    The buzz intensified when Gohar Rasheed posted another video with the caption, ‘Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai,’ adding to the curiosity. 

    In a recent appearance on “After Hours with Ushna Shah,” Gohar was asked about his relationship status. He replied, “I am not single; she’s an amazing person, and now I can’t imagine my life without her.” While he didn’t reveal his partner’s name, fans speculated it might be Kubra Khan.

I’m wondering if it happens; you guys made it happen. I swear, you guys pushed it so much… But no, it doesn’t bother me anymore, to be honest, because it has been happening for eight years, and eventually now I’m like, yeah, whatever.”

    ‘I’ve never seen anything like it’: Nora Fatehi has terrifying escape from LA fires

    In a terrifying turn of events, Canadian actress and dancer Nora Fatehi was forced to flee her Los Angeles home as raging wildfires wreaked havoc across the city, leaving thousands of residents displaced.

    In a recent Instagram post, Fatehi shared details of her frightening experience, describing the panic and chaos leading up to her hurried evacuation.

    “The wildfires are out of control, I‘ve never seen anything like it, we only got the evacuation order five minutes ago,” she said.

    The wildfires, which erupted on the night of January 07, 2025, have already consumed large areas of land, reportedly destroying over 1,500 properties and leaving 15,000 residents displaced.

     Nora Fatehi quickly packed her things and headed to the airport, hoping her scheduled flight wouldn’t be cancelled. “I packed quickly and left for the airport as I have a flight today,” she said. 

    “I hope everyone stays safe, I’ve never experienced anything like this before. This s**t is scary I’m gonna keep you guys updated,” she added.

     She wasn’t the only celebrity affected by the wildfires. Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas also witnessed the devastating blaze from her mansion in LA.

     Sharing a video of the fire, Priyanka Chopra wrote, “My thoughts are with everyone, I hope we all stay tonight.”

    Other Hollywood celebrities, including Jamie Lee Curtis, Mandy Moore, and Paris Hilton have also lost their homes to the wildfires. The fires have caused immense destruction, and the city of Los Angeles remains under siege, grappling with one of its worst natural disasters.

    As the fires keep burning, the focus is on keeping residents safe and applauding the hard work of those fighting the flames.

    Earlier, A new wildfire broke out late Wednesday in the Hollywood Hills area of Los Angeles after other fires in the region killed at least five people, destroyed hundreds of homes and forced authorities to issue evacuation orders to more than 100,000 people. City authorities reported “zero containment” due to dry, hurricane-force winds.

    At least five people have been killed in wildfires rampaging around Los Angeles, officials said Wednesday, with firefighters overwhelmed by the speed and ferocity of multiple blazes.

    Up to 1,500 buildings have burned in fires that have broken out around America‘s second biggest city, forcing over 100,000 people from their homes.

    Hurricane-force winds whipped up fireballs that leapt from house to house in the upmarket Pacific Palisades area, incinerating a swathe of California‘s most desirable real estate favored by Hollywood celebrities.

    On Wednesday evening, a new fire erupted in the Hollywood Hills, just a few hundred meters (yards) from the storied Hollywood Boulevard, sparking an evacuation order for the world’s entertainment capital.

  • Shae Gill’s real name will surprise you

    Shae Gill’s real name will surprise you

    Shae Gill shared that her actual name is  Anushae, from which her nickname ‘Shae’ was derived. It was given to her by university friends who compared her to a character from the Game of Thrones series. The name stuck and eventually became her stage name.

    Shae also spoke about her journey to unexpected stardom. Initially dreaming of a corporate career, she studied commerce and planned to become an entrepreneur.

    “I never thought about becoming a singer,” she admitted. But life took a different turn during her university years. With encouragement from her friend Iman, she began posting singing videos on Instagram, which led to her breakthrough performance on Coke Studio.

    “It happened by accident, but I am grateful to God for this fame,” she said.

    Working with the legendary Ali Sethi was a career highlight for Shae Gill.

    “I was in awe of him. His knowledge, especially from his Harvard education, is truly inspiring,” she admitted.

    Shae Gill also talked about her dream collaboration, expressing excitement about working with singer and comedian Chahat Fateh Ali Khan.

    “If I get the chance, I would love to work with Chahat Fateh Ali Khan,” she shared enthusiastically.

    Shae Gill even picked Chahat over Rahat Fateh Ali Khan as her preferred collaborator.

    When asked about her fitness routine, Shae laughed, admitting she doesn’t follow one. “I stay in shape because of my hectic schedule,” she explained.

    Earlier, Shae Gill became the breakout star of 2022 after Pasoori, her debut duo with Ali Sethi on Coke Studio, dazzled listeners across the globe. She is now singing at international concerts and has become an Equal Ambassador for Spotify.

    So what’s next for the singing sensation? We have seen Pakistani singers making their way to the big screen or television, like Atif Aslam, who had starred in the film ‘Bol’ and then ‘Sang-e-Mah’. Will Gill be following in on their footsteps?

    In an interview with Aamna Haider Isani, Gill revealed that she did receive offers to act in dramas and play the role of asinger, but she rejected it.

    “If the script would have been nice then I would have been ok..” she admitted.

    Later on in the interview, Gill agreed that a lot of Pakistani singers have decided to perform as actors, but she will only do so if she finds a good script:

    “My generation doesn’t really watch dramas all that much. We do, but very few. I’ve seen Udaari, I’ve seen Humsafar, a little bit of Bhaagi…they were outstanding..But if a good script comes along, then I could try.”

  • ‘You’re full of sh*t’; Indian comedian trolls Israelis

    ‘You’re full of sh*t’; Indian comedian trolls Israelis

    Indian stand-up comedian Sundeep Bhardwaj has been the target of Israeli trolls after he joked about the country. Since then, the stand up comedian has become a vocal advocate for Gaza and Palestine, using humour to highlight Israeli atrocities. 

    In a recent Instagram video, he responded to an Israeli trolls, sparking a debate about travel restrictions. 


    The exchange began when Instagram user Roie Liven commented on a post, saying, “Well, you are in the Maldives so you are full of sh*t. Israelis aren’t allowed to enter Maldives or other Muslim countries way before October 7. The funny part is that you can go to Israel, and eat and enjoy. I can’t go to Morocco, as I will either be denied entrance or killed by Islam. So again, Israelis aren’t allowed into the Maldives, from like 1997 or something, so you are full of sh*t again.”


    Bhardwaj, known for his sharp wit and bold commentary, didn’t hold back in his response. The comedian sarcastically addressed the comment, stating:


    “You are full of sh*t. Israelis are not allowed to enter the Maldives. Oh no, you are not allowed in the Maldives? Maybe you should stop killing people all around the world. Maybe that will help. But, one more reason to love the Maldives.”


    He added, “The problem is that Israelis always have a second passport. Or actually, a first passport. So they can travel to a lot of places where they shouldn’t be allowed to. So who’s full of sh*t now, huh?”


    Bhardwaj ended his roast with a cutting remark: “Oh, one more thing. I think you misspelled Occupied Palestine as Israel or something.”

    Shine on, Sundeep, you’re doing an excellent job.

  • Deadly Los Angeles wildfires threaten Hollywood

    Deadly Los Angeles wildfires threaten Hollywood

    A new wildfire broke out late Wednesday in the Hollywood Hills area of Los Angeles after other fires in the region killed at least five people, destroyed hundreds of homes and forced authorities to issue evacuation orders to more than 100,000 people. City authorities reported “zero containment” due to dry, hurricane-force winds.

    At least five people have been killed in wildfires rampaging around Los Angeles, officials said Wednesday, with firefighters overwhelmed by the speed and ferocity of multiple blazes.

    Up to 1,500 buildings have burned in fires that have broken out around America‘s second biggest city, forcing over 100,000 people from their homes.

    Hurricane-force winds whipped up fireballs that leapt from house to house in the upmarket Pacific Palisades area, incinerating a swathe of California‘s most desirable real estate favored by Hollywood celebrities.

    On Wednesday evening, a new fire erupted in the Hollywood Hills, just a few hundred meters (yards) from the storied Hollywood Boulevard, sparking an evacuation order for the world’s entertainment capital.

    Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said his crews were overwhelmed by the scale and speed of the unfolding disasters.

    “We’re doing the very best we can. But no, we don’t have enough fire personnel in LA County between all the departments to handle this,” he said.

    The fire raging in Pacific Palisades had consumed around 16,000 acres (6,500 hectares) as of Wednesday afternoon, taking 1,000 homes and businesses with it.

    A separate 10,600-acre (4,300-hectare) fire was burning around Altadena, north of the city, where flames tore through suburban streets.

    Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said five people were known to have perished, with more deaths feared.

    “Remember, this is still a very fluid situation, there’s zero containment on this fire. I’m really praying we don’t find more, but I don’t think that’s going to be the case,” he said.

    A firefighting helicopter drops water as the Sunset Fire burns in the Hollywood Hills with evacuations ordered on January 8, 2025 in Los Angeles, California.

    William Gonzales got out alive, but his Altadena home was gone.

    “We have lost practically everything; the flames have consumed all our dreams,” he told AFP.

    Pasadena fire chief Chad Augustin said up to 500 buildings had been lost to the flames.

    He hailed the bravery of first responders who had saved lives.

    “Our death count today would be significantly higher without their heroic actions,”Augustin told reporters.

    Vicious gusts pushed the flames, whipping red-hot embers hundreds of yards (meters) and sparking new spot fires faster than firefighters could quell them.

    Late Wednesday, a fire began in Runyon Canyon in the heart of Hollywood, close to historic sites like the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, the Walk of Fame and the El Capitan Theatre, as well as the AFP bureau.

    An evacuation order was put in place for a number of streets, all the way down to Hollywood Boulevard, as firefighters took to the skies to dump water on the blaze.

    “There is no time to delay,” Margaret Stewart of LAFD said.

    “We do not want people stuck. We want everyone safely exiting, get in your vehicles, grab your friend who doesn’t have a car, and head south.”

    The sudden eruption created gridlock on Hollywood’s streets, hampering efforts by people who live in the area — a mixture of ritzy homes and rent-controlled apartments — to leave.

    Los Angeles Department of Water and Power chief executive Janisse Quinones pleaded with people to save water after hydrants in Pacific Palisades ran dry.

    President-elect Donald Trump took to his social media platform on Wednesday to claim — wrongly — that the lack of water was the result of the state’s environmental policies.

    In fact, much of Los Angeles’ water comes from the Colorado River, and farming — rather than residential use or firefighting — takes the lion’s share of all water that flows into Southern California.

    US President Joe Biden cancelled a trip to Italy this week to instead focus on the federal response to the fires. 

    “We’re doing anything and everything, and as long as it takes to contain these fires,” Biden earlier told reporters.

    Having razed perhaps hundreds of multimillion-dollar homes, the Pacific Palisades fire looked set to be one of the costliest blazes on record.

    AccuWeather said it estimated up to $57 billion of losses had been caused in the multiple disasters.

    More than 300,000 households were without electricity in the region, according to the website outage.us. Utilities in California frequently de-energize lines during high winds to minimize the risk of new fires.

    Wildfires are part of life in the US West and play a vital role in nature.

    But scientists say human-caused climate change is altering weather patterns.

    Southern California had two decades of drought that were followed by two exceptionally wet years, which sparked furious vegetative growth — leaving the region packed with fuel and primed to burn.

    Meteorologist Daniel Swain said the fierce winds — which have gusted up to 100 miles (160 kilometers) an hour — are stronger than the usual seasonal Santa Ana winds, but are not unexpected.

    “The winds are the driver, but the real catalyst… is this incredible antecedent dryness,” he said.

    “The lack of rain and the anomalous warmth and dryness that we’ve seen the past six months. That’s something that we haven’t seen in records going back to the 1800s.”
