    ‘#10yearchallenge’: 5 Pakistani celebrities that haven’t aged

    With the year coming to a close, netizens are taking all sorts of challenges to celebrate the end of the year and the turn of the decade. One such challenge that has been going viral on social media is the #10YearChallenge. So we decided to put together a list of celebrities who have not aged in the past ten years. Check out the list below:

    Mahnoor Baloch

    While talking about Pakistani celebrities who have not aged, the first name that comes to mind is Mahnoor Baloch. She looks like she hasn’t aged a day since her first drama serial Marvi and honestly, we need tips!

    Shehzad Roy 

    Man of the mystery, Shehzad Roy seem immune to ageing. Shehzad Roy was born in 1977 and started his singing career in 1995. The musician has looked the same since his Zindagi days. Maybe he can tell us what fountain of youth he has been drinking from?

    Hadiqa Kiani

    Its been 25 years since Hadiqa Kiani released her first album, and she still looks the same. In 1995, Hadiqa released her first album Raaz. The singer is now 46 and we are baffled at how someone her age can look so young.

    Humayun Saeed

    Humayun Saeed, who turns 50 next year, is famous for his youthful looks. Humayun has the same charming smile he had a decade ago.

    Shoaib Malik 

    Age is something that the 38-year old former captain of Pakistan’s cricket team Shoaib Malik has managed to keep at bay so far. Shoaib has come a long way since making his debut in the national team in 1999 but nothing much has changed about him in terms of his good looks.

    “I will hang myself if I am found guilty of fraud and corruption. Some elements are targeting me and continuously doing propaganda. I challenge all those who are involved,” a teary-eyed Meera had said.

    She went onto say that much like the character she has played on screen, she is a heroine in real life as well.

    “I am a heroine in my real life,” stated the actor. “My whole life and career are based on struggle and hard work. I’m the superstar of Pakistan, I’m the heroine of Pakistan. In films and in real life, I live in the character of a heroine.”

    In a recent interview, Ali revealed that Ramsha is his first cousin.

    “Now there we were holding hands and we had to look into each other’s eyes and deliver all these lines [in Ghissi Piti Mohabbat],” he added.

    Abbas further shared that he had to tell director Ahmad Bhatti that they had this problem.

    “Then the ice broke, we sat down because we were destroying the scenes and we decided to put the cousinship aside and to focus on work,” he said further.

    ‘Whatever’: Meesha Shafi hits back at trolls

    Meesha Shafi has hit back at trolls in the classiest possible manner.

    Sharing a picture of herself, in which she is tossing her head back, Shafi wrote: “Whatever.”

    When a Twitter user left a bitter comment under the picture, Meesha hit back with a sassy reply.

    Meesha also posted a photo from last year when she went to Lahore Session Court to record her statement regarding her harassment case against Ali Zafar.

    Highlighting the stares of people in the picture Meesha posted, a Twitter user recalled the time when middle-aged lawyers passed comments on them. Agreeing with the user, Meesha replied “Yup. That’s where women have to go. To explain being harassed while being harassed.”

    Meesha also gave a fitting response to a troll who write that he is trying to find the beauty and princess in a picture of the singer’s.

    Meanwhile, Meesha also lauded her lawyer Nighat Dad, who was recently the subject of online hate and trolling. Dad is representing Meesha in court.

    “Out of so many brave lawyers on my legal team who are fighting this long, hard battle, only the woman gets singled out, the woman gets smeared & maligned, the woman is attacked, the woman is snubbed during court proceedings. Says a lot about the attackers!,” Meesha wrote, adding that Dad is a queen.

    Fahad defends Jalan, Nand

    Meanwhile, Fahad has vehemently defended his drama serials Jalan and Nand..

    Defending Nand and Jalan, Fahad said: “People are watching Nand and Jalan. If they weren’t watching the dramas then they won’t be talking about it.”

    “I am proud of Balaa, Cheekh, Nand and Jalan. We can’t educate people with every drama but we do what we can. I try to attract people with unique titles of my dramas. That’s why my dramas have such titles. If Nand had another name, people might not watch it.”

    He continued: “This is the age of social media and people are watching ‘pocket films’. To keep the audiences engaged for 26 to 30 episodes, we try to make content that creates curiosity and keep viewers hooked.”

    Fahad then went on to say that people and critics should wait for a drama to end before passing their judgements and remarks.

    “People are talking and criticising them [Jalan, Nand] because they are recent dramas. Being the producer of these two dramas, I own and like both of the dramas. Poor or rich, everyone is talking about them,” stated Fahad.

    Concluding his remarks, the actor said: “I think this drama does not have any unethical content. If anyone didn’t like it, then they have mental issues.”
