Wrestling Legend Pat Patterson Dies At Age 79

By

Dec 3, 2020

Another legendary celebrity has departed from the world today, and it’s none other than the legendary Pat Patterson of the wrestling industry.

Pat Patterson Dies At 79

Veteran wrestler Pat Patterson has died at the age of 79. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has confirmed his demise in a statement on Wednesday.

Patterson’s Career

Patterson hailed from Montreal, and his birth name was Pierre Clermont. He had been battling cancer for a couple of months now, and yesterday, he lost his fight to the vicious disease.

Patterson’s wrestling career spanned from 1958 to 1984, and it was one for the ages. He made his debut in Quebec, and then he moved to the U.S. in the early 1960s. In 1979, he became WWE’s very first Intercontinental champion. As many say, his career was full of “firsts.”

Later Life

He announced his in-ring retirement in 1984. Thereafter, he started working as a color analyst and performed various roles behind the scenes with the head of the company, Vince McMahon. He had been a long time supporter and promoter of McMahon!

In 2016, Patterson published his autobiography, Accepted: How the First Gay Superstar Changed WWE, telling how extraordinary his career was. Patterson announced his sexual orientation to the public in 2014.

This moment of bravery came ultimately, not to many people’s shock. However, given that he started his career in the ‘60s and announced over 50 years later requires an incredible amount of courage.

His Creativity Was Unbounded

Patterson was known as “Le Rêve du Québec” for his exploits in the ring, and he used that to his advantage. He also became known for thinking of creative ways of ending wrestling matches and came up with Royal Rumble! Rumble is an elimination match that traditionally features 30 wrestlers and has become one of WWE’s most popular events.

Patterson was also inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 1996. WWE’s statement paid an emotional tribute to Patterson, “From the Intercontinental Title to the Royal Rumble Match and beyond, his name will forever be revered in WWE lore.”

Stars Pay Tribute

The Rock sent out a heart-warming tribute to Patterson like many others today. Pat Patterson’s last impression on everyone has left many saddened, and The Rock acknowledged his influence. Patterson was the one who convinced McMahon to sign a young Dwayne Johnson too!

So sad to hear of the passing of @wwe legend Pat Patterson. One of the greatest minds in the business and just an all around great guy. I will miss him and his karaoke! RIP my friend. You are a hero to many! pic.twitter.com/WXFwJ1fjkO

Pakistan To Provide Free Vaccine To Its Citizens?

By

-

Dec 3, 2020

Under the supervision of Dr. Faisal Sultan, the Special Assistant to Prime Minister, experts prepared recommendations for acquiring the COVID vaccine. It was submitted to the Federal Cabinet, where the government discussed how affordable the vaccine should be. The idea was that everyone should have access to the vaccine without discrimination. But on Wednesday, Dr. Nausheen Hamid announced that the cabinet had allocated the initial funds for the vaccine purchase, which will not be just affordable. Instead, it will be free.

Procuring the covid vaccine

Dr. Nausheen Hamid, Parliamentary Secretary National Health Services Regulations and Coordination (NHSRC), was in talks with a local news channel. She told them that the government has been working towards acquiring funding for the vaccine. According to her, it will be made available by the second quarter of 2021, which is a little different from the rumors. Initially, it was supposed to be the first quarter.

She also mentioned that a China-made vaccine for the pandemic is undergoing trials in Pakistan. The trial is already in its third phase. This whole process happening in Pakistan is a very privileged scenario for the country because very few states participate in a landmark achievement for the entire world. She assures that the moment it is proved that the vaccine works, it will be made available.

Dr. Nausheen Hamid elaborating on the government’s effort

In her talks, she mentioned that the government is in discussions with the companies working on vaccine development, and they will be making an informed decision. The factors they will e considering include but are not limited to are safety, side effects, storage, cost, production capacity, and of course, its efficacy.

Parliament Secretary NHRSC said, “The whole world is booking vaccines; we are also in touch with everyone.”

According to her, the vaccine will be available at cheap rates on the COVAX platform for 186 counties, and Pakistan also plans to do the buying from there. She continued to mention that a budget of $100 million has been approved for the vaccine. This, again, is a bit different from earlier news that said a budget of $150 million had been allocated.

She ended the talks by discussing how the continued rallies are a risky move, especially since the country is amid the second, more lethal wave of coronavirus. She urged the media to counsel people mentioning how the government cannot fight this war alone. The most they can do is increase the space in hospitals and gather funding for the vaccine. The people have to give in their input as well.

It is time to ‘act responsibly,’ she said.

5 Mind Blowing Pakistani Rappers That Will Blow You Away — Image Source: Twitter

Hip Hop originated in the 70s in Bronx, New York City. The movement at that time was confined to “Emceeing” or MC-ing, which was similar to spoken word but quickly became a medium of expression by the marginalized communities that were mostly African Americans at that time.

Pakistani Rappers Who Are Taking The Desi Hip Hop Scene To The Next Level

The movement slowly and gradually caught momentum and eventually ended up getting a global audience. Today, Hip Hop is a multi-billion dollar industry with many brands, corporations endorsing and borrowing elements of Hip Hop into their work. Almost every country, culture, and ethnicity have their sub-genre of Hip Hop that was once limited to the African American community.

Pakistan too has a prominent Hip Hop scene that was completely non-existent a few years ago. But with the global emergence of the culture, we have seen numerous artists coming up and making a name for themselves.

5 Mind-Blowing Pakistani Rappers That Will Blow Your Mind — Image Source: Young Stunners Official Twitter

1. Young Stunners

The Karachi based duo is known for their clever wordplay and pop culture references. The two rappers; Talha Anjum and Talha Younus, both, rap in Urdu became famous when their single titled “Burger e Karachi” released over 7 years ago. They split last year which took the fans into a frenzy speculating rumors about a possible feud amongst the duo. They reconciled again and are back on the scene with multiple tracks including the superhit collaboration with Asim Azhar and Shamoom Ismail, “Tum Tum” and “Karachi Chal”.

2. Bohemia

Roger David, famously known by his stage name, Bohemia is a Karachi-born rapper who later moved to The United States. It is impossible to discuss the South Asian Hip Hop landscape and not discuss Bohemia. He has many admirers, not only in Pakistan but in entire South Asia, and is the face of Conscious Punjabi rap.

3. Faris Shafi

Approximately 8 years ago, Faris Shafi released his single called “Awaam” with Mooroo who was not very well-known at that time.

The single received massive praise and appreciation from the audience for its commentary on the political and social landscape of Pakistan. Faris was absent for quite some time until he recently released his new single titled, “Nazar”.

4. Billy-X

Babar Khan known as Billy-X gained popularity after the release of his hit single titled “Juttini”. On Last.FM, Babar claims he had never heard of Hip Hop or rapping until he started to get into Eminem’s music. He was heavily inspired by Eminem and his flow and content of music are evident of that.

5. Ali Gul Pir

Known for his social commentary and antics. Ali Gul Pir gained popularity after his humorous rap song titled, “Waderay Ka Beta” which took a jab at the feudal system in Pakistan while imitating a spoiled child of a feudalist.

Ali Gul Pir expanded onto his talent and has hosted numerous events, made funny videos along with photoshoots that have always received immense appreciation from his audience.

Moon Racing between two cars — Image Source: arstechnica.com

Even as we speak about automobiles, one cannot help but mention racing. ‘Rush’ is one of the most famous formula one racing films of all time. If you wish to look at more historical rivalries, ‘Ford V Ferrari’ is worth a watch. If we steer towards street racing, the fast and furious had a couple of good first installments.

However, they have announced that they will be going to the moon in the 9th Sequel! Talk about an over-the-top racing experience. Speaking of the moon itself, there is a bit of news that might capture your imagination. Yes, that is right! Cars are being developed for the first-ever race on the moon. Is that not newsworthy of a read? Let us dive into the details.

Moon Mission with racing two cars — Image Source: robbreport.com

A Lunar Plan

So, what exactly is so great about the moon? It was once a dream to even think about going near it. It came in the 1960s, and humans made their first landing. Since then, the moon has been the subject of countless adventures and voyages. It did not even hold a particular scientific purpose sometimes. Did you know that there once a plan to blow up the moon? When the USSR and USA were locking horns, they wanted to show who was the giant boss.

Now, the current lunar plan involves a company by the name of Moon Mark. They intend to hold a series of competitions for high school students. These will determine who gets to take a chance of a lifetime. Yes, it is that big of a deal, especially for fans of vehicles and space combined.

The Competition

The competition will feature a series of challenges. This can be e-gaming, drone racing as well as space-related entrepreneurial work. Whichever two teams come out on top will get to race their cars on the moon. Yes, this will be the first-ever race on the moon, using remote controls. They will have to optimize their vehicle in accordance to drive appropriately in lower gravity.

Additionally, the designers of some of the most famous formula one circuits are currently at work. They have not officially revealed the lunar track but it’s definitely in the works. The exact cost of getting the cars launched and landed on the phone is not known. However, estimates put it at $10 Million!

Start Your Engines

The two racers will deploy on the moon via the Nova-C lander by Houston based intuitive machines. The company, Moon Mark, is in coalition with quite a lot of private space companies. This includes Lunar Outpost, which specializes in the development of lunar rover vehicles.

The progress of the competition will be available to be viewed by the general public. Thus, you will be able to keep track of where the students have reached. Hopefully, the race will be globally broadcasted live, so we may see the bumpers collide. This launch comes just a little time before Space X’s launch, so there’s more than one event to look forward to!

Dec 2, 2020

If you are also tired of listening to your mom about how great your cousin is in the kitchen and how you are not good at it, this post is for you. Our mothers usually scold us for not taking an interest in cooking but what is hard to make them understand is that it is not particularly the kitchen we are not interested in. It is the mainstream, everyday cooking. Don’t expect us to make tindey ki bhaaji, and we will show you what we can do. And if your mom replied that tindey ki bhaaji is the only dish you have to make because you don’t have an oven, you can always cook this cake on a stove and show her your hidden chef-self.

So what do you need when you are about to bake a cake without an oven?

You need:

1 1/2 cups of milk,
3 eggs,
2 cups of sugar,
2 tsp vanilla essence,
2 tsp baking powder,
1 stick of butter,
And 3 cups of flour.

I mean, obviously. You are only changing the mode of cooking, not the ingredients!

But what do you need as an oven replacement?

You need a pot, its lid, a stove, and, this is the most crucial part, lots of sand. Although there is a higher probability of your mom screaming at you for using the sand the way I tell you, so it’s better that you opt for an aluminum stand.

Let’s get cooking!

Start beating the egg, vanilla essence, and sugar together. If you are as lazy as me, you can even put it all in a blender, but that may ruin the cake, so it’s not recommended. Anyway, in a separate bowl, start mixing baking powder, flour, and melted butter.

After mixing it, add the ingredients from the blender to the bowl, and beat it. I, however, do it the other way around. I mean, who has the time to beat it if the blender can give me the final mixture.

Here is a secret: your family will eat whatever you cook (although with a few comments), so just do what I would.

The oven replacement

Before you start making the batter, you will have to make your own oven. Take the pot I mentioned. Put sand in it, at least one inch, and get it to heating on a mid-range flame.

Now you can imagine why I said that bit about the scolding. So just in case, I will tell you the alternative as well. Instead of sand, put an empty pot on the stove, and start heating it. When your batter is ready, put the aluminum stand in the center of the pot and put the cake container on top of the stand.

They look like this if you must know:

Shut the lid of the pot and check after 40 minutes. You will find something eatable!

Memes On Anushka Sharma Doing A Headstand Are Taking Over The Internet

Some celebrities get married, and that becomes the talk of the town, but then the news fades away as well as the stars. But then some celebrities are born for fame. Fame doesn’t leave them even if they get married or have kids. In fact, without even doing anything, their infant babies become celebrities as well. Take Kareena and Saif’s child, for instance. It has been quite some time, but the paparazzi find that Timur wore a kurta, and the news will go viral. Some assume that this fame will never fade, and Timur will remain the star kid, but there is another star couple out there.

Celeb Fame

In an interview, Saif Ali Khan’s mother commented on how Timur is always in the news, but that might all go away as soon as Anushka has a child. And this seems very plausible. Why? Because it is not just an extremely talented actress, Anushka, but also an equally gifted cricketer Virat Kohli. When the two got started dating, it made the news. When the two got married, it was news. And then they started expecting; you can connect the dots, right?

People have closely followed Anushka just as they followed Kareena throughout her pregnancy and have been amazed by how the two never treated this phase of life as an obstacle. So obviously, they will find things they do not understand. Something similar happened recently.

Anushka Sharma took to her Instagram how she resumed her Shirshasana, which the doctors have advised she can after a certain period.

A post shared by AnushkaSharma1588 (@anushkasharma)

First of all, it looks complicated. Second of all, she did it in pregnancy; everyone was just mindblown. And what is the defense mechanism for when we do not understand something? Memes!

Memes started rolling in about Anushka’s Shirshasana picture, where the baby bump was prominent.

MEME TROLLS

1. No biological sense

But then when did memes needed that?

While people have been making fun of Anushka and Virat, there have been some doctors on the internet, mentioning how this is dangerous during pregnancy. Even though it is nice that people are worried, we need to understand that parents are the most nervous about their child’s safety. So it is more than likely that they consulted doctors before doing these exercises. And had there been even slight mention of it being dangerous, they wouldn’t have gone through with it.

Plus, isn’t this just an adorable image; A father taking paternity leave to be there for his wife as they prepare for their little one’s arrival?

Zameen Developments, EBCO Constructions Sign Mall 35 Construction Contract With Tameer Constructions

Dec 2, 2020

Lahore: Zameen Developments and EBCO Constructions have signed an agreement with Tameer Constructions; granting the latter with exclusive rights to construct the grey structure of Mall 35 in Rawalpindi. The signing ceremony was held at Zameen’s Head Office in Lahore. Zameen.com CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan, Zameen Developments Director Fahad Arif Khawaja, EBCO Constructions Senior Director Hassan Sheikh, Tameer Constructions Director Operations Intikhab Akbar, and other officials concerned were all present at the event.

Commenting on the occasion, Zameen.com CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan said that Zameen Developments is committed to achieving excellence with well-planned, international standard mixed-use projects such as Mall 35. ‘We have built trust with both local and overseas Pakistanis over the course of 14 years; consistently meeting the public’s expectations with our revolutionary real estate initiatives,’ he further stated.

Zameen Developments Director Fahad Arif Khawaja stated that Mall 35 is being developed with best quality construction material in the heart of Rawalpindi. ‘Tameer Constructions is a respected name in the construction sector and have we picked them for their impressive track record on superior-quality constructions.’

Govt To Introduce Vaccine In Affordable Prices For COVID-19 Patients

The pandemic, COVID-19, has pretty much taken over the world. You will find a few anomalies, such as Turkey or Uzbekistan. They are still allowing the tourists inside their countries, but other than that, almost all countries are either exercising complete lockdown or partial lockdown. In these times of uncertainties, deaths, and unemployment, everyone has had one common prayer; the discovery of the pandemic’s vaccine.

The vaccine emerges

Thankfully, the United States announced they have finally achieved what seemed unattainable just a few months ago. While all countries have been trying to help each other out during COVID, the vaccine is probably different. Therefore, the US announced they would first fulfill their own need before they start rolling the medicine out. While they say they will begin rolling the medicine out, we all know it is not that simple. Whichever country wants it will have to pay for it.

When countries buy a vaccine, they have to sell it to their citizens. Otherwise, the government might just go into debt even further, and a country like Pakistan cannot afford that. Therefore, Pakistan will definitely not be distributing it for free but at a cost. The point, however, is to ensure that all Pakistanis, without discrimination, can access it. To discuss the prices and make the vaccine affordable, Prime Minister Imran Khan called the federal cabinet meeting.

The Federal Cabinet meeting

The meeting had a 14-point plan and amongst them was the reviewed notification for the vaccine prices. According to the reports, the notification was finalized. These recommendations were put forward by the taskforce experts operating under Special Assistant to the Prime Minister, Dr. Faisal Sultan.

Asad Umar, the Federal Minister for Planning and Development and the head of the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC), took to Twitter on Monday that the ‘recommendations for procurement of covid vaccine’ were finalized and that they will be discussed with the Federal cabinet when the meeting is called.

NCOC today finalized its recommendations for procurement of covid vaccine. These will be presented to the cabinet tomorrow for approval. The taskforce of experts headed by SAPM health Dr. Faisal Sultan had developed the recommendations which were discussed and finalized today

— Asad Umar (@Asad_Umar) November 30, 2020

Now that the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) has approved a budget of $150 million towards acquiring the budget (according to a local news publication), the government will be contacting organizations for more funding. To do bulk buying for this vaccine and then making it available to the citizen of a country who are either living on or below the poverty line, getting funding is a much-needed step. So the government will more than likely be contacting UNICEF, Asian Development Bank, and other similar organizations.

Mehwish Hayat Calls Out Netizens Over An Old Video Linked To Bilawal Bhutto

By

Dec 2, 2020

Mehwish Hayat is now being subjected to another round of match-making, and this time it is with none other than Bilawal Bhutto Zardari!

An Old Interview Can Be Deadly

A two-year-old interview of the star has resurfaced in which the mention of Bilawal is made in a suspicious context. In an interview with, By The Way, she is questioned about having found her life partner. Hayat responds to that, saying clearly that no, she has not.

Mehwish Hayat also expresses the reason for that. She believes that since she had made a name for herself at such an early age, many people can fall in love with her because of her character. She wants someone to fall in love with her for who she is from within. “Maybe someone will unlock that door,” she star says.

Upon that inquiry, the interviewer tells her that there is a “perfect bachelor.” And who might that be? It seems, according to Mehwish Hayat, it was Bilawal as she takes his name! The interviewer evades all responsibility thus and says, “I didn’t say it.”

Just like the phrase goes, “signed, sealed, delivered,” Mehwish Hayat got “baited, roped and hooked”!

Mehwish Hayat Claps Back

Hayat has always been vocal about her feelings. Just so, she has addressed the rumors about her and Bilawal again. Read her tweet here:

She is emphatically saying that whenever she would be looking to get married, she will find a man herself! There’s no need for social media to be setting her up with first an Indian goon and now a politician in Pakistan.

Who I choose to marry is my personal decision & ppl will know when it happens! Take a chill pill, guys & stop matchmaking!✋🏻Let’s not take a throwaway line in a 2-year-old interview out of context & make unnecessarily juicy headlines. Aur b Gham hain zamane mein Shadi k siwaa! LOL

— Mehwish Hayat TI (@MehwishHayat) November 29, 2020

When she says there are more issues in the world than marriage, it perfectly captures the Pakistani mindset. Because according to our society, there is not! Marriage is where the world starts and ends, unfortunately.

Why Is Mehwish Hayat Always In The News?

Something worth pondering over is why is Mehwish Hayat always in the news? Several netizens on Twitter also often laugh over this— one day, it’s one rumor she’s clearing out, and the next day it’s another. Moreover, who even has the time to go back two years to bring out a controversial line? Just recently, she was in the news for having an affair with an Indian gang-leader too.

Could it be that she is fuelling these rumors herself to stay in the news? We’ll never know for sure, but until then, this sure was humorous!

Aagha Ali Trolls A Netizen Who Didn’t Know He Was Married!

Aagha Ali Trolls A Netizen Who Didn't Know He Was Married! — Image Source: Twitter

Aagha Ali recently trolled a fan who was trying to troll him and we have to say, poetic justice sure is funny!

Trolled For Too Many Girlfriends

Aagha Ali recently put up a picture with his wife, Hina Altaf. The couple regularly shares their pictures on social media and is a delight to see. In this picture, dressed casually, the two are posing together adorably. Aagha Ali is also depicting himself to be the cliched, selfless husband in the caption: “aap khush toh hum khush.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Aagha Ali (@aaghaaliofficial)

However, one netizen, who was unaware of their marriage, was not happy in any way. This netizen thought the two were not yet married and were in the ‘boyfriend-girlfriend’ territory and so she imploded!

Check Out The Comment Here:

Aagha Ali Does Not Back Down

Having seen the comment, you must have seen Aagha Ali’s response too. Ali is not someone who backs down from a fight. Throwback to when he asked people to confront him directly instead of joking about him behind screens… Anyhow, Ali clapped back here too.

This form of poetic justice where for once a comment was literally refuted as well as trolled is a sight for sore eyes. We wonder how the netizen is feeling at the moment, hoping she took the joke in the same spirit.

Pakistanis Have A National Comeback

Pakistanis have a national comeback in any fight and it has to do with Lifebuoy’s ad that seems to never get out of our heads. “Apka sabun slow hai kya?” is what you slap someone in the face with each time they ask a dense question.

However, Ali took this a step further with his comedic streak and said that you aren’t slow at catching up, you’re simply dead! Honestly speaking, nobody expects nobody to be keeping track on Aagha Ali and Hina Altaf. However, not knowing that they are married requires one to be living under a rock.

More Fame After Marriage

How Aagha Ali and Hina Altaf got more famous after their wedding is a story known to many. It involved that classic and most romantic remark on the part of a husband, asking his wife to never get fat.

This beautiful streak of body-shaming and fat-shaming is something that was boasted by the couple on national television. Recently after that, Ali also got called out for making fun of Pathans! This guy is a gift that keeps on giving.

Apple has been one of the most popular brands of the year 2020. Despite the pandemic hitting, they managed to adapt to the new norms and hit high. Where social distancing was being practiced, they decided to shift online. People were focusing on ‘Stay At Home’ and they decided to use their to their advantage.

If they hadn’t adapted to the situation, they might not have been able to emerge as victorious as they did. It started with hyping about iPhone 12, after which they were revealed at an impressive Online-only event. They followed this up by heading another event by the name of ‘One More Thing’. In this, they revealed their latest Apple Silicon chips which are sure to give Microsoft competition. With this in mind, Apple’s new iPad Pro 2021 has sure to have some impressive features.

Ipad Pro 2021 features and release — Image Source: cnet.com

Apple Climbing Fast

If you wish to have an idea about the company’s history, there are many pop culture options available. The movie ‘Jobs’ portrays a part of his life that was crucial to his success. It is even quite known news that, after being fired from his own company, he went even higher. It did not stop him from making his own animation company that we know as ‘Pixar.’

With Apple climbing up, now the iPad Pro 2021 is set to have many new features. Currently, it is set to be released in the first quarter of the new year. The iPad has always been one of the best parts of the company. It is no surprise that they use state-of-the-art technology in each of their iPads.

The New iPad Pro 2021

So, what is that we know about the iPad Pro 2021 so far? Currently, the 2021 iPad Pro is expected to launch in the first quarter of the year, possibly somewhere around March. We know that it is set to be released in two different types of variants. Both those variants have different two types. The main variants are the ‘WiFi Only’ model and the ‘WiFi + Cellular’ model. The Wifi only has further two variants, with one at 11 inches and the second at 12.9 inches.

When talking about the ‘WiFi + Cellular’ model, it also has two variants in it. The first one is 11 inches, and the second is 12.9 inches. As the name of the model suggests, one does give an advantage over the other. Cellular offers a broader range of connectivity for the user. When talking about storage options, they start at 128GB and go as high as 512GB and even a max storage option of 1TB. That’s like a whole different external HDD equivalent!

Ipad Pro 2021 and everything to know — Image Source: newskarnataka.com

Entering The New Year

Let us a gander at the prices of each option. The ‘WiFi Only’ models are set at $799 and $999. These are the 11-inch 12.9-inch variants. Looking at the ‘WiFi + Cellular’ models, they are set at $949 and $1 149. These, again, refer to the 11-inch and 12.9-inch variants of the model.

Featuring a Quad Speaker array and an asymmetrical, beautiful display, the iPad Pro 2021 is a force to be reckoned with. Both feature a 6GB ram and the A14 Bionic chip in them. They have two main cameras, which also house a LIDAR sensor.

That being said, we hope the iPad Pro 2021 release brings about good tidings and optimal performance!

One needs major stamina to be in the public eye. And if the public eye has made you go through a major scandal, you need to use the last ounce of your stamina to continue giving back to the industry. Meesha Shafi, it seems, used that stamina because even after that the whole Ali Zafar scandal, she did not back down. In fact, the singer, known for her pop, Sufi songs, is gearing for her coke studio performance in the upcoming season.

Hameed Akhtar

Meesha Shafi is the daughter of Saba Hameed that everyone knows. But did you know that her nana, maternal grandfather was Hameed Akhtar, the literary giant? Yesterday, on the occasion of her 39th birthday, the singer took to her Instagram sharing a throwback picture of her first birthday. The columnist and secretary-general of Progressive Writers Association of Pakistan played a considerable role, the singer says, in forming her beliefs, her values, and stamina. She calls these gifts that keep on giving, unlike the material gifts which end.

The singer pens down a heartfelt message for her grandfather, who left a significant impact on her and whom she misses even after nine years of his passing. She shared it with a picture where he is seen holding a 1-year old Meesha.

The note to her grandfather

“Just like the gifts I got from the great man holding me in this picture, my nana, the progressive, socialist, literary giant Hamid Akhtar. He gave me the gift of free-thinking, wisdom, guidance, resilience, literature, self-expression, poetry, speaking truth to power, and political awareness. The first truly woke influence in my life. And the first feminist man I ever came across. Papa, I love you so much, on this day, I just want to acknowledge that I wouldn’t be who or where I am if it weren’t for you.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Meesha Shafi (@meesha.shafi)

It seems that she is soon going to be announcing five songs. But this is just speculation taken from the other half of her message. The singer adds to her Instagram post that:

“In this spirit of sharing gifts that keep on giving, I’d like to announce the five juicy presents for all my lovely fans and followers as we kick off my birthday month. I had to use all the traits I learned from my grandfather to rise back up from the ashes and create this new work.

Stay tuned for so many musical goodies. 🥳🥳🥳”

We will, indeed! Stay strong, stay vocal, and keep giving us masterpieces. We are looking forward to what you have in store for us.

Anwar Maqsood Makes Fun Of Pakistani Dramas And Their Names

Anwar Maqsood Makes fun of drama industry — Image Source: Tribune

Legendary scriptwriter, comedian, satirist, and celebrity Anwar Maqsood who is famous for his social commentary and humorous takes on current affairs and other issues took to his son, Bilal Maqsood’s, Instagram on a live session where he expressed his views on the Pakistani drama industry.

So when and where did this happen?

In the live session on Bilal Maqsood’s Instagram, which is now titled “Q. Aap drama Kyun Nahi likhtay,” Anwar Maqsood can be seen sitting next to his son and expressing his views in his signature humorous fashion.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Bilal Maqsood (@bilalxmaqsood)

Anwar Maqsood expressed that he keeps asking why he does not write dramas anymore upon which he tributes some of the veterans scriptwriters like Ashfaq Ahmed, Bano Qudsia, Munoon Bhai, Intizar Hussain. They are not alive anymore as an excuse for not writing any scripts. After that, he uses puns and wittiness to make fun of the names of Pakistani Dramas of today.

Anwar Maqsood has always been vocal about his views and has opted for satire and humor to express his thoughts. The legendary scriptwriter, whose show Loose talk with the late Moin Akhtar still holds a lot of admiration by fans and industry, has been holding live sessions with his son, Bilal Maqsood, on his Instagram once in a while, where he gets candid and responds to a few questions from the barrage of them asked by his fans all around the world.

Not too long ago, fans were furious upon finding out about the launch of a show with the same pattern as Loose talk that Anwar Maqsood conducted with Yasir Hussain. It forced many fans to assume that Yasir Hussain was a replacement for the Late Moin Akhtar.

People who have still not gotten over the loss of the legendary actor Moin Akhtar expressed their criticism of Yasir Hussain’s casting on a show with a similar format as unbelievable. Many tweets and commentators commented that they felt this would tarnish the legacy of The Loose talk, which still holds a nostalgic place in everyone’s hearts today despite being discontinued many years ago.

Anwar Maqsood, who has been a well-known scriptwriter for his dramas aired on PTV in the 1970s and 1980s, is a very well-respected veteran of our showbiz industry. Even-though he has not been very active as he used to due to his old age, his contributions to the Pakistani showbiz industry have been celebrated on a national level as well. The Government of Pakistan acknowledged his work by awarding him with Pride Of Performance in the year 1994 and Hilal e Imtiaz, which is the second-highest military and civilian honor in 2013 for his valuable contributions to the industry.

Dec 1, 2020

There’s good news for all pizza lovers— there’s a new pizza in town and it’ll blow your taste buds away!

OPTP Ventures Into Pizza Territory

Pakistan’s beloved OPTP has ventured into the pizza territory. A tricky territory for all but OPTP has aced everything on their menu. That is why, we have no doubt about their latest addition too which is a cheesy, loaded, pizza!

OPTP has introduced a new 9-inch Medium Pan Style Pizza and you’re going to want to know about it!

The Mouth-Watering Specialities

The 9-inch Medium Pan Style Pizza is made using OPTP’s signature dough. It’s flavourful and filling but it’s just as light and fluffy. They promise to use only the best Mozzarella cheese which means when you pull your slice, there are going to be intense cheese pulls! Who doesn’t love biting into a pizza with an overbearing taste of Mozzarella cheese?

But, that’s not where this love story ends. Their marinara sauce is an in-house special. We all know sauces are OPTP’s forte so this one should be exciting! Veggies, chicken etc are the additional toppings you can have on. It sounds like the perfect thing to have on pick-me-up days. Or every day!

The Flavour Roulette

There is no fun in having an excellent pizza without fun and exciting flavours. OPTP understands that which is why they offer 6 wonderful flavours you can choose from. Think Creamy Arabian, Pakistani Tikka, Mexican jalapeno, classic cheese, American pepperoni & Smoked Italian.

Is anyone else’s mouth-watering? Ours sure is especially with the mention of ‘Creamy Arabian’! You can make your favourite flavours even more exciting by adding your favourite toppings too. If you’re the jalapeno person, or a pepperoni one or olives one, they’ve got you covered.

The Price Is The Best Part

Now, let’s get down to the best part- the price! In most cases, a pizza that good makes the price the ‘bad part’. However, OPTP offers you their incredible 9-inch Medium Pan Style Pizza in just Rs499+tax! Isn’t it unbelievable?

Continue being excited because in Rs499+tax, you not only get an incredible pizza, you can also feed two! The 9-inch Medium Pan Style Pizza is perfect for two as recommended by OPTP itself.

However, if you’re a pizza lover, we understand. Not everybody likes sharing! In that case, you can enjoy your favourite pizza at that remarkable price all by yourself.

Are Feroze Khan & Alizey Sultan Parting Ways?

By

Dec 1, 2020

Breakups and divorces have become mainstream these days. Our dramas are increasingly portraying the concept of divorces, and they are showing a negative connotation of it. We do not say that if two people are incompatible, they should continue to be in a toxic relationship. All we are trying o say is that if people are choosing to divorce, it is not always because one partner is cheating on the other, which is what Pakistani dramas are showcasing. So God Forbid, there is a rumor about a divorce, and the first thought people have is that.

Separations in the entertainment industry

So, let’s see what is going on in the entertainment industry. Shehroz – Saira was the hot topic at the start of the year. Then there was some other rumors/news along the way. And the most recent one was Farhan and Urwa. Now that that news started dwindling, people began putting forward speculations regarding the marital life of Feroz Khan.

Feroz Khan married Syeda Alizey Fatima Raza two years ago, in 2018. Considering it was an inter-sect marriage, people assumed it was a love marriage. But then Feroze Khan and his family came forward to refute that rumor.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Feroze Khan (@ferozekhan)

The beautiful couple went through quite a sweet period together and documented it all on their Instagram accounts. And by last year, they had a son. Occasionally they should post his pictures on their Instagram account. Meanwhile, Alizey even changed her name to Alizey Sultan to show her love for her child.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Feroze Khan (@ferozekhan)

But what are Feroze-Alizey up to?

Alizey has recently deactivated her account, where she would update her fans with happenings of her marital life. And many publications are under the assumption that Feroze and Alizey have unfollowed each other. Well, first of all, if someone has deactivated their account, the argument about unfollowing becomes useless.

Although there is another point to discuss, a publication went as far as speculating that the mothers of Alizey and Feroze have unfollowed each other. Now, when issues reach your parents, I think that is the point of no return.

But here is the thing. People like weaving patterns out of such news. One such custom blamed the speculated separation on Hania Aamir (probably because of their out-of-the-charts chemistry in Ishqiya).

But here is to hoping that Feroze will refute the rumor about this separation just as he came forward to deny the buzz about it being a love marriage.

Top 5 Unsolved Mysteries The World Is Clueless About

Mysteries of the world never ceases to amaze one if they were to sit back and think about it. Well, if you were to think about it, everything would come off as a mystery; birth of a baby, the blooming of a flower, changing of day to night and back to the day. And so, it is crucial to operationalize the definition of mystery. For this article, we will be using it as a phenomenon that has not yet had a factual scientific explanation. Here are some unsolved mysteries of the world that most people are still not aware of. If you can think of more, do let us know.

1. Pyramid of Giza

Pyramids themself are a mystery considering they are structures that could not be made from tools available in the times they were constructed. So the pyramid of Giza is a mystery within a mystery, really. The pyramid that had stone weighing tonnes were loaded on top stones that weighed tonnes. And people right now can not understand how the humans of those times managed it; some like to believe there was alien involvement. But the mystery is the void in the center of the pyramid. At the center, there is a space, 150 feet long, and people cannot pinpoint what it contains.

2. Doppelganger

At one point in time, there are seven people with similar faces. So basically, you have six look-alikes in the world! But does that mean if there are 7 billion people globally, there are only 1 billion different faces? This mystery reminds me of The Princess Switch!

3. Mohenjodaro

A mystery in our very own backyard! Mohenjodaro is located in Pakistan. It is one of the oldest Indus Valley civilizations that existed 4500 years ago. Moreover, from the tools and the lifestyle uncovered until now, it tells you that they were an advanced society in the times they existed. What makes them a mystery is their whereabouts. They, it seems, disappeared, leaving all their belongings as it is.

4. Atlantis

The lost city that sunk underwater and kept functioning, at least that’s how the mystery goes. Now either the residents were top scientists who knew how to make oxygenated masks, or they too were aliens (because that is the only justification to everything unimaginable, isn’t it?) I mean, it could be magic too… hello, Salem witches!

5. Blackhole

Did you know that scientists wanted to see what is on the other side of a black hole? Something that got its name because it looked empty and just black. So they positioned their equipment towards the black hole and were able to photograph a very negligible, tiny portion of the black hole. Did you know what they saw in it? Gazillion stars! Galaxies.

So that makes me wonder just how many possibilities for aliens there could be. Not that we have explored all the galaxies in the universe, but if the black holes themselves are that vast, just how many more galaxies and universes there are at one point. It also leads to a hypothesis that being sucked in a black hole might not mean the end for universes.

Mysteries do intrigue us. They keep life interesting. And we can only hope to find answers to these mysteries in our lifetime. But will we? That is a question better left for the scientists to answer.
