In a significant legal development, Rawat Police have registered a fraud case against renowned film star Javed Sheikh and five other individuals, as reported by express.pk. Filed under Section 420 of the Pakistan Penal Code, the charges allege that the accused deceived a couple into investing Rs5 million with promises of lucrative returns.
The case was filed following the directives of the Additional District and Sessions Judge. Police have summoned all the suspects for investigation. According to the complaint filed by Amjad Mahmood and his wife, Iram Amjad, Javed, along with Jahanzeb Alam, Jamal Khan, Rana Zahid, Azhar Hussain, and Sameer Jadoon, persuaded them to invest money, promising a seven percent monthly profit.
The couple signed an agreement on official stamp papers and handed over Rs5 million. However, after several months, they did not receive any returns and were allegedly threatened when they demanded their money back. The couple approached the court after the police initially refused to register their complaint.
Veteran film star Javed Sheikh has talked about his past marriage with singer Salma Agha and called it the ‘bad period’ of his life. The two were married in the 90s, becoming one of the most glamorous couples of the time. The marriage ended on a sour note.
Javed Sheikh finally opened up about the marriage, stating feeling guilty and regretful about it, during a recent appearance on ‘Subh Ka Samaa’ Madeha Kay Sath.
The A-lister discussed his first marriage to Zeenat Mangi and how his children, actors Momal and Shehzad Sheikh, were affected by the separation until he got remarried to Salma Agha. “I didn’t want to separate from my first wife, but it happened. My children, Shehzad and Momal, went through a lot because of it. They were away from me for three years while I was married to Salma Agha,” Sheikh explained sadly.
Calling his divorce his biggest regret, Sheikh said, “It shouldn’t have happened, and I wish it didn’t. Even though our family was broken, my kids stayed strong, thanks to their mom. She deserves credit for keeping our family close, despite the separation. She made sure the kids spent time with me on family days.”
“My kids, Saleem’s kids, Behroz, and my other siblings’ kids would gather at my house in Lahore,” the veteran remembered fondly.
Javed Sheikh and Behroze Sabzwari have been acting since decades yet both the veteran actors are still fit as a fiddle. The two have been friends since long and their friendship got stronger when Behroze Sabzwari married Javed Sheikh’s sister Safina.
The two recently appeared on The Knock Knock Show, hosted by Mohib Mirza. They talked about how they stay fit and shared advice for people who want to have successful careers in acting. Javed Sheikh said, “Staying fit is something we can control. We make a lot of effort, watch what we eat, and avoid thinking negatively about others. I count my calories from breakfast to dinner and skip lunch so I’m really hungry by dinner time.” Behroze Sabzwari added that he eats everything but in small amounts. Javed Sheikh also mentioned that he enjoys eating traditional Pakistani foods like paaye. When it comes to being successful, Javed Sheikh had some advice for young actors: “I tell everyone, ‘if you want to reach high, stay grounded’. And for young actors, I advise three things: passion, patience, and punctuality.”
We knew Shah Rukh is the badshah of Bollywood but did you know, even Lollywood actors love him?
Veteran actor Javed Sheikh recently shared that on the set of the movie ‘Om Shanti Om,’ he made a request to Shah Rukh Khan, which was promptly fulfilled.
Discussing his collaboration with Shah Rukh Khan, Javed Sheikh said, “Shah Rukh Khan was my ‘smoking buddy’ during the filming.” He explained that during the shoot of ‘Om Shanti Om,’ there were two rules on the set – no photography and no smoking. Special arrangements were made for Shah Rukh Khan, with a table and an ashtray for cigarettes. Recalling his interaction with the Bollywood king on set, Javed Sheikh said, “When I met Shah Rukh Khan during the film shoot, he hugged me and offered assistance, saying, ‘If you need anything on the set, let me know.’ I expressed my preference for smoking and explained that I have to go out for it. Upon my request, Shah Rukh Khan immediately arranged for a table and placed an ashtray.”
‘Om Shanti Om’ was released in 2007, featuring actress Deepika Padukone alongside Shah Rukh Khan.
Australian-born philanthropist Shaniera Akram is making her film debut with ‘Money Back Guarentee’ which also stars her husband Wasim Akram and Fawad Khan as the main leads. The supporting cast of the movie include Ayesha Omar, Javed Sheikh, Gohar Rasheed among others.
Akram opened up about why she chose to act in the film, revealing that the director Faisal Qureshi had reached out to her and her husband with the script:
‘The director of the film reached out to me and Wasim about whether we would like to take part in his film, and then when he sent us the script, I found it to be incredibly funny and excellent. After that, we both agreed to take part in the project.”
Akram also talked about the kind of role she would be playing in ‘Money Back Guarentee’:
“I have a neutral character in this film. I play an American woman who, along with some other Americans, comes to Pakistan… I am not allowed to talk about my role in the film, but I had a lot of fun playing this part.”
Akram revealed that she loved acting and would like to do more films in the future, as well as write stories for Pakistani cinemas:
“I will definately keep on acting in the future because i loved this role, and I enjoy performing in front of the camera. I think i would love to play more challenging roles ahead. I would like to do more roles where speaking Urdu is a requirement, I have a really good memory so I can memorize dialogues and speak them in a better manner. I would need to take guidance from a coach as well…I would love to write a few stories, I have a few amazing ideas for Pakistani cinemas. But I would love to act in a role which would reflect my experience of staying in Pakistan, especially when I came to this country for the first time. I think this would be quite an interesting.”
Akram revealed she was nervous about how Pakistani audiences would respond to seeing her on the screen, adding:
“I’m not sure if Pakistani audiences would be willing to see me on television screens. I can only find out after they watch me in my first film.”
The Mumbai Police have detained Bollywood star Rakhi Sawant in a case filed by model and actor Sherlyn Chopra.
Rakhi Sawant and Sherlyn Chopra have been at loggerheads for quite some time. It all began to make headlines when Sawant supported #MeToo accused Sajid Khan’s entry into the Bigg Boss 16 house which was opposed by the latter. Their war of words aggravated when Ms. Chopra filed a complaint against Sawant at Juhu Police station. Now in the latest development of their catfight, the Krazzy 4 actress has been detained by the Mumbai Police.
Chopra took to Twitter to share the breaking news of Rakhi Sawant’s arrest. Sherlyn wrote, “Breaking News!!! Amboli Police has arrested Rakhi Sawant in respect of FIR 883/2022 yesterday, Rakhi Sawant’s ABA 1870/2022 was rejected by Mumbai Sessions Court.” She shared the same Tweet in Hindi too. For the unversed Chopra filed a police complaint against Rakhi Sawant for showing her explicit videos to the media.
BREAKING NEWS!!!
AMBOLI POLICE HAS ARRESTED RAKHI SAWANT IN RESPECT WITH FIR 883/2022
YESTERDAY, RAKHI SAWANT’S ABA 1870/2022 WAS REJECTED BY MUMBAI SESSIONS COURT
— Sherlyn Chopra (शर्लिन चोपड़ा) (@SherlynChopra) January 19, 2023
Earlier speaking about her complaint against Rakhi, Sherlyn Chopra told a section of media that Rakhi Sawant had earlier mentioned in her interview that she will hit Sherlyn, or kill her. According to our constitution, nobody has a right to send death threats. Her legal team then filed a complaint under the IPCs 499 (Defamation), 500 (Punishment for Defamation), 509 (Word, gesture and act intended to insult the modesty of a woman), and 503 (Criminal Intimidation) the complaint is filed in Juhu Police Station, Sherlyn had said.
Actor Momal Sheikh recently made an appearance on The Talk Talk Show hosted by Hassan Choudary, where she shared her thoughts on Behroze Sabzwari’s claim that ladies shouldn’t wear tight clothing while traveling on bikes.
The Daraar star said, “it is his point of view, maybe it was something he observed while he was coming to the interview and he expressed his thoughts, Maybe it was something that stuck in his mind and he wanted to talk about it, whenever we come to the show we don’t talk the scripted things, we speak our heart out, so I can give him the benefit of doubt, maybe it was something disturbing him, hence he said it, so people should move on and let it go, and if anything needs to be requested, it should come from Behroze Sabzwari rather than me.”
On being asked about the public’s perception of her clothing, Sheikh replied she couldn’t influence anyone’s opinions or change their minds, so she should just let it be and do whatever she wanted. In the end, the public makes you famous.
Last year she stated in another interview that she is not afraid of her father (Javed Sheikh) but she is scared of her brother Shahzad Sheikh.
“I’m not scared of my father but I am scared of Shahzad,” said Momal while talking to Momina on her show Momina Mixed Plate.
She said that he is a little bossy and asks questions. “Even coming to this field, he said that tumhara kya kaam hai? Tum ne kyun karna hai?“
While talking about his protective behaviour, she further elaborated: “It’s just that he is a little protective to her little sister, not that he really don’t want me to work, of course, it’s not that. Uska ek roub hai, bharam hai like I want her to be under me, and islie bhi kyunkay mein argue bhi bohat karti houn.”
She said, “Sometimes I say that to him If I were your elder sister then you would see.”
Last year the Happy Bhaag Jayegi diva appreciated her cousin Shahroz Sabzwari and Syra Yousuf for handling social media scrutiny post their split, “The way Shahroz and Saira handled all the criticism was the best thing and that’s the way it should be. People always talk about something, they used to talk before and they will continue to talk no matter what.”
“My personal statement on their separation is that they are two individual and mature adults, they know what is good for them. Saira and Shahroz are two beautiful and kind hearted people”, she added.
Actor Naveed Raza appeared on Timeout With Ahsan Khan, the Khel Khel Mein star opened up on why he called out host Tabish Hashmi in December 2020.
Javed Sheikh appeared as a guest on Tabish’s To Be Honest where the host tried to drag him in the joke about famous adult film star Johnny Sins, which the Teefa In Trouble actor clearly ignored and tried to move forward.
Naveed is of the view that Tabish purposely dragged the conversation for cheap fame and views. He said that Javed is a legend and should be respected.
“It was a disgusting question, I would always raise my voice if anyone ever disrespects seniors like him or Mehmood Aslam.
Earlier he lashed out on his social media handle after watching the teaser of To Be Honest.
Some people are evergreen and Javed Sheikh is without a doubt one of them.
Javed’s nephew Shahroz Sabzwari recently shared a video of them dancing and out of all the boys, Javed Sheikh defintely stands out. At 65, the actor has the energy of a teenager as does Behroz Sabzwari.
The video also featured Saleem Sheikh and Shehzad Sheikh.
