    Every man does not look at women with lust: Hira Tareen

    Pakistani actress and model Hira Tareen has said that its not necessary that every man only looks at women with lust.
    Recently, Hira Tareen participated in the FHM, where she openly discussed various issues.

    During the program, the actress confessed, “I am a feminist, but being a feminist does not mean that women’s rights are spoken of in one tone. I was invited to participate in the women’s march but did not participate because the march serves many purposes, it is not solely for women’s rights and autonomy.”
    She said that while there is talk of equal rights for women in the country, there is also a discussion of superiority over men.
    “Violence against women is condemnable in every way, but it is also a reality that the pleasures enjoyed by women in Pakistan are nowhere to be found.”
    She clarified her point by saying that women are respected in Pakistan. “Now, if a woman goes out in bold clothes, people will definitely see her, but men looking does not always mean they see women with lust and dirty thoughts.”

    She stressed that men who leer at womenbwill also see women in a veil, hijab, or shalwar kameez in the same light.

    Divorce breaks you, shouldn’t be an ‘easy way out’: Juggan Kazim

    Actress and television host Juggan Kazim has made a comeback in the mini-series Gunah, proving that she still has the ability to captivate audiences. Despite facing challenges, including a difficult divorce, she now has a wonderful family with her second husband and openly shares her experiences.

    During a guest appearance on Masarrat Misbah’s show, Juggan shared valuable advice for singles considering remarriage, especially moms. She emphasized the importance of taking the time to meet the person, involving the kids in the process, and making a thoughtful decision. Juggan herself followed this approach with her second husband, Faisal Naqvi, taking six months before committing to the relationship. Although Faisal’s kids initially took time to accept their relationship, things eventually worked out.


    She said, “Women with children should take a cautious approach, and involve their children in the decision-making process.”
    The actress-turned-host highlighted the significance of investing time and effort into blending families, especially when stepchildren are involved. According to Kazim, “Patience is key, as it took time for Faisal’s grown-up children to warm up to their new family dynamics.”

    Juggan also expressed her concerns about the trend of easy divorces in today’s society. She shared her personal struggle and highlighted the toll it takes on individuals internally. While she discouraged stigmatizing divorce, she expressed worry that society is normalizing the easy way out, which could influence younger generations.

  • Gohar Rasheed sparks conversation on color bias in entertainment industry

    Gohar Rasheed sparks conversation on color bias in entertainment industry

    Popular actor Gohar Rasheed has talked about a concerning trend in the entertainment world, stating that just having fair skin is seen as enough to become an actor. He pointed out that some people even spend a lot of money on injections to lighten their skin quickly and get roles in the industry.
    The actor from ‘The Legend of Maula Jatt’ highlighted, with a bit of criticism, that having fair skin might be the only thing that matters in getting good opportunities in the entertainment field.

    “No matter how good someone is at acting, they will be chosen for roles just because they have fair skin,” he said.

    Pointing out that someone with fair skin might not even know how good they are at acting, Gohar said that the production company still recognizes their talent and tells them about their skill in acting.
    “After the fair complexion injection, the person’s journey to becoming an actor begins, and they are offered a variety of roles,” he said.

    He asked everyone to recognize biases and deal with the fact that there is racism in our nation. He said, “We need to admit that we are a racist nation.”
    When someone asked Gohar how long it took for him to realize he doesn’t meet traditional beauty standards, he said, “I used to mention I wasn’t conventionally good-looking, but I have realised that I am the most conventional.”
    Explaining further, he said, “Being conventional means being like most people, and I feel like I connect with most folks.” This implies that his personality fits in with what’s typical in society, unlike those who stand out mainly because of their exceptionally good looks, particularly fair skin.
    “People with fair complexions are unconventional and unique,” Gohar stated.

    Many actors in the entertainment industry have admitted that having fair skin helped them get chances, while others have shared that they initially faced rejection because of their darker complexion.
