    Hijab is not just about covering the head; I salute Zarnish’s decision: Nimra Khan

    Famous actress Nimra Khan praised the hijab of former actress Zarnish Khan, who left the entertainment industry, and said that people should learn from her what the true meaning of hijab is.

    Recently, Khan was invited to a podcast discussing various topics, including her kidnapping.

    “Veil and hijab mean to cover the body and face completely. The purpose of hijab is not only to cover the hair and part of the face. Whether right or wrong, it is between me and Allah,” she said.

    “When one wears hijab, it means covering everything. If I stand before you (a man), nothing from head to toe should attract you. So, it covers not only the head but everything, including the eyes,” she added.

    Citing the example of former actress Zarnish Khan, Nimra said that her career was on the rise, but Zarnish left everything and started veiling. “She is not even sharing reels (short videos) while wearing hijab.”

    She added, “It is often seen that women and young girls wear hijab as a fashion statement. They wear hijab over jeans, pants, and shirts; some even wear makeup. They don’t understand the true meaning of hijab, which should not be done that way,” she said.

    “I understand that some people earn their livelihood through social media, but Zarnish gave up everything completely. I salute and respect her decision because few people have that courage,” she praised Khan.

    ‘Negative soul, weird issues’: Zarnish Khan, Mathira lash out at Firdous Jamal

    Senior actor Firdous Jamal recently appeared on Ahmad Ali Butt’s chat show, Super Over. On the show, the veteran performer slammed superstars Humayun Saeed and Faysal Qureshi’s acting skills.

    While he scored Faysal’s acting as 4/10, he had much more to say about Humayun’s acting chops. Jamal said, “Humayun Saeed has no voice, no character, and nothing like that.” He also said that there are still fools who think he’s a talented actor. “

    Amidst the ongoing interview, Zarnish Khan condemned his statements and shared her own experience with the actor. “He cracks me up with his weird issues with things and people, (No offense intended). So long time ago, we were doing a project together and out of respect I said “AOA Firdous uncle, how are you?” and he got pissed ke BB Mainy showbiz industry is lye join nahi ki thi ke log mujhai kabhi uncle bolain. I was like ummmm! Okay then, AOA FIRDOUS SAHAB, “if that works for you.” Uncle or no uncle, he could have been polite. Never mind!”

    Host and actress Mathira was quick to comment on Zarnish’s post. The Blind Love starlet termed Jamal as an “unhappy negative soul”.

    Mathira then also posted an Instagram story regarding Jamal’s recent comments.

    ‘Feminists are after me’: Zarnish Khan clarifies her stance on early marriages

    Actor Zarnish Khan recently appeared on The Current Life series. In the interview while talking about getting married at the age of 17, She said she would recommend marrying early because one is very flexible and adaptable at that age.

    Zarnish khan’s statement went viral on Social media.

    Zarnish has now posted a video to clarify her statement.  “Having an opinion is okay, however, imposing it on someone is absurd! Learn to be civil if you wanna co-exist in this twisted world. #EarlyMarriages #RecentStatement,” she captioned her video.

    “So, very recently I made a statement in which I said I believe early marriages are good because its easy for you to adjust. All the feminists are after me, a lot of people have a lot of things to say about it,” she said in the video.

    She continued by saying that marrying at an early age is not only good for women but men also. “I said that it’s good if you get married in an early age because it becomes easier for you to settle in.”

     “Marriage is all about compromises, not from one side, I don’t say only for women but also for men. For that you need acceptability and patience that fades away with time. In that regard I think if it happens early, it’s not ridiculous.”

    The Sun Yaara star added, “However, I also said everyone has a different mindset and by the end of the day it’s a personal choice. Whoever wants to marry whenever is fine, that’s it. I’m very civil that way, I feel that if I have a certain opinion about something, it’s okay, that’s just my opinion, that’s just how I feel. Maybe based on my experience, I don’t know there could be so many possible reasons for that, the way I think, right?”

    “And same goes for everyone out there who’s going to see this message so it’s alright. It’s okay for me to have an opinion that I believe in, it works for me. I do not ask you to change yours and cheers on that. I hope we all learn a little something here,” she concluded her message.

    Reposting a video of actress Meera from the 20th Lux Style Awards, in an attempt to take a dig at her, a blog had written, “Uff yaar Meera ki English!” with laughter emoticons. Sharing the same on her Instagram story, Sun Yaara star Zarnish Khan commented, “Yaar bas kardo weli awaam (Can you people cut it out already?)”

    She then asserted, “I’m pretty sure all the people who make such memes or cut-out video clips are a bunch of idiots themselves, who probably can’t even speak Urdu fluently, let alone English.”

    The Ishq Zah-e-Naseeb diva reminded everyone that just because most of us can pass comments in the shadows, without ever having to worry about our reputation being dragged through the mud; does not mean we’ve earned the license to publicly shame people in the limelight.

    “Just because you can hide behind the anonymity of a cyber-network, doesn’t give you a right to make fun of other people,” the Ye Dil Mera actor lashed out. “Maybe she [Meera] can’t speak well in English but is that a crime? How well do you know this language? Are you ready for an open challenge? I bet you aren’t!” She concluded by asking her followers to “stop being so shallow please!”

    In the video, Meera was struggling to say, “I’m very excited to be here, obviously it’s a big night today. I want to congratulate Lux Style Awards for completing 20 years, it’s an achievement, me bohat khush hun aj (I’m really happy today).”
