    Indian influencer Dolly Singh and Hania Amir call each other ‘queen’

    Hania Amir’s social media is full of photos showing her easy-dimpled smile but the actor also uses her online platform to speak up for mental health. So, when Indian actor and influencer Dolly Singh shared a post about fighting body shaming, Hania felt compelled to reshare it on her own Instagram story.

    Singh, who has faced years of negative comments about her body shape, wrote a post about her struggles with weight gain and loss. She ended with a powerful message about how she had overcome unwanted judgment.

    “Like most people, my weight goes up and down,” began Dolly. “Being naturally skinny, I tend to lose weight easily, and it’s hard to gain it back.”

    Dolly added that she no longer worries about what others say about her weight, “I love my body in every state because it supports me. I grew up despising my body, hating every bit of it, so this…this is growth.”

    Even though she’s come to terms with her body, Dolly noted that not everyone around her was as understanding, so she set boundaries for her mental well-being. “The other day, as I was about to see someone, I decided against it because I realised they’re not my safe space,” she wrote.

    Dolly explained that she had distanced herself from people and places that didn’t make her feel loved and accepted. She urged her fans and followers to be the change others needed to see. “If you could do something today, try to be someone’s safe space,” she encouraged in her post. “And count your own blessings from people in your life who don’t care about the kilos fluctuating but the smiles on your face.”

    Moved by Dolly’s powerful words, Hania wrote, “It takes a lot of courage to face your fears and insecurities, turn every mean comment into your armor, and try to give your community something positive out of the negativity you received. You’re a queen! Thank you for this strong message!”

    Dolly Singh then reshared this on her Instagram story and wrote, “Hania you’re a queen.”

    As people with large followings keep sharing positive messages against body shaming and their struggles, their message might slowly spread throughout society.

    Aik waqt main dou logon say bhi muhabbat ho sakhti hai: Nadia Afghan

    Veteran actress Nadia Afghan recently shared her opinions on the idea of giving up one’s self for love, calling it illogical and unjustified. During a recent appearance on a ‘Mazaq Raat’ episode
    During the conservation, Nadia was quite against the concept of dying for love during the debate, saying that it is nonsense. “Dying for love is just silly. It’s not true at all. Thinking someone would give up their life for another because of love doesn’t make sense.”


    She said that, “Its possible to love more than one person at the same time, despite the common belief that you can’t love multiple people at once.”
    Nadia said, “Different types of love can exist at the same time. One person might understand you well mentally, while another is crucial for your everyday life.”


    She further added, “It only takes four weeks to forget any love; someone who can keep their mobile phone off and cut off all contacts for four weeks can easily forget their love.”
    Nadia shared, “I often find myself advising young actors on love matters during shoots. It is an easy task to forget someone and live a peaceful life without them; it only takes four weeks to forget anyone.”

    Alia Bhatt faces backlash for silence on Gaza crisis, lands on ‘Block Out 2024’ list

    Bollywood superstar Alia Bhatt has joined the ranks of celebrities like Taylor Swift and Priyanka Chopra on the ‘Block Out 2024’ list, a group of entertainers and influencers being blocked by fabs for not speaking up about the Gaza genocide. Despite her recent appearances at events like the Met Gala and the Gucci Cruise show, Alia Bhatt has faced criticism for not raising her voice for Palestinians.

    The ‘Block Out 2024’ movement encourages people to unfollow and block these celebrities on social media, aiming to hit them financially by reducing their social media influence.


    Other notable names on the list include Priyanka Chopra, her husband Nick Jonas, and cricketer Virat Kohli. These celebrities have significant platforms but haven’t used them to speak out against Israel’s attacks in Gaza.


    Some big names from the West have also been added to the ‘Block Out’ list, including Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Kylie Jenner, Zendaya, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Khloe Kardashian, Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, Demi Lovato, Lizzo, Nicki Minaj, Travis Scott, Kanye West, Katy Perry, Zac Efron, Joe Jonas, Kevin Jonas, and Justin Timberlake, among others.


    The movement gained traction after this year’s Met Gala, where celebrities flaunted expensive outfits while Rafah was being mercilessly bombed.

    Faysal Qureshi reveals his favorite co-stars

    During an appearance on Nida Yasir, Danish Nawaz, and Yasir Nawaz’s show, ‘Nadan Maizban,’ actor Faysal Qureshi shared which actors he wants to work with again. When asked who he thinks he has the best on-screen chemistry with, the Bashar Momin actor quickly said, “I always enjoy working with Naumaan Ijaz.” He also admitted, “I get intimidated acting opposite Naumaan.”


    Talking about his female co-stars, Faysal said, “I enjoyed working with Zara Noor Abbas. I only did two scenes with her because she didn’t continue with that drama.” He added, “Madiha Imam joined the team, and I saw Zara’s acting. She was amazing. Madiha is also very good.”


    Qureshi mentioned other talented actors he’s worked with. “I worked with Ushna Shah in Bashar Momin and Bheegi Palkain, and she was brilliant. Iqra Aziz is phenomenal. Sajal is excellent. Faryal Mehmood is also very good.”

    During the same interview, Faysal said he enjoys comedies more than other genres. He explained, “Coincidentally, all three of my ongoing dramas have me playing a negative character. If I play too much of the same thing, I stop enjoying it. I think comedy feels like a paid vacation. Serious characters can be draining.”


    Faysal also shared how he keeps his personal and acting life separate, especially after playing intense roles. He said, “By the time I go home, I’ve already forgotten the day’s dialogues and I don’t know the next day’s either. If we need to reshoot scenes, the set assistants remind me that we just shot the same scene yesterday, but I don’t remember. I still ask to read the script.”

    In 2019, Akhtar was reported to have said, “If she [Bendre] doesn’t marry me, I’ll kidnap her!” He later used his YouTube channel to deny the statement, calling it completely false. Bendre, surprised by the rumor, joked, “Thank God for that. Maybe that has made my career!”
    Akhtar also addressed claims in 2019 that he carried a picture of Bendre in his wallet and wanted to marry her. He firmly denied all allegations, saying, “I never met Sonali Bendre. I’ve seen her in films, and she is indeed beautiful, but I’ve not been a fan.”


    He praised Bendre’s bravery in fighting cancer, saying, “I became her fan when she showed how bravely she struggled against her illness. But, my brother, I had nothing to do with her. These are all lies.”

    Work first, love later: Haris Waheed’s advice for actors

    Actor and model Haris Waheed appeared as a guest on Journalist Maliha Rehman’s YouTube show and made some interesting revelations. In the show, he opened up about his romantic scenes with co-actors and shared a list of his favourite co-stars.

    Talking about romance with co-actors, Haris Waheed said, “It’s not recommended to get romantically involved with co-stars because you’re here to work, not to pursue personal desires. If someone wants romance, they should do so outside of their workplace.”

    Giving some leeway, Waheed added, “If there is honesty between the two people, it will eventually make its way.”

    Talking about his favourite co-stars, Waheed said, “I enjoyed working with Zara Noor Abbas in Jhoom. In Jaan E Jahan, Tabraiz and Gulraiz also had great on-screen chemistry. Credit goes to Qasim Ali Mureed too; the chemistry you see is because of Nawal, me, and Qasim Ali Mureed. I also recently enjoyed working with Mashal Khan. Working with Sania Saeed is something I love. Saboor Aly, who I worked with in ‘Mujhe Wida Ker’, is naturally subtle and reactive. Working with her was a great experience.”
