  • Punjabi boys just want to have fun: Wild Wild Punjab review

    Punjabi boys just want to have fun: Wild Wild Punjab review

    I recently watched ‘Wild Wild Punjab’ on Netflix and thoroughly enjoyed it. The film is  the story of a group of friends who embark on a riotous journey to crash their buddy’s ex-girlfriend’s wedding. Determined to seek closure and declare, “I am over you,” they set off on a mission to Pathankot, fueled by heartbreak and a few drinks.The cast, including Varun Sharma, Sunny Singh, Jassie Gill, and Manjot Singh, deliver impressive performances in this comedy. The film’s writers and directors, Luv Ranjan and Simarpreet Singh, deserve credit for giving new faces a chance to shine in roles that fit their characters perfectly.

    The story is engaging, with the friends navigating their conflicting desires and misadventures, all while maintaining a light-hearted, comedic tone. The music in the film is exciting and enhances the film’s lively atmosphere. The film features upbeat tracks like ‘Meri Baggi Mera Ghoda’ and ‘Husn Irani,’ which add to the energetic vibe.The film’s message about the importance of friendship and adventure is valuable.

    While the friends’ journey is entertaining, it also highlights the significance of embracing life’s chaos and unpredictability.

    This could be a one-time watch film recommendation. ‘Wild Wild Punjab’ is a fun, colorful, and heartwarming film that you can enjoy with family but I will not recommend you to watch with family because of the slang language used in the film.

    One drawback of the film, in my opinion, after the interval was becoming drag there were some extra scenes.The film can be a little short instead of dragging it.

  • Ihsanullah’s father appeals to PCB to save his son’s career

    Ihsanullah’s father appeals to PCB to save his son’s career

    Fast bowler Ihsanullah’s father, Abdul Naseer, has appealed to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to rehabilitate his son at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) Lahore to save his career from an untimely end.

    He has been suffering from an elbow injury for more than a year, during which he underwent a surgery and a check-up in England, after which a PCB committee raised questions about the treatment and then suggested a long rehab.

    Chairman PCB Mohsin Naqvi took action on this matter, ordered his complete care, and decided to rehabilitate him in his hometown of Swat.

    Talking to the media in Lahore, Ihsanullah’s father, Abdul Naseer, said, “My son is not being well cared for in Swat. He should be rehabilitated in NCA because there are no facilities in Swat, and the best doctors are not available. To save my son’s career, call him to NCA so his treatment can be completed and he can play. We are grateful to Mohsin Naqvi, but my son’s career is at stake due to the lack of facilities in Swat.”

    Ihsan is currently Pakistan’s fastest bowler. He was injured during the white-ball home series against New Zealand last April.

    He further stated that the former president of the Supreme Court Bar Association told him about a similar incident that happened to him. According to Mir, General Bajwa contacted the former president of SCBA through a religious scholar and apologised to him personally.

    Hamir Mir stated, “This means that he [Bajwa] knew what Faiz was doing.”

  • Zhalay Sarhadi questions Khalil ur Rehman’s honey-trap claims

    Zhalay Sarhadi questions Khalil ur Rehman’s honey-trap claims

    Popular actress Zhalay Sarhadi has questioned why the sex tape videos of controversial writer Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar, allegedly made at gunpoint, were not clearer.


    Zhalay recently appeared on 365 Digital’s podcast where she discussed Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar’s videos and his abduction case, among other issues.


    She said, “Just as he is saying that these videos were made at gunpoint, similarly, the girl, Amina Urooj, is also claiming that she was forced.”


    She also raised the question that, according to the claims of both the writer and the girl, “They were taken hostage at gunpoint, but why are the guns not visible?”

    She also asked, “Why were those videos made with hidden cameras instead of having the cameras in plain sight? When someone is kidnapped for ransom, a clear video is typically made, showing a demand for money under threat.”


    According to Sarhadi, “Just as there are videos of people kidnapped for ransom, there would have been a similar video of Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar.”
    Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar was allegedly subjected to torture after being abducted in a honey trap in July last month, and his sex tape videos were later leaked.


    Regarding the videos Qamar claimed that “They were made at gunpoint and that he was also forced to engage in sexual activity with the girl.”


    After the sex tape videos were leaked, police took action and arrested not only the main accused, Amina Urooj, but also other individuals who are currently on remand with Lahore Police. Their case is under hearing.
