her because Bushra wasn’t agreeing to it. Sumbul Apa, Neelum Aapa, Asma Abbas’s husband, all supported us greatly. Bushra Ansari also mentioned that Rubina Ashraf, Behroze Sabzwari, Badar Khalil, Sultana Siddiqui, and all her friends supported our decision. We also told our kids, who are abroad, about our decision to move forward in life, and they are happy about it.”
Iqbal Hussain stated, “If two people have the option and there are no family clashes, they should choose marriage without making it a big deal. Additionally, society should normalize marrying an older lady.”
