    The latest to come in the line of fire is newlyweds Hina Altaf and Agha Ali. In a video clip going viral on social media, Hina and Agha shared that at the time of their marriage, the only promise that Agha took from Hina was that she will never get fat or gain weight. The clip is from an Eid Special Show (1:15:07 onwards) of Yasir’s Good Morning Pakistan in which Hina and Altaf appeared for the first time as a married couple.

    While talking to the host, Agha and Hina were sharing snippets about their married life, when the topic moved towards food and gymming. When the two shared that they are both foodies, Nida asked if they have a tendency to gain weight.

    In response, Agha said: “At the time of our wedding, I only took one promise from Hina.”

    “Please moti mat hona (Don’t gain weight),” chimed in Hina while laughing. She added that whenever she is eating and Agha walks by, he remarks, “Bas eik hee wada liya tha (I only took one promise).”

    Hina joked that she took the same promise because it is a difficult one to fulfill. The trio then discussed how Agha is looking slimmer and that Hina will soon work on losing weight.

    Soon after the clip went viral, social media users called out the couple for promoting fatphobia and unrealistic beauty standards. They also criticised the actors of being “tone-deaf” and passing problematic statements.

  • Hina Altaf, Agha Ali sued by a producer for fraud

    Hina Altaf, Agha Ali sued by a producer for fraud

    Hina Altaf and Agha Ali have been sued by TV producer Nousheen Agha for cheating her and running away with her money. On her petition, a local court ordered an FIR to be registered against the production team for alleged fraud and theft of valuables.

    The case will be registered against Hina, Agha, director production Sohail Iftikhar Khan, and production manager Gul Zaib Nawaz under sections of Pakistan Penal Code related to fraud for violating the contractual obligations and abandoning the television serial halfway.

    According to reports, Nosheen had paid Rs1.45 million to the actress, actor and production team for producing a television serial for Pakistan Television.

    In her written complaint, Agha alleged that under the contract she signed with the television actors and production team they were supposed to work for the television drama from November 3 to 23 as she had booked rooms for them in guest houses of sector F-6 and F-7 in Islamabad.

    However, on November 16, Hina and Ali, who were cast as the lead in the project titled Dil-e-Sarkash, abandoned the set without any prior notice and also took away Rs12 million which the complainant had paid as their remuneration for their work. The next day on November 17, Sohail Iftikhar and Gul Zaib Nawaz also ran away along with drama script, contract agreement, video shoots and other valuable items.

    Nousheen claimed that because of this she had suffered an enormous financial loss and mental stress.

    Meanwhile, both Hina and Agha have refuted these allegations, with Hina claiming that she has screenshots to prove her innocence.

    “No one has left the shooting spell. There were at least more than 40 people on the set including the actors, DOPS, technical staff and other crew members who were not paid on time. Everyone gave her a favor and we all kept working till the situation got worsened,” Agha claimed.

    Hina said: “Nothing of this sort has happened – and I have screenshots of my conversation with her which I can reveal to media when is needed.”

    Hina Altaf reveals the actor she hates doing romantic scenes with

    Hina Altaf has often found herself in the middle of a controversy.

    The actor recently appeared on the first episode of talk show To Be Honest hosted by stand up comedian Tabish Hashmi. The show’s format is based on honesty and the host extracts some hard truths from the guests under the disguise of witty and fun banter.

    When asked by the host about her favourite actor when it comes to doing romantic scenes, Hina was quick to reply Emaad Irfani. However, at the same time she also went on to express her annoyance at co-actor Faisal Rehman’s behaviour during romantic scenes.

    “I’ve done a romantic scene with Emmad Irfani and I got carried away,” revealed Hina.

    She continued, “Romantic scenes tend to be challenging with Faisal Rehman. ‘Yahan ungli pakarni hogee, woh banda hath pakr lega’  (Scenes that need just holding fingers, he tends to grab the whole arm). I have to keep my guard up always. I even scared him once by saying ‘Me Too’. After this he kept his distance,” the actor giggled.

    Hina and Faisal have been part of two dramas: Aatish and Gumrah.

    In an interview last year, Faisal had said that “Hina and I have become great friends actually. We started off badly, as she has a lot of anger. But we’ve been great friends since Gumrah (2017) and we’re still friends, and I still want to keep working with her.”

    Hina also shared her experience with TV host Aamir Liaquat. According to her, Liaquat has a tendency to spit while speaking. Recalling the experience when she met Liaquat on his game show, Hina talked about how intense he gets while speaking.

    “Whenever he talks, spit drips from his mouth. When he talks loudly I feel that the seat will break. Beside that I like him and respect him,” Hina remarked.

    Hina also discussed how social media at times tends to throw things out of proportion and revealed the kind of messages she gets on social media.
