    Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres World tour is making its way across India, with upcoming performances in Ahmedabad on January 25 and 26. Fans are eagerly awaiting the band’s next shows.

    Earlier,british rock band Coldplay’s upcoming tour of India has triggered a police investigation and dismayed fans after scalpers bought up cheap tickets to resell online for more than $1,000 apiece.

    Thousands of music fans tried and failed to buy tickets for three concerts scheduled in financial hub Mumbai next January, sold by popular Indian online ticket portal BookMyShow.

    All three shows sold out in minutes, and those who missed out were infuriated when they saw $70 (6,000-rupee) tickets appear on resale websites at vastly inflated prices.

    “The tickets are being sold at 10 times, 20 times, 30 times the price that is being sold on the website itself,” student Anna Abraham, 19, told AFP.

    “I wouldn’t feel good about it myself if I knew that I paid for something 30 times more than what I could have paid for.”

    Local media reports said BookMyShow’s chief operating officer was questioned by police Monday after a complaint brought by Mumbai lawyer Amit Vyas, who claimed the vendor was working with “black marketeers” to make an extra windfall on ticket sales.

    “I checked with nearly 100 people who I know are regulars at concerts, none of them had gotten a ticket,” Vyas said, according to the Indian Express newspaper.

  • Srha Asghar shares first photo of her baby girl

    Srha Asghar shares first photo of her baby girl

    Actress Srha Asghar revealed the first glimpse of her newborn baby girl to her fans.

    The Meer Abru star introduced her daughter to the world through a heartfelt Instagram story, writing, “Our little pattotie is here Alhamdulillah.”

    Srha also posted a touching video capturing her pregnancy journey and the joyous moments of welcoming the newest member of her family. She captioned the video, “How it started! She is finally here.”

    The news sparked a wave of love and blessings from fans and fellow celebrities, who flooded her post with heartfelt prayers and congratulations.

    One fan commented,” Mashaallah Mubarak.”

    Another added,”MashaAllah MashaAllah such a blessing! May Allah bless you and the little one .”

    Actress Hina Afrdi also responded to the news,” MashaAllah MashaAllah.”

    Srha Asghar tied the knot with Umer Lala in January 2021.

    Earlier, television actor Srha Asghar and her husband Umer Murtaza have announced the news of the Pyaar Ke Sadqay star’s pregnancy on their Instagram handles.

  • Qarz-e-Jaan highlights mature love and family acceptance

    Qarz-e-Jaan highlights mature love and family acceptance

    Qarz-e-Jaan does a great job of showing romance between an older couple in an interesting way. It also portrays adult children, like Nashwa, accepting their mother’s past and wanting her to be happy now. This is very refreshing.


    While we love the drama, it’s troubling how everyone, including Nashwa and her friend, is so comfortable around Ammar. Ammar raped Maheen and might have killed her too.


    The stolen glances between Asim and Bisma are heartwarming. Bisma gets flustered and confused, showing the slow, mature, and deep love story between them. Despite their complaints, they are still in love.


    It’s wonderful to see the drama highlight that love isn’t limited to young people. Love, excitement, and butterflies swoop in when seeing a special someone, regardless of age. The drama helps us accept the emotions and feelings of older people, which society often dismisses.


    Barkat Apa, Bakhtiyar’s mother, is a nuisance. She kept nagging Bakhtiyar about selling the house to Burhan. This was a shock for the family because the person they wanted to avoid now owns the house.


    Qudsia Apa is refreshing. Her character’s positivity and helpfulness move the story forward. Her role is executed wonderfully, making her likable and essential to the plot.


    Is Burhan really Asim’s son? What’s the story behind it? Nashwa and Nameer’s interactions are always intriguing. This time, Nashwa caught Nameer taking pictures of a Canadian cousin without her permission. Is she his new target? Would he risk doing something to her?


    After getting away with what he and his friends did to Maheen, Nameer might think he can do it again and escape unscathed. If he killed Maheen, it might have made him more prone to such actions.


    Some parts of the drama are confusing. For instance, why didn’t anyone pick up Qudsia? They surely have an extra car and driver. Also, it’s strange how Nashwa and her friend are so casual around Ammar, considering he’s a murderer and rapist. You’d expect some aversion or discomfort in his presence.

    While the news and pictures of Neelam’s wedding took fans by surprise, she also did not share her husband’s name or any other details, prompting netizens to speculate.

    Amid a flood of claims regarding his name and profession, The Current brings you exclusive details of who the groom is.

    According to sources, Neelam’s husband is Mohammad Rashid, who works as an officer of Dubai Police’s Crime Investigation Department.

    Earlier, the first pictures of Neelam’s Nikah, featuring her husband, went viral on social media after being shared by celebrity photographer Abdul Samad Zia. He captioned the photos, “With this New Year, starting a ‘new chapter’ of their life, remember them in your prayers!”

    For the ceremony in Dubai, Neelam looked stunning in an all-white ensemble by local design house Baroque, paired with pearl jewelry and dewy glam makeup by Rabia Anum’s team. Her groom matched perfectly in his traditional Arabic dress, jubbah.

    In the photos making rounds on social media, the ‘Chakkar’ actor was seen with her husband for the first time, posing with the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, in the background. However, any details about the groom were not revealed.

    Thousands of social media users liked the viral photos of the new couple and extended their heartfelt wishes to them.

    For those who didn’t know, rumors about Neelam’s marriage began in November. She confirmed it earlier this week, sharing glimpses from her intimate Mayoun night and mentioning that, “All the wedding festivities have just started.”

    The picture of the couple’s Nikah ceremony had also led to unconfirmed reports claiming that Rashid was a “billionaire businessman” based in Dubai.

    Earlier, Neelam Muneer and her husband had chosen not to discuss their relationship with the media. However, her brother-in-law, Samar Ranjha, has shared details about their relationship and family.

    In a private media interaction, Samar Ranjha revealed previously unknown details.

    “We are four brothers and two sisters. My brother’s real name is Rashid, and his friends call him Shahid. He has been living in Dubai since 2006, where he runs a travel and tourism business, along with three to four restaurants,” he said.

    Karan vs. Avinash Again

    The promo begins when Avinash says, “Someone stole my coffee.”

    Karan, who is working out, responds, “I take things openly; I don’t need to steal when I want something.” Avinash teases him, saying, “Why are you getting annoyed?” Karan replies, “Does a thief’s home ever get robbed?”

    Then, Avinash says, “I can move things around however I like, right?” Karan got annoyed and responded, “If anyone touches my personal stuff, I’ll throw them out.”

    The promo caption is: “Karan indirectly warns Avinash. When will their rivalry end?”

    Avinash and Karan’s Weekend Ka Vaar Fight

    Avinash and Karan fought previously in Weekend Ka Vaar. Both had started name-calling against each other.

    VIDEO: Bohemia loses cool on stage at Soul Fest concert

    Well, it looks like Bohemia’s patience hit its limit—because when you’re a world-renowned artist, waiting for five hours backstage can really test your nerves. And that’s exactly what happened at a recent concert in Lahore.


    A video is going viral on social media in which singer Bohemia can be seen expressing anger during a concert in Lahore.


    As soon as he came on stage, Bohemia said, “I have been sitting backstage for the last five hours waiting for my performance and now you are saying that time is up.”


    The fans at the concert also started shouting in response to the singer’s statement, to which Bohemia added, “I respect this concert and its management, but there has been mismanagement here. These people have come here to listen to me, and nonsense has been going on on stage for so long.”


    Bohemia finally began his performance with the statement, “I had planned a 45-hour performance for these people; now I will go straight to jail from the stage.”

    Known for hits like Kali Denali and Ek Tera Pyar, Bohemia has a massive fan base across South Asia.

    ‘Why would Shah Rukh Khan copy me’: Sahir Lodhi finally responds to copying accusations

    Renowned television host Sahir Lodhi often compared to Shah Rukh Khan, has addressed the long- standing debate whether the Bollywood legend copies him.

    In an interview on Hasna Mana Hai, Sahir Lodhi shared his candid thoughts when an audience member mentioned that people often claim Shah Rukh Khan imitates him. The show’s host, Tabish Hashmi, urged Lodhi to address the “elephant in the room.”

    “Alright, just for the sake of being humorous, I don’t know why he does that [copies me],” he said, to which the audience responded with laughter.

    “But on a serious note, there’s no question about it. Look, two people can look similar,” Sahir added.

    The TV host expressed his admiration for Shah Rukh Khan, acknowledging his immense success in the media industry.

    “He’s a very big personality, working in major media. More power to him. I’ve met him a couple of times, interviewed him, and had other meetings with him as well. He’s a wonderful man, that’s where it ends,” Lodhi shared.

    However, he made it clear that comparisons were unnecessary, “I live in Pakistan, and I hope that after 18, 19 years, my work will speak for itself. That should be enough, instead of being compared to Shah Rukh Khan or anyone else.

    “I’m happy where I am. I’m happy with whatever I do. This is my place, my country, and my name is Sahir Lodhi, nothing else,” he concluded, receiving applause from the audience.
