    Adnan Siddiqui talks about Humayun Saeed’s funny comment on his roles 

    The dynamic duo of Pakistani television, Humayun Saeed and Adnan Siddiqui, consistently captivate audiences with their on-screen chemistry.  

    Recently the two A-listers appeared as guests on ‘Fuchsia Magazine’, where both discussed professional insecurities. 
    “Adnan used to quietly take the good roles,” Humayun said.

    Adnan responded by explaining, “If there are three production houses, I pick the role I want from the one that isn’t Humayun’s. At Humayun’s production house, they choose the role for me. Despite this, we never felt insecure or jealous professionally. There was never any bitterness in our relationship. We never thought like that.”  

    While talking about Meray Paas Tum Ho,
    Saeed said, “I create dramas for the people, with characters that reflect Pakistani society. Mere Paas Tum Ho showcased middle-class life and achieved unprecedented ratings in the Pakistani drama industry. MPTH had an unmatched impact and became extremely famous. Mehwish’s character wasn’t presented negatively; any lady in her circumstances has the right to move on. In my opinion, I would have acted similarly. Danish was not he right partner since, as a character, he did not satisfy his wife’s desires. I became sympathetic to Danish by the end.”  

    Humayun and Adnan have worked together in dramas like Ishq Junoon, Deewangi, Mehndi, and Mere Paas Tum Ho.  Currently, there are starring in Gentleman, which airs on Green Entertainment’s every Sunday at 8:00 p.m.

  • ‘We decided on divorce at the dinner table’: Hiba Ali opens up about her marriage

    ‘We decided on divorce at the dinner table’: Hiba Ali opens up about her marriage

    Divorce can be a very emotional journey filled with unexpected challenges and personal reflections.

    Recently, actress Hiba Ali appeared as a guest on ‘Fuchsia Magazine’. She talked about the emotional journey of her unplanned divorce, her struggle with depression, and the challenges of her child custody case.

    “For me, it was always unexpected. I wanted to stay with my husband because he was the father of my son, and I hoped for a relationship built on understanding,” said Hiba Ali when discussing her divorce.

    She explained that he was “a good person” but they struggled with understanding each other on basic issues.

    “He was educated, and I considered myself sensible; we couldn’t afford to argue over small things every day,” she explained.

    “We decided on divorce at a dinner table,” she revealed.

    Hiba Ali said she was “shocked” after the custody case as her former husband believed that she had distanced their son from him while he was in Canada.

    “Ultimately, it was our child’s choice whether to communicate with his father or not. We reached a compromise on the custody case outside of court because I didn’t want to give in easily. I told him he would only be wasting his money.”

    However, she feels conflicted about the decision.

    “Looking back, I wonder if marrying was a mistake or if I should not have divorced at all,” she said.

    Hiba Ali is currently starring in the drama serials ‘Shiddat’ and ‘Jaan Nisar.’

  • ‘Marriage is very important but not the end game’: Sajal Aly

    ‘Marriage is very important but not the end game’: Sajal Aly

    Powerhouse Sajal Aly is an inspiration to many fans, not just for her performances but also for being remarkably level headed.

    The actress recently gave an interview to Fuchsia Magazine at the launch event of Zard Patton Ka Bun. The conversation turned to society’s expectations, and Sajal did not hold back.

    “Marriage is often pitched as the endgame for a woman in our society, but that’s not the truth. Marriage can be a beautiful and important part of a woman’s life, but it’s not the ultimate goal. What marriage should be is a support system, and that’s only possible if you find a supportive partner. A woman should always seek independence through education and never lose her sense of self.”

    She also shared that, unlike her character Meenu, she never dreamed of becoming a doctor when she grew up. ‘I like always, connected deeply with the character of Meenu and loved being a part of a socially relevant show. Meenu’s story is so important, and I felt honored to bring it to life,” she remarked.

    The toughest part of the show for her? Surprisingly, riding the bicycle. “The bike was too big and I fell down a few times. I was scared and hurt, but I didn’t give up,” she said.

  • Talat Hussain’s daughter opens up about father’s dementia diagnosis

    Talat Hussain’s daughter opens up about father’s dementia diagnosis

     

    Tazeen Hussain, the daughter of veteran actor Talat Hussain, has opened up about the family’s struggle with her esteemed father’s dementia.

     

    During an appearance on ‘Gup Shup with FUCHSIA’, she shared that her father is suffering from dementia now and asked for prayers.

     

    She talked about the difficulties her mother had to go through after her father’s diagnosis. Her mother used to be a full-time professor and a highly independent woman, but she is now the celebrated actor’s primary caregiver, with help from the entire family.

     

    She said that, “My father’s doctor advised me to care for my mother too and ask her how she is feeling as well.”

     

    Talking about how our behaviours towards medical conditions have changed, Tazeen said “When I was a kid, I saw older family members with dementia, but back then, people didn’t know what it was called. They were treated normally, and families just adjusted to their condition. Nowadays, people become more clinical when diagnosing this, and we need to return to some of the old ways of dealing with it.”

    Mohammad Ahmed, Shamim Hilaly say you might regret waiting until 45 to find love

    Veteran actors Mohammad Ahmed and Shamim Hilaly, known for their brilliant performances, recently spoke to Fuchsia about the changing dynamics of marriages, discussing disparities between modern marital unions and those of the past.
    “People often think they don’t need anyone in their life and they’ll always be young, but things change,” both stars emphasized. “When you turn 45, you start to realize the importance of having a life partner.”

    Ahmed pointed towards rising divorce rates and said, “Couples nowadays are unwilling to compromise on anything and fail to give each other enough time to understand and adjust. Television plays a role in normalizing divorces, portraying the idea that one can easily divorce and marry someone else the next day, which is not realistic. Recently, many showbiz couples have divorced, and this trend is increasing.”

  • Who are these people who get ready, go to restaurants to take pictures: Momina Iqbal reveals social media traps

    Who are these people who get ready, go to restaurants to take pictures: Momina Iqbal reveals social media traps

    Momina Iqbal has advised people not to trust what they see on social media about famous people’s lives, stressing that it’s often fake.

    The actress appeared as a guest on a TV show during Ramazan.
    During the interview, she said that what famous people show on social media about their daily lives isn’t always true.
    She asked fans and social media users not to believe everything they see online.

    “I was talking to my friend the other day and I said, ‘Who are these people who wake up in the morning, get ready, and go to restaurants to take pictures?’ I’m discussing something overall here that’s going on in our social media. They get ready, take pictures, and post them. We don’t even wake up in the morning; we just keep sleeping. I mean, if it’s my day off, I just stay in bed and read. If I feel like getting up, then I want to tell everyone that social media isn’t what you all are seeing. I also receive a lot of messages. Sometimes, I post pictures from last week, and no one knows what’s going on.”

    Momina emphasized that social media isn’t what people think it is. “It’s not the reality of the present moment. Anything people see us doing at home or seeing other people doing is sometimes taken in a negative way. Like, how much fun are they really having in their lives? But what we see filled with joy isn’t necessarily true. We also just sit at home and read.”

I believe it’s essential for women to be financially independent along with having some skill and education.”
