Safina Behroze Criticized For Dancing On Her Daughter’s Wedding

Anger and frustration are universal human emotions, but that doesn’t mean you have to be a victim of negative feelings. As adults, we have an obligation to our family and ourselves to avoid allowing our emotions to get the best of us. Let’s face it. Being a parent is tough. When you want a peaceful time in the bathroom for more than two minutes without hearing little footsteps outside the curtain, it can be incredibly frustrating. Or, when you’ve told your child for the gazillionth time to turn off the light when they leave a room, it can make you want to pull your hair out.

One way that many different parents express their anger and frustration is by yelling at their kids. It’s not because they want to necessarily, but because sometimes they get so overwhelmed, they lose control. Other times it may just be easier to holler than to learn strategies to become a calmer parent.

There are many responses you can choose when faced with a situation that makes your blood boil. Finding peace is possible! Learn to manage your anger and arrive at a peaceful solution using these strategies.

1. Think About The Consequences

It’s tempting to run with your exasperation in the short term, but giving in to rage can cause even more challenges. Before lashing out at your kids or taking what you consider appropriate actions, consider how things will be when the smoke clears.

2. Self Reflect

Did someone physically harm you? Did they let you down? Violate one of your values? Figure out why you’re frustrated, and you’ll be able to take the necessary steps to discover a solution.

3. Play

Starting a tickle war, making silly faces, and laughing it off help change the entire mood of the house. Not only do you calm down, but you get your kids’ attention, and it’s just another great way to connect with them. The power of play is solid and real. I dare you to try this and see for yourself.

4. Get it out

When our emotions bubble up, sometimes the best thing we can do is get it out. Go outside and scream, and if you feel like you need to scream at your kids, scream, “I LOVE YOU!” Those three words will remind you that you do love your kids, even when you’re angry. Once you get that initial burst of anger out, it’s time to focus and re-access the situation. Going into ranting and raving isn’t always all that helpful, but you can talk it out.

5. Look For Solutions

Acting in anger is about making yourself feel better. Rather than yelling at your kids, for instance, work on finding a peaceful solution. The outcome will be much better and well worth your time.

6. Practice Relaxation Techniques

The more relaxed you are regularly as a parent, the less likely you are to become angry. Relaxation techniques can also be helpful after the fact. Learn how to self-soothe. It’s a skill that can be learned.

7. Move

Moving our bodies is a great way to get out some of that anger. Whether cleaning your house, going for a walk, or shaking it off, the physical movement gets out some of that pent-up aggression in healthy ways. This can help deal with some of that emotional flooding we feel when we get angry. It helps bring your brain functioning to a place of logic instead of its primal emotional place. Plus, exercise releases feel-good endorphins into your body and is an instant mood lifter.

8. Focus On The Big Picture

Imagine that you knew the world would come to an end next Friday. Would you be upset if your child didn’t hang his backpack? Of course not.

Nida Yasir Underfire For Inviting Saas Bahu To Her Show For Ratings

By

Nov 19, 2021

Pakistani channels’ morning shows are infamous for tapping into or kickstarting controversies almost every other day. Well, the popular host, Nida Yasir has landed herself in yet another controversy for an episode themed around saas-bahu. This time she had invited pairs of mother and daughter-in-law to talk about the issues they were having that led to fights.

Viral clip of Nida Yasir show

The idea behind the saas-bahu talk may just be nice. People should indeed talk their problems out. Not talking about what they are struggling with leads to the wound festering. And that becomes the basis of the saas-bahu fights most of our Pakistani dramas are based on.

Well, Nida Yasir invited the pairs and told them to give their point of view of what might be the struggle and how the other person is falling into the expectation arena. In the clip, you can see the mother-in-law saying that she is not happy with her bahu being a working woman. She says that she was indeed looking for an educated and beautiful woman for her son but one who chooses to stay home. This statement in itself is numerous levels of problematic but let’s focus on the fact that Nadia raised the matter on a public platform.

Nida Yasir just topped her own problematic af standards on this show where she invited saas bahus to complain about each other.
Like here, a saas claims she hired a marriage bureau to find her a “perfect” bahu who is educated BUT MUST stay home – only to discover she’s “phuar”.🙃 pic.twitter.com/sK24FDOyiC

— Kanwal Ahmed (@kanwalful) November 17, 2021

Morning show content

What is terrifying is that not only were Pakistani dramas overflowing with the saas-bahu masala, now the morning shows will be rampant with it too. Nida is usually the initiator, and other morning shows follow suit. She used to have celebrities have pretend-weddings/. And when it wasn’t celebrities, she would have underprivileged people marry on her show. This sparked a whole theme of weddings on morning shows. Soon, everyone was doing it.

There was another instance where morning shows began having makeup artists prepare brides, or Mehendi artists applying bridal Mehendi. All of this, just for ratings? And now, to maintain ratings, the host invited saas-bahu to have a fight on-air; how low can the shows get?

Netizens were not happy

The netizens on any platform the video was posted, were not happy. They expressed disgust at the idea behind these shows. But that also leads to one asking, if these many people are hateful of the content, why then are these shows getting TRPs; why do show creators get the opportunity to say, ‘But we get TRPs so, we’ll keep producing.’

Its 21st century bhyeee!!!agey barho.electronic media ko wisely use kren to educate people but…..too much to expect from nida yasir

— Dr.Sidrah (@Sidrah1203) November 18, 2021

The problem is as long as there is viewership for such content you & i can complain all we want we will keep seeing such programmes.
Why do u think saas bahu star plus dramas were a popular hit in pakistan bcos majority of the people want to see such stuff.

— Sheikh Raheel (@Sheiikhster) November 17, 2021

We need to take it seriously Sobiah.

Millions watch her show & they reinforce these outdated stereotypes

— Sophia Ahmed (@sophiaahmed) November 17, 2021

Welp nothing can be done about this chief. This mentality ain't going away with a change of government. There needs to be a radical socio-economic shift coupled with educational reforms to begin to change this mentality. Oh and yes things aren't changing for the next 50 years lol

— Asil 🪐 (@artemisinfur) November 17, 2021

Until when will we get such derogatory shows? The netizens are asking you, Nida!

CAA Launches Incident Control App & Here’s What You Need To Know

Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) launches an app especially for travelers to ensure their safe travels. Given that recently, PIA and civil aviation have been under the spotlight for incidents more than usuals, this seems a good measure to counter that.

CAA launches app

The application is for Android users only for now since as you know most applications make it to iOS App Store fairly late. The name with which it has been put up is PCAA Hazards and its goal is to become passengers’ go-to app whenever they encounter a hazard or incident in-flight. The Voluntary Hazard/Incident Reporting System. Passengers will be able to contact the authorities at CAA directly for areas such as hazard, incident, accident, damage, deficiency, violation, failure, or in-flight services.

PCAA Hazard’s aim is to give user-friendly platform and resources to the general public and
stakeholders for identifying and reporting hazards and incidents.

Safety is Everyone's Responsibility.
_____________________________
PCAA is pleased to announce the launch of an android app “Voluntary Hazard/Incident Reporting System”. The application can be accessed and downloaded from Google Play Store. pic.twitter.com/M1A5secsXL

— PCAAOfficial (@official_pcaa) November 18, 2021

PCAA Hazards

When a passenger is using the app, they will have the option to upload files and pictures alongside conveying their side of the story about the matter. Moreover, the passengers will also have the option to stay anonymous. As a result, more people will feel empowered to take the initiative of speaking up against any violation. This initiative comes as CAA displays its zero-tolerance policy towards violation of procedures and standards relating to safe operations of aircraft. That said, passengers can still access the form through CAA’s website.

The App seems to be easy to use but it will become more evident once people start using the App and rating it.

As travellers, it is our ethical responsibility to ensure that if we experience a violation we report it. This would result in the passengers traveling after us having a safer flight.

The Automotive Industry’s Chip Shortage Might Be Over Soon

auto industry nearly done with chip shortage — Image Source: economictimes.indiatimes.com

The world of electronics is one that is always improving. The pace of improvement is so swift, we are often taken aback by it. Just over a century ago, we came to know about the invention of the automobile. Now, self-driving cars are becoming the new normal as time goes by. There are companies that are certainly working on it. Electronics have such a wide scope that work on them can never end. No matter which area you look at, smartphones or automobiles, the progress is present. However, the global chip shortage has certainly caused a hindrance in development.

The chip shortage has impacted quite a lot of industries, especially the automotive one. There have been delays in vehicle productions because of their unavailability. Despite all that, and a pandemic raging, brands have managed to survive and push through. Now, it seems that the chip shortage, for the automotive industry, might be heading towards an end. We might be getting back to that level again!

Chip Shortage Lessening

Many automakers have had to enact cost-cutting measures to make sure they don’t lag behind in the industry. However, that means compromising on certain features of the car. While analysts have said that the crisis will worsen in the next two quarters, there has been news that states otherwise. Morgan Stanley has reported that the issue is nearly going to be over for the auto industry.

According to reports, Malaysia has returned to the full capacity of microchip production and they are persisting with it. It seems there is predicted success in this area, including the production of newer vehicles. The more the chips are produced, the better the auto brands return to maximum manufacturing. The report also stated that other manufacturers are soon expected to follow suite when it comes to microchip production.

Manufacturing Electronics

We hope that this news is as true as they come. Auto manufacturers want nothing more than to return to the level they were residing at. Additionally, if this is happening in the auto industry, other industries are sure to return to normal working capacity too. Is it alright for us to hope for a decrease in the prices of electronics, especially Graphics cards?

Morgan Stanley has also stated that Japan is going to normalize its chip productions by December of this year. All of these sound like good news for us and everyone else! After all, 2020 has not been an entirely fruitful year, especially with this chip shortage and a pandemic.

5 Places To Find The best ‘Thelay Wala Soup’ In Karachi

By

-

Nov 19, 2021

If you are a true karachiite, you’ll know that yes, we do have branded food outlets, but ‘jitna ghaleez utna lazeez’ (the dirtier, the tastier). So the food you will find at the roadside vendors, or as we call them thelay wale, they beat any branded food item and are also very economical. And since it’s the time of winter, so the food that is the hit of this season is soup. So let’s list down for you the best soups in the city.

1. AZAM SOUP

Located at Baitul Mukarram, Azam soup is reportedly the best soup in town. It is super tasty, and the chips laden on the soup are incredibly spicy and tasty as well. What is more is that it is super economical. I mean, can you imagine a good starter at only PKR 60. And if you want it with an egg, then it is PKR 90. For those who would want to try it, look at the backside of bait ul Mukarram.

2. North Nazimabad. Opposite to Al Karim Supermarket.

The soup stall goes back ten years, so basically, they are serving you with the ten-year-old legacy. And trust me, it is one of the best in the city. It is located in North Nazimabad, and the price of the soup ranges from Rs. 40 to Rs. 60. Whoever tries it ends up giving it a ten on 10 for quality.

3. North Nazimabad

Anther roadside soup in the area of North Nazimabad is qualified to be listed here. It has a different color, not like the usual one. It looks a bit orange. You can take it with soy sauce and green chatni too, unusual, right? But the soup is still a ten on ten even if you opt for no sauces. So eat it while standing as you should because it is no five-star restaurant; it is a thelay wala. You can find it near AL Hasan Chowrangi, Nazimabad No. 1, Karachi. And it only costs PKR 60.

4. Bolton Market

Called SaifUllah Soup, the roadside vendor can be found in Bolton Market. If you have a late-night craving for the soup, you can totally go to MA Jinnah Road even if it is 3 am, and you will be able to find that little corner alive. Whoever tries it will never be able to forget the taste.

4. Battair Soup

Now, whenever you hear of soup, you will immediately think of Chicken (of course, that is, if you are a karachiite, if you are from Lahore, well donkey or rat or anything can roll). But yes, a karachiite, anything other than chicken, is unusual. But what if I were to tell you that you can find a battair soup and one which tastes super awesome?

So it is located at Khilafat Chowk; there, near the Peshawari yakhni, you will find this vendor.

5. Salamat Chicken Corn Soup

This one is for my friends from the other side of the bridge since every other vendor was from this side. I present to you Salamat Chicken Corn Soup. You can get the serving for only PKR 50, and they serve it to you with chips & papri. It is located near PSO Petrol Pump, opposite glass tower, Teen Talwar.

When you have soups day out and try all these, do let us know if you agree with us or not.

6 Things To Keep In Mind While Planning An Intimate Wedding

6 Things To Keep In Mind While Planning An Intimate Wedding — Image source: https://images.dawn.com/

There was a time when all were invited to a wedding; extended families, family friends, old friends, and everyone you work with. But in recent years, if one thing COVID has taught us is the importance of small intimate and valuable weddings. Big fat weddings have found contentment in intimate ceremonies. However, the task of planning for a wedding is still there and in the case of an intimate one is an entirely different process.

Intimate weddings allow the ceremony to be more personalized, and the little details can become more meaningful. From more minor details to personalized elements, here are a lot more tips to look out for and make your intimate wedding an unforgettable one.

1. Focus On What’s Important For ‘YOU’

You and your spouse’s big day, and you two are the only people whose opinions matter. Not all weddings need to have a DJ, a Qawali night, and an extra fancy wedding cake. Focusing on what you want at the wedding will help free up some budget and make your wedding more personal.

2. Add Small Personalized Details

More minor styling details at an intimate wedding can create a warmer ambiance and make your guests feel more comfortable, rather than opting for large ceiling installations or extravagant centerpieces.

For example, cozy lighting such as candles can be used, creating seating and table layouts to make everyone feel included. Soft and lush florals are also a great way to make tables feel luxurious.

3. The Guest List

The guest experience is often richer with smaller parties, as the couple can spend quality time with everyone. But, because there’s more focus on guests, it means that their experience needs to be high on the agenda too.

Think about how the day will unfold and all the touches that can be added to make it feel exclusive and unique, which a giant wedding party might not achieve. This can include a small event for the guests or the couple in which the guests can also participate.

4. Add Personality

One of the many reasons that couples opt for an intimate wedding is to break away from tradition and add some personality to proceedings. With a smaller wedding party, you have the opportunity to make the day your own. With less than 50 guests to think about, it’s possible to create bespoke touches within your wedding budget.

5. Have A Backup Plan

Just because a wedding is intimate doesn’t mean unforeseen circumstances can’t happen! Things like bad weather, guests arriving late, and issues with vendors can arise, so ensure you have a contingency plan with the bridal party if anything does happen. For example, if you plan a garden reception and it rains, can your guests head indoors to continue?

6. Make Your Own Rules

The great advantage of a small wedding is the ability to plan it on your terms. Since you’re keeping the day intimate, this means opting out of ‘unnecessary’ traditions. It wouldn’t look out of place to have one or no bridesmaids. The beauty of an intimate wedding means that anything goes.

Apple Will Now Sell You iPhone Parts For Fixing Phone At Home

Apple is on its way to becoming the highest champion of the tech industry. It is leaving behind such a mark that its name will resonate through decades and centuries. The company’s advancements in tech are something of the stuff of legends. When they speak, the world listens. When they are about to launch a new product, everyone turns their attention to them. You know the product is robust and up-to-date with modern technology when you see that fruit logo on it.

Now, it seems that Apple has decided to launch a whole new scheme or, a service of sorts. Just a while back, we came to know that an engineer had designed something. That design was an iPhone that had a working USB-C port. This shows that innovation has no bounds and is just waiting to present itself at every turn. According to sources, Apple will now sell you iPhone parts, separately.

iPhone and self repair service — Image Source: 9to5mac.com

Apple And iPhone Parts

There was a time when Apple did not condone the practice of device repair from anywhere but the official stores. Now, they have gone lenient on this deal, introducing a whole new ‘Self-Repair’ service for customers. For now, the repair extends to the display, battery, and camera but we are sure to see newer options soon. What they will do is that they will sell you the necessary tools and parts needed to perform the repair, alongside an instruction manual.

Of course, it is primarily meant for people who are trained and have expertise in the repair of electronic devices. However, it is also meant for people who feel comfortable opening up and repairing their own phones. This self-repair is not going to void the iPhone’s warranty. However, if the damage is done during self-repair, then the warranty will be void. For now, Apple has introduced this service for iPhone 12 and 13. This is a major shift for Apple and one that is going to gather even more people.

Do It Yourself

Apple says that it plans to sell more than 200 parts and tools to consumers who need them. They have not mentioned a price for the tools and parts, though. We expect to see a list of that soon enough! Of course, customers can get recycling credit for returning their used parts after the completion of a repair. Despite everything, this seems like an impressive and bold move by the company.

We hope that more and more people turn to this service for avail because it offers quite a lot to the user. Not only do they get to repair the phone themselves, but they also get to take the parts to third-party repairers. The question still stands as to how long will the parts be available from only Apple and not from other sources.

ICC Champions Trophy: India Expected To Pull Out Due To Security Concerns

ICC Champions Trophy — Image Source: dnaindia.com

After the sweeping victory of Pakistan against India, the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 will forever be engraved in our minds. While it would have been incredible to see the archrival suffer more at our hands, it seems the 152-0 have invoked security concerns amongst Indians. Will that have an effect on the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, let’s have a look at it!

Pakistan’s image in the cricket world

Pakistan’s cricket has suffered due to the country’s image in the media. The most recent blows to the image will be when New Zealand and England, both pulled out of the tour scheduled for the land of the green shirts. After such incidents, Pakistan was able to slap the haters back with their incredible performance as they remained unbeaten for five matches in a row during the T20 World cup and were the first team to qualify for the semi-finals.

Could it be after that that the ICC decided the Champions Trophy could be hosted by Pakistan; we will not know.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Brandsynario (@brandsynario)

India might just pull out

Ever since the news was made public, Pakistan had rejoiced at the announcement. It meant that our image would be made better globally. But with the notification, there was also a thought spurring in the back of the mind that whether India would even come in or not. It must have been a thought on both sides of the border because the Indian ministers are hinting at how their team will possibly pull out of the tournament.

Indian Sports Minister Anurag Thakur said:

“When the time will come, the Indian government and the Home Ministry will take a decision. During the international championships, all the factors are looked upon.”

Apparently, for him, Pakistan was not safe as a location for their team to play.

But is it really the security concerns from Pakistan or from the Pakistani team that has scared them?

Pakistan’s delight on ICC Champions Trophy

While India worries about its participation in ICC Champions Trophy, Pakistan is in celebratory mode. Pakistan Cricket Board’s chairman tweeted how being the tournament’s host is a matter of pride for the country.

It’s a matter of great pride and delight that Pakistan will be hosting ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This great news will surely excite millions of Pakistani fans, expats and world fans to see great teams and players in action and will allow the world to sample our hospitality.

— Ramiz Raja (@iramizraja) November 16, 2021

We would totally like for the Indians to come across the border, however. it will be a shame to miss the chance of defeating them yet again.

UN Responds To Elon Musk’s Challenge On Solving World Hunger

By

Nov 18, 2021

elon musk world hunger — Image Source: NDTV Gadgets

Elon Musk’s outspokenness may have just cost him his Tesla and reputation! The richest man on Earth openly challenged the UN thinking they had their facts wrong. However, the tables have now turned and the UN has responded to the challenge, leaving Elon Musk at a disadvantage. What will unfold now?

Recap Of The Context

A few weeks earlier, someone tweeted that a very small percentage of Elon Musk’s wealth could solve world hunger. That amount approximated to $6.8 billion only. This figure seemed rather preposterous to Elon Musk and he openly challenged the UN! He said if the UN can make a plan suggesting how only this amount can solve world hunger, he will sell Tesla and donate the money.

Transparency and accountability are essential to us and our donors. WFP’s financial statements, operational plans, audits & annual reports, etc. are all public. We have open books. Here’s the link: https://t.co/ZuAIUvgy2c

— David Beasley (@WFPChief) November 15, 2021

However, his condition was that a transparent plan is made. People need to see where the money comes and goes. This is significant because, over the past few years, the UN has received more than $7 billion in donations. So why is world hunger still a thing?

UN Strikes Back

But guess what? Now the UN has responded to his tweet and accepted his challenge with the full plan. The head of the WFP, David Beasley, called out Musk and held him accountable for the challenge. His tweet is an open call-out to Musk whose overconfidence might be hurting him now.

This hunger crisis is urgent, unprecedented, AND avoidable. @elonmusk, you asked for a clear plan & open books. Here it is! We’re ready to talk with you – and anyone else – who is serious about saving lives. The ask is $6.6B to avert famine in 2022: https://t.co/eJLmfcMVqE

— David Beasley (@WFPChief) November 15, 2021

A few hours ago, David Beasley tweeted, “This hunger crisis is urgent, unprecedented, AND avoidable. @elonmusk, you asked for a clear plan & open books. Here it is!” Beasley said. “We’re ready to talk with you – and anyone else – who is serious about saving lives.”

What Is The UN Suggesting?

In the statement that has been released to the public, the UN said US$3.5 billion would be used to purchase and deliver food. In addition to that, US$2 billion would go towards cash and food vouchers for others. Moreover, US$700 million would be earmarked for countries to design and implement food programs to sustain themselves. Lastly, US$400 million would ensure proper management of global and regional operations and other logistical challenges.

According to the leader, the world is on fire. The rising inflation rates, epidemics and pandemics and climate change is aggravating the levels of world hunger. Beasley added: “IT IS HERE. 45M lives are at stake—and increasing daily. If you don’t feed people, you feed conflict, destabilization & mass migration.” Will Musk rise to the challenge?

Here’s Why The Toyota Camry Is Worth An Investment

toyota camry and why it is worth an investment — Image Source: todayheadline.co

Toyota has quite a lot of weight in Pakistan. It has been here for a long time now and has established itself quite well. The Toyota Corolla is one of the most popular cars in Pakistan. Its rugged build makes it a suitable car for rough and smooth terrain. No matter where we are, Toyota cars have the ability to make us feel as if we are sitting in something premium. Just like that, the Toyota Camry is one of the most reliable vehicles in Pakistan. However, it does come at a hefty investment.

The car is currently available at a price of Rs.1 Crore 86 Lacs. Despite the cost, the Toyota Camry is definitely worth an investment. No matter which variant you get, the vehicle is not going to disappoint you. In fact, it has a lifeline that can last the vehicle for more than a decade and beyond without issues. You need not worry about maintenance a lot when driving a Camry. So, why is it that this car is worth an investment?

Toyota Camry Investment

Firstly, the vehicle gives an impressive fuel economy and its build quality is robust. The Toyota Camry can survive quite a lot of impacts and come back from it in one piece. The vehicle is not only robust in its chassis but under the hood as well. To have such a powerful engine that can tow quite a lot of weight makes this vehicle a worthy buy. The hybrid quality of the car makes it a great investment in terms of fuel.

Additionally, the vehicle does not contain previous generation technology inside it. If you decide to invest in a Toyota Camry, you can be sure that you will receive the best of the year that it has been made in. Not only that, the vehicle is guaranteed to have every feature you are looking for, in a car. Since Toyota is continuously improving its vehicles, there is no doubt that the Camry is going to be quite ahead of its competitors. In fact, it has the same price bracket as a lower variant of the Land Cruiser, but better fuel economy. (The highest variant of the Land Cruiser costs near to Rs.5 Crore in Pakistan)

Luxury Cars

That said, it must also be mentioned that the vehicle comes under the luxurious banner. Not only does it look premium, it feels premium too. You know you are sitting in something that is straight from the current and near-future 21st century. Yes, the car even feels like it shouldn’t be released for the next decade or so. It is that luxurious! This also accounts for the price of the vehicle. The luxury tax applies to this one, similar to Honda Accord.

That said, we always urge people to go for investment if they are sure of it. If your budget allows it, and if you really want to go for it, then a hybrid Toyota Camry is quite a worthwhile investment.

There are sedans in the lower price bracket that cost less than Rs.50 Lac but they may not offer quite as much as this one does.

With numerous other guests one after the other, the show had a second season and then the third season. From time to time, the show manages to start controversies as well; Feroze Khan and Mathira’s episodes would be the perfect examples to quote. The most recent controversy from the show involves Hareem Shah and Sheikh Rasheed.

TBH 3.0 guest Hareem Shah

TBH 3.0 has called Hareem Shah as a guest. The full episode will be released on 24th November it seems, but it is already gathering attention with the teaser. The channel released a small excerpt from the episode. In it, as Tabish’s obsession goes with Sheikh Rasheed, he asked Hareem Shah to call him.

Hareem, immediately, started looking around for her phone which a girl came to hand to her. She dialled the number and showed the phone to the camera. It seems that she has saved the Interior Minister’s number as ‘Sheikhu’. It goes to prove how close the two must be for her to save the number with a term of endearment.

Sheikh Rasheed to Hareem Shah

The moment the call connected and his voice was heard, Tabish was surprised (either he is a great actor or it was unscripted). The first sentence by Sheikh Rasheed was that Hareem should call him later, he couldn’t talk at the moment. When Hareem insisted, Sheikh Rasheed said and we quote, ‘bakwas band karen.’

Take a look at the video below:

The way Hareem laughed at the comment it is clear though that the shut up call by Sheikh Rasheed was all in good humour. They are friends, close enough to be this informal with each other.

Of course, now we want to know how the rest of the call preceded, so will just have to mark the calendar now, won’t we?

Nov 17, 2021

Following Pakistan’s remarkable performance in the T20 world cup, Pepsi has released a video in order to pay tribute to the heroes of the Pakistan Cricket team.

Pakistan’s Cricket And Pakistani’s Enthusiasm

The T20 world cup was nothing less than an emotional roller coaster ride for the Pakistanis. The Pakistani cricket team’s winning streak was one of the main reasons which made everyone a fan of the cricket team. Every match played by the Pakistan cricket team was outstanding and even better than the last one. Moreover, the performance of the team in the semi-final was also exceptional. However, it was only hard luck that the team couldn’t win the match.

Regardless, the enthusiasm of the team and the public was uncanny during this entire series. The fighting spirit, the vast screen displays, the gatherings, everything was made ten times more exciting given that this was the first time in a long time Pakistani’s felt excited over their mutually shared love for cricket. The same enthusiasm and emotions are captured by Pepsi in their latest video, mirroring the same emotions everyone goes through as the team steps down in the ground.

Let’s look at this tribute, which sure will make your patriotic blood gush through the veins.

It is celebrating the passion that lives in every Pakistani’s heart. Indeed. The video was phrased with some of the most beautiful lines. One such line quoted,

“Only eleven people step on the ground, but two hundred and twenty million people play in the match. People who win the hearts of two hundred and twenty million people just by playing. In the name of those who are winning our hearts.”

The series might be over, but we shall be waiting for the next match, where we will be able to experience the same rush of emotions once again. Till then, we will wait for the team to make a fantastic comeback.

Pakistan’s Achievements

Pakistan’s cricket team’s achievements also landed them a great educational opportunity. Karachi University announced scholarships for the entire T20 world cup squad to help them pursue a degree at the institute.

Did you like the tribute? Let us know in the comments below.

Humaima Malik took to Instagram to warn social media users for spreading her edited images. In a series of social media posts, the actress mentioned how some of the pages and fans edited her photos vulgarly and circulated them all over social media.

“Some of my pictures have been circulating around the internet badly (vulgarly) edited… it’s a shame how can people do this. I request those fan pages to take them down NOW before I take a legal action.”

The actress claims to take legal action if the social media pages fail to comply with her request.

Humaima Maliks IPPA Look

A few weeks ago, many celebrities flew to Instanbul to celebrate the IPPA Awards. The night of the award show was nothing less than memorable as different stars showed up with their best foot forward. Humaima Malik, along with her mother and brother, was also in attendance at the award show. However, what caught the netizen’s eyes was the dress the actress was seen wearing at the ceremony.

As soon as the pictures went viral on social media, the netizens raised some eyebrows over her outfit. While the actress was dolled up in a pastel green tulle dress, her low-cut neckline and bare shoulders made people question her. The actress also posted some pictures on her social media, looking stunning in the bejeweled number.

Take a look at the pictures.

Illegal Properties In Karachi – Who Is Suffering?

By

Nov 17, 2021

The economic hub of Karachi is a melting pot where people from all over Pakistan come to settle in hopes of a better career and consequently, a better life. But as this population grows, so does the need for more infrastructure to support them. This is why you see the high rise, low-rise, bungalows, goth, literally every type of infrastructure on the horizon. These sudden constructions; are all of them authorized though? If not, who in Karachi, is really suffering thanks to the illegal properties?

Case of illegal properties in Karachi

The famous cases include the Pavilion’s End Club and now, Nasla Tower. It was revealed to the public that these dwellings have been made on illegal lands. As for the Pavilions End Club, it demolition meant people being kicked out of jobs, but with Nasla tower, it meant that people will be out on the streets.

As the conversation sparked about these illegal constructions, new revelations were made. According to these revelations, there were numerous other old buildings that have existed for such a long time that one would not even imagine them to be illegal.

Since now people are finally taking action against the illegal buildings, the old ones will be on the radar as well. This is indeed good because, with those establishments, the upkeep of the city was getting hindered. Or at least, it is one of the reasons. Regardless, the point to consider now is, “What about the people living in these buildings?

Who is suffering?

They bought the houses they live in to become proud owners of properties in the expensive Karachi. Some of them poured in all of their savings, while others took loans from banks. The developers took that money once the project was completed and left the arena. They profited a hundred percent from the project that started because of them. And when the court passes the order of demolition, the residents are promised a certain amount which is not remotely near the price they paid to buy the property in the first place. Almost 50 or more than 50 percent of their money is irrecoverable and the compensation they get is not enough to get them decent accommodation at least in this city.

It is clear, who is suffering but the question that emerges is, why is it that when the establishment is fully-constructed with all of its portions sold out that the authorities take notice? Why is it not that when the builders start construction to woo potential customers that the authorities do not see the bricks being laid? Why is it the residents putting up protests to not be kicked out and not the developers hoping to make profits? And why is it that even after the authorities getting active, every other day we hear about even more illegal properties in Karachi appearing?

7 Things Brands Can Do To Help Fight Climate Change

7 Things Brands Can Do To Help Fight Climate Change — Image Source: HBS Digital Initiative

Climate change is no longer a far-off idea that one can limit to just science journals. It’s horrifyingly real and its effects will soon change the way we see the world. While we can easily criticise governments for not doing their best to slow down the process, we also need to start taking responsibility. Here are all the changes you can make in your life to mitigate the climate change process.

1. Shift To Biodegradable Materials

Using plastic is a big no of course. Plastic doesn’t decompose and litter the seas and grounds, acting as an obstacle to the normal cycles of decomposition. Shift to paper products or those types of materials that are biodegradable.

2. Invest In Solar Energy

Investing in solar energy may seem difficult but it’s worth it in the long run. Renewable energy is the future and the earlier we shift to them the better it can be.

3. Stop Using Toxic Chemicals

One of the best examples of toxic chemicals that are a huge part of brands’ life? Spray paints! Ditch them now because they contain CFCs that contain CO2 and result in more heat being trapped. Opt for alternatives to let your artist out.

4. Buy Better Bulbs

Many bulbs used by brands are the cheapest options available and that is understandable provided how many they need. However, using better bulbs that don’t contribute to the degradation of the environment is important!

5. Reduce Water Waste

Make sure you don’t let taps run irresponsibly while your factories work! Wasting water will make us run out of water supplies and make us rely on saltwater, purified, which will trigger other harmful processes. The result? The climate change process will speed up.

6. Reduce Consumption of Meat

Reducing consumption of meat is important because the more beef burgers you have, the more ground is required for their grazing. Cows are huge sources of methane gas in the atmosphere which adds to the climate change process’ pace. Creating campaigns that make people aware of this would be of immense value!

7. Plant Trees

The best thing we can do is plant a tree wherever we can. Encouraging this habit in the corporate sector will make give us a better future. Plant more trees on your site and encourage fellow brands to do the same!

Hira Mani Gets Heavily Trolled For Singing At A Noori Concert

Hira Mani is one of the most prominent actresses of the Pakistani industry at the moment. She’s fearless and has a bubbly personality that keeps making fans out of everyone who comes across her. However, fearlessness can often be a bad thing, as it was just now! Mani tried her hand at singing and let’s just say she shouldn’t have.

What Happened?

Hira Mani was present at a Noori concert and must be jamming to all the singer’s amazing songs just like the rest of the visitors. However, for reasons unknown, the actress took the stage and the mic and started her own concert! She started singing Neend Na Aaye whilst standing next to the legendary singer himself and obviously, it was a recipe for disaster.

Watch the video here!

What Do People Think?

People are more than unhappy with the singer’s skills— clearly, she’s cut out for acting, not singing! Not only was Hira Mani practically just yelling the lyrics, but she also had no sense of tune. Why must we do that to a song as precious as Neend Na Aye? Netizens kept lamenting at how the show could’ve become a hit if instead of Hira Mani they had gone on the stage. Have a look at the comments from people:

There’s more:

Noori’s Concerts

Noori’s concerts are another experience altogether. There’s nothing like them truly if you’re in love with their songs. Songs like Manwa Re and Mere Dost tend to transport you to another world where it’s just your childhood memories with friends, a whole lot of happiness, and nothing else. The fervour of the crowd and the passion is something one rarely finds somewhere else.

Hence, it is more than understandable that fans were upset with this intrusion.

Should Hira Mani Be More Careful?

Sure, she has a lot of fans and also granted that she’s more famous than many celebrities in the industry. But does that mean she should do everything that comes to mind? It can be taken as a light-hearted moment where Mani just wanted to sing for the fun of it. On the other hand, it can also be taken as a classic case of over-confidence that results in a lot of trolling as many have said.

What do you think this is?
