    How is Zhalay Sarhadi linked to Mughal-e-Azam?

     
     Mughal-e-Azam is not just a film, it’s a landmark in cinema that has greatly impacted the film industry. The film beautifully captures the essence of love, sacrifice and art, and it still inspires people today.

     Zhalay shared that her grandfather, Zia Sarhadi, was an accomplished writer who contributed to some legendary films, including Mother India and Mughal-e-Azam. Zhalay said, “He was one of the writers of Mother India, he was one of the writers of Mughal-e-Azam also contributed as a writer for other significant projects. My father was a beautiful singer, which adds to our family’s artistic legacy.”
     
     Zhalay also talked about an interesting family connection, “My phupo is Salma Agha, and she may not be directly related to my father, she is my father’s cousin, so she is also part of the family.”
     
     “During my time working in India, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Annu Kapoor. When I first met him at 19, he asked me ‘What is your relation to Zia Sarhadi?” and I said, ‘He is my grandfather’ and he treated me with so much respect, making me feel valued despite being a newcomer. That was when I realized the depth of my family’s legacy,”  The Hadsa actress added.

  • Zhalay Sarhadi questions Khalil ur Rehman’s honey-trap claims

    Zhalay Sarhadi questions Khalil ur Rehman’s honey-trap claims

    Popular actress Zhalay Sarhadi has questioned why the sex tape videos of controversial writer Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar, allegedly made at gunpoint, were not clearer.

    Zhalay recently appeared on 365 Digital’s podcast where she discussed Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s videos and his abduction case, among other issues.

    She said, “Just as he is saying that these videos were made at gunpoint, similarly, the girl, Amina Urooj, is also claiming that she was forced.”

    She also raised the question that, according to the claims of both the writer and the girl, “They were taken hostage at gunpoint, but why are the guns not visible?”

    She also asked, “Why were those videos made with hidden cameras instead of having the cameras in plain sight? When someone is kidnapped for ransom, a clear video is typically made, showing a demand for money under threat.”

    According to Sarhadi, “Just as there are videos of people kidnapped for ransom, there would have been a similar video of Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar.”
    Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar was allegedly subjected to torture after being abducted in a honey trap in July last month, and his sex tape videos were later leaked.

    Regarding the videos Qamar claimed that “They were made at gunpoint and that he was also forced to engage in sexual activity with the girl.”

    After the sex tape videos were leaked, police took action and arrested not only the main accused, Amina Urooj, but also other individuals who are currently on remand with Lahore Police. Their case is under hearing.

    Social media is like a strict ‘Desi Mom’: Zhalay Sarhadi

    Pakistani actress Zhalay Sarhadi recently likened social media to a “strict desi mom”.

    The statement came after she received criticism over her participation in a campaign promoting Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz.

    The campaign, which has been running for several days, celebrates Maryam Nawaz’s achievements and features many social media influencers and famous Pakistani celebrities such as Urwa Hocane, Sanam Saeed, Saba Qamar, Zhalay Sarhadi, and singer Aima Baig.

    Disappointed members of the public, however, condemned the campaign and called for a boycott of the participating artists.

    In response to the criticism, Zhalay Sarhadi shared a light-hearted message on her Instagram, comparing social media users to a strict “desi mom.”

    “Social media is just like a desi mom. After a whole day of work, if you leave a glass on the table, you’ll hear, ‘Useless! You don’t do anything,’” she wrote.

    In the domestic market, silver prices also saw an upward trend, with 24-karat silver and 10-gramme 24-karat silver settling at Rs2,670 and Rs2,289.09, respectively.

    It is noteworthy that the domestic bullion market displayed a robust recovery in the previous session after enduring five consecutive losses, resulting in a cumulative loss of Rs6,300 for 24-karat gold.

    This surge was attributed to a rally in international markets, which persisted today, contributing to gains in the domestic market.

    As of the latest update, international spot gold is trading at $2,041.17, reflecting a 0.26 per cent increase for the day.

    The ongoing upward trajectory in international gold prices is influenced by the recent statement from the US Federal Reserve, which indicates a cumulative rate cut of 75 basis points in 2024.
