    What should a girl go for: Money or looks? Azekah Daniel gives her opinion

    Azekah Daniel, who works as both an actor and a model, recently appeared on the cricket show ‘Har Lamha Purjosh’. She talked about what she likes in men, saying she prefers intelligence and personality over just good looks.

    During the show, she joined in fun activities and answered the host Najeeb-ul-Husnain’s questions.
    When asked about what she thinks is more important in marriage, money or looks, Azekah said, “None, I believe.” She explained, “As far as money is involved, it can be earned by either of the two parties involved or even both together. And about looks, I prefer intellect and personality over it.”

    In response to another question, Azekah said, “Directors, producers, and channels are more important for acting, rather than scripts and co-stars. I have worked with good directors on weak scripts, they either rewrite or execute in such a way which looks visually appealing to the viewers, so it’s all about how you are able to present something to the audience.”

    She also admitted that she sometimes chooses not to work on projects because of certain co-stars she doesn’t want to work with.

    Since the incident went viral on social media, politicians including Interim Prime Minister of Pakistan Anwaar ul Haq Kakar have come forward to condemn the riots. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) the Premier said that strict action would be taken against those who violate the law and target minorities.

    Celebrities in Pakistan like activist and singer Shehzad Roy have taken to social media to condemn the incident and called for justice for the Christian community residing in Jaranwala.

    “If the state does not arrest each and every person involved in it through video footage and make an example, then we are doomed,” tweeted the ‘Laga Re’ singer.

    ‘Kuch Ankahi’ actress Sajal Aly called the violent attack ‘shameful’ and tweeted that there is no place for violence in religion.

    Actress Azekah Daniel slammed the incident as ‘not Jinnah’s Pakistan’ and asked why do people not show the same respect to a church that they demand for a mosque. She also called on mainstream media organisations and journalists of Pakistan to report against the growing ethnic violence against Christians in Pakistan.

    “This is NOT Jinnah’s Pakistan! I strongly condemn this atrocity against the Christian community. Why can’t show some respect for Holy places be it a Church or a Mosque? I stand against these atrocities and unjust acts of violence! I DEMAND JUSTICE FOR ALL”

    “Today we are witnessing the beginning of ethnic cleansing in Pakistan. Pakistani Christians are being persecuted,Church burnt down & the whole colony ablazed,will you raise your voice for us?”
