In her application, she accused Liaquat of forcing her to make adult videos to “send to people abroad” and locking her up for five days if she refused to do it. She also said he “forced her to appear before non-mehram men”. She also accused him of being impotent and consuming drugs.

In an exclusive interview with Dunya News, Shah said, “he (Liaquat) was very cruel. He would lock me in the room for four days straight. He wouldn’t give food to me on time and would keep me up all night long. I’m a child, I’m not even old enough. He would humiliate me. He would bring every single matter to me, be it the maids or even the media, anything he disliked, he would misbehave with me. He used to push me around and even threatened that he would shoot me. He even tried to strangle me.”

Shah told the media outlet that Liaquat abused her and at the time she felt like she was being punished. She likened the experience to having been in “hell” and said that if anyone from her family was harmed, Liaquat would be responsible.

Liaquat took to Instagram and shared a video of Shah that he claimed is two days old in which she denied news of the divorce and asked people to leave them in peace if they couldn’t wish them well. Liaquat said if they hadn’t contracted a nikah, he would’ve revealed the “truth” to the entire nation, which he claimed would shock everyone. He requested journalists and the media to investigate Shah’s appearance in order to judge if he could’ve harmed her in these three months.

As per reports, Shah, who tied the knot with Liaqaut in February 2022, demanded Haq Mehar in her suit which includes a house worth Rs110 million in Karachi, Rs250,000 in cash, one Toyota Corolla GLI 2022 model, 3 tola gold jewellery worth around Rs400,000.

While announcing his marriage Aamir revealed that his new wife is, “Saraiki, lovely, charming, simple and darling. I would like to request all of my well-wishers, please pray for us. I have just passed the dark tunnel, it was a wrong turn,” Liaquat expressed.

Earlier she denied her split with Aamir in a video message.

Aijaz Aslam makes revelations about Urwa Hocane

Senior actor Aijaz Aslam recently appeared with his wife Sabeen on The Couple Show hosted by Aagha Ali and Hina Altaf.

On being asked about a leading lady who has attitude problems, unprofessional and needs to work on her behaviour, the Nand star gave a shocking answer.

Aijaz named Urwa Hocane and stated, “Although I haven’t worked with her but I have heard (from friends and colleagues) that it is Urwa, she gets very angry on the sets, quickly loses her temper and even instructs the director on creative aspects.”

The hosting duo kept nodding while Aslam was talking, however Aagha mentioned later that he recently met the Tich Button diva at an event and felt that she was grounded.

Last year the Udaari star revealed that she regrets leaving Meray Paas Tum Ho after shooting a schedule of it.

Appearing on Vasay Chaudhry’s show Ghabrana Mana Hai, Urwa said: “It is one of my biggest regrets and yes I was offered the role of Miss Hania in Meray Paas Tum Ho.”

The actor further revealed that she had even shot a few scenes for the drama. During the show, Chaudhry also played a clip from the drama serial that featured Urwa and Humayun Saeed.

Urwa further shared: “After wrapping up my initial shoot, I started working on the production of my upcoming film Tich Button when Nadeem Baig called me and said that Mohammad Ahmed Sahab, who was playing the role of my father, has to leave for Canada so I had to spare a week to shoot my scenes with him.”

“At that point, it was impossible for me as I was so caught up in production work. So I had to leave the project because of the date clash and I regret my decision,” said the actor further.

Hira Mani was later roped in to play Miss Hania and the actor received a lot of applause for her performance. Meray Paas Tum Ho was a blockbuster hit breaking all records and the finale was even screened in cinemas with sold-out shows.

Meanwhile, Hocane also talked about her first venture as a producer Tich Button which features Farhan Saeed, Iman Aly, Sonya Hussayn and Feroze Khan.

“The film will be release, once the cinemas are fully operational again,” said Hocane.

Abdullah Qureshi releases new single with Haider Mustehsan, ropes in Saheefa Jabbar

Singer Abdullah Qureshi has released his new single after a year’s break in collaboration with emerging musician Haider Mustehsan, featuring actor Saheefa Jabbar.

The Bhool star dons a refreshing look in the video.

Abdullah has carved his own niche in the music fraternity for 10 years. While churning out new music isn’t an easy task, Qureshi is on a roll with his new single in collaboration with Haider, the new sensation in the fraternity and also a popular choice of the Gen Z.

Hasda Rehnda is a product of Qureshi and Mustehsan’s hard work and talent. Abdullah formerly wrote this love song which has a fun vibe to it and later on when this became a duo, Haider added his own spin to it.

The song has graced the screens with a simple yet beautiful video featuring Saheefa Jabbar Khattak. Saheefa dons a simple look for her character while we see both the musicians in their element as well. Together, the melody as well as lyrics make for a single you would definitely hum along.

Last year Jabbar took to her Instagram stories to announce that she hasn’t quit acting, she has just taken a break because of lack of good scripts and progressive roles for women.

The Beti diva questioned that why do our women in drama remain oppressed despite there being diverse women in society.

“There are no good scripts out there. The scripts which are being offered to me at the moment are not up to the standards of storytelling I feel comfortable endorsing,” she said. “I am writing this today because a few rumours have made their way back to me and it does not feel nice to hear untrue things about yourself.”

Her posts raised important issues regarding portrayal of women in Pakistani dramas.

Jabbbar was last seen opposite Faysal Qureshi and Aijaz Aslam in Log Kya Kahenge.

‘No dance sequence was recorded’: Saba Qamar-Bilal Saeed discharged from Masjid Wazir Khan case

The acquittal pleas of singer Bilal Saeed and actor Saba Qamar in the case of alleged desecration of Wazir Khan mosque were accepted by Judge Muhammad Mushtaq in Lahore on Monday.

No scene of dancing was recorded in the mosque paresis, the acquittal plea maintained that claimants filed the case solely to blackmail celebrities. The pleas claimed that they obtained permission from the Auqaf Department to film the ‘Qabool Hay’ song shooting and that no witnesses had objected to the song being shot in the mosque.

It was argued that because the claimant’s lawyer, Farhat Manzoor Chandio, was not present when the filming was rerecorded and there was no evidence of a violation of the mosque’s sanctity, both parties should be acquitted.

A judicial magistrate had previously issued bailable warrants for singer Bilal Saeed’s arrest for failing to appear in court in a case of alleged desecration of the Wazir Khan mosque with his co-accused local actress Saba Qamar.

Both of the accused had filed for a personal appearance exemption. The Ghabrana Nahi Hai diva had gone to the UAE for professional assignments and would return by March 31, according to the accused’s lawyer, who also claimed that Saeed was unable to appear due to illness.

The reel pair landed in hot waters in 2020 when a controversial video from the shoot of their song went viral on the internet. A year later, news of the issuance of the arrest warrants of both the celebrities started circulating on the internet.

The celebrity duo have now clarified the news about their arrest in a statement issued by their lawyers.

As soon as the news went viral, the Cheekh diva and Saeed’s lawyers released an official statement regarding their arrest warrants. The details stated that their arrest warrants have been canceled and the original orders of the court have been misinterpreted to malign the characters of their clients, who are law-abiding citizens of the country.

While shooting for Bilal Saeed’s song Qubool Hai in Wazeer Khan Mosque, Lahore, the Hindi Medium diva was seen twirling for a scene of the music video.

Both the celebrities received fierce criticism from the netizens for violating the sanctity of the mosque. Later on, the Teri Khair Mangdi singer also posted an apology video and the matter was somewhat resolved.

Veteran film star Shaan Shahid recently interviewed former Prime Minister, Imran Khan for an Eid special show.

Now during a press interaction, Imran has bashed Shaan for his set’s creative elements especially lighting. “Agar apki light sahi nahi to sara kharab lagta hai.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by People Magazine Pakistan (@peoplemagazinepakistan)

On his recent podcast, PTI chairman stated that the host asked very long questions, he should have made it crisp.

The former PM opened up on his show that his mother used to always tell him that he is a very innocent and straight person and hence gets betrayed by everyone around him.

He revealed, “My mother used to say that mera beta bohat seedha hai, subse dhoka khata hai.”

Khan added that his wife, Bushra gets angry if he does not serve his guests well.

He also claimed that the Sharif family is preparing to launch a campaign against him after Eid.

Last year the former PM paid his condolences when the Khuda Kay Liye star’s mother passed away.

Soon after Shaan announced the news, messages of condolences began to pour in, Imran expressed his grief and extended his condolences to Shaan and his family.

@ImranKhanPTI pls remember her in your prayers 🙏🏼 as she always prayed for you.

‘Husbands fat-shaming wives is justified’: Hira Mani opens up on weight issues, losing 8 Kgs

Actor Hira Mani recently shared in an interview alongside her husband Salman Saqib that husbands who taunt their wives on weight gain are essentially helping women maintain their bodies.

” I can’t do hard weights. I do, however, take a clean diet. I have a terrible sweet tooth. So whenever I treat myself with Falooda, I train harder.”

Mani was then inquired if he ever had to lose weight. “I did,” he told the host. “I exercised, I did calorie deficit, portion control, intermittent fasting, OMAD.” Hira chimed in, “No matter how busy we are, Mani and I make sure to go for a run or a walk once a day. He [Mani] helped me shed the extra weight I had put on. I had no trainer this time around, Mani helped me through it and the results were amazing.”

She added, “I had gained so much weight! I weighed around 64 kgs. That’s when Mani pointed out.” Mani further commented, “Yes, but remember you watched that drama serial of yours.” Hira recalled, “Yes! I saw that show and couldn’t recognise myself onscreen and thought, ‘Who is this aunty?’ That’s when Mani said, let’s go for a run. He helped me reduce 10 kgs in three months. No other trainer could help me achieve this target.”

Mani quipped, “She also controlled her diet.”

The Kashf star went on to reveal how Mani ‘taunts’ her often with how well-maintained Bollywood actors are. “He would taunt me so much!” Hira shared, “Mani would often say look at Katrina, look at Kareena – well, even Kareena is fat now – look at Deepika! I keep telling him that I am not Deepika or Katrina. I have two kids! He taunts. But I think that’s fair too. Husbands who taunt their wives are justified in doing so if it helps women to lose their weight.” Hira then goes on to thank Mani.

“But even Hira taunts me now!” Mani remarked. “She taunts me as well now. She says look at Hrithik, look at Shahid. So now, I have to lose weight as well.” Hira then said, “I mean, Imran Khan has gotten so many treatments done on his face, his hair. So has Maryam Nawaz Sharif. So I said, ‘Mani, you should also get a hair transplant.’

Earlier in an interview with Urdu News, she said that she would have married her husband Salman Saqib even if he was already married to someone else.

The Sun Yaara star stated, “People often ask me why I credit my success to Mani. My only response to that is that there is no one else like him. He is a supportive husband, a responsible father, and a talented artist.”

The Do Bol diva also talked about the controversy surrounding her confessions in an interview with senior actor Samina Pirzada. she said, “People criticise me because I stole Mani’s number from my friend’s phone and messaged him behind her back, but the truth is, I have no regrets. People can say what they want,” adding, ” Even if Mani was married to someone else, I would have married him regardless.”

Hira and Salman recently appeared on Ahsan Khan’s chat show, Timeout with Ahsan Khan and she revealed that Mani makes new ids on social media to abuse political rivals of the opposition party as he supports Mustafa Kamal.

On the work front, Hira is currently featuring in Yun Toh Pyar Hai Buhat opposite Affan Waheed.

Megan Fox, Machine Gun Kelly open up on drinking each other’s blood, Vampire community warns

Hollywood celebrity couple, Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, who started dating in 2020, have sparked up their love for each other at a number of events leaving no doubts that they are together.

The lovebirds have graced many big-ticket occasions together, and every time, fans couldn’t stop themselves from adoring the couple. They have also said several times that they have serious future plans for each other and will continue staying together. It’s not the first time that the headlines are now in the speculation zone over the couple.

Whether it’s their occasion appearance or a kiss, their keen followers always want to know every detail. And in recent times, the couple has revealed something really shocking about their relationship, blood drinking.

The couple has accepted the fact that they drink each other’s blood and love doing that. In fact, Machine Gun Kelly even told that he carries a necklace that contains a blood drop of his girlfriend. Explaining it, he said people carry something or the other of the significance of their partner. “I carry her DNA,” he’s said.

Drinking each other’s blood is a little extreme though. And the reaction to this statement has been mixed, some were in favour and considered it a bold and daring representation of love while some couldn’t unwrinkle their faces in disgust at the fact of drinking one’s partner’s blood and say that the couple has been watching too much Twilight.

After they mentioned that they occasionally perform the ritual of drinking each other’s blood, it went viral and caught the attention of many.

Real-Life Vampire Organizations have warned them about the possible risks of drinking blood after the news of the couple slurping each other’s blood went public. Mentioning that although doing it is fine and there are people who decide to go for it, there are certain precautions that are needed to be kept in mind while performing the ritual. An important thing is to get tested for any blood-borne disease prior to trying to swallow someone’s blood.

They have highlighted the fact that even though having a monogamous relationship decreases the risk of getting diseases to a great level, yet there are possibilities of getting some ailments even then.

Hadiqa terms Kanika as thief, ‘Baby Doll’ singer hits back: Everything you need to know about this feud

Star-singer Hadiqa Kiani took to her Instagram stories to address the frequent thieving of her songs. This time around, Bollywood singer Kanika Kapoor’s rendition of Boohey Barian, titled Buhe Baariyan, has become the focal point of Hadiqa’s anger.

Posted on Saregama Music’s YouTube channel, the song has credited Gourov Dasgupta and Shruti Rane as composers, with lyrics being credited to Kunwar Juneja.

Turning to her Instagram stories, the Dobara star spoke out about yet another rendition of her classic ‘Boohey Barian’ by an Indian singer adding to the long list. “Another day and another shameless rendition of the song my mother wrote,” Hadiqa penned along with the clip of Kapoor’s latest release.

In 1998, Hadiqa released her second album, Roshni, that featured songs which still remain etched onto the hearts of music fanatics. Amongst the many songs on the album, Boohey Barian, the sixth single on the album by Kiani, resonated and struck a chord with so many people that it is still considered to be one of the most well-known Pakistani songs.

In her stories, the Zindagi Gulzar Hai crooner addresses how in “another shameless rendition of the song [her] mother wrote,” no one has asked for permission or given her royalties, using the song as an easy “money-making scheme.” She then lists examples of when the song has been stolen.

She mentions that if she can chart the due process of royalties when covering songs, others continue to fall short, especially given that she is alive and well. She talks about how she wants to be flattered by these covers, given that it can be seen as a form of paying tribute, but others profiting off of her work is simply not right. Hadiqa also makes it clear that she has nothing against the singer or anyone else who sings her song – it is the process that irks her. She ends the first story by saying, “Anyways, the theft of Pakistani music continues.”

Ace director Nabeel Qureshi took to his stories to call Kanika Kapoor a “chor,” suggesting that Hadiqa Kiani take action against the song, given the YouTube channel a strike. He stated that the need to take a stand is essential.

The Dobara star took to her stories once again to double down on the fact that she owns all rights to Boohey Barian, stating that with all documents proving her ownership, her team will be taking action. She reiterates that no company or entity has been given masters or rights to the song. She ends her story by stating that she has stayed silent for long enough.

Recently, an Indian influencer Diet Sabya claimed that Saregama owns the rights, whereas another claim stated that the original owner sold the full rights to the master, speculating that Hadiqa’s mother may have sold the rights to a label in Pakistan, which was then probably acquired by Saregama.

This was promptly refuted by Hadiqa, who reiterated that she has never sold any rights to her songs. She went on to mention that many people have illegally claimed her songs since the 90s, but she and her team are now taking appropriate action to prevent this from happening, ensuring justice is served.

Now Kapoor has responded to Kiani’s accusations of plagiarising her popular hit number, Boohey Barian on her social media handle.

Speaking to Hindustan Times, the Baby Doll hit-maker alleged that anyone who heard the song would know that from “antras to everything”, the song is “completely original”.

Kapoor told the publication, “It’s a folk song and there are many that we have heard online and nobody has ever said anything about it.”

The Kamlee crooner also mentioned that they have not “copy-pasted” any old folk song.

“We used two lines as inspiration. It is very unfair to the writer Kunwar Juneja and Shruti Rane who composed this new song. Also, it is unfair to me if anybody says that I am trying to steal someone’s work,” she had explained.

The singer also expressed her disappointment with the allegations about “not giving them right credit”.

She commented, “I think instead of going negative, we have to come together and help each other to grow.”

Adding to this, she also stated that nothing was done intentionally.

“We all are credible people. There has not been any intent of fleecing any videos or stealing anybody’s work,” she noted.

Meanwhile, the Chittiyan Kalaiyan artist extended her apology and said that she was sorry “if they upset anybody’s emotions”.

To this end, Kapoor also said that she had huge respect for “Pakistani singers and music”.

‘Shut up, delusional’: Ghana Ali grills Maryam Nawaz for saying, ‘this fitna, joker should be crushed’ about Imran Khan

Actor Ghana Ali took to her Instagram stories to slam Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz for her recent statements about former PM Imran Khan.

After the oath of Hamza, PML-N Vice-President Maryam Nawaz told media that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is devoted and hardworking person, whose governance as Punjab Chief Minister was called the ‘Punjab speed’ which would now soon be called ‘Pakistan speed.’ She said that Shehbaz Sharif had set high standards of governance and he would also deliver as the Prime Minister of the country through good governance.

Maryam claimed that the whole nation had seen that PTI Chairman Imran Khan had spread ‘mischief’ (Fitna), and the sooner this ‘Fitna’ is crushed, the better it is for the country.

Calling PTI the party of ‘jokers’, Maryam said the way its so-called leaders had flouted the courts’ decisions on voting on the no-trust motion and the oath-taking of Hamza was simply childish. “Kids behave the way PTI leaders have behaved in the last few weeks,” she said, adding, “Today’s oath-taking was not important only for Hamza, but for the people of Punjab, who now have got their rights.”

She said, “If the PTI leaders did not reform themselves and continue to show same hostile behaviour, they should all be thrown in prisons.”

Referring to sad incident at the Masjid-e-Nabvi, she said, “It was planned beforehand, it brought a bad name to the country. Arrests have been made in Saudi Arabia in this connection, and here in Pakistan, too, the law will take its course.”

Minister of State for Petroleum Massadaq Malik told media that focus of the government is resolution of public issues. “There would be relief in load-shedding during Eid holidays and after Eid, the situation vis-à-vis load-shedding would further improve,” he said.

Malik also criticized PTI and its leaders for flouting the Constitution and law. He expressed displeasure over mockery of law in Punjab. He said the country can only move forward by following the Constition and ensuring rule of law. PML-N MNA Shaista Pervaiz Malik said the people of Punjab got the Chief Minister and now is the turn of PML-N to deliver top the masses.

Recently she reacted to Shehbaz Sharif taking over the Prime Minister’s coveted seat.

Ghana took to her Instagram stories to state that now that Shehbaz has taken over she wants him to complete the motorway projects.
