    THE INCIDENT

    On May 23 (Chaand Raat) Malik Riazā€™s daughters ā€“ Amber and Pashmina ā€“ along with Usmanā€™s wife Aamna stormed into Uzmaā€™s house with 12 gunmen where they assaulted and injured Uzma and her sister and threatened to kill them.

    They vandalised the house, broke things and even attempted to sexually assault the girls by telling their armed guards to touch them. Moreso, they filmed everything including the women which is a breach of their privacy. The lawyer added that Riazā€™s daughters took away all the belongings of the two sisters, including their clothes and shoes and said that they will set them on fire.

    Videos of the incident went viral on social media, sparking public outrage. Uzma, in her official statement, named her perpetrators and vowed that she will stand up against their tyranny.

    ā€œI have been shamed, blackmailed, harassed, been threatened to kill in the past three days. I feel I have nothing to lose now and I have decided to fight the strongest people of Pakistan. For me, it is either I get justice or I will be killed but there is no turning back now.ā€

    ā€œI will fight against daughters (Amber Malik & Pashmina Malik) of Malik Riaz, who stormed into my house around midnight with 12 men,ā€ she added.

    She was recently invited as a live caller on Jeeto Pakistan League, where Mahira was the celebrity guest, and while speaking to the host Fahad Mustafa, couldn’t resist roasting her daughter, much to the actor’s surprise.

    When Fahad asked Mahira’s mother what Adnan Siddiqui was doing wrong on the show, she replied, “Yeh mujhe nahi pata magar meri beti nihayat confused insaan hai (I don’t know this, but my daughter is a very confused person).”

    Her comments sent everyone present into a fit of laughter. But she was still not done roasting Mahira.

    She continued, “Yeh jhoot bol rahe hai. Yeh nihayat jhooti insaan hai. She’s just going to confuse you.”

    In response, Adnan said, “Thank you Aunty. You made my day.”

    Later, when Fahad asked Mahira’s mother what the other celebrity contestant Waseem Badami was doing wrong, she was all praises for him and said she was very fond of him.

  • Mahira Khanā€™s gesture for her son is the sweetest thing youā€™ll see today

    Mahira Khan’s Twitter profile was recently taken over by her son, Azlan, who is a big fan of PokĆ©mon. He has created a PokĆ©mon animation with his friend and wanted to contact Junichi Masuda who is the game director and composer of PokĆ©mon games to include it in his game.

    Mahira let him use her Twitter so that he could contact the game director himself.

    While many people supported the thread and tagged Junichi Masuda, one Twitter user passed a snide remark.

    However Mahira, who is usually cool and composed, was having none of it and hit back at the Twitter user for their comments.

  • Mahira Khan opens up about her love life

    Mahira Khan, who has always been tight-lipped about her love life – even when social media married her off several times – has shared a sneak peek into her love life.

    Speaking to Samina Peerzada on her show Rewind at Home with Samina Peerzada, when Peerzada asked Mahira if she is in love with someone special, Mahira replied: “I think I am in love.”

    When Peerzada expressed her joy on this, Mahira said, “I don’t know. I’m so shy about this.”

    Mahira also shared that her love interest is not from the industry and that she doesn’t want to share any details about it.

    “This is the one thing I want to protect with my life,” said the actor, adding “I want to protect my child. Initially, I was always finding opportunities to show off my son but now I want to keep things private.”

    Mahira explained that the reason for doing this was because she doesn’t want any nazr.

    However, Mahira clarified that she is not getting married. Though she did say that her grandmother has asked her to think about it.

    This the first time Mahira has publicly spoken about having a special someone in her life. Last year, India media had reported that Mahira had gotten engaged in Turkey to a Karachi-based entrepreneur Salim Karim. However, sources close to Mahira had shut down the rumours, saying that she had gone there to attend her friend’s wedding.

    Apart from this, Mahira also talked about how she is spending her time at home. She shared that she was spending time with her family, watching the sun rise with her son and catching up on reading. Mahira also remarked that she missed being on set and that she is looking forward to going back to work.

    Who are Sheheryar Munawar’s ‘most special people’?

    With everything and everyone in lockdown and quarantine, we often find ourselves scrolling through our phone galleries and reminiscing about the happy moments we spent with our loved ones.

    Sheheryar Munawar, who in his previous post made it clear that he was done with the coronavirus, in his latest post shared pictures of himself with his most special people. Among those people is director Asim Raza, Mahira Khan, Adeel Hussain, his Parey Hut Love co-stars Maya Ali, Zara Noor Abbas, Ahmed Ali Butt and Shahbaz Shigri and makeup artist Adnan Ansari.

    “In these times of the lockdown, emotional highs and lows have become part of everyday life. Whenever Iā€™m feeling a little low, going through old pictures always puts a smile on my face,” wrote the actor.

    “Iā€™ve always heard people say ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’, but since Iā€™ve been missing human interaction like the deserts miss the rain (yes, being a little dramatic for effect here) Iā€™ve discovered that ‘A picture is worth a thousand a thousand emotions a thousand memories’,” he wrote further before adding, “Sharing a few pictures of some special people. Some of whom where friends before they become colleagues and some colleagues who became friends…but all of them are now friends who are like family.”

    Actor Iman Aly has clarified her remarks about head is not blowing over any time soon.

    Iman in her interview had stated that the models currently working in the industry donā€™t have ā€˜adequate general knowledgeā€™.

    Similarly, Frieha Altaf also took to social media to criticise Iman for her comments on Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan and remarked that the model was resorting to “a cheap publicity stunt as she has a movie coming up.”

    Iman, in the interview, had claimed that Shah Rukh Khanā€™s Raees had first been offered to her. She further said: ā€œ90% of the movies made in Pakistan today are still offered to me first. But I only take the scripts I fall in love with. If I donā€™t like the lines, it feels like work, like slavery.ā€

    In another segment, Iman had remarked Humayun Saeed would be a ā€œdoodh dahi bechnay walaā€ (dairy product salesman) if he was not an actor. She also labelled Fawad Khan as a ā€œfailed standup comedianā€ and Mehwish Hayat a ā€œcosmetologistā€™s assistant.ā€ She also said that Mahira should have stayed a VJ.
