Hira Mani and Sami Khan are set to star together in Badar Mehmood’s directorial, produced by Fahad Mustafa. This will be their first project together as a pair. The first shooting schedule is already wrapped up and the team is ready to start their second schedule later this month.
Written by Qaisera Hayat of Alif Allah Aur Insaan fame, the drama also features Sumbul Iqbal and Raqeeb Se actor, Hamza Sohail in pivotal roles. Senior actress Marina Khan has been roped in for a significant role too.
Actress Hira Mani gave a humorous reply to a fan who compared the two in terms of their appearance.
In the comments section of Hira’s picture, a devoted fan couldn’t distinguish if it was really Hira Mani or Bollywood superstar Katrina Kaif.
The fan asked, “Is this Katrina Kaif or Hira Mani?”
Obviously, this was an intentional attempt from the fan by comparing Hira with Katrina to grab her attention on his comment.
Hira’s answer was full of self-confidence and we enjoyed her words a lot.
Hira responded: “Bro Katrina Kaif ki bhi maa. Who is Katrina Kaif? Mujhy kehtey hain Hira Mani” (Bro I am mother of Katrina Kaif. Who is Katrina Kaif? People call me Hira Mani).
Hira is currently being seen in Yun Tu Hai Pyar Bohut on HUM TV.
Friends, colleagues including Ayesha Omar, Neelam Muneer, Sadaf Kanwal, Nomi Ansari, Fouzia Aman, Tabesh Khoji, Zara Noor Abbas and Hira Mani are remembering Zara Abid on her first death anniversary. Zara was one of the passengers on the ill-fated Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight PK 8303 which crashed in Karachi on May 22, 2020, killing at least 97 people. Only two male passengers survived the crash.
Remembering her “beautiful friend” on her first death anniversary, Neelam Muneer prayed Zara attains Jannat e Firdous.
Fellow model, Fouzia Aman shared a collage of black and white pictures of Zara and wrote: “We didn’t realise we were making memories. We just knew we were having fun.”
Hira Mani has reportedly been robbed at gunpoint outside her house in Karachi.
In a video, circulating on social media, two gunmen could be seen snatching something from Mani, who was in the driving seat of her car. It is believed that the actor was mugged outside her house.
Both of Hira’s sons were also present at the scene of the crime and can be seen in the video. Both the robbers, who were on two bikes, left soon after snatching. The good thing was that no one wast hurt.
Armeena Khan on Friday shared a behind-the-scenes video (BTS) from the sets of Mohabbatain Chahatain to highlight mental health issues. Khan’s character in the drama Tara commits suicide in the last episode using a mirror.
“I film an incredibly difficult scene, where my character commits suicide,” said Armeena in the video. “There are several points I wish to make very very quickly.”
“Number one, you are not alone if you are suffering. I don’t want you to suffer, I need you to seek professional help,” says Armeena. “Secondly, women should not pit against each other. You support each other, what’s yours is yours, what’s mine is mine, we should not go after each other’s destinies. We should support each other.”
“Thirdly, suicide is never the answer. I understand we all have demons, but unfortunately my character fails to overcome hers. But this is not the way,” she continued.
Urging those facing issues to seek professional help, Armeena said: “Please stay safe and do not take any of this seriously, because ultimately it is just a TV drama.”
Hira and Mani do not shy away from publicly expressing their love for each. Earlier, Mani had also penned a sweet wish for his wife, calling her “Cinderella”.
Hira and Mani tied the knot in 2008. The couple has two sons together. In an interview with Samina Peerzada, Hira had revealed that she had a big crush on Mani while she was in college and met him through a friend who was dating Mani at the time.
Hira Mani celebrated her birthday in the sweetest way possible. The actor visited Shaukat Khanum on her birthday and celebrated it with young cancer patients.
Taking to her Instagram account Hira shared pictures of the birthday celebrations with young cancer patients and expressed her joy over celebrating a ‘tension less’ birthday.
She also thanked Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital, for making her feel ‘special’ on her birthday.
Maya Ali and Hira Mani have crossed five million followers on Instagram. The actors shared the news and excitement on social media and thanked their fans for the love.
“Thank you for all the five million family,” wrote Maya on social media, adding: “So grateful for all of you, and for all the love and appreciation you guys show me.”
Similarly, Hira Mani, who recently said that she has become anofficial singer, announced that she has crossed five million followers on the social media application.
Sharing a goofy picture of herself, Mani wrote: “Thank you for liking me and liking my Instagram and liking my song and liking my face and liking my kids and liking my originality.”
Meanwhile, Ayeza Khan and Aiman Khan are the most followed Pakistani celebrities on Instagram with 7.9 million followers each. Mahira Khan follows closely behind with 7 million followers.
Remember the iconic scene in which Danish (Humayun Saeed) burst into Shehwar’s (Adnan Siddiqui) office and slapped him in Meray Paas Tum Ho?
Siddiqui, who has recently been sharing his highlights from 2020 on social media, recalled memories of the famous slap scene and revealed what transpired behind the scenes on the sets.
“So I reach the set and see Humayun and Nadeem Baig talking in hushed tones, darting glances at me all this while,” said Adnan while talking about what happened on set while this scene was being shot. “‘Perhaps they sold me off to aliens last night,’ I try to make light of it to myself when they decide to include me in the discussion.”
“Turns out, the matter on hand is much more serious. In the first-ever scene that will commence MPTH, Danish will be slapping Shehwar in his office as his employees look on. ‘Not bad’, I chuckle though both Humayun and Nadeem look nervous about my “seniority” and the close friendship I share with Humayun.”
“Cameras roll and there is pin-drop silence. Danish raises his hand on Shehwar and before we know it, we are rolling into full-throttled guffaws Nadeem included,” he continued. “When Humayun and I are shooting together, especially an intense scene, it is a laugh riot and this couldn’t be an exception. In fact, it became essential to put everyone at ease.”
Concluding his remarks, Adnan said: “I still joke with Nadeem why did he stop at just one slap? For a woman as beautiful as Mehwish, Shehwar would have easily taken a few more.”
Meray Paas Tum Ho also featured Ayeza Khan and Hira Mani in the lead. Written by Khalil ur Rehman Qamar and directed by Nadeem Baig, the drama was produced by Humayun and Shahzad Nasib under their production house Six Sigma Plus.
