Earlier this year the Khel Khel Mein star tweeted that in our society, parents need to learn how to treat their children right as well. These sensitive relations require effort from both sides.

The Aangan star highlighted the fact that children are not playthings that can be molded according to their parents’ liking they’re individuals who deserve the same respect and disciplined response that is expected of them. It is a two-sided relationship that requires effort on both sides but the greater side needs to be the parents, to bring another human being into the world is automatically shouldering the duty to raise them and do right by them.
This includes learning to give them the space and attention that they require to grow healthily.

Star-actor Neelam Muneer in an exclusive conversation with The Current, revealed why she rejected to play Shakra in Zahid Ahmed starrer Ishq Zah e Naseeb. The role later fell in stellar performer Yumna Zaidi’s lap.
“It was a very good project, the director (Farooq Rind) is amazing, it aired on HUM TV and was a proper package.”
She then spilled that the reason of turning it down was because there was a problem with her dates. She wasn’t available to shoot the project in the given time span. “There was a clash of dates and I felt I won’t be able to manage.”
Muneer concluded on this topic by saying, “Yumna did a very fine job in the drama, I did watch the show though.”
Last year, Yumna mentioned that her role in Ishq Zahe Naseeb was initially offered to Ayeza Khan and Neelam Munir who turned down the role as its screen time was less than the other female part played by Sonya Hussyn.
In the fun interview, Neelam also opened up about her traveling preferences with A-list actors Ahad Raza Mir, Bilal Abbas Khan and Sheheryar Munawar.
On being asked with which hero would she want to travel on a private jet, an auto-rickshaw or a car. The Wrong Number actress was given an option of these three actors.
She said, “Bilal ke saath auto pe, Ahad Raza Mir ke saath private jet pe chali jaungi and Sheheryar ke saath car pe.”
Seems like Neelam is fond of the Hum Tum star the most.

Dr Aamir Liaquat Hussain was found dead on Thursday at his house in Karachi. Liaquat was a religious scholar, politician and TV show host.
The cause of his death is still unknown. His daughter has requested that post-mortem should not be carried out while the police have asked for an autopsy.
Some people on social media are expressing their grief over his death while some others think that his death should not mean they start hiding his reality.
Have a look at how people are reacting to his death:
2018 میں عامر لیاقت نے پی ٹی ایم کے لاہور جلسے کے بعد میری بیوی کی تصاویر لگا کر انہیں سی آئی ایجنٹ قرار دیا جس کی وجہ سے میری نوکری بھی گئی اور کچھ عرصے کے لئے ملک چھوڑنا پڑا۔ لیکن ہماری دعا ہے اللہ ان کی مغفرت فرمائے اور آگے کی منزلیں آسان فرمائے۔ بے شک معاف کرنا بہترین عمل ہے
Some think we shouldn’t speak ill of the dead. But some negatives legacies should never be forgetten. #AmirLiaquat was Pakistan’s most prolific & influential televangelist. People who build their persona & influence off religion must be held by a higher moral and ethical code.
Aamir Liaquat is dead. Here’s hoping the era of hate, bigotry, moral policing, hypocrisy & misogyny dies with him. We can and we should speak the truth about the dead (and those living)
Let's all agree that this is victim blaming, and Aamir Liaquat's victims had nothing to do with his death. He was no hero; his death doesn't absolve him of the harm and abuse he caused.
Agree or not, Pakistani men will always find a way to blame women for everything. https://t.co/qllfRo1XB9
I’m not going to say Aamir Liaquat’s death isn’t disturbing – but I will say – please do not make him a hero, and please do not start pinning the blame on someone else for his death. He was a grown man, fully aware of, and responsible for his own actions.
