    FACTCHECK: Did Umair Jaswal really say, ‘Mera aur Khawar Maneka ka gham aik jaisa hai’?

    On Sunday, Neo News posted an article with the title “Mera aur Khawar Maneka ka gham aik jaisa hai: Umair Jaswal”. Later, they deleted the article as singer-cum-actor Umair Jaswal explained that a fake X account with his identity appeared on social media after his former wife Sana Javed married cricketer Shoaib Malik.

    Umair Jaswal also confirmed in his Instagram stories that multiple posts were going viral on social media from unverified and fake accounts.

    The tweets from a fake account with the name @ImairJs were going viral. In one of the tweets, the poster, pretending to be Jaswal, compared himself with the former husband of former first lady Khawar Maneka.

    The famous singer also confirmed that his X (previously Twitter) account has a different user name, @umairjaswal.

    On Saturday, famous cricketer Shoaib Malik posted photos of his wedding with actress Sana Javed.

    Since Sana and Malik had worked together in the past, when the cricketer acted as a model and walked on the ramps, fans believed the earlier images were from one of those photoshoots. However, confirmation of their marriage came from family sources and Malik’s social media post.

    Dear Shoaib and Sana, public marriages should have public closure

    Needless to say, today’s big story has hit some people hard — and harder hit are the ones who were taken by surprise. We still remember the time when Shoaib Malik and Sania Mirza got married.

    Shoaib Malik and Sania Mirza married in a traditional Muslim ceremony in Hyderabad, India in 2010, followed by a Valima ceremony in Sialkot, Pakistan. Izhaan, the couple’s first child, was born in 2018.

    The rumours of Sania and Shoaib’s separation were around for a long time, but nothing was confirmed. There was an ongoing debate on social media which spiked whenever they either stopped following each other or removed pictures from Instagram.

    On the other hand, Sana Javed and Umair Jaswal’s marriage was also under discussion as rumours of their separation were widely spread on social media. In November 2023, speculations about the couple’s separation gained traction as users observed that Sana Javed and Umair Jaswal had deleted all traces of their shared moments from their Instagram accounts.

    Recently, Sania posted a story on Instagram which stated, “Marriage is hard. Divorce is hard. Choose your hard….Life will never be easy. It will always be hard. But we can choose our hard. Pick wisely.” And people felt for her, picking up that something was yet again, not okay. And she wasn’t able to fully express it, yet.

    Even now, stories are circulating through sources that Shoaib and Sania have divorced – with no comment by the reportedly former couple themselves

    We aren’t here to moral police two of our biggest superstars. But we would like to say, we expected that seasoned celebrities would show their fans a better, more respectful way to starting new chapters in their lives. Sania, Shoaib, Sana, Uzair, there are people who connect with them, follow them, want to be like them, which is why we would’ve appreciated an understanding of what’s going on.

    Sania, throughout this process, has said nothing. Amidst all this, Shoaib posts a picture with Sana, announcing his third marriage, and while we are happy for the new couple and their new beginning — we do have to ask — perhaps it might have been better to give their fan following who are invested in their lives, closure.

  • Social media in frenzy on Shoaib Malik’s wedding

    Social media in frenzy on Shoaib Malik’s wedding

    Cricketer Shoaib Malik and actor Sana Javed have caused media frenzy and social media uproar early on Saturday morning when both announced that they had gotten married, complete with photos from the ceremony. In the photos, they are wearing similar outfits while hugging each other. The caption says “Alhamdullilah” and quotes the Holy Book: “And We created you in pairs.”

    The sudden announcement surprised many because Shoaib Malik was married to tennis star Sania Mirza, and Sana Javed was married to singer Umair Jaswal. There had been no official confirmation of the two marriages ending.

    Social media was taken by surprise but is not holding back.

    Someone on X (formerly Twitter) said, “Shoaib Malik got married again, but King Babar hasn’t married yet,” along with a thinking John Cena GIF. Another X user asked, “Did Shoaib Malik and Sana Javed really get married? This is why Malik Sahab was supporting Sana when half the showbiz was speaking out against her.’”

    One fan joked, “Now I know why Shoaib Malik was so excited on Jeeto Pakistan.” Another person on X made a joke, “Where did you guys first meet: Jeeto Pakistan – Ramzan transmission.” Some people from across the border were also upset.

    Here are some reactions:

    Shoaib Akhtar secures stay order against filming, release of biopic 

    Former cricketer Shoaib Akhtar took to his Instagram account to announce that he has secured a stay order against the makers of his biopic ‘Rawalpindi Express’. The stay orders will prevent the crew from filming the movie.

    Akhtar warned that any person involved in the production process of the film will be held responsible by authorities:

    “I have issued a stay order against the filming and release of the supposed biopic being made on my life by a certain group of people. I had to do this because they had threatened in writing of continuing filming regardless of the legal termination of the agreement. Any person involved in the project should know that its completely illegal and they will be responsible for any reputational loss.”

    In the legal notice, it was mentioned that anyone associated with the film would be held responsible, and the police will raid any future filming with a court order.

    Previously, Akhtar announced his departure from the film, citing “failure to resolve disagreements amicably and constant contractual violations finally resulted in us cutting ties with them,” after which the former cricketer revealed he completed all legal protocols and revoked the rights to the story of his life.

    Actor Umair Jaswal, who had been selected to portray the cricket star in the project, also announced back in January in an Instagram post that he was stepping away from the film due to “personal and creative reasons”:

    “Due to creative and personal reasons, I have decided to step away from the Shoaib Akhtar biopic project RAWALPINDI EXPRESS. I will no longer be associated with any media or news related to this project.”

    “Due to creative and personal reasons, I have decided to step away from the Shoaib Akhtar biopic project RAWALPINDI EXPRESS. I will no longer be associated with any media or news related to this project.
    Wishing everyone involved all the best.”

    Actors like Sana Javed and Yasir Jaswal had sent their best wishes to the actor, hoping that he will find his preferred creative projects in the future.

    Shoaib Akhtar had announced the biopic on his Twitter page, by calling this the beginning of a beautiful journey.

    “Beginning of this beautiful journey. Announcing the launch of my story, my life, my Biopic, RAWALPINDI EXPRESS – Running against the odds. You’re in for a ride you’ve never taken before. The first foreign film is about a Pakistani Sportsman. Controversially yours, Shoaib Akhtar.”

    ‘Toxic, smear campaign, severe trauma to my family’: Sana Javed makes blasting revelations

    Over the past couple of days, allegations of misbehavior and alleged abuse of power have been levied against Sana Javed by numerous individuals within the entertainment industry.

    While detailed accounts were shared, alongside opinions, and support for those speaking up, Sana seemed to have remained relatively silent during the unfolding of events.

    However, the Khaani actress has taken to Instagram to address these allegations with a legal notice, pictures of which were shared in her post.

    “In the past 72 hours, I’ve been subjected to all sorts of lies and fabricated stories, bullying, hate speech, and threats,” penned Sana Javed in the Instagram post. “A proper planned smear campaign has been initiated against me by a group of individuals,” she further explains.

    Sana talks about how this ordeal has caused “severe trauma” to her and her family. Moreover, she writes that she is shocked to see how “toxic” people can be, with many jumping on the bandwagon of hate without verifying facts.

    In all of this, the Pyaray Afzal states that she will not be commenting on the stories or incidents that have come to light, despite the accounts being “one side of the story,” claiming that all that has been shared is “beyond disgusting,” and “disgraceful.”

    Capping off her statement, she reveals that she has taken legal action, with the matter now lying in the hands of legal bodies.

    “I love my work and hold it in the highest [regard]” says Sana Javed in her Instagram caption. “Throughout my career I’ve tried my best to hold my ground and my integrity by giving [the] utmost respect to my colleagues and peers, and expected the same in return.”

    Sana concludes her post by stating once again that she will be pursuing this legally, and talks about being grateful for the support she has received from friends and fans who have stood by her during this time, calling these supportive factions her strength.

    The detailed Instagram post also contains images of a legal document that further explains details with regards to the entire matter.

  • Indian singer Dhvani Bhanushali replicates Pakistani song ‘Gagar’

    Indian singer Dhvani Bhanushali replicates Pakistani song ‘Gagar’

    Indian singer Dhvani Bhanushali recently released her latest song Mehendi that is a blatant replication of the Pakistani song Gagar, sung by Pakistani singer Alamgir.

    Alamgir Main Ne Tumhari Gagar Se The Best Of Alamgir - YouTube

    The song has garnered more than 20 million views within two days of its release. Interestingly, the music of the Indian song is quite similar to the Pakistani iconic song Gagar.

    However, Pakistani singer Umair Jaswal, who recently did a rendition of Alamgir’s song in the Velo Sound station’s season 1, pointed out the clear copying of the tune and shared the news on his Instagram account.

    He questioned the Indian singer for copying the tune and tagged his fellow music artists who worked with him on Gagar’s remake. Originally made by veteran singers, the song Gagar is a famous song from the ’90s. Let’s have look at both songs:

  • ‘Pakistan Zindabad’, Shaan calls out ex-Indian army officer for spreading fake news

    ‘Pakistan Zindabad’, Shaan calls out ex-Indian army officer for spreading fake news

    Pakistani actor Shaan Shahid reacted to a viral picture from his movie ‘Yalghaar’ after an ex-Indian army officer tweeted a photo of Pakistani actors, falsely claiming that they were Pakistani soldiers who had been martyred in Panjshir Valley in Afghanistan. Apart from Shaan, others actors in the picture include Umair Jaswal and Bilal Ashraf.

    Shaan responded to the tweet by sharing his movie poster and said, “Hello from the other side. Pakistan Zindabaad!”

    Umair Jaswal also made fun of the picture. He tweeted, “Hello dear! From Pakistan.”

    The confusion started after a former Indian army officer, Maj Gen GD Bakshi, claimed on Twitter that the Pakistan Army had suffered heavy casualties in Panjshir Valley.

    A Twitter user mocked Bakshi by sharing a picture from the set of Pakistani movie ‘Yalghaar’ and wrote: “My class fellow from school days Maj Aijaj 2nd from left and Capt Jufar 1st from left embraced martyrdom in Panjshir. They were buried yesterday in Peshawar. ISPR is trying to hide these casualties. They fought bravely and should be honoured as such. This is injustice by Pak Army.”

    Following the false claim, an Indian general Lt Gen H S Panag(R) criticised his own general.

    Earlier, an Afghan journalist mistook Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNA Aamir Liaquat as a martyred soldier in Afghanistan.

    Indian news channels, Republic TV, and Zee Hindustan ran visuals from a video game — Arma-3 — stating that it was the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) attacking the anti-Taliban fighters.

    Then a Twitter user shared a picture of a fighter jet, claiming that a PAF plane was shot down in Afghanistan’s Panjshir Valley. Later, a fact-check by Dawn showed that the picture is actually from 2018 in the United States.

    Bakshi, who has had a long career in the Indian army, is known for spreading fake news. An article by Indian publication The Print last year referred to him as the “shrillest warmonger in the media”, as per Dawn.
