    Neelum Muneer has a creepy fan story

    Fans can be a blessing for celebrities, offering adoration and love. However, once in a while a fan comes along who’s more creepy than cute.

    The beautiful and talented Neelum Muneer had an encounter with a crazy fan. She revealed a shocking experience on ‘Hasna Mana Hai’, where she exposed a fan who had been pretending to be a girl and talking to her on the phone for a long time.
    The host, Tabish Hashmi, asked Neelum Muneer if she had ever encountered a fan who started off seemingly nice but later turned out to be very obsessive and even scary.

    Neelum Muneer said “It’s really weird, some fans don’t understand what to talk to me about when they meet me. This one fan would call me, pretending to be a girl, and ask to talk to someone else. When I would respond, he would say he had dialed the wrong number. Later, I discovered that the person was a man who had been posing as a girl to talk to me. He had been doing it for a long time. It was so strange and creepy.”

  • Why did Dr Arooba say no to Geo’s drama offer?

    Why did Dr Arooba say no to Geo’s drama offer?

    Dr. Arooba Tariq, television host, recently shared her experience of being offered a lead role in a major Geo TV drama during a podcast with Hafiz Ahmed. She revealed that despite the significant offer, she declined the opportunity due to her father’s disapproval and her own reservations about the intense scenes requiring close physical contact with co-stars.

    “In the media industry, people tend to remember you by your face, especially if you’ve previously appeared on TV shows. As a result, I received a significant offer from Geo TV to play the main lead in a big drama. They genuinely wanted me to be a part of the brilliant ensemble cast of the play.

    In an attempt to convince me to take the job, they even brought me to the studio to experience the set and recording processes. My father, on the other hand, was not into it, so I was limited to hosting. I was still thinking about going to the Shahnoor studio, though. Following this, I came to the conclusion that acting was not for me, especially in light of the dramatic sequences that required close physical contact with co-stars. I declined the opportunity since, as a novice, I would not have any creative control over altering such daring situations.
