    Mahira Khan wanted to avoid photoshoot with husband before marriage

    Famous actor Mahira Khan has recently talked about her beautiful wedding clothes and shared her ideas for sunset photos with her husband Salim Karim.

    Mahira Khan talked to Lollywood space where she said that when the photos were first shared last October along with news of her marriage to Salim Karim, it was unexpected. She said all those pictures were taken casually, surprising everyone.
    “I didn’t know that wedding photographers take pictures before the wedding ceremony, maybe at the studio or the wedding venue, and I was not prepared for it,” Khan remembered.
    The ‘Aik Hai Nigar’ star went on to say, “I told them I can’t take photos with Salim before we officially signed the marriage papers, because I wanted him to see me after we got married.”

    “So when I arrived, I was in one corner, he was in another, peeking through his Sehra, and I had my veil. That’s when we signed the papers. I walked towards him, and he saw me for the first time. And that’s what I wanted,” she explained. She added that when she met her now-husband, she completely forgot about the pictures they were supposed to take after the wedding ceremony. “My team and photographers rushed about because the sun was about to set.”

    “I mentioned that we stood at a nearby cliff for some last-minute photoshoot,” said Khan. “I didn’t want any fancy poses or editorials,” she added. “I wanted to enjoy my day without worrying about the pictures.”

    Mahira Khan got married to Salim Karim, who is an entrepreneur and CEO of a startup based in Pakistan. They had a small and private wedding ceremony in Bhurban in October last year.

    The ongoing seige of Gaza has led to a death toll of 6000 innocent civilians, which includes 2000 children. President of America, Joe Biden, was criticised by protestors around the world for refusing to impose a ceasefire as hospitals in Gaza run out of fuel to provide care for the injured, including premature babies.

    Actress Mahira Khan shared a series of clips from Gaza photographer Motaz Azizi, who shared a video of the complete destruction of Gaza after Israeli airstrikes. It followed with a clip of Gazan civilians who revealed how they fled to the south of Gaza to escape the bombs, but Israeli airstrikes bombed homes and markets there. Another clip showed Jewish Americans protesting inside the Capitol building.

    “This is the genocide of Palestinian people,” the ‘Humsafar’ actress wrote. “This is killing of innocent human beings – men, women and children ( majority children). History will remember those who had the power to make a difference and didn’t, those who could bring an end to this and remained quiet.. they will always have blood on their hands. Praying every moment with a broken heart.”

    Other prominent Pakistani celebrities have consistently used their platform to call for a ceasefire in Gaza and criticised Israel for targetting women and children with airstrikes. Ayesha Omar shared a picture of Gazan children holding the Palestinian flag and wrote in the caption: ‘Hoping and praying for an immediate ceasefire. May Allah ease the pain and suffering of all the innocent lives, especially children, in Gaza. May the truth always win. May Allah bless the souls of the ones who have lost their lives in this genocide. Ameen.”
