Syra Yousuf has responded and hit back at those who posted negative comments about her skin after her sister Palwasha Yousuf, a stylist, posted an unfiltered picture of the actor on social media. While many, especially women, lauded Syra for embracing her skin and putting down unrealistic beauty standards, others mocked her skin for being textured and not smooth.
Responding to the backlash on social media over her skin, Syra posted a natural selfie of herself, writing: “I really like my skin.” She also used the hashtag “No Filter” to further get her point across.
In a similar incident, Dubai-based beauty influencer Huda Kattan also opened up and discussed how edits make a person appear perfect, setting unrealistic beauty standards for the rest.
Meanwhile, earlier in 2019, Hania Aamir in a social media post had opened up about her struggle with acne and talked about unrealistic beauty standards.
After weeks of ‘pawri-ing it up’, it seems that Pakistan, including our favourite divas Mahira Khan and Aiman Khan, are done with the trend.
Mahira expressed her feelings on the trend with a hilarious meme featuring Batman and Robin. In the meme, Batman can be seen slapping Robin who tries to recreate ‘Pawri Ho Rai Hai,’ asking him to shut up.
However, fans were quick to criticise Mahira, saying she was among the first to recreate the Pawri video.
While one social media user wrote: “Yeh pehly khudi dance kar rahi thi, ab chup karwa re. Ajeeb,” another thanked Mahira for asking for a stop on the trend, saying: “Thank you for being brave enough to speak about the things no one talks about!!”.

With spring in full bloom in Lahore, Rehmat Ajmal kicked off her wedding celebrations with a yellow-themed mayun, pictures of which have gone viral on social media.
Rehmat looked radiant in a simple yellow outfit by Faiza Saqlain. The model-turned-actor paired her peshwas with a bright silk chunri dupatta.
Ajmal got engagedin October last year in an intimate ceremony.
A graduate of the National College of Arts (NCA), Ajmal made her way into modelling after being approached by a teacher during her second year. From there, she began getting featured in ad campaigns for different brands before bagging a role in Meray Paas Tum Ho. However, Rehmat later revealed that she is “not proud to be part of something [ Meray Pass Tum Ho] that is so compromising and ill-informed.”
Atif Aslam is creating waves with his latest single Raat.
The music video of the songwalks the viewer through the journey of a striving artist – making it big and subsequently losing everything else in the process. It features Syra Yousuf, Kiran Malik Mansha Pasha, Gohar Rasheed and Khalid Malik.
As the song commences, we see Khalid introducing Atif as Asif as he doesn’t know his name in the first ‘dimension’. In this phase, Atif is a struggling artist, hoping to make it big in the entertainment industry. The scene then shifts towards the next dimension where we are introduced to an Atif who has made it big. Looking dapper in a well-fitted suit, the singer can be seen working in a romantic scene with the gorgeous Syra. The two break eye-contact as the director asks them for a re-take and right on cue, the two throw a starry tantrum.
In the next dimension, we see the Aadat singer in an argument with a woman, presumably his wife, played by Mansha. The two are embroiled in an argument as a child sits in the back. The rift causes Atif to lose control of the car, resulting in an accident.
In the final dimension, we see Atif who could be seen defeated and broken. Just as he walks towards an unknown location in an alley, he is caught up in a mugging attempt and we see Gohar as the notorious robber. In a failed attempt to rob the man, the two wrestle, which results in Atif being shot. In the last dimension, we see an Atif who was left to die – alone and in dark.
The song, directed by Yasir Jaswal, is beautifully shot. Raat encapsulates the essence of how anything and everything is possible in the darkness of the night.
“The night is as beautiful as it is mysterious,” reads the tagline of the song and the video appears to do justice to it. The music of the song has been composed by Atif while the lyrics have been penned by Aslam and Munir Niazi.
Meanwhile, fans are thoroughly enjoying Aslam’s new song.
