    Bollywood actor Fardeen Khan is coming back to movies after not being in them for 14 years. He’s in a new movie by filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali called ‘Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar.’


    On Saturday, Netflix released a picture showing Fardeen Khan’s first appearance in the upcoming historical drama series, where he will play a character named Wali Mohammed.


    The caption said: “Wali Mohammed faces a tough battle between love and duty. He tries to balance what he wants with his duties as royalty. Fardeen Khan makes an amazing comeback as Wali Mohammed!”
    The show is about the courtesans of Lahore and life in the red-light district in old India. In the picture, Fardeen is dressed in old-fashioned clothes and has a mustache.


    Fardeen’s last movie was ‘Dulha Mil Gaya’. After that, he took a break from acting and stayed away from social media.
    The movie also features Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chaddha, Sanjeeda Sheikh, and Sharmin Segal.

    The summary of the series says: “In Heeramandi, where there’s a fight for power, a young heir has to pick between love and taking over. This shakes things up. The story is set in India before it became independent, during a time when people were fighting for freedom. It’s a test for the tradition of tawaifs (courtesans).”

    ‘Heeramandi’ is said to be a big story about love, power, revenge, and freedom. The filmmaker has been working on it for 14 years because it’s his special project. Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Prerna Singh produced it, with Moin Beg credited for the concept. You can watch ‘Heeramandi’ on Netflix starting from May 1st.

    I’ve signed a paper saying I won’t play Momo’s character anywhere else: Hina Dilpazeer

    During a recent Ramadan show, Pakistani actress Hina Dilpazeer, famous for playing the beloved character of Mumtaz, also known as Momo, in the popular sitcom ‘Bulbulay,’ revealed something surprising. She said she’s not allowed to play the ditzy Momo anywhere else. This includes not just on TV or in movies, but also at events or award shows. It’s part of her contract.

    Momo’s character is an older lady who’s sweet but forgetful. She often forgets names, even of her own family and everyday things around the house. Her mix-ups and funny mistakes are loved by viewers. When she messes up, she says “oof” and puts her hand on her forehead, which has become a famous reaction on the show.

    Talking about her situation, Dilpazeer said, “I have it written down that I can’t play this character (Momo) anywhere else. Yes, I did a commercial where I was asked if I could play Momo, and they said yes, but it was only for the commercial.”


    Apart from Dilpazeer, the main cast of Bulbulay includes Nabeel, Ayesha Omar, and Mehmood Aslam. The show debuted in 2009 and has become one of Pakistan’s most successful TV series. It holds the record for being the longest-running TV show in the country.
    Momo’s character has gained a big fanbase over time, becoming one of Pakistan’s most loved and well-known TV characters. Her funny timing and actions have made her popular with viewers of all ages, making Dilpazeer’s role a key part of Bulbulay’s success.


    Talking about Momo, she praised the writer Ali Rehman for creating such a great character and her funny chemistry with on-screen son Nabeel. Since they had worked together before, it was a lot of fun. “A lot of times, we had to do multiple takes,” reminisced Dilpazeer, “which would often irritate Khoobsurat (Ayesha Omar) because Nabeel, Mehmood, and I would constantly laugh at each other’s gestures and cues.”
