  • Katy Perry roars into space on all-woman flight

    Katy Perry roars into space on all-woman flight

     Pop star Katy Perry completed a brief foray into space on Monday, roaring to the edge of the cosmos with an all-women crew on one of billionaire Jeff Bezos’s rockets.

    The “Firework” and “California Gurls” singer was lofted more than 60 miles (100 kilometers) above the Earth’s surface in a vessel from Blue Origin, the space company owned by the Amazon founder.

    Five other women — including Bezos’s fiancee Lauren Sanchez — were on the flight, which took off from western Texas shortly after 8:30am before safely landing again some 10 minutes later. The flight brought the passengers beyond the Karman line — the internationally recognised boundary of space.

    One of the other passengers, TV presenter Gayle King, said Perry sang “What a wonderful world” in space. “It’s a 10 out of 10. That’s my review. Definitely go for it,” the singer said after she was safely back on Earth.

    Their fully automated craft rose vertically before the crew capsule detached mid-flight, later falling back to the ground slowed by parachutes and a retro rocket. The jubilant women then emerged, with Perry kissing the ground after exiting the capsule.

    Netflix’s first Pakistani production may be about to release

    It’s the show everyone’s talking about—and now there’s a new reason to get even more excited.

    Fans have been waiting for months for Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo, Pakistan’s first-ever Netflix original series. But now, thanks to a small comment from writer Farhat Ishtiaq, we might finally have a release window: June.

    Farhat Ishtiaq, the author of the bestselling novel, dropped a big hint under a YouTube video, suggesting that the most anticipated drama of the year could be coming in June. While there’s no official announcement from Netflix yet, fans aren’t ignoring a clue coming straight from the creator herself.

    For those who haven’t read the novel—JBHSSL tells the powerful story of Sikandar, a brilliant but emotionally damaged Harvard law student, and Liza, a fearless Italian artist with her own painful past. Their journey through grief, healing, and love unfolds in the beautiful backdrop of Italy.

    The cast is absolutely star-studded.

    Fawad Khan will play Sikandar (cue the excitement!), while Mahira Khan takes on the role of Liza. The series also features Sanam Saeed, Ahad Raza Mir, Hamza Ali Abbasi, Maya Ali, Hania Aamir, Iqra Aziz, Bilal Ashraf, and Khushhal Khan. Yes, it’s real—and yes, it’s happening.

    While Netflix and the production team haven’t confirmed anything yet, fans are already circling June on their calendars. And with a cast this iconic and a story this emotional, Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo might just be the biggest thing to hit our screens in 2025.

    ‘2025 could be critical’; Astrologer predicts setbacks, safety threats for Salman Khan

    Renowned Indian astrologer Geetanjali Saxena has made a startling prediction about the career and personal security of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan.

    According to Indian media, Saxena stated that “Professionally, Salman Khan’s year 2024 has not been favorable and for the coming years, he is advised to refrain from releasing any new films.”

    She also warned about potential risks to his safety later this year: “Salman Khan’s life is not in danger, but despite this, he will have to be careful around September-October this year.”

    While speaking about threats to the actor’s security, Saxena added that “Only people close to Salman, such as his staff and security personnel, can help the Bishnoi gang in collecting information about him and even leaking it.”

    The astrologer also raised concerns about the period after April 2024, claiming that real danger lies ahead: “There is a possibility of an accident or a medical emergency in 2025—it is possible that this person will survive it.”

    She advised that “Salman Khan should complete his major professional commitments by March 2025 and take a break afterwards. He will have to be very careful for the entire year after April.”

    These predictions come at a time when Salman Khan’s latest film Sikander has reportedly struggled at the box office, marking one of the lowest points in his 37-year-long career, according to industry insiders.

    With ongoing concerns regarding his safety and a lukewarm career phase, Geetanjali Saxena’s forecasts have only intensified public interest in what lies ahead for the Bollywood icon.

  • Court jails three in Khalil ur Rehman Qamar kidnapping case

    Court jails three in Khalil ur Rehman Qamar kidnapping case

    Lahore’s Anti-Terrorism Court has convicted three individuals and acquitted others in the high-profile honey trap and kidnapping-for-ransom case involving drama writer Khalilur Rehman Qamar.

    Judge Arshad Javed sentenced Amna Urooj, Mamnoon Haider, and Zeeshan to seven years in prison each for “demanding ransom”.

    Primary suspect Hassan Shah, along with other accused individuals, was acquitted after the court ruled that the charge of kidnapping could not be proven; as a result, no sentence was issued on that count due to insufficient evidence.

    The court stated, “The prosecution recorded statements from 17 witnesses, based on which the verdict was given.”

    Khalilur Rehman Qamar was allegedly honey-trapped and then kidnapped on 15 July. A ransom was reportedly demanded soon after. The case was officially registered on 21 July at the Sundar Police Station under kidnapping and terrorism charges.

    The trial began in August, involving a total of 11 accused. During proceedings, a total of 17 witnesses, including Khalilur Rehman Qamar himself, his friends, police officers, and bank staff, gave their statements,” the court noted.

    Only one of the accused has been released on bail so far. Notably, the Lahore High Court had rejected the bail application of the main accused, Amna Urooj.

    Katy celebrated the International Day of Human Space Flight by posting behind-the-scenes photos. “Forever in awe of the Universe and its alignment,” she wrote. She also joked about bringing some glamour to space: “There will be lash extensions flying in the capsule,” she said. “Mine are glued on. They’re good.”

    Lauren also added some humour: “Space is going to finally be glam,” she laughed. “We are going to put the ‘ass’ in astronaut.”

    But beyond the fun, this mission is about more than fashion. It’s about representation, empowerment, and making history.

    Engineer Aisha Bowe shared that she tested her hairstyle by skydiving in Dubai. Activist Amanda Nguyen, who’s been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, said she plans to wear lipstick in space. “Women are multitudes,” she said. “I’m going to be wearing lipstick.”
