    Kiran Rao did something unusual when she divorced Aamir Khan

    Even though they got divorced, Aamir Khan is often seen in public with his ex-wife, Kiran Rao. Kiran was a big part of their daughter Ira Khan’s wedding. Recently, Kiran talked about her divorce with Aamir Khan for the first time.

    “Marriage can be tough for anyone,” said Kiran Rao, “We’ve had our disagreements, but we’ve never had big fights. It’s strange, but Aamir and I never really fought.” Kiran also mentioned that Aamir Khan Productions supported her latest film.

    From Kiran’s words, it’s clear that she still lives in the same building as the famous actor. Speaking to India TV, Kiran said that explaining things to the family was tough because society didn’t understand, and their opinions couldn’t be changed.

    Kiran explained that divorce is seen as a bad thing in society, but their situation was different. People usually think divorce means completely separating, but for them, it’s a different kind of divorce. It might take some time for society to understand and accept it.

    Rambo got scared by one thing before he married Sahiba

    Rambo and Sahiba are one of Lollywood’s power couples. The two have been married since decades, entertaining us throughout their marriage. And even though the two have always appeared happily in love, Jan Rambo developed cold feet just before the wedding.

    In a recent interview, he revealed that Sahiba was so humble that she didn’t even wear her own shoes on set. He admitted feeling scared about their future together at first, but Rambo noted, “Sahiba changed a lot over time.”

    Rambo confessed, “Sahiba helped me become a better person, steering me away from past mistakes.”
    Rambo shared that Sahiba’s early movies weren’t doing well, so she was searching for a good co-star. “As we spent more time together for work, I got to know her better, especially admiring her respectful behavior towards women.”


    He confessed he first saw Sahiba’s picture in a newspaper interview and immediately fell in love with her. Convincing Sahiba’s mother, former superstar Nisho, took six years. They agreed after four years, with the condition to work for two more years before tying the knot.


    Rambo admitted his initial worries about whether Sahiba could adjust to his family’s lifestyle, given her celebrity background. He recalled, “Sahiba used to come to the set before our marriage, accompanied by her manager, a security guard, a driver, and a female servant who helped her with her shoes.”


    However, Rambo’s fears vanished after seeing Sahiba adapt after marriage. He praised Sahiba’s mother for raising her daughters well despite her own fame in the entertainment industry.


    Rambo concluded by saying, “My family now admires Sahiba, considering her a wonderful wife, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better.”

    Cricketers participating in PSL 9 get payments

    Cricketers participating in the ninth season of Pakistan Super League (PSL) have received payments with most getting 70 percent of the amount under the contract. PSL is one of the few leagues in the world where the players don’t have to worry about payments.

    Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) initially created a system where the players are paid instead of the franchises, and the calculations are done later.

    This time too, 70 percent payments have been paid to the cricketers. According to the agreement, the rest of the money will be paid after the league is over, while most of the players have been paid a daily allowance of 50 dollars, the dollar rate has been fixed at 281, so each player is getting 14 thousand rupees per day, and the amount of the subsequent matches will also be paid when the teams of the playoff stage are decided.

  • Imran Khan confirms writing letter to IMF

    Imran Khan confirms writing letter to IMF

    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan has said on Friday that he has written a letter to International Monetary Fund (IMF), asking to look at the matter of poll rigging in Pakistan.

    “The letter to the IMF has been written and will be dispatched today. If the country gets a loan in such a situation, then who will return it,” Khan asked the media during a hearing of the £190 million reference at Adiala Jail.

    The former prime minister warned that taking the loan would cause more poverty, adding that unless the country invests in itself, its loans will continue to rise. 

    Khan’s update about the letter comes a day after PTI senator Ali Zafar announced that the party founder had decided to write a letter to the global lender, urging it to call for an audit of the February 8 election before it continues talks with Islamabad for a new loan programme.

    IMF has previously never commented on rigging allegations, nor is probing rigging part of its mandate. The Fund has reportedly said on Friday that it looks forward to working with the new government.

  • Putin wants Biden to become President despite son of b** comment

    Putin wants Biden to become President despite son of b** comment

    Russian President Vladimir Putin has given a meaningful response to US President Joe Biden’s rude remark calling him a son of a b***h.


    While addressing an event in California, Biden lashed out at Putin, calling him a “crazy SOB” in a sentence about threats to the world – including “that guy Putin and others”, the risk of nuclear conflict, and the existential threat to humanity from climate change.


    When a journalist asked Russian President Putin about the slur, he calmly replied that based on what Biden spoke, it can be said that his opinion about the American president was correct because Biden cannot say that Vladimir, you have done a great job, you have helped us.


    Putin added that he can understand the internal politics in America at the moment, and that’s why he wants Biden to become the president again.

    The production lines, which were initially suspended on January 29, will now remain halted until March 1. Toyota Motors is set to make a crucial decision on March 1 regarding whether to reopen the production lines from Monday, March 4.

    The affected lines include one at Toyota Auto Body’s Inabe plant in Mie prefecture, known for producing the Alphard and Vellfire minivans.

    Additionally, one line at Gifu Auto Body’s main plant in Gifu prefecture, responsible for manufacturing the HiAce van, will also continue to be suspended.

    The decision to extend the shutdown comes as Toyota Motors is addressing the irregularities in certification tests, underlining its commitment to maintaining the highest standards of quality and compliance.

    The company aims to thoroughly investigate and rectify the issues before considering the resumption of production.

    This development has significant implications for the automotive industry, as Toyota Motors is a major player in the global market.

    Stakeholders and industry observers await the decision on March 1, as it will shed light on the company’s strategy to address the challenges posed by the certification test irregularities.

    Barrister Gohar Khan “removed” as PTI chairman over unsatisfactory performance

    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sher Afzal Marwat said on Friday that Barrister Gohar is not the chairman of PTI anymore as his performance was not satisfactory.

    Marwat announced the party’s decision a day after Barrister Gohar announced that the next party chairman will be Barrister Ali Zafar. However, PTI’s intraparty elections are scheduled to take place on March 3.

    The former ruling party’s top post had been lying vacant for more than a month after not only the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), but the Supreme Court also declared its intra-party elections unlawful and stripped the party of its iconic bat symbol. 

    Talking to Geo News, Marwat said: “Incompetence and poor performance are the reasons behind Gohar’s removal as chairman. Barrister Gohar is a gentleman, but his performance was not satisfactory.”

    The PTI leader also said that Barrister Gohar failed to meet the expectations of party workers.

    According to the Weekly Sensitive Price Indicator (SPI) released by the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS), the Combined Group’s SPI increased by 0.04 per cent during the week ending February 22, 2024.

    Additionally, the SPI surged by 30.68 per cent YoY compared to the same period last year.

    As of February 22, 2024, the Combined Index stood at 315.31, a slight uptick from 315.18 on February 15, 2024. A year ago, on February 23, 2023, the index was significantly lower at 241.29.

    Analysing the data for 51 items, it was found that the average prices of 23 items increased, 8 items decreased, and 20 items remained stable.

    Notable increases during the week were observed in the prices of tomatoes (22.71 per cent), bananas (7.40 per cent), diesel (3.02 per cent), chicken (1.22 per cent), and petrol (1.00 per cent).

    Conversely, onions (14.42 per cent), eggs (11.19 per cent), LPG (1.82 per cent), cooking oil (5 litres) (0.75 per cent), and wheat flour (0.36 per cent) experienced significant decreases.

    The surge in prices, especially for essential items, poses a challenge for the general populace, particularly those in lower-income groups.

    Authorities and policymakers are likely to face increasing pressure to address and mitigate the impact of inflation on the economy and the daily lives of people.
