    Mani and Hira, a well-known couple in the entertainment industry, have been making waves with their talents and love for each other.

    Recently, Mani was invited as a guest on ‘Mazaq Raat’ hosted by Imran Ashraf.

    “You are an artistic writer and involved in direction, and Hira is an artist. How easy or difficult is it for two artists with different styles to work together?” Ashraf asked.

    Mani replied, “It’s easy because this is what we do in my family. We all work in this field; my father, even my sister, has worked in theatre.”

    The host then asked about their love marriage.

    “In our love marriage, we have a big fight every two weeks. I think it’s a very normal thing, and if you survive those fights, that’s when your marriage works,” Mani said.

    Salman Saqib Shaikh, aka Mani, married Hira on 18 April 2008. The couple has been working in the entertainment industry for 20 years.

    ‘Auto-tune’: Shiraz Uppal’s comments on Hira Mani’s singing

    Veteran musician Shiraz Uppal has stirred up buzz by claiming that actress Hira Mani uses auto-tune in her singing. Shiraz was invited as a guest on ‘Mind Na Karna’ hosted by Ahmed Butt. The host asked about Hira Mani singing abilities.
    Shiraz Uppal said, “I think she’s a fantastic actress, but as for her singing skills, I can make anyone sound like her using auto-tune in my studio.”

    Taking about Hira Mani vocal abilities, he said, “Being a composer and singer, I would judge her seeing that performance.”
    Uppal recently found himself in controversy after he said he trained Atif Aslam and Aima Baig. However, he clarified that he had guided A-list performers like Atif Aslam and Aima Baig to enhance their vocals and tonality, assessing their potential as singers.

    Shiraz said, “I never said I taught them how to sing. People misunderstood me. They are very talented singers. I discussed that as a music producer and singer, I understand the expression I need from vocalists for my compositions. So, I guide them on pronunciation, tone of voice, and expression. However, this doesn’t mean I mentored them in singing.”
