In a video that has gone viral on social media, Fahad takes a live call during the show and asks the person their name. When the person responds “Sania,” Fahad asks her if she is Sania Mirza to which Malik says: “This can not be her.”
However, the caller proceeds to say: “Yes, this is Sania Mirza Malik.”
Fahad, who by this time is in fits, says: “Bahu ki call aai hai, welcome to the show.” Meanwhile, Shoaib is in shock.
“Did my husband failed to recognise my voice?,” questions Sania then. At this point Malik immediately stands up, holds his ears and apologises to his wife for failing to recognise her voice on the call.
Javeria Abbasi, who is currently being lauded for her performance in Tanaa Baana, recently opened up on her complicated relationship with ex-husband Shamoon Abbasi.
Talking to Nida Yasir on her Ramzan special show Shaan e Suhoor, Abbasi explained how Shamoon is not only her former husband but also her stepbrother.
Yasir explained to the viewers that Javeria’s mother and Shamoon’s father were married which makes them stepsiblings but they both had different sets of parents. The host further clarified that Javeria was the child of her mother’s first husband and Shamoon was child of his father’s first wife. The two also have siblings together.
Javeria said that Shamoon was the only man she ever knew and that their marriage lasted for 10 years. The former couple had welcomed their first child after two years of marriage.
The veteran also joked that when she got married, her mother, who was also her mother-in-law gave her a tough time because she wanted to prove that her daughter can do anything.
“I used to work 12 hours a day [on set] and then after coming back home, I used to prepare the food and iron clothes as well.”
Javeria also shared that Shamoon and her began their career together and that she was fortunate that she did not have to go through the casting couch.
Meanwhile, Yasir also revealed that a drama serial titled Hum Tum was also made inspired by Javeria’s life and relationships.
Mashal Khan has requested people to stop pulling her into Ali Ansari and Saboor Aly’s engagement, which took place a few days back.
Soon after the couple announced the news, people start sharing clips of Aamir Liaquat’s Jeeway Pakistan where Liaquat was teasing Ali with Mashal’s name. Later, netizens also shared old pictures of Mashal and Ali making memes on them and trolling them.
While Ali and Saboor continued to ignore them, Mashal has stood up and requested fans to stop dragging her into the entire situation.
“It is so sad that a moment which is supposed to be of so much happiness for a couple has been turned into idle gossip,” said Khan. “It has come to my knowledge that several attempts are being made to pull me into Ali Ansari and Saboor Aly’s engagement announcement.”
Congratulating the newly engaged couple, Mashal said: “Let’s not try to ruin someone’s moment, shall we?”
Meanwhile, Ali recently shared an emotional photo with Saboor from their engagement ceremony in which both him and Saboor were teary-eyed.
Saboor having lost her mother and her fiancée having lost his father were emotional about their absence in the lives’ major event.
“This picture is worth more than a thousand words. The tears falling down her face told me how much she was missing her mother, and deep down in my heart I was missing my father,” he wrote.
“As much as we wished they were with us to be part of and share our happiness, we both know they are in a better place smiling from up above and sending down their blessings.
“For everyone out there, value, respect and spend time with your loved ones. Here is to new beginnings and all kinds of emotions. I got you,” he wrote.
Following the post, Saboor commented saying how her late mother would have been very happy had she been here while expressing her gratitude towards Ali.
“My mother would have been very happy for me today, I am so happy to have found a companion like you. Thankyou for everything,” she commented.
Fawad Khan and his family generally tend to stay away from social media and the media spotlight which is why we barely get a glimpse into their private and personal lives. Fawad’s wife Sadaf, in a rare interactive session on Instagram, gave a sneak peek into the couple’s private life and revealed Fawad Khan’s hidden talent.
In a Question&Answer session on SFK Bridals’ Instagram, Sadaf, while responding to a question on whether Fawad cooks said: “It’s a hidden talent of his. And he’s exceptionally good!”
When another user asked Sadaf if she likes to cook, the designer said: “Unfortunately I’m quite bad at it. Fawad cooks exceptionally well!”
Sadaf also shared that the couple has been married for 15 years.
When someone asked what the hardest part is in being Fawad’s wife, Sadaf said: “It’s a privilege. Can’t deny that!”
Sadaf also talked about the couple’s three children and shared a quality of each. She said that both herself and Fawad are protective of their children and that Fawad is closer to Elayna.
Sadaf also shared that prior to becoming a designer, she worked with various corporates.
“The last one before an exit from the corporate world was TetraPak Pakistan,” she said.
Sadaf launched her own clothing brand in 2019 named SFK Bridals.
Zoya and Christian also shared pictures from the celebration on social media, thanking Shahveer and their other friends for arranging the surprise dholki.
Shahveer also vlogged the entire event. Watch the video below:
Zoya and Christian got engaged earlier this year in February. The news of their engagement came just a few days after Christian announced that he has converted to Islam.
Celebrity couple Iqra Aziz and Yasir Hussain on Sunday announced that they are expecting their bundle of joythis July.
Sharing beautiful pictures from Iqra’s godh bharai (baby shower) the couple shared the news with their fans and followers and asked them to pray for them.
For the event, Iqra chose a gorgeous purple and orange outfit by Fahad Hussayn and the designer has revealed that the dupatta had a special message on it for the mother-to-be. As per details, 100 special messages and prayers in Urdu have been crafted on the embellished dupatta with a floral design.
In a conversation with Dawn Images, Hussayn recalled Aziz reaching out to him when she was planning her godh bharai.
“I loved that she was having a godh bharai rather than a westernised bridal shower,” said the designer. “She told me that she wanted to wear something that she could pass on to her child and we started working on a concept. I asked her to come up with a list of 100 duas, which she did with the help of Yasir and her mother.”
Hussayn then designed 100 different flowers and the messages were embroidered around them.
“[The duas are] all the wishes she has for her child. If it’s a girl, she wants to pass this dupatta on to her and if it’s a son, then to his wife,” shared Hussayn adding that the list includes advice like “ilm sub say bari daulat hai” (knowledge is the greatest wealth) and “logon ke saath bhalai karo gay toh log bhi tumharay saath bhalai karein gay” (be kind to others and they will be kind to you).
The organza dupatta was paired with a simple peshwas and gharara in chiffon worked with sacha gota.
Hussayn also shared that Iqra allowed him to decid the colour himself.
Iqra was recently featured in Hussayn’s fashion music video Mera Jora that was released earlier this year. Incidentally, the video was filmed shortly after Aziz discovered that she was expecting.
“I am very happy for her. She’s an extremely genuine person and this is a very happy time for her. She may be at the peak of her career but she’s also prioritising her family life,” said the designer. “I think more than anything else, the coronavirus has made us all realise the importance of being surrounded by family.”
Rabia Anum Obaid, who is co-hosting Pakistan Television’s (PTV) Ramzan Transmission along with Ahsan Khan, recently gave a sweet response to a man who asked for a wazeefa to have sons.
A video from the Sehri transmission, that has gone viral on social media, shows a viewer asking for a wazeefa so that he can have a boy. The man said that he has five daughters and yearns for a son. After a religious scholar answered his question, Rabia Anum added that having daughters is a blessing.
Anum further said that Allah blesses those with daughters whom is is happy with. Addressing the live caller, Rabia said that Allah is happy with you which is why you have so many daughters. She also gave an example of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW), who had four daughters.
Rabia also said that apart from Shahid Afridi’s cricketing career or welfare, she respects him most because of the love he showers on his daughters.
Ansari also shared a picture from their baat pakki and wrote: “Honestly, I’m in a mix of all kinds of emotions right now but most important of all I’m happy.”
He also shared translation of a verse from Quran: “And of everything we created a pair, that perhaps you may remember.”
“From this day forward you should not walk alone,” added the actor.
Take a flashback to the past few years, we have been observing the trend of airing sitcoms or romantic-comedy dramas on different channels during the month of Ramzan. Although this trend initially received much criticism. However, with the passage of time, people have started to enjoy watching these entertainment packages. Chupke Chupke and Tanaa Banaa of HUM TV are giving us laughter dose after every Iftaar, while Geo TV has given Ishq Jalebi.
These dramas are offering comedy, controversies and family politics but they’ve also given us four delightful on-screen couples. Zain and Zoya from Tanaa Banaa, Hadi and Mishi, Meenu and Faazi/Ustaad Jee from Chupke Chupke and Basim and Bela from Ishq Tamasha.
Zain and Zoya
Zain (Danyal Zafar) is a young boy who fell in love with Zoya (Alizeh Shah) at first sight. The couple has interesting chemistry with Zain expressing all his love for Zoya and Zoya just starting to realise that how much Zain loves her. While Zoya is stubborn, Zain is a loving and caring husband. The two are poles apart and this keeps the drama interesting.
Hadi and Mishi
Arslan Naseer is playing the role of Hadi while Aymen Saleem is acting as Mishi in Chupke Chupke. There is a unique hidden chemistry between this couple that was initially growing in the form of one-sided love. But now that Hadi has also fallen in love with Mishi, this love story has taken a new turn and one of the reasons why you tune into Chupke Chupke every night.
Meenu and Faazi /Ustaad Jee
Ayeza Khan is playing as Meenu and Osman Khalid Butt is playing as Faaz aka Meenu’s Ustaad Jee. Faaz used to teach Meenu so she calls him Ustaad Jee. However, in a strange turn of event the two ended up getting married and while they were initially embarrassed by this development, they are now slowly beginning to catch feelings.
Faaz, who didn’t like Meenu for her carelessness and ignorance towards studies, is now falling for her innocence. Meenu too has started to like him and their cute ways of showing affection is making the drama more interesting. With many twists and turns, their wedding is at stake and everyone is eager to see what will happen next and what new problem will arise for the newly weds.
Basim and Bela
Ishq Jalebi stars the Madiha Imam and Wahaj Ali in leading roles. Basim who is on the lookout for a shortcut to go abroad is in cahoots with Bela (Madiha Imam). She is his sidekick, best friend, and partner in crime in all that he does and also his maternal cousin who was orphaned as a child and lives with them. While Basim may not have realised how much Bela truly loves him, we the audiences can definitely see it and are absolutely loving the chemistry the two have with each other. With scenes that will make your heart have a happy dance, these two stars are a treat to watch and we’re anxious to see what Ishq Jalebi has in store for them next.
While each couple has its own charm, my favourite has to be Meenu and Faazi. Both Osman and Ayeza have brought Meenu and Faazi to life brilliantly. Very much like Faaz, I used to detest Meenu and didn’t want him to marry her. But as the story progressed, I am also enjoying their naivety, blamelessness and non-romantic fondness. Looking forward to seeing how they will cross all obstacles among them and finally become husband and wife.
Sheheryar Munawar has apologised for attending a birthday amid the deadly third wave of the coronavirus in Pakistan. The actor was recently spotted at Fahad Mirza’s 40th birthday celebrations, where he was photographed sans mask enjoying a candid moment.
After he was called out for being irresponsible, Sheheryar Munawar, in a statement apologised for his actions, saying: “Last week I went to wish my neighbour on his birthday on an invitation I had accepted two weeks prior.”
Munawar said that he was not expecting such a crowd and left five minutes after wishing the birthday boy.
“In a candid moment I was asked to take my mask off and pose for a picture,” continued Sheheryar. “Rightly so, I was called out for doing that and not following the SOPs. There is no justification for my actions and I stand corrected.”
Taking full responsibility, Sheheryar apologised for his “ignorance, lapse in judgement and lack of better sense” and thanked his social media family for “keeping my moral compass in check”
“Times are tough and we must all follow SOPs outlined by the government,” added the actor before extending prayers for those affected.
Later, while responding to a social media user, Munawar asserted that there are “no justifications for my actions”.
You’re right ! Like I said, no justifications for my actions. I was wrong and I stand corrected
It is pertinent to mention here that Munawar had tested positive for COVID-19 when Pakistan experienced its first wave.
Meanwhile, Mirza’s birthday party was an extravagant affair with many celebs including wife Sarwat Gilani, Zeba Bakhtiar, Frieha Altaf, and Mansha Pasha in attendance. After pictures from the celebrations went viral on social media, people present at the event were heavily criticised for not following the SOps.
Frieha had defended the celebrations, saying: “First of all, it was a very small gathering and it was on an open rooftop. All SOPs were followed, there were masks, temperature checks at the gate and I believe most of the guests already vaccinated or had antibodies.”
