    Security forces killed 29 terrorists over last month: ISPR

    Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement on Wednesday that security forces have killed almost 29 terrorists over the last month along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border area.

    The intelligence-based operations were carried out in response to a “surge in terrorist incidents orchestrated from Afghan soil, wherein terrorists from Afghanistan attempt to infiltrate through Pakistan-Afghanistan Border and target security forces as well as the innocent civilians.”

    The military’s media wing also stated that security forces conducted operations in Balochistan’s Zhob district and other border areas.

  • Sonya Hussyn and Sami Khan shine in ‘Aik Chubhan Si’

    Sonya Hussyn and Sami Khan shine in ‘Aik Chubhan Si’

    It’s too early to know where ‘Aik Chubhan Si’ will go, but with Sonya Hussyn and Sami Khan on screen, there’s more to the story than meets the eye. Here’s why we’re giving this one a go.


    The story is different from the usual stuff on screen. There’s no love story with our hero and heroine falling in love at first sight. This Pakistani drama is about post-marital (non-marital) bliss. Naila and Haroon are happily married, but we see a husband who’s not too happy to serve Naila’s family. However, the story’s subtle and relatable details keep us watching.


    Naila insists on looking after her uncle because he raised her. Haroon agrees, but reluctantly, with no toxicity (yet) in his attitude. There’s curiosity about Maheen, played by Hira Khan, as her character seems to have more to reveal, especially in the final scene of the first episode. Is there a hint of mystery, thrill, or something else in the drama? The first episode sets the stage and keeps us intrigued to learn more.


    As the drama unfolds quickly, we hope the story won’t fall into the trap of overly stretched plots and typical ‘other woman’ conspiracies.
    Sonya Hussyn and Sami Khan share great on-screen chemistry. If you’re a fan of this couple, then Aik Chubhan Si is a drama you should try. They appear comfortable on screen and make their characters believable and true to life. Their effortless interactions make the drama more enjoyable to watch.


    Fahad Sheikh plays Moiz, Hira’s cousin, and his performance here is a step up from his past roles. Whether it’s the direction or Fahad’s acting, his character evokes sympathy, even in the first episode. We’re looking forward to more from him. Hira Khan’s character seems a bit toxic, but we hope she will prove to be more complex and interesting.


    ‘Aik Chubhan Si’ is written by Rukhsana Nigar and directed by Mohsin Talat. The cast features Sonya Hussyn, Sami Khan, Asma Abbas, Hira Khan, Fahad Sheikh, and others.

  • Court rejects plea seeking Khan’s disqualification in Tyrian White case

    Court rejects plea seeking Khan’s disqualification in Tyrian White case

    The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has dismissed a plea seeking Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s disqualification in the Tyrian White case.

    A new IHC bench heard the petition filed against Imran Khan for not revealing his alleged daughter in the nomination papers for contesting the 2018 general elections.

    Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri, Justice Arbab Mohammad Tahir, and Justice Saman Rafat Imtiaz heard the case today.

    The Tyrian White case was pending since May 2023, when IHC chief justice Aamer Farooq dissolved the three-member bench hearing the petition.

    Earlier, IHC CJ Aamer Farooq, Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani, and Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir were hearing the case and had reserved the verdict on March 30 last year.

    However, Justice Kayani and Justice Tahir wrote an opinion rejecting the petition’s validity and posted it on the IHC’s website, but it was later taken down.

    On the other hand, during today’s hearing, the court said that the petition against Imran Khan’s disqualification had already been rejected by the bench.

    “The majority decision has already been issued,” remarked the court.

    Mahira categorically stated that her husband isn’t a business tycoon nor is he 66-years-old. “He is not a tycoon, 66-year-old tycoon! Bechara, my Bechara. Not even close to being a tycoon or 66, but Insha Allah one day, who knows?”

  • Jaan Nisar: more intriguing than it first appears

    Jaan Nisar: more intriguing than it first appears

    ‘Jaan Nisar,’ a project by 7th Sky Entertainment, is led by the talented duo Abdullah Kadwani and Asad Qureshi. This new drama airs on Geo Entertainment and has kicked off with three episodes, hinting at a storyline that’s deeper than it first appears.


    Dua, played by the versatile Hiba Bukhari, is a young girl with big dreams. Unlike the typical obedient and practical sisters, Dua loves dancing and dreams of exotic meals instead of the usual desi dishes. She hopes for someone who can help her achieve her dreams, though she’s not just a “fortune seeker.”


    Enter Nosherwan, a dark, mysterious, and no-nonsense guy, portrayed by Danish Taimoor. He seems like the perfect drama hero, but there may be more to his character than meets the eye.


    On the other side, Dua shares a seemingly love-struck story with Faraz, played by Haroon Shahid. Nosherwan notices Dua on two occasions and seems intrigued, though he hasn’t admitted it to himself yet.


    But there’s a twist: Nosherwan was forced to marry his brother’s widow, Kashmala, a role he’s uncomfortable with as he always saw her as a sister-in-law. The past haunts him and drives him to do good deeds, like protecting women in his village.
    The drama also teases a mystery about Nosherwan’s brother’s death and Dua’s strict father, who has a dubious character.


    ‘Jaan Nisar’ airs on Geo Entertainment every Friday to Sunday at 8:00 p.m. The cast includes Danish Taimoor, Hiba Bukhari, Haroon Shahid, Sajid Hasan, Hina Bayat, Mahmood Aslam, Dania Enwer, Kinza Malik, Hiba Ali, Sajeeruddin Khalifa, Humaira Bano, and Ellie Zaid.

    The chance meeting at the airport seems to have been purely coincidental, with Krasa returning from a trip out west. They were seen side by side, with Mahira wearing a khaki shirt and trousers.

  • ‘I know that I am a fantastic guy’; Aagha Ali breaks silence on ‘red flag’ label

    ‘I know that I am a fantastic guy’; Aagha Ali breaks silence on ‘red flag’ label

    Actor-singer Aagha Ali called himself a ‘fantastic guy’ while talking about how people see him and the label ‘ red flag’.


    In a new interview, Aagha talked about the wrong idea people have of him as a ‘red flag’ in relationships and how it has affected him over the years.
    “I was affected by what people said after COVID. I couldn’t eat for three days,” Ali recalled. “There were a lot of controversies about me, and publications wrote all sorts of things, which impacted me. I would think that these people don’t know anything, and I can’t show my entire life to them because there is another person involved whom I can’t and didn’t want to harm.”


    The actor from ‘Mere Bewafa’ continued, “There was this stuff on the internet where people began to say I’m a red flag. I guess they meant I’m not good at relationships. That made me feel”

    “Because I know I’m a fantastic guy, and I’m saying this because Allah knows who I am,” he said. “I love my fans so I won’t explain much. But I started from nothing, with no support or connections in the industry. I’m also unlucky in that way because I couldn’t be friends with people or get close to them—for various reasons—but still, I survived for 10 years and acted as the main character in over 90 TV series, which is a lot,” Ali concluded.
