  • Wasim Akram teaching Aussie commentators to pronounce ‘Fakhar’ is the funniest thing you will see

    Wasim Akram teaching Aussie commentators to pronounce ‘Fakhar’ is the funniest thing you will see

    Former Pakistani fast bowling legend Wasim Akram is known for being one of the wittiest men in international cricket. The great bowler once again reinforced his sense of humour in a video that’s going viral.

    In the video, Akram can be seen teaching his fellow Australian commentators how to pronounce the name “Fakhar” – a word that sounds strikingly similar to THAT English swear word.

    The renowned Pakistani pacer, who was a part of the commentary panel during the recently finished Test series between Australia and Pakistan, shared his witty insights and requested the other commentators to pronounce the word ‘Fakhar’, which resulted in a humorous debate.

    On social media, the conversation’s video has become extremely popular. In the video, Akram says, “There’s another name you guys mess up too, try pronouncing Fakhar.”

    Akram’s request made the other two burst into laughter, clearly showing Aussies’ struggle to pronounce the word correctly. Akram went on to share an incident about his Australian wife. “So Shaniera came to Pakistan and my son’s friend’s name was Fakhar. He brought his 12-year-old friend and he said, ‘This is my friend, Fakhar’. She said, ‘Hang on a minute’. Because Australians can’t pronounce khay in their language, it took her about two years to pronounce his name.”

    Akram and the Australian commentators also discussed the amusing incident where the legendary former batsman Mark Waugh struggled to pronounce the name ‘Fakhar Zaman’ during a show.

    The viral video moment occurred during the third and final Test match in Sydney.

    ‘Heartbreaking, important to save myself’: Sana Nawaz announces divorce from Fakhar Jaffri

    Actor Sana Fakhar has officially announced her divorce from her husband Fakhar jaffri after fourteen years of marriage.

    Taking it to her Instagram account, she officially announced the news. Sana wrote: “Breakups hurt. But sometimes breaking a relationship is so mandatory to save yourself to break so much. With all the respect me and Fakhar after several years of marriage through highs and lows decided to take a separate path.”

    “It’s heartbreaking but… I strongly believe that God has better plans for both of us. All the best Fakhar Jaffri, concluded Sana.”

    The duo got married in 2008 and have been together for 14 years. The couple was known to be the most stable couples from the film fraternity. Sana and Fakhar are parents to two sons.

    Last year Sana responded to criticism and backlash she received for sharing a PDA-filled picture with her former husband on his birthday.

    The post in which Sana had wished her husband on his birthday and thanked him “for reminding [her] how butterflies feel like,” had irked the moral brigade who heavily criticised the veteran actor, forcing her to limit the comments section on her post.

    Later, responding to the backlash and hate, Fakhar in an Instagram live video said: “I can understand your pain and agony.”

    “But what is it that you didn’t appreciate?” she continued. “The ‘act’? Or the person I did the said act with? It was too much. But thank you, though. I think criticism is your right. Whatever you wanted to say, you did. But it’s fine.”

    She went on to say that she doesn’t really mind what people thought about the picture.

    “What you say, the kind of words you use, really says a lot about the way you have been brought up. I was called names, abused over a picture. But I received love more than hate.”

    “I do believe that even criticism is a form of love. It’s just a part of life,” Fakhar added.

    The Lollywood heroine went on to say: “Haters don’t exist in my life. I only have love around me. I even have respect for people who discuss anything about me. Whatever you share, please do. I don’t mind. You have that access into my life and I am the one who gave you the said access. We aren’t angels. It’s not the end of the world if you abused me.”

    Sana concluded her live video saying that instead of paying heed to the hate, she has decided to love the people who admire her to be the best version of herself.
