I’m glad he started thinking about it because I think it will be a great film for all of us to do and for audiences to watch.” However, he mentioned that the movie is still in the early stages, so fans shouldn’t expect it to release soon.

    Hamza Ali Abbasi advocates for a positive set environment.

    He may have played the cold-blooded villain of ‘The Legend of Maula Jutt’, but Hamza Ali Abbasi is known to be one of the most easy-going people in the entertainment industry.

    The star spoke about the importance of having an enjoyable atmosphere on set, where everyone, including the cast and crew, joke around. After a five-year break, he returned to TV with a remarkable performance as Shahram in ‘Jaan-e-Jahan’ released in December 2023. “I actually had to break down like a child,” recalled Hamza.


    “It was my favourite scene,” he said, reflecting on a poignant moment in the show. “Everyone is very chilled and laidback. No one is hot-headed in our team, cast or crew. Everyone is funny.” Despite the show having a romantic aspect, Hamza emphasized that it’s not just a love story, praising the writers for creating a complex plot. “It’s a very, very good package,’ he said seriously. “I just really hope you like Jan-a-Jahan.” Hamza also has camaraderie with his onscreen brothers and the supportive team of writers, hoping viewers would enjoy the show as much as he enjoyed working on it.

    For one of the endless days of celebration, Radhika wore a beautiful gown made by Mohammed Ashi, a designer from Saudi Arabia. The gown was light pink with crystal embellishments and had a long train.

    She also wore a custom-made Versace gown inspired by New York’s buildings, and a colorful dress by Ashish Gupta paying tribute to disco culture. Her Manish Malhotra lehenga was traditional but with a modern touch.


    But it’s not just her clothes that caught attention. Radhika’s jewelry included diamond accessories and traditional Indian jewels.


    One memorable look was during her ‘hastakshar ceremony’ where she wore a special lehenga by Tarun Tahiliani. The outfit had beautiful paintings and intricate craftsmanship, showing India’s rich heritage.

    Arooj Aftab to perform alongside Dua Lipa, SZA

    The accolades don’t stop pouring in for Pakistani Grammy winning singer Arooj Aftab.
    The ‘Mohabbat’ crooner will perform at the famous Glastonbury Festival in London this June. Aftab, known for her soulful singing and mixing classical and modern music, shared the news on her Instagram account.
    “UK make plans! We are back at Glastonbury, June 2024.”
    Aftab also posted the exciting line-up on the carousel, promising performances from both classic and new artists including PJ Harvey and Cyndi Lauper.


    Female artists will headline two out of three slots at Britain’s Glastonbury Festival in June for the first time, with Dua Lipa and SZA joining rock-band Coldplay, organizers announced on Thursday.
    Country pop star Shania Twain will perform in the Sunday afternoon “legend” slot. British-Albanian Dua Lipa, known for hits like New Rules and One Kiss, will debut on the Pyramid Stage shortly after releasing her third album, Radical Optimism.


    Coldplay, veterans at Worthy Farm, will headline for a record fifth time. The inclusion of US R&B star SZA is a surprise in the lineup. The 34-year-old’s acclaimed album SOS won a Grammy last month, and her single Kill Bill has been on the British charts for months.
    The festival, which sold out in under an hour when tickets were released in November, faced criticism last year for an all-male top billing.
    Earlier this year, Aftab missed out on double Grammy wins after not winning in the two categories she was nominated for. The Mohabbat singer received nominations for Global Music Performance and Best Jazz Alternate Album.


    Aftab’s album Love in Exile got nominated for Best Jazz Alternate Album, and Shadow Forces got recognized for new vocal or instrumental global music. It’s important to mention that Aftab became the first Pakistani artist to win music’s top honors in 2022.

  • Mishi Khan’s tip to nutritionists: Make healthy eating wallet-friendly

    Mishi Khan’s tip to nutritionists: Make healthy eating wallet-friendly

    Mishi Khan has had it with hefty price tags on healthy foods. The TV host and former star spoke about nutritionists on TV giving advice for Ramadan. Taking to Instagram, she said in a video, “I heard some nutritionists on Ramadan shows telling people what to eat and what not to eat. They say things like cereals and milk, but can everyone buy that? How can a person afford cereal in such inflation? People are barely surviving and running their kitchens. Many are hardly managing one meal; people are living in big families of six people or more. I don’t understand how they come up with such unrealistic ideas. Are you guys unaware of the inflation? You are advising poor people to take cereal, fluids, and other expensive items.”

  • Anzela Abbasi is quitting acting

    Anzela Abbasi is quitting acting

    Anzela Abbasi is from one of the most talented families in entertainment. Her dad Shamoon Abbasi and mom Javeria Abbasi are big stars, and her aunt Anoushay Abbasi is also a famous actress. She herself tried acting, doing a few projects, but later she decided to focus more on modeling.

    Anzela hasn’t acted for a while, and people haven’t seen her on TV lately. But now, she’s getting ready to begin a music career. In an interview, she said she’s always dreamed of doing music, and now she’s finally following that dream. She explained why she left dramas and acting.

    Anzela explained that she’s not trying to change anything, it’s just that people don’t know her well. Being different doesn’t mean she’s bad, she said, acknowledging that her uniqueness can be hard for some to understand, but she’s okay with it.

    “Acting runs in the family, and I pursued it once I became an adult. While it was nice, it didn’t fully satisfy my artistic side. Pakistani dramas, for those who have watched them, often revolve around typical household issues and portray women in a derogatory manner. It didn’t resonate with the person I am. People started seeing me as just another actress from dramas, but in reality, I’m not. I’m a simple, soft-spoken person, and because I don’t do anything extravagant, I was labeled as plain and simple. I’m not like that. People who watch my dramas are surprised to see me speaking English on my Instagram because they have a different perception of me.”

  • Amid ‘Katespiracy’, Meghan Markle returns to Instagram

    Amid ‘Katespiracy’, Meghan Markle returns to Instagram

    Meghan Markle, the wife of Britain’s Prince Harry, is launching a new lifestyle brand seemingly named after the couple’s oceanside California home. An Instagram page and website for American Riviera Orchard went live without advance warning Thursday, both featuring a gold-colored crest for the new venture. 

    The logo featured the word Montecito, the celebrity enclave where the couple have lived since 2020, which is close to Santa Barbara — itself sometimes known as the American Riviera. The social media account’s biography simply reads: “by Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex.”

    A representative for the duchess confirmed her participation in the new venture to AFP, without providing further details. American Riviera Orchard appears to be a kitchen and lifestyle-themed brand.

    Thursday’s launch was accompanied by a grainy, retro-style promotional video in which Meghan Markle is seen arranging flowers and baking in a kitchen. A mailing list offered users the chance to sign up to become “the first to know about products, availability, and updates from American Riviera Orchard.”

    Harry and Meghan, who is American, quit royal duties in 2020 and relocated to California. Their official Instagram handle has not posted since then. Meghan’s personal social media accounts and former lifestyle blog were both closed before the couple married.

    In recent years, the couple have pursued a variety of media ventures. They criticised Britain’s royal family in a string of high-profile outpourings including a Netflix documentary series and Harry’s blockbuster autobiography Spare.

    The couple had a Spotify-exclusive podcast deal, which came to an end last year after just one show. Netflix also dropped an animated series created by Meghan but an executive for the streaming giant in January said multiple projects from the couple, including a movie, remained “in very early development.”
