    “Meri Pyari Muni,

    From our first meeting a decade ago when you asked me who i was and what business i had being there ( you have a knack for setting the tone in the first meeting ) to dancing all night and pouring our hearts out to each other, knowing we both have “halka paits” … “but mahira this one you can’t tell anyone” – “sherry i’ll kill you if you tell anyone – and i mean ANYONE” , From having different methods and annoying each other on sets to being each others confidants and support system on the toughest ones. From Competing to be @asimrazatvf favourite child to standing up for each other when it comes to everyone else – it’s been a beautiful journey, one i wouldn’t want to be on with anyone else. As you embark on a new journey, here’s celebrating you and wishing you all the love and magic the universe has to offer !
    Even though i’ve shared the wedding stage with you on film so many times and was making fun of people for crying at the mehndi – seeing you walk down that aisle had me bawling
    you and saleem both looked beautiful and you both lucked out ❤

    Shadi Mubarik Pyari Muni “

    Now in a recent Q &A session with her followers on Instagram, Aliza has opened up about whether Feroze Khan plays a role in providing financial support for the upbringing of his children.

    He does, Aliza said. “No that’s not true. He has taken on their financial responsibility.”

    Another user asked Aliza about whether she thought the height of a man mattered in a marriage, to which her response was: “Height of his patience and personality bas.”

    Aliza Sultan had previously shut down rumors claimed by Feroze that he wasn’t allowed to visit the children when a user chided her for not letting the father visit them during Eid.

    “No one has stopped anyone from visiting. You should relax and enjoy your Eid,” she wrote in response.

  • ‘We didn’t want a haram relationship’: Hira Khan on why she, Arslan Khan married early

    ‘We didn’t want a haram relationship’: Hira Khan on why she, Arslan Khan married early

    Celebrity couple Hira Khan and Arsalan Khan were guests on a recent episode of Express Entertainment’s ‘The Talk Talk Show’ with Hassan Choudary. During the conversation, Hira Khan opened up about the couple’s decision to get married early, even though the two had just began their careers, and didn’t wait to settle down before tying the knot.

    “If you’re planning to do something as blissful as Nikkah, then there is no way it will prevent rizq from coming in your way. It’s not true that you will face hurdles in your work life,” Hira said.

    “A lot of people told us ‘brands won’t pick you.’ ‘Your image would change because you would be a married couple, you would be out of that millennial category’”, recalled the ‘Guru’ actress. “But that never bothered us. We were doing this with the intention that we don’t want a haram relationship, even engagement for a long time. We just want to be religiously right, nothing bad will happen if your intentions are pure.”

    Actor Arsalan Khan said it’s better that couples settle down early rather than later in life “If you’re going to get married later in life, then isn’t it better that you do it now? If you’re thinking no, I’ll do it later in life, that means your intentions are not right. Because you’re thinking if you find someone new you’ll ditch the woman and marry them.”

    “I only wanted to create a stable life,” the ‘College Gate’ actor said. “I wanted to focus on my career, and I need to have someone back home whom I could talk with without worrying about whether this relationship is good, is it breaking?”

    “We think we married quite late,” joked Hira. “We should have married even earlier.”

  • Sridevi’s husband blames a habit for her untimely death

    Sridevi’s husband blames a habit for her untimely death

    The late celebrated icon Sri Devi left a hole in the Bollywood industry when she passed away in 2018, leaving behind an impressive film legacy. On the announcement of her death, many Bollywood actors, including Pakistani celebrities like Sajal Aly, mourned the loss of a giant. Five years later, her husband, producer Boney Kapoor, has opened up about her sudden death in an interview with ‘The New Indian’.

    The producer said it was Sri Devi’s constant habit of crash diets had caused her health problems to prolong, saying that the family physician had often scolded the late actress. “She often used to starve; she wanted to look good,” Kapoor stated.

    “She wanted to look good because when you are on screen, you look much broader and she wanted to make sure that she is chiselled and in good shape to maintain good looks on screen. It was not just for the film that she was doing then. She had come down to 46-47 kgs. You will notice it in the film ‘English Vinglish’.”

    Boney further elaborated that doctors consistently scolded the late actress after she had a number of blackouts because of her refusal to add salt to her diet.

    Salt can retain water and cutting it out from diet can make people look thinner.

    The producer said he urged his late wife to not follow a harsh diet because of her low BP.

    “Most women believe salt increases water retention, that’s why you feel puffy. That was one reason. I would also tell her not to completely avoid salt. I would also ask her to include a pinch of salt when having salad.”

    Boney recalled that South Indian star Nagarjuna came to visit him to offer condolences for Sri Devi’s demise, and revealed the actress’s crash diet took her to a point that she “fell in the bathroom and broke her teeth, and had those artificial caps.”

    Boney said he urged the actress to stop following such a strict diet plan, however, “unfortunately, she didn’t take this seriously and we also thought it can’t be this serious till the incident happened.”

    Sri Devi passed away in Dubai while she was getting ready to go on a dinner date with her husband. She suffered a cardiac arrest while in the bath tub and could not be revived. According to a news source, Boney had found her motionless in the hotel bathroom, in a bathtub full of water. When she didn’t wake up, he called the police at 9 pm.

    Speaking on the brutal interogation by the Dubai police, Boney Kapoor opened up about the disturbing allegations claiming he had killed her, and why he chose not to speak about the factors behind her death.

    “First of all, it was not a natural death, it was an accidental death. I decided not to speak about it because I had already spoken about it for over 24 to 48 hours when I was being interrogated and investigated. Dubai Police told me that we had to be through because there was pressure from Indian media. I said, well, I have nothing more to say than what I already have been saying.

    They also discovered that there was no foul play and I went through all the intense interrogation there where they put me through a lie detector and all those things. The post-mortem report said that it was an accidental death by drowning.”

  • Mahira Khan walks down the aisle with her son and he is so grown up

    Mahira Khan walks down the aisle with her son and he is so grown up

    Mahira Khan’s wedding has been the talk of the town since Monday, when two short snippets from the event were shared online by the actor’s manager Anoushay Talha and her brother Hissan Khan. The actress later shared a longer video and photos of her marriage to long-term partner Salim Karim.

    However, what is making Twitter users more emotional than the bride and groom is Mahira’s grown up son Azlan, shedding tears of happiness as he accompanied her down the aisle.

    For many users, seeing a woman getting married again and that too accompanied by her son, whom she raised as a single mother, was a heartening thing to witness.

    “ok but mahira and her son holding hands on her wedding day is making me feel a lot of good emotions. this is everything,” one user wrote.

    Users shared clips from Mahira’s wedding where Azlan could be seen sitting next to the actress during the Nikkah, and no we’re not crying either, it’s the onions.

    Some users shared a comparison picture of Mahira holding Azlan when he was a child, to the moment when he walked her down the aisle along with her brother. “Mahira’s son being all grown up, and walking her mom down the aisle, has to be one of the beautiful thing I saw today, such a precious moment omg”

    Many users pointed out how this moment was poignant to witness because a divorced woman, something our society deeply loathes, established a successful career and raised her son, and then got married to the person she loves with her son walking her down the aisle? We want more women in Pakistan to get such a similar happy ending.

    During an appearance at the ‘Fwhy podcast with Frieha Altaf’ Mahira shared how she married her childhood sweetheart Ali Askari, sharing how the two continued to remain close friends in order to raise their son Azlan, her main priority. She revealed the two had evolved into a modern family where respect for each other’s partners prevails.
