    I thought I was in love, but I was mistaken, says Nazish Jahangir

    Nazish Jahangir is a firm fan favourite and a popular actress but success has not shielded her from heartbreak. The actress opened up about her personal life in a recent interview.

    During the conversation, she confessed that she was once trapped in the illusions of love, which had blinded her.
    “When a person falls in love, even a rational person stops thinking with their mind. Everything about the other person seems perfect, but when the heart breaks, understanding dawns,” she said.
    She further explained, “I am someone who values truth, so I couldn’t stay in that past love for long. After that experience, I’ve become more practical. Now, I keep my mind and eyes open.”
    When asked what she would do if her past love were to return, she replied, “I have moved on and I am sure I won’t have any relationship with someone who has ever broken my heart.”
    Nazish Jahangir began her career in 2017 and quickly gained popularity in a short period. She showcased her acting skills in various hit dramas, including ,’Kam Zarf’, ‘Sarab’ and ‘Dil Tanha Tanha’.

    Mohsin Abbas Haider, Nazish Jahangir arrested by FIA?

    Mohsin Abbas Haider and Nazish Jahangir have rejected claims of being arrested by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA). The duo, who are rumoured to be a relationship and one of the reasons behind Haider’s divorce, denied the news of their arrest on social media.

    Late last night when the reports emerged, Mohsin shared a picture of himself and Nazish at an ice-cream store.

    The following morning, Mohsin went live on Instagram while working out at the gym.

    Similarly, Nazish also denied the claims and accused Fatima of spreading fake news.

    Mohsin and Nazish also rejected the reports while interacting with fans in the comments section.

    Reports of Mohsin and Nazish’s arrest emerged after the singer’s former wife Fatima Sohail posted a news clipping on Instagram and thanked FIA for giving her justice. According to reports, Haider and Jahangir were arrested by FIA cybercrime wing in Karachi on Friday. They are allegedly being interrogated over charges of blackmailing, harassment, fake pictures and videos after evidence was collected against both of them. Fatima had filed a case with FIA accusing Mohsin and Nazish of harassing her over social media.

    Fatima’s sister and anchorperson Ayesha Ehtesham also shared the news on social media, though she expressed her disappointment in the regulatory body over the fact that an FIR has still not been registered.

    Last year, Mohsin and Fatima got divorced after fours years of marriage. Their divorce was heavily publicised after Fatima, in an explosive social media account posted on July 20, 2019, alleged that Mohsin was domestically abusive and had hit her on multiple occasions. She later filed an FIR against Mohsin on grounds of abusive behaviour and that Mohsin extorted money from her.

    In August 2019, Mohsin was found guilty of threatening Fatema by a lower court in Lahore. However, he was found innocent of breach of trust and demanding money from his wife.

    When a follower shared his thoughts on the matter, Hamza said that he is “referring to terms that denote self-proclaimed directly divinely guided people.”

    Hamza further asserted that all problems within Islam exist today because we have started neglecting the Quran.

    Following Hamza’s comments, Mohsin Abbas Haider and Shahroz Sabzwari expressed their reservations and disagreed with Abbasi. While Mohsin advised Hamza to keep learning, Sabzwari commented that he fails to understand why some people become the thaikaydaar (custodians) of Islam.

    It is pertinent to mention here that Hamza supported Haider’s former wife Fatima Sohail when she accused him of domestic abuse and cheating.

    “We need to make a horrible example of Mr Mohsin for all those men who dare raise there hand on the female servants of Allah & try to justify it,” Hamza had said.

    On the other hand, Yasir Hussain supported Hamza’s stance and said that he is saying the right thing.

    Meanwhile, it is also pertinent to mention here that in May 2018, Pataris’ CEO Khalid Bajwa was accused of misusing his power to extract sexual favors out of women. Though Bajwa initially resigned from his positon, he was later secretly rehired by the company. Six of Patari’s original team members resigned in July of the same team after it was clear that Bajwa was not stepping down.

    In August 2018, Patari allegedly complied to a request made by Ali Zafar to change the ranking of a song released by Meesha Shafi’s brother Faris Shafi. Zafar, who at the time had been accused of sexual harassment by Meesha apparently felt that the promotion of Faris’ song made it seem that Patari was on Meesha’s side in their legal dispute.
