Television host Iqrar ul Hassan is known for his show Sar E Aam and having three wives.
During a recent appearance on Wasi Shah’s show, Iqrar and Qurutulain opened up about their relationship and feelings. Qurutulain expressed her confidence in their bond, stating, “I am not an insecure person. I’ve always believed that Iqrar’s love for me will never fade.” She emphasized her trust in him, adding, “I don’t feel the need to check up on Iqrar. Some wives are always trying to check their husbands’ phones, but that’s not something I relate to.”
When questioned about his deepest romantic affections, excluding familial ties, Iqrar responded with certainty, saying, “Everyone knows that I love Annie the most.” He elaborated, “She is my first love, and no one can ever replace her. This is common knowledge among all my relationships.”
Television host Iqrar ul Hassan is known for his show Sar E Aam. The anchor often remains in the news because of his multiple marriages.
Recently, he confirmed his third marriage with Uroosa Khan in a YouTube interview. “I don’t want to talk much about my multiple marriages because our society doesn’t like it. But if people congratulate me, I accept it. I don’t harm any of my wives, and if they’re happy, then it’s not wrong, right? Yes, I know society sees multiple marriages as a bad thing. Not everyone can afford it, and nobody knows my reasons. I don’t share details because my wives have their own lives. I don’t want to make it seem good because then people might copy me.”
Regarding rumors of a fourth marriage, he said, “There are only three, I haven’t heard any rumors about a fourth marriage. Everything is on social media. I share pictures.” He mentioned that his third wife gets along well with his son Pehlaj and that he treats all his wives equally.
He also talked about his wives: Qurat Ul Ain Iqrar is caring and has changed his life, Farah Iqrar is a gift from Allah, and Uroosa Khan brings happiness to his family.
Journalist Iqrar Ul Hassan has revealed how he rejected a proposal from a “top actress” who wanted to become his third wife. The newsman was a guest on Mansoor Ali Khan’s show where he talked about a proposal from a female superstar of Pakistan.
The veteran crime reporter stated, “A lady decided to marry me, a few years ago. She was the most popular actress around four years ago, now she’s married but at that time she was so serious that she donned a bridal outfit and went to both my wives, seeking their permission to marry me. My wives allowed her if we both had agreed. First, she took permission from my wives, and then she came to me, I didn’t refuse because how can one refuse,” the journalist said during the extraordinary revelation.”
Iqrar ul Hasan is currently married to Farah Iqrar and Qurat ul Ain Iqrar.
Continuing with the story, he told Mansoor Ali Khan that the famous actress then started “interrogating me”, asking how many days will he spend with her. “‘How many days will you be with me, how many clothes will be with me, how many books will be with me’, it was at that moment I realized the true worth of my wives Qurat and Farah, because there is nothing of the sort with them. I realized that Allah has given me the two best women,” he said. He disclosed that the said actress is now happily married and he is on good terms with her. “And I would not recommend anyone to marry for the second or third time, because not everyone can get wives like mine”, he said while talking about his domestic life.
Actor Veena Malik took to her Twitter handle to slam journalist Iqrar-ul-Hassan Syed for his recent tweet.
Iqrar recently revealed on Twitter that he has consciously never met and interviewed political personalities in his career. He even mentioned that he snubbed an opportunity of interacting with former Prime Minister Imran Khan.
The veteran journalist concluded by saying that he hopes Imran doesn’t give his next interview to Veena.
The Bigg Boss 4 star immediately tweeted a nasty response. She even made a personal remark about his wives.
Television host and Journalist Syed Iqrar-ul-Hassan’s son Pehlaaj Hassan took to his Instagram to write a short note for his father who was recently attacked.
“The pride of Pakistan, I can proudly say that Mere baba is now on the road to recovery and inshallah will be back on the road soon, Thank you for all your support aur ap sab Dua karte rahe. Pakistan Zindabad,” he wrote in his Instagram post while sharing his father’s picture.
Pictures of Hassan in bloodied, torn-up clothes, receiving medical treatment on a hospital bed started making rounds on social media on Feburary 14. Later, journalist Waseem Badami shared pictures and videos of him visiting Hassan at the hospital.
Talking about the incident, Iqrar said that he and his team members were “stripped naked, blindfolded and tortured for exposing the corruption of an IB inspector”. He alleged that IB officials also shot videos of him after stripping him and his team members naked.
Fahad Mustafa has donated Rs 20 lakh for a Hindu minor boy suffering from thalassemia during a live transmission.
A video recently went viral of a Ramzan live transmission hosted by Waseem Badami and Iqrar-ul-Hasan where JDC Foundation’s Zafar Abbas came along with a Hindu doctor whose minor son was suffering from thalassemia.
During the show, the father told how he has helped everyone and there were times when he treated without taking fees but when he came to know about his son’s deteriorating health, even most of the charitable organizations backed by stating that the charity is for Muslims only.
According to the father, his son has only 15 months left to get proper treatment after that it can get complicated which costs Rs 40 lakh (4 million). He also lamented how there are no basic medical facilities for minorities of Pakistan.
However, during the live show, actor turned producer and now one of the leading game show hosts Fahad Mustafa called and pledged to donate Rs 20 lakh at the very moment. The Jawaani Phir Nahi Aani actor also requested others to donate for the kid to meet the required amount.
When Iqrar asked about the inspiration behind his decision, the actor said: “I don’t know, I don’t usually feel that way. But when I saw him, I had to call. May Allah give him long life and Allah will definitely give long life to this kid.”
Imran Ashraf recently celebrated his son Roham’s second birthday with a star-studded party. Many celebrities including Humayun Saeed, Urwa Hocane, Amar Khan, Iqrar ul Hassan, Feroze Khan and Kinza Hashmi were spotted at the occasion.
According to reports, religious scholar Maulana Tariq Jamil is launching his own clothing brand. The news of the launch of his clothing brand received mixed reactions from the masses with some people criticising Maulana Tariq Jamil for launching his own brand being a religious cleric.
TV anchor, Iqrar ul Hassan, has defended Maulana Tariq Jamil’s decision of launching a clothing brand by saying, “It is learned that Maulana Tariq Jamil or his son has started a clothing brand. Trade is also Sunnah and there is no problem in it according to Shariah.”
He concluded by saying: “I offer my heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to them and ask the critics to come up with a logical or shar’i argument or remain silent.”
خبر ہے کہ مولانا طارق جمیل یا اُن کے صاحبزادے نے کپڑوں کے برانڈ کا آغاز کیا ہے۔ تجارت سنت بھی ہے اور شرعاً اس میں کوئی قباحت بھی نہیں۔ میں دل کی گہرائیوں سے انہیں مبارک باد اور نیک تمنائیں پیش کرتا ہوں اور ناقدین سےگزارش کہ کوئی منطقی یا شرعی دلیل لائیں یا خاموشی فرمائیں
According to some reports, a LinkedIn page with the name of “MTJ – Tariq Jamil” has been created for the soon-to-be-launched brand.
According to the brand’s LinkedIn page, “MTJ being supervised directly by Maulana, is dedicated to weave people’s beliefs and convictions into reality. Provides a garment shopping platform to discover and re-associate with that lost identity that is ingrained in all of us.”
Social media users are demanding an apology from television anchor Syed Iqrarul Hassan for praising India. The Sar-e-Aam host was replying to a tweet that stated that India is the ‘vaccine hub’ of the world.
“India vs Pakistan,” Hassan had written in response to the tweet. “We are not even sure that we ordered the vaccine or not, banana to door ki baat (making it is another story).”
“Muqabla kerna hai to taleem main kerain, science main kerain, khail main kerain, infrastructure main kerain, economy main kerain, technology main kerain … aur such ka samna kerain (If you want to compete, do it on the basis of education, science, sports, infrastructure, economy, technology … and face the truth).”

Hassan then went on to highlight how even Pakistan’s currency is at a much lower value than other developing countries.
بدقسمتی سے ہمارا پاسپورٹ افغانستان اور صومالیہ کے درجے پر ہے، روپیہ بنگلہ دیشی “ٹکے” کے مقابلے ایک روپے نوے پیسے اور بھارتی روپیہ دو روپے بیس پیسے ہے، ہم محنت کرنے، مقابلہ کرنے کی بجائے خود کو پھنے خان سمجھتے ہیں۔ اللہ ہمیں پاکستان کو صحیح معنوں میں “زندہ باد” بنانے کی توفیق دے pic.twitter.com/uf9wvEknwk
Following the backlash, several celebrities, and social media users supported the anchor with the hashtag #WeSupportIqrar trending on social media. Shoaib Akhtar, Kamran Akmal, and Imran Ashraf were among those who came forward to defend the anchor.
Before bashing anyone, one must see the context of whats being said. Love, devotion & dedication of @iqrarulhassan towards our beloved country Pakistan is not even debatable or questionable. #wesupportiqrar#WesupportIQRARULHASSAN
We can’t judge his love & devotion towards his Country by a post it’s just his wish to see a better Transportation system for his own people & his own country nothing wrong in that.Stay strong @iqrarulhassan#WeSupportIqrar
I know one thing about @iqrarulhassan whenever he writes something he completes it with the most precious word PAKISTAN ZINDABAD even his autograph is PAKISTAN ZINDABAD#wesupportiqrar
We should all be thankful to @iqrarulhassan for exposing mafia in his programs, took risks & saved hundreds of lives, mostly girls. Instead, we are calling him XYZ agent & making trends against him. This isn’t acceptable. I stand with IQRAR UL HASSAN. #wesupportiqrar
Sad that while other countries are racing to develop a vaccine for its population, we do not even have the capacity to attempt to make a vaccine.This is because of decades of wrong priorities,its high time we invest in health & education over defence and weapons. #wesupportiqrar
Fahad Mustafa, Yasir Hussain and Iqrar ul Hassan Syed have extended their support to Saba Qamar and Bilal Saeed after they received backlash for shooting part of their upcoming music video at Lahore’s historical Wazir Khan Mosque.
Iqrar ul Hassan requested all his followers to accept Saba and Bilal’s apologies and said that Bilal’s respect in his eyes has increased after his apology message. Fahad later retweeted Iqrar’s tweet and urged everyone to forgive and move on.
Yasir Hussain also extended his support to his Lahore Se Aagay co-star and called out trolls spreading hate.
Shafaat Ali also voiced his support, though he did not explicitly name anyone.
There is a selective hatred against almost all Actors/Singers/Artists in general in Pakistan. People follow them, yet look down upon them. People always love to spew hatred towards them. They just need a chance.
Last weekend, Saba and Bilal found themselves in hot water after they released the teaser of their upcoming music video Qubool Hai. Part of the music video, which has been directed by Saba herself, has been shot inside Wazir Khan Mosque upsetting the public, who demanded strict action be taken against those who allowed the video to be shot inside the mosque.
Chief Minister Punjab Usman Buzdar also took notice of the incident following which the Punjab Auqaf department suspended the manager of Masjid on Sunday. According to reports, the CM sought a report from the minister concerned and the department’s secretary on the matter.
“The mosque is the holiest place and no one can be allowed to trample upon its sanctity. Whosoever is found responsible will not be spared,” an official handout quoted the chief minister as saying.
After severe criticism and backlash, Bilal, in a video message apologised for hurting the public’s sentiments and clarified that they did not dance or record any music in the mosque.
“We realise what has happened over the past few days has hurt your sentiments deeply,” says Bilal in the video. “We as Muslims, as decent human beings and as artists will never, ever trivialize or condone disrespect to Islam or any other religion, race, caste, colour or creed. If we have unknowingly hurt anyone’s sentiments we apologise to you all with all our heart.”
He continued: “Alhamdulilah I am a Muslim and I was raised in a Muslim household. I cannot even think about doing something that would disrespect my religion. I solemnly affirm in the name of Allah that neither did we play any music in the mosque and nor did we dance and the witness to that is the management of the mosque.”
Referring to the clip in which he is twirling Saba, Saeed said: “There was a move that we did for the sake of the photoshoot. We were not following any dance sequence and neither was there any music playing in the background. We understand that we have unintentionally made a mistake and we are acknowledging our mistake.”
“Saba Qamar and I, are just humans like the rest of us and to err is human,” he further said. “As a Muslim, if I was in your place, maybe I would also think the same. So we also apologise to you, and hope that you can let this go. As a realisation on our part, I am also removing the entire sequence from the video, and assure you that we won’t make such mistakes in the near future.”
“I had never imagined my name would be associated with something like this. As a Muslim, I am extremely regretful of this and apologise on behalf of all of us, including Saba and our entire team,” he concluded.
Earlier, Saba had also clarified that “this is also the only sequence that was shot at the historical Wazir Khan Mosque” and is a prologue to the music video.
“The BTS video that’s making rounds on social media was just a circular movement to click stills for the poster of ‘Qubool’ depicting a happily married couple right after their Nikah. Hurting or offending anyone or being disrespectful to a holy place is as unimaginable and unacceptable for me as for any decent human being,” she had said.
