    Photographers hit back after Shahveer Jafry accuses them of sharing pictures without consent

    Shahveer Jafry got engaged to fashion designer Ayesha Beig on Wednesday in an intimate ceremony. After much buzz, he took to Instagram and confirmed the news himself with pictures from the event.

    All seemed to be going well until the Canadian-Pakistani YouTuber accused the photographers of sharing pictures and videos from his engagement on social media without his consent.

    In a story posted to his Instagram, Shahveer hit out at the photographers covering his engagement, calling them ‘vultures’. According to him, they had posted the videos and pictures without the couple’s consent.

    While Shahveer later reportedly deleted his story, the photographers responded to his allegations saying that they did not upload a single picture without the bride’s consent, who had hired them. They said it was in fact the couple who posted pictures without giving due credits to the photographers.

    The photographers also posted a couple of screenshots which made Ayesha’s consent evident.

    “And to add up, yes we did called Ayesha twice after seeing the story and before taking any step. She didn’t pick didn’t call back then we took the step. And we were never contacted by anyone from this event for not uploading or removing any pix other than just two posts Ayesha asked.”

    “Infact several guests contacted that they loved the pictures and wonder if we could send them the pictures too. We can upload those screen shots too and screen shot of our call log for calling (with time and date) Ayesha twice before we took our first step.”

    Later, in an Instagram post, the studio said they were “already on” to settle at getting public apology or check from their corporate lawyer over ‘defamation’.

    Shahveer and Ayesha have not yet responded to the photographers.

  • Abrar ul Haq’s new song ft. Mehwish Hayat is very ‘chamkeeli’

    Who needs Bollywood dance songs when we’ve got Abrarul Haq. After Billo, Abrar has given us another wedding jam, though to be honest, it doesn’t quite match up. But then again, Billo is iconic.

    Abrar’s latest song Chamkeeli featuring Mehwish Hayat and Shahveer Jafry as the bride and groom on their wedding day is fun, lively and gives out energetic happy vibes.

    Chamkeeli is picturised on a strong, empowered woman, played by Mehwish who knows what she wants on her wedding day. Mehwish looks every bit the rockstar bride in a bright, red gharara and sunglasses in some of the shots. Shahveer plays the shy groom.

    Some fans speculated that the video shows an older woman marrying a younger boy and praised Abrar for choosing a progressive topic as the backdrop of his video.

    And what’s even more interesting is that Mehwish has also sung a few lines of the song.
