Nadir Ali is making headlines once again for his problematic statement and netizens are furious over his insensitive comments.
Nadir Ali Podcast
The host recently welcomed Sunita Marshall in the latest episode of his podcast show. The Pakistani model and actress who has been serving in the industry for decades now is no stranger to her fans. The actress is always known for keeping her poise and grace, however, after her recent interview the fans are applauding her even more for her mature and calm personality.
In a recent interview hosted by Nadir Ali, the YouTuber asked the actress if she has plans to convert to Islam. Sunita who has been a practicing Christian married Hassan Ahmed and share two kids who have been practicing Islam. While asking about her inlaws and their religious beliefs Nadir chose to cross the boundaries and asked all the wrong questions.
While asking her if she has any plans to convert, the host asked if she has any pressure from her in-laws.
“You are a Christian and your husband and Kids are Muslim. What are your plans?” Asked Nadir.
“Me? I have no plans of converting as of now. My husband Hassan and his family never pressurized me. I often get such comments on Instagram but I don’t care about them.”
Nadir didn’t stop there and went one step ahead ‘while asking her that her entire family is Muslim and she must have some sort of pressure from them to convert.’
Sunita, then corrected the host and informed him that it was her inlaws who are practicing Muslims and they are very good with her. Meanwhile, nobody has asked her to convert as of yet.
While talking about her kids the actress mentioned,
“Before I got married, it was decided right away that when we have kids, they will follow Islam. I live with my in-laws and they can teach them better about Islam. I never wanted to hang my kids in the middle by waiting for them to grow up and then decide which path to follow.”
“There’s this trend nowadays that parents leave it to their kids so they can decide what religion to follow.” She added.
“I wanted my kids to stay in one direction, they offer prayers, they fast and they follow Islam wholeheartedly. That’s how I think one must follow a religion.”
Nadir Ali Receives Backlash From Audience
Nadir on the other hand received severe backlash from the netizens over his insensitive remarks. While fans were applauding the actress for being calm and collected throughout the interview, netizens demanded that such pranksters must not host podcasts as they take away the whole essence of it.

In November, Toyota introduced its latest addition to the Prius lineup: the 2023 Prius Prime. This model sets itself apart by incorporating a built-in solar panel, showcasing Toyota’s commitment to eco-friendly hybrid vehicles. The Prius Prime combines the advantages of a fully battery-powered mode and a hybrid mode with enhanced performance.
Continuing the Legacy of Efficiency
Toyota’s press release highlights the Prius Prime as part of the ongoing development of efficient, low-air pollution hybrid vehicles that originated with the 2009 Prius Plug-In. This latest model upholds the legacy of its predecessors, offering exceptional fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.

Solar Panel Benefits
While hybrid vehicles already save owners money through lower fuel consumption, the addition of a solar panel brings further advantages for Prius Prime drivers. Toyota explains that the panel is utilized to power accessories such as the car’s air conditioning system, thus reducing the load on the primary battery. This feature optimizes energy usage and enhances overall efficiency.
Moreover, the Prius Prime boasts a larger lithium-ion battery, resulting in an extended range of over 50% in electric mode compared to previous models. The reported range of 25 miles has now been improved to approximately 50 miles. This advancement enables drivers to rely more on electric power, reducing their dependence on fossil fuels.
Sleek and Innovative Design
The solar panel itself is seamlessly integrated into the car’s roof, maintaining the Prius Prime’s sleek appearance without any visible wires or electrodes. Toyota also offers an alternative roof design composed of solar glass. The combination of functionality and aesthetics underscores the company’s commitment to innovation in sustainable vehicle design.
Growing Solar Car Industry
Solar-powered cars are gaining traction in the market, with multiple companies introducing their own models. A recent report suggests that the solar car industry will be valued at over $535 million by 2030. The ability to generate power independently through a solar panel significantly reduces fuel and electricity expenses, making these vehicles more affordable for budget-conscious drivers.
Environmental Impact
As the availability and affordability of electric cars, including solar-powered vehicles, increase, the environmental benefits become more evident. Gas-powered cars emit heat-trapping gases like carbon dioxide, contributing to global warming. The transition to electric cars, including hybrids with solar panels, reduces these emissions, helping to mitigate climate change.

Toyota acknowledges the positive impact of the Prius Prime, stating in its press release, “This plug-in hybrid model has continued to offer customers the flexibility of getting around town on zero-emission battery power or hybrid mode for fuel-efficient road tripping.” The company further emphasizes that the Prius Prime enhances the overall experience with improved performance and advanced technology.
The introduction of the 2023 Prius Prime by Toyota showcases the incorporation of a solar panel into its hybrid vehicles, further enhancing their efficiency and environmental friendliness. The Prius Prime continues the tradition of the Prius lineup by providing exceptional fuel economy and reducing emissions. With its extended electric range and sleek design, the Prius Prime represents a notable step forward in sustainable transportation, offering both cost savings and environmental benefits.

Pilgrims are advised to stay away from designated routes and not to impede the traffic of people.
Respecting Privacy of Fellow Worshipers
The guidelines also emphasize the need to respect the privacy of others. Pilgrims are urged to exercise discretion when taking photographs and to refrain from capturing images that may infringe upon the personal space of fellow worshipers. Respecting privacy promotes a sense of respect and harmony among the pilgrims.
As the Hajj season progresses, the number of pilgrims arriving in Saudi Arabia continues to rise. Saudi authorities have reported that over 700,000 pilgrims have already arrived in Madinah, with thousands more expected in the coming days. The Prince Muhammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Madinah has witnessed a significant influx of pilgrims, with 29,090 arrivals reported in a single day. Furthermore, 556,953 worshipers have already departed for Makkah after completing their stay in Madinah Munawwarah.

Om Raut’s film ‘Adipurush’ hit the box office on 16th June 2023, with a star-studded cast including Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan. Despite a reported opening day collection of over 50 crores, the film has failed to receive a favorable response from the audience. Social media has now become a breeding ground for trolls targeting the film’s cast and their appearances.
Here have a look at the trailer if you don’t already know about it.
Netizens are questioning the film’s massive budget, estimated to be around 600 crores. The VFX alone accounted for 100 crores, while an additional 10 crores were allocated for promotions and miscellaneous expenses. Casting expenses ranged between 200 to 300 crores, with Prabhas allegedly charging a staggering fee of 150 crores for his role. Kriti Sanon’s fee amounted to 3 crores, while Saif Ali Khan received 12 crores, according to speculative reports.
Despite its impressive box office performance during its opening weekend, the film has faced severe criticism on social media platforms. Netizens have expressed their discontent with the portrayal of characters from the Ramayana epic in the film, specifically targeting the dialogues and Saif Ali Khan’s appearance as the antagonist, Lankesh. The film’s adaptation of the Ramayana story has drawn mixed reactions and sparked intense online debates.

Indian fans themselves are hating and bashing their own film with the main question being of the 600 crore budget and where and how was it used because apparently, the utilization was not seen anywhere. The graphics and animation and everything are just extremely poor. Considering, the era of AI, the film could’ve done better if made on Midjourney. Here’s what the public has to say.
A Person beaten by #Prabhas fans for criticising Manipulated movie On Bhagwan Ram '#AdiPurush' and comparing Adi Purush's VFX to Play Station graphics. pic.twitter.com/B1U5zhnp3c
Its shocking how terrible the VFX are in #Adipurush. In today’s time, what is the justification for such a shoddy job? Om Raut previously directed Tanhaji which was a better movie, but also had questionable graphics.
Really puzzling why they din’t do a better job. Maybe if they…
As the controversy continues to unfold, ‘Adipurush’ remains a topic of widespread discussion, with passionate opinions and divergent viewpoints shaping the discourse surrounding the film.

Today, the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee is scheduled to sit in Karachi for the purpose of sighting the Zilhaj moon. This important meeting will be attended by representatives from the Ministry of Religious Affairs, the Pakistan Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO), the Department of Meteorology, and the Ministry of Science and Technology. Chaired by Abdul Khabeer Azad, a respected scholar, the committee will discuss and assess the moon sighting reports. Simultaneously, zonal committees in cities like Islamabad, Lahore, and Peshawar will also hold meetings on the same day.

Following the traditional protocol, the Ministry of Religious Affairs will issue an official notification after the committee’s decision is made. It is worth noting that the Committee meets on the 29th day of each lunar month and announces the sighting of the moon accordingly.
Zil Hajj, also known as Dhu al-Hijjah, holds significant importance in the Islamic calendar. It is the twelfth and final month, marking the start of the Hajj pilgrimage, one of the five pillars of Islam. The sighting of the Zilhaj moon plays an important role in determining the beginning of this sacred month. The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, along with zonal committees, gather to observe the moon and confirm its sighting.
This sighting holds great significance as it determines the start of various religious observances and rituals, including the days of Hajj, the Day of Arafah, Eid al-Adha, and the offering of sacrificial animals. The moon sighting process ensures uniformity and unity within the Muslim community, allowing individuals to observe and celebrate these important religious events together.

Turning off your air conditioning (AC) at night may seem counterintuitive, especially during the sweltering summer months. After all, a cool room is believed to be the ideal sleeping environment, and running the AC in the evening is often more cost-effective. However, experts are now highlighting the benefits of turning off your AC at night, citing improved sleep quality and energy savings as compelling reasons to do so.
Promotes Better Sleep
Maintaining a cool and comfortable bedroom environment is essential for a good night’s sleep. However, excessively low temperatures caused by air conditioning can actually disrupt sleep quality and overall restfulness. Alvin Pullins, a home improvement and maintenance specialist, explains that extremely cold rooms can lead to shivering and discomfort during the night, negatively impacting sleep. Additionally, AC units and electric fans circulate air, but they also circulate dust mites, pollen, and other allergens, which can trigger allergies and congestion, further disturbing sleep. By turning off the AC at night, you can create a more moderate and natural sleeping environment that promotes better sleep and reduces the risk of allergies.

Alleviates Aches and Pains
Turning off the AC can also alleviate aches and pains. Concentrated cool air from the AC or a fan can cause muscles to tense up, potentially leading to discomfort and stiffness. If you already experience joint or muscle pain, refraining from using strong AC or directing a fan towards your body during sleep can provide relief. It’s important to consult a doctor to address any underlying issues and ensure your bed setup, including the mattress and pillow, adequately supports your body.
Saves Money
Apart from the sleep and comfort benefits, turning off your AC at night can result in cost savings. AC units are known to consume significant amounts of energy, and reducing their usage during non-essential hours can lead to noticeable savings over time. Energy providers often offer lower rates during the night, making it an ideal time to conserve energy and cut down on utility bills. By implementing this practice, you not only save money but also extend the longevity and optimize the efficiency of your heating and cooling equipment.

Alternative Cooling Solutions
If you’re concerned about staying cool without relying on the AC, there are alternative solutions. Investing in cooling bed products can help regulate your body temperature and promote better sleep. Cooling mattresses, mattress protectors, and breathable bed sheets made from materials like bamboo can provide a cooler sleep surface and enhance comfort. These products are designed to be naturally temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking, ensuring a sweat-free sleep experience.
Finding the Right Balance
While turning off your AC at night offers several benefits, it’s important to note that frequently switching the AC on and off can strain the unit and contribute to premature wear and tear. It’s best to strike a balance and find the optimal times to use your AC for both comfort and energy efficiency. As Alvin Pullins suggests, when outdoor temperatures are lower than your desired indoor temperature, natural ventilation becomes a viable option.
Turning off your AC at night can lead to improved sleep quality, alleviate aches and pains, and result in energy savings. By implementing alternative cooling solutions and using cooling bed products, you can maintain a comfortable sleep environment without relying solely on air conditioning. Finding the right balance between comfort and energy efficiency will ensure a restful night’s sleep while minimizing costs and environmental impact.

Naimal Khawar, the wife of Hamza Ali Abbasi and a very popular Pakistani actress and model, has become the center of social media criticism due to accusations of undergoing plastic surgery this weekend. Netizens started commenting on her Instagram photos, pointing out differences in her appearance and facial features, saying that she had facial procedures done such as rhinoplasty and lip fillers. Here have a look.
Comparisons were immediately drawn between Naimal and Pakistani model Sara Loren, also known as Pakistani Mona Liza. Many users even expressed disappointment, claiming that the actress had “ruined her beauty” by getting plastic surgery and lip fillers. Some even speculated that Naimal’s sister-in-law, Dr. Fazeela Abbasi who is a renowned dermatologist and skin specialist, might have performed the surgery.

However, there were also fans and other people who criticized haters to respect Naimal’s personal choices and stay out of the matter. In response to one user’s supportive comment, Naimal even thanked them and expressed her wish for more kindness on social media. Like every other celebrity, she also just wanted to share her happiness online without being judged.
Amid the backlash, Naimal’s sister, Fiza Khawar also stepped in to defend her for the relentless hate she was getting. Fiza bashed the toxic and hateful comments made by other women, emphasizing that being a public figure does not justify such cruelty. She told everyone to reflect on the type of person they were and then call someone out for something else and practice kindness for the benefit of their souls.
Here’s what the general public had to say to her after facial changes, although some people also defended her. Here have a look at some of the tweets.

Update: Layers bakery in Islamabad has been sealed by the IFA team following a crackdown for violations. The inspection uncovered expired food, poor hygiene practices, and the absence of mandatory regulatory markings. The IFA took decisive action to address these issues and ensure public health and safety. This incident highlights the importance of adhering to food safety regulations and maintaining high standards in the industry.
— Islamabad Food Authority (@ifaislamabad) June 18, 2023
Layers Bakeshop is one of the most popular bakeries and cake places in Pakistan. Their customers are very loyal to them because their taste and cakes are simply unmatchable. But what happens if you’re eating a cake from your favorite cake place and you find a whole, full, and complete lizard in it? Definitely not the prettiest sight or the yummiest one either if you eat it. This is what happened with Layers. A video recently started to go viral of people finding a lizard in their cake from Layers Bakeshop in Faisalabad.
The lizard was found dead in the cake and the people eating the cake immediately whipped out their phone to record the nasty incident. They even poked and fidgeted with the lizard to make sure it was a lizard and it was dead.
An Attempt At Defamation?
After the video went viral, Layers obviously went through a ton of backlash by triggered netizens which was expected. The video made headlines and Layers had almost said bye to their future when some people started speculating that maybe this was planted and just an attempt to defame Layers.
Here, have a look at this video by influencer Adnan Zafar who basically sums up everyone’s argument.
Ken Doll aka Adnan Zafar argued that this was just a dirty move by some competitors. He based this explanation on the fact that if a lizard had fallen into the cake or the batter, after being baked at such high temperatures as 250 degrees centigrade, it would not look the way it did. According to him, it was still “soft” and “fresh” indicating that it had been put in afterward or else it would’ve looked “cooked”.
He also claimed that he had been working in the hospitality industry for the last 11 years and that he was talking logically and factually which further strengthened the argument of the other people who were of the same opinion. Later on, Layers also came out with an official statement. Here have a look.
Fathers nowadays are very different from the classic caricature; they spend nearly three times as much time raising their children as they did in 1965, and 94% of them feel that being a father is an important part of who they are. While the definition of fatherhood remains the same, the role father figures have played in our lives is still undoubtedly undervalued. This Father’s Day brands are celebrating fathers with their unique and thought-provoking campaigns.
Let’s go through a few of them.
1. Suzuki Pakistan
Name a better love story than a father teaching their kid how to drive. You certainly cannot! The thrill of sitting alongside your father for your first driving lesson is an uncanny experience. The uncertainty of the situation and the highs and lows of the situation – Suzuki is reminding us of the days when we sneak out with the car which is the dearest to our father’s heart.
Nailing the fathers Day campaign with an iconic dialogue of the Bachan film, a dialogue our fathers must have uttered in humor at least once in their lives because who else has grown up binging on the Big B’s movies other than our parents?
The things that our fathers teach us throughout their lives, we tend to take them for granted very often. Dawlance, in its Father’s Day campaign, is shedding light on how we tend to overlook our father’s perspective only to find ourselves in the same spot later in life.
KFC Pakistan asked its customer to pay tribute to their fathers by re-creating old photos. While bringing on nostalgia and childhood memories, the brand offered meals and goodies to the winners for its Father’s Day campaign.
How many times our moms have turned us down on something? Meanwhile, our fathers tend to become our life saviors in those pivotal moments and McDonald’s in its Father’s Day campaign is reminding us of the time we tend to go straight to our fathers for things our moms won’t approve of.
Father’s Day is celebrated worldwide and it’s no surprise that some of the biggest brands in the world also cater to the importance of showing dads as the notable figures that deserve all the love.
Here are some of the most iconic father’s Day campaigns of all time.
1. Dove
This advertisement is a collection of men learning they will become fathers through user-generated films. Some are speechless from shock, others can’t believe the good news, and all of them are overjoyed. The commercial feels raw and pure because it features real men reacting in real ways.
2. HP
This commercial is yet another tearjerker, and it works so well because it addresses a problem that many parents face: the feeling that their efforts are often overlooked and undervalued. The Ad reminds us to be more vocal about our love for our parents and show them what they mean to us.
3. The Mentoring Project: #DontBuyTheTie
The Mentoring Project is a nonprofit organization that matches at-risk children with positive role models, many of whom are fatherless. The organization’s yearly #DontBuyTheTie campaign invites people to honor their fathers by making a donation to the organization rather than purchasing the customary presents which are meaningful, to say the least.
4. Google – Dear Sophie
In this 2011 Google advertisement, a father creates a “dear. Sophie.lee” Gmail address and emails it with significant life events, such as a snapshot of her birth, short remarks on parenting, a video of her skiing, etc. At the conclusion, you find out that even though he has been sending these messages to the account for years, his daughter is unaware that it even exists.

The Cambridge Assessment International Examination (CAIE) has now provided two options for candidates affected by the exam cancellations on May 10, 11, and 12 this year. The exams were initially canceled because of the political turmoil caused in different parts of countries.

Options
The first option involves the British Council requesting special consideration from Cambridge on behalf of all affected candidates. Previously, it had been announced that the exam scheduled for May 11 has been canceled and will not be rescheduled. Instead, candidates will be awarded average grades for the affected paper. This decision would undoubtedly have a major impact on the academic plans of those affected, raising questions about how this will affect their future prospects. The second option allows candidates to withdraw from the subjects where exams were canceled and receive a refund if they decide not to avail themselves of the special consideration.
Details
According to the CIE, candidates can choose to withdraw their entry for subjects in the June 2023 series, excluding those affected by the May 10, 11, and 12 exam cancellations. If a candidate wishes to withdraw, they must adhere to Cambridge International’s withdrawal policy for 2023 and submit a withdrawal request, as stated in the CIE’s statement. It is important to note that once a withdrawal request is submitted, the candidate cannot later request the corresponding components to be marked. The British Council will handle all withdrawal requests in accordance with the provided policy.
Notice for Schools
Candidates and schools are also advised to consider paragraphs 3, 2, and 10 of the Cambridge Handbook 2023, which states that coursework submitted in a previous exam series cannot be reused. Therefore, candidates who withdraw their entry in the June 2023 series and re-enter in a later series will need to create new coursework for their new entry.
Notice for A Levels
However, the CIE recommends withdrawal and refund for the following reasons
For XIC & A2 (outgoing classes), schools will be unable to support students’ exam preparation for subjects beyond June 2023.
For students enrolled in the BCP program, it will cause disruption in the middle of the academic session of the next class level. For example, for Al students taking XIC exams in Oct/Nov 2021.
Opting for withdrawal for XC & AS Level exams will lead to disruption in the middle of the academic year of the next class level where the exam is taken.A2 students who withdraw from May/June 2023 will not have their AS grades carried forward and will need to sit their composite exams in Oct/Nov 2023.Uzma Yusuf, director of Cambridge Pakistan, informed The News that only two A-level papers, Mathematics, and History, will be retaken on June 21 canceled papers.
