    Actor Feroz Khan made it clear on Tabish Hashmi’s chat show that he will choose Khalil-ur-Rehman over Marvi Sirmed.

    He revealed that initially there were differences between him and the Sadqay Tumharay writer on some issues but now matters have been settled between the two.

    The host asked the actor if he was not part of the industry and as an ordinary person he was asked to choose between Sirmed or Qamar, whose side would he take? To which the actor immediately replied that he would choose the Mere Paas Tum Ho writer and at the same time he also called Qamar the best man.

    “I respect him a lot. He is a very loving person and a great man. We had some differences but we have sorted it. He’s a great guy. So I will choose him,” he said.

    Although the actor did not explicitly say that Khalil had the civility and distinction to speak, he argued that only those who respect others get respect. Talking on the same subject, he also said that now the differences between him and Qamar are over but he did not clarify what were the issues between them.

    Khalil once objected on Feroze being casted in one of his dramas.

    Paralympian Haider Ali made the country proud by winning the first-ever gold medal for Pakistan in Paralympics discus throw competition, with a top podium finish in the discus throw event at the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics on Friday.

    The silver medal was bagged by Ukraine’s Zhabnyak with a 52.43 metres throw, while Brazilian Teixeira de Souza won bronze with a 51.86 throw.

    Earlier, Haider had won two medals, a silver in Beijing and a Bronze in Rio in the long jump event for Pakistan.

    While talking to a local news publication, Ali said that having the uncertainty in training was tough, but then the second set of problems arose with having no support from the government of Pakistan in helping the para-athletes’ travel to Tokyo.

    Earlier the National Paralympic Committee (NPC) Media Director Huma Beg had shared that the tickets for the athletes were also bought just a few days before their scheduled arrival in Tokyo. The committee did not have any backing from the government in sending the athletes to the Games, but then the Government of Punjab helped in the end in facilitating the tickets, and most of the preparation was done on self-help basis.

    Ali is acutely aware of the fact that Pakistan Government has not played the part that it should have.

    Along with Government of Pakistan and Paralympic Pakistan, many congratulated the athlete for his accomplishment.

    Soon after his win, Congratulations Pakistan started trending on Twitter and thousands of fans started congratulating him on Pakistani Twitter. Paralympics Pakistan shared a video of Pakistani Hero Ali thanking the people for their wishes.
