Don’t know why but Sadaf Kanwal appears to hate Mansha Pasha.
On a recent appearance on the talk show BOL Nights with Ahsan Khan, when the host Ahsan Khan asked Sadaf to name one person who shouldn’t be in the industry, Sadaf responded Mansha Pasha.
When Ahsan expressed his shock and asked why, Sadaf replied, “Bas aisay hee.”
Azfar then remarked that this is the rapid-fire segment and Ahsan is trying to make it into “an elaborated fire.”
Ahsan then commented that Mansha is a very good actress. To this Sadaf responded, “I know, I’m also a very good actress.”
Mansha being Mansha couldn’t resist hitting back at Sadaf.
This is not the first time the two have feuded publically.
Late last year, Mansha had taken to Twitter to comment that the women in the industry “need to step up and learn to speak better.” In case you didn’t know, Mansha was referring to Hira Mani (“From stole my husband from my best friend and cheated on my fiancee”), Sadaf Kanwal (“Jab Me Too hota hai ussi waqt kiyon nahi boltein”) and Momina Mustehsan (“Quotes from Uncle Ben and your friendly neighbourhood spider-man”).
From stole my husband from my best friend and cheated on my fiancee, to jab Me Too hota hai ussi waqt kiyon nahi boltein, to quotes from Uncle Ben and your friendly neighbourhood spider-man.
The women of this industry need to step up and learn to speak better.
Sadaf hit back at Mansha by taking a dig at Pasha’s dressing style.
In response to Sadaf, Mansha posted the following tweet:
While we are all learning about clothes, makeup, hair and how to take perfect selfies, lets also learn how to talk about REAL issues that matter in the REAL world.
As public figures, lets not reduce ourselves merely to the clothes on our back and use our voice for good.
The Pakistani drama scene is currently very lit with new and interesting dramas hitting our TV screens. Here are the dramas that have caught our attention.
Meray Paas Tum Ho
Humayun Saeed, Ayeza Khan and Adnan Siddiqui’s latest blockbuster has an interesting storyline and the first three episodes have us hooked.
Sanam Baloch and Ali Rehman Khan’s Khaas focuses on the troubles of a married couple and highlights mental abuse in a relationship. It is safe to say that the drama’s storyline is fresh and realistic which makes you want to tune into it every week.
Gul o Gulzar
The drama’s plot focuses on the life of two opposite friends Gul and Gulzar. Saboor Aly who plays the cunning, manipulative Gul has given a brilliant performance and we can’t praise her enough.
Bewafa
Bewafa hasn’t hit the TV screens yet, but it is set to air from this Monday. From the teasers, we can tell that the drama will be a love triangle in which Ali Rehman Khan will have two wives.
Kismat
One episode down, Minal Khan’s latest drama on Hum TV seems typical but we think it’s going to be pretty masalaydaar. The first episode has crossed 1 million views already.

Hasan Minhaj has been creating waves ever since his Netflix show Patriotic Act started streaming on Netflix. Which is why Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau decided to do an exclusive interview with the comedian only months before the federal election in Canada. It was definitely a risk considering Minhaj’s unfiltered opinions and sharp political commentary. Trudeau is the only Prime Minister ever to be interviewed by Minhaj.
Hence it comes as almost no surprise that the Canadian premiere was roasted by Minhaj.
The interview started off very gently, with Minhaj paying Trudeau a few compliments and praising some of Trudeau’s greatest public relations hits, including his gender-balanced cabinet, his welcoming stance towards refugees, and his stated dedication to combating climate change.
However, things take a turn when Minhaj begins to question, Trudeau’s contradicting views and actions.
During the interview, Minhaj touches on Trudeau’s global reputation as a ‘progressive politician’, but then goes on to ask Trudeau about Canadians opposing the entry of more refugees, and the selling of arms to Algeria, Nigeria, Libya and Iraq. Minhaj even brings in Canada’s trade with Saudi Arabia and asks Trudeau to stop selling arms to them, pointing out that Canada has condemned that country for its involvement in the death of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Trudeau responds by saying Canada takes breaking contracts and its legal responsibilities seriously.
Minhaj then presses him about Canada’s Trans Mountain pipelines, asking why Canada pretends to be a leader in the fight against climate change when it still has the third largest reserve of oil in the world?
Trudeau responds to this by attempting to explain the country’s need for oil and pipelines, to which Minhaj simply says, “What you’re saying sounds like trying to whiten your teeth by drinking wine at every meal.”
If Trudeau had not been ‘roasted’ enough already, Minhaj also explains the SNC-Lavalin scandal saying that Trudeau has broken several of his election promises.
Minhaj also brings up Quebec’s new secularism bill and tries to get Trudeau to recite the Kalma Shahada. Quebec’s new law has banned people from wearing religious symbols, such as turbans or hijabs while working in the public sector.
On this Trudeau responded, “I disagree with it. A government shouldn’t be telling anyone what they should or shouldn’t wear in a free society, so I strongly disagree with that. I have been very clear that in a free society you cannot legitimize discrimination against someone based on their religion.”
However, the problem is that Trudeau hasn’t done anything about the deeply discriminatory law.
The whole thing wasn’t very pretty for Trudeau but a lot of Canadians are happy that the PM was called out for his contradictions.
“I understand, we all love Canada — I know it,” says Minhaj in the end. “None of you guys wanted to hear any of this. I might as well have done a 20-minute takedown of Tom Hanks. But there are realities about Canada and Trudeau that we cannot ignore. … Political pragmatism has to reckon with the reality of climate change.”
A TikTok video of Punjab government’s spokesperson and ex-information minister Fayyazul Hasan Chohan went viral on social media, showing him and two girls laughing while asking him a question.
Since then, people had been asking who the two girls were as the video was followed by their pictures with Pakistan Terheek-e-Insaf (PTI) stalwarts, including Jehangir Tareen, Shah Mahmood Qureshi and even Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan.
WATCH VIDEO:
To address netizens’ curiosity, Hareem Shah and Sundal Khattak were invited by a private media outlet, speaking to which they shared how they were big fans of the PTI, how they had gone to meet Chohan for an official concern and then recorded the video.
They also shared how they want to meet Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and record a TikTok video with him as well.
After a long battle on social media, Fatima Sohail, the estranged wife of actor-singer Mohsin Abbas Haider has filed for khula in a family court in Lahore.
According to reports, Fatima made her case on grounds of domestic abuse and infidelity. Fatima requested to the court to approve her plea for khula and issue a decree in the matter.
Meanwhile, Mohsin took to social media to express his joy on this development.
In an explosive account posted to social media on July 21 Fatema had come forward with accusations of cheating and domestic abuse against the actor-singer. Fatema alleged that in November 2018, she caught Mohsin cheating on her and when she confronted him, “instead of being embarrassed he started beating” her even though she was pregnant at that time. Luckily her child survived and Fatema said that she moved past the incident for the sake of her child. She continued that her childbirth was a complicated process but Mohsin never supported her and was instead, busy having an affair with an emerging model, Nazish Jahangir.
On August 28, a lower court in Lahore found Mohsin guilty of threatening his wife.
TV anchor Juggun Kazim in a heartbreaking post on social media opened about her recent miscarriage and how she was fat-shamed while being pregnant.
Juggun shared that she was recently pregnant but did not share it because her pregnancies have “generally been precarious.” Because of which she put on weight really quickly. But what surprised her was the reactions of the people who assumed that she had gained weight and proceeded to fat-shame her.
Juggun further revealed that a week ago she miscarried. And when she returned to work someone again commented on how she was looking “extra healthy.”
Juggun requested everyone to stop fat-shaming other people, or even commenting on their body, because they don’t know what the other person is going through.
Momina Mustehsan has a famous new fan across the border.
Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, popular for playing Ganesh Gaitonde on Netflix’s Sacred Games, has revealed that he loves Momina and Asim Azhar’s Coke Studio song Tera Woh Pyaar.
Responding to a question on Arbaaz Khan’s show Quick Heal Pinch, Nawazuddin shared that he has a habit of listening to songs while shooting his films before saying that he used to listen to “Maimoona Mustehsan’s”Tera Woh Pyaar during the shoot of Manto. He added that he would listen to the song before every scene of the film.
Asim who sang this duet with Momina expressed his excitement at this by sharing the video on his Instagram account with the caption, “When your favorite actor listens to your song every day.”
Two episodes in, ARY’s latest offering Meray Pass Tum Ho is being discussed everywhere – from Whatsapp groups to Facebook groups. ARY knew they had a hit on their hands with Humayun Saeed, Ayeza Khan and Adnan Siddiqui in the main roles. And this isn’t your run of the mill saas/bahu drama.
The story begins with a happily married Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) who live within a government officer’s means. They have a son who isn’t going to a good school because of lack of finances. Danish is smitten by his wife and is willing to do everything and anything to make her happy. Mehwish, on the other hand, is materialistic and wants expensive jewellery because her friend Anushay (Meher Bano) is loaded and she wants to be too. To make Mehwish happy, Danish gives up his morals and resorts to corruption, because as the man he must give her what she wants.
So Danish turns to becoming a corrupt government official and getting lakh, two lakh rupee kickbacks to buy his wife jewellery so she can compete with her richer friend Anushay. In walks, Anushay’s husband’s boss Shahwaar (Adnan Siddiqui) who is a ladies man, has a wife who lives abroad, travels a lot with his secretaries and has a Prado.
The Kabab mai haddi
At the end of the second episode, we kind of know what’s coming. Mehwish, entranced by Shahwaar’s good lucks, dashing smile and above all, money, money, money is going to flutter towards him, and Danish, getting a feeler of Shahwaar’s interest in his wife asks her to stay away from such a “loose” character.
The moment when they spot Shahwaar together
The actors are great and the story is realistic. The script has been penned by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar while Nadeem Baig has directed this – both masters of their games. The lust for money taking over a genuinely loving marriage happens – to both men and women and it seems the drama might be taking that interesting route. Let’s see how it goes since the twist is bound to be epic.
Acclaimed playwright Khalil ur Rehman Qamar (Pyaare Afzal, Meray Paas Tum Ho) is all set to make a comedy film on the fallen Indian pilot Abhinandan with Shamoon Abbasi in the lead.
The film titled Abhinandan Come On will release February 27, 2020, the same day on which the Pakistan Air force had shot down MIG-21 of the Indian Airforce. Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman was captured by the Pakistani forces in Azad Kashmir.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the border, Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi (who played Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his last venture) is producing a film titled Balakot. The film is also based on the same events and is expected to show Abhinandan as a war hero.
