Samosas and pakoras are the main highlights at Iftar. Be it aaloo samosa, qeema samosa, or chicken samosa; they seem to be delicious with any filling; in any form! Also, one of the best things about samosas is that you can have them all year round!

But when you go overboard with your Iftar menu, you tend to have some leftover samosas, pakoras & rolls, and when you have leftover fried items, they turn soggy, and you just can’t eat them again. So, what do you do? You just fashion them into delicious items because you can’t just toss them in the bin. (Food should not be wasted)

Here are a few samosa leftover hacks! Trust me; you’re going to love these!

1.  Samosa Chaat 

Crush the samosa and layer your plate with the crispy samosa chunks! Once you do that, you’d want to add so much more to it! When you’re creating your heavenly dish of Samosa Chaat, remember “more is less.” *winks*

2. Samosa Sandwich


Use your leftover samosa as filling for crunch, crispy toast sandwiches. I kid you not, this sandwich is going to be your most-loved snack item!

3. Samosa Bhel


If you don’t know what bhel is, then you’ve been living under a rock all your life! You need to try this chatpati samosa bhel recipe at home, and you’re going to fall in love with it!

4. Samosa Kadhi Chaat

Netizens Can’t Stop Praising Ushna Shah’s Latest Picture

Netizens Can't Stop Praising Ushna Shah's Latest Picture

What women should and should not wear has been the debate of the century. In our society, a piece of clothing tends to make or break your character. A strong, opinionated society always seems to find a way to talk about someone else’s apparel choice. However, sometimes we tend to see a different perspective or response from the public. Recently, the comments section of Ushna Shah’s latest picture is full of loving and caring messages and comments, and we can’t help but wonder. Is this world finally a better place?

Ushna Shah’s Latest Picture On Instagram 

Recently, Ushna shah posted a picture from Makkah where she was wearing an Abaya with a Hijab. The picture is captured while performing the Umrah. In the caption, Ushna prays for our society as a whole to be more kind, to be more empathetic, and to be less judgemental.

Response from the Netizen’s 

Ushna Shah’s latest picture seemed to get a very positive response from the netizens. Her comment section is filled with all the lovely dua’s and wishes for her. However, this makes us wonder if the situation would be the same if she had posted a different picture of herself.

This is the kind of response everyone should be getting on social media. Criticizing and bashing someone be it celebrities or random people should not be our priority as a nation. We rise by lifting each other up and posting nasty comments and criticizing someone’s personality does not make us any better.

As she mentioned in her caption, we as a nation should find more reasons to be empathetic, to be less judgemental, to be able to accept others for who they are, and to be kind enough to humanity.

Lassi Memes Take Over Twitter During The First Sehri

Lassi memes
Image Source: IndiaMart

When it’s the first day of Ramadan, and you are fasting, instead of thinking about food or drinks, you are supposed to be thinking of doing good. But let’s be honest, when you are preparing sehri, you want to overload yourself with food so you won’t be hungry through the day. But what is it in sehri that a majority population takes? This question is answered when you come across lassi memes trending on Twitter.

Lassi – the ultimate sehri drink

Lassi, in fact, is not even a drink; it is a lifestyle. And it is only a minority that does not like or drink it (a minority I personally fail to understand).

Anyway, once you pinch the lassi fans and the debate on it starts, it is impossible to regulate it. So harsh words were used.

In the end, it is the lassi memes that you want to look at which win you over. But they are no fun if they do not involve chai, are they? Because throughout the year, chai remains your best friend. However, as soon as it’s sehri time, you don’t want something to wake you up; you need something to put you to deep sleep to shorten the time span for the Roza to a somewhat degree.

And it’s not entirely unimaginable that people would fight over lassi because, as a lassi lover, I can attest to it. No matter how close you are to me, if you take my lassi, there will be hell to pay.

A meme starts trending, and it does not have Baburao featured is just not possible. What’s even more interesting is that it is proof that one can hear pictures.

“Bilkul ricks nahi lene ka.”

When a meme describes how lassi sends you in a zone.

With so many renditions of lassi in the market, it is just not possible for you to not like at least one of them. I mean, aside from namkeen and meethi lassi, there is also mango lassi and pakola lassi.

But the meme that stings is the one that is true. You want to overload yourself with lassi when your kidneys can’t take it, and you have to go to the loo after every 30 seconds.

Even after that, lassi will always be the ultimate drink for when it’s time for sehri.

Shahroz Sabzwari Receives Major Backlash On His Latest Video

Shahroz Sabzwari’s latest video may be intriguing but it has only resulted in a backlash! What’s the ruckus about?

Sneak Peaks from Sets

We don’t know whether it was on the set of Nand or another up-and-coming project of the actor, but his latest video has people talking. Captured in the video is a Shahroz Sabzwari people with a faint heart can not take in.

He’s in the make-up for what seems like someone who has survived a car crash. With blood dripping all over his face, he has also got several cuts stretched across his head.

The Gory Look:

A candid video or a publicity stunt? You decide.

The Reactions!

It is still unclear what the motive of the people who posted this video was. The guy looks disturbing and he’s smoking— why would anyone appreciate this?

It appears netizens received the video in the same spirit when they showered it with nothing but criticism.

Smoking Is Not Cool

Shahroz Sabzwari is being heavily criticised for promoting smoking in the video. Since he has never shared this side of his on social media, why do it now? Smoking has not suddenly become cool.

For Sabzwari to be putting videos out like this is also dangerous for other reasons. He has a lot of fans most of whom are young people. Seeing their celebrity idol smoking is bound to generate ideas in their heads. Indirect influence is a huge factor in many young people turning towards smoking.

Smoking Kills

Smoking is universally accepted to be the worst self-destructive behaviour one can engage in. Starting young is especially worse because it creates a decades-long impact on your lungs. The damage is irreparable.

Especially nowadays when a virus impedes our lives, why can’t celebrities be more responsible? Muneeb Butt was criticised for the very same reason on his trip to Turkey!

Can Sabzwari Redeem Himself?

Ever since Sabzwari pulled the stunt of announcing his union with Sadaf Kanwal, he has been added to the netizen’s bad books. Everything he does is received with a pinch of salt. Moreover, his reaction with his very own fans after the fiasco has turned people against him.

This begs the question, will he ever be able to redeem himself? Even under this video, there are several comments targeting Sadaf Kanwal and Syra Yousuf. It appears that Sabzwari has made his bed, now he must lie in it.

Swyft: Revolutionizing The Logistics Industry

Swyft

Press Release: Pakistan’s leading tech-based courier company, Swyft Logistics, has set astonishing new benchmarks and revolutionized the logistics industry over the past one year; thus, resulting in the transformation of last-mile solutions being offered in the industry.

Expanding the horizon of this very mindset, Swyft is eager to bring optimum human resource from across the globe, thereby enhancing the eco-system which revolves around the idea of “closing the gap” between E and Now commerce.

The management of Swyft Logistics is keen to further optimize the tech and logistics industry within Pakistan by welcoming stalwarts from across the globe. This will not only bring in expertise but also a culture that will further enhance the learning curve that the company aspires to. Keeping in view the current scenario of COVID-19, the idea is to provide lucrative job opportunities, competitive with the global job market.

Muhammad Uns, CEO Swyft Logistics commented, “The purpose of taking this initiative and inviting tech experts to be a part of Swyft from across the globe is to nurture the growth of E-commerce and logistics in Pakistan. We believe that there is serious room for improvement in the logistics industry, and to make it technologically dynamic. Pakistani tech experts from across the world can play a major role whilst enhancing the benchmarks already set by Swyft.”

Swyft is hence looking to engage experts for various tech roles, namely; Chief Technical Officer and Chief Product Officer to spearhead its tech team and encourage expats to serve for the greater good of e-commerce and logistics in Pakistan. This being said, this will potentially be the most lucrative hiring for these roles in Pakistan with remunerations at par with those being offered at Silicon Valley and various tech epicenters across the world.

With a workforce that has defined new standards in the industry, the ethos of Swyft revolves around engaging great minds to further catalyze its already record-breaking growth and paving the way for Swyft’s national footprint.

Can Covid Vaccine Break Your Fast In Ramadan?

Ramadan is the month where the majority of Muslims fast. And considering it is the time of pandemic where to return to everyday life, we need to interject the vaccine. However, people are worried if they can do so during fast. If it is not allowed, this will push the covid vaccine delivery process one month back.

The covid vaccine in Ramadan

In Pakistan, vaccine delivery had been conducted for healthcare workers and senior citizens. The process is still ongoing, and it is being said that soon it will be open for everyone regardless of their ages. But as we are inclined towards following whatever we hear from unverified sources, it is quite possible that a random Whatsapp message labeling the vaccine non-consumable during fast would be enough to stop us from receiving it.

And so here we are, to diffuse your doubts about the vaccine.

Islamic scholars have rallied around the idea that everyone can take the vaccine between sehri and iftar; it will not hurt your fast.

These famous scholars include Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Abdulaziz Al Sheikh, Grand Mufti of Dubai, Shaikh Dr. Ahmad bin Abdul Aziz Al Haddad, Grand Mufti of Lebanon, Sheikh Abdul-Latif Derian, among others.

The rulings and justifications they provided were:

  1. “The COVID-19 vaccine does not invalidate the fast of a fasting person because it is not considered as food and drink. The vaccine is administered intramuscularly, so it does not invalidate the fast.”
  2. “The COVID-19 vaccine does not break any fast because it is taken intramuscularly, so it is permissible for the fasting person to take the vaccine.”
  3. “The COVID-19 vaccine will not invalidate the fast because it has no nutritional value and it is injected into the muscle.”
  4. “There is no nutritious vitamin or food substance in any vaccine, including the COVID-19 vaccine. Injecting such a thing into the body does not break the fast.”

So you can, with complete ease, take the vaccine.

A Variant Comparison – Which Toyota Corolla Cross Variant To Buy?

variants and their differences of cross suv
Image Source: electricvehicleweb.in

Among the many successes of Toyota, Corolla is a prime one. It is one of the most robust cars ever made and you can see them in bulk everywhere. No matter which city it is, Corolla is a car driven on a massive scale! Now, Toyota has released an all-new Corolla Cross. It is said to rock and shock the market. Today, we perform a comparison between the variants of the cross itself.

Corolla Cross

As far as we are aware, Corolla cross is currently available in three variants,

  • Premium
  • Smart
  • Low (Base)

On April 10th, 2021, Toyota Indus Motor officially launched this vehicle. It entered into the automobile industry with such zeal and a bang that everyone was taken aback. Despite some people being skeptical at first, the vehicle has managed to gather quite a lot of praise till now. If we take a look at the three variants under a microscope, we might come across some noticeable differences.

The Interior

If we look at the interior, all three variants have electronic power steering. As opposed to the Low variant, the premium and base also have cruise control. Similarly, where the first two variants have a touch screen, the third one has an audio system. So if you are looking to go a bit old school on the infotainment, then the low variant is for you.

If we take a look at the seating, the premium and smart variants have electric-powered 6-way driver’s seat. In the low version, all the seats are manually adjustable. While the comfort factor does not differ by a lot, there is a more premium feel in the higher versions. Also, the premium has a sunroof and leather seats whereas the other ones have fabric ones.

Under The Hood

There are not a lot of differences in engine power when it comes to the three Corolla cross variants. All come fitted with a 1800cc engine with CVT transmission. Additionally, the engine provides a combined horsepower of 168hp and a combined torque of 305Nm.

Safety Factors

One of the most talked-about things about the vehicle is the safety factor. The premium and smart variants have a total of seven airbags, one for each passenger. On the other hand, the low variant has just the standard two airbags. All three variants have ABS, Brake Assist, and EBD as well as back parking sensors. The premium and smart Corolla cross also have front parking sensors!

Price Bracket

The Premium variant is currently available at Rs.85 Lac whereas the smart variant costs Rs.82 Lac. If we look at the low variant, it costs about Rs.77 Lac. There is a considerable gap between the prices of all three. As we have seen, there is also a difference in the features of all three.

In the end, it all boils down to the user preference and their budget. If you are going for such an investment for this vehicle, then we recommend you to make a highly calculated decision.

Talhah Yunus

PSL 2021’s official anthem attracted quite a lot of attention this year for featuring Nassebo Lal and her pronunciation of some English words. But alongside her, there were some other performers as well. Those included Aima Baig and Young Stunners. Young Stunners is composed of Talhah Yunus and Talha Anjum.

The two Talhas are pretty amazing in their craft, and you can see that in not just the PSL song but also the recent song with Asim Azhar. But today we have some interesting news regarding one of the Talhas. Talhah Yunus has a doppelganger, a look-alike, and the similarity is uncanny.

But first, take a look at this singer/rapper:

Now, look at this person:

Sameet Alam Khan, a fitness trainer.

Doppelganger Alert!

One is a singer while the other is a fitness trainer.

With the trainer having had a haircut in his recent Insta pictures, the resemblance has increased manifolds.

Of course, with Sameet being a fitness trainer, the body speaks of it. And so, in the picture below, you will see how it is easy to tell them apart, but if you don’t look at that, then according to the face cut, they would almost look like brothers.

Image Source: Brandsynario

Equally talented in their own professions, we wish the two all the best. That said, we wouldn’t mind the two of them in one frame doing the same pose to see if they actually do look like twins or not.

So Talhah and Sameet, if you both come across this, please do grant us this request.

7 Ramadan Meals To Help You Stay In Shape

7 Ramadan Meals To Help You Stay In Shape
image source: https://reviewit.pk/

Ramadan is around the corner, and with that, fasting and new eating schedules too. Ramadan can be the time to cut off non-essential meals and to take better care of health while fasting. However, most of the time, we end up going haywire in Suhoor and Iftar, which tends to have drastic results in the long run.

The excessive consumption of oily and fried food is not only bad for your weight but can create serious long-term health problems. This Ramadan, stay mindful of your eating habits with the help of these Ramadan meals, which are healthy and a treat for your taste buds.

1. Smoothies and Juices

7 Ramadan Meals To Help You Stay In Shape

The right balance of fluids is the ley for Ramadan. Due to fasting, the water consumption is insufficient, leading to dehydration in hot and humid weather. In Ramadan, switch those cold beverages and sodas with healthy blends of food with the right amount of milk and yogurt. This will not only give you nutrition but also keep your body hydrated and fit.

2. Air Fried Items 

Fried items are the main essence of our signature iftars, from fried Rolls to Pakoras and fried snacks. Iftar is basically incomplete without the fried items. However, investing in an air fryer will allow you to indulge in all the snacks without the expense of deep-frying them in oil every day. It will not allow you to have your snacks healthily and cut the frying oil budget.

3. Chickpeas

Chana chaat and fruit chaat is the another key component of Iftars. These ought to be the healthiest options on the iftar menu. A big fruit bowl can give you all the required nutrients for the next day and will provide you an instant boost of energy. Chickpeas high in protein content can help maintain your shape and give all the required energy to complete your daily tasks.

4. Oatmeal

Ditch those oily parathas and have a bowl of oatmeal with your favorite fruit and nuts. Oatmeal is rich in fiber and protein. It can help you maintain your figure while giving you all the required nutrients. The oatmeal fiber helps maintain a healthy gut, whereas, the milk provides proteins to keep you energized all day long.

5. Sandwiches 

Sandwiches for Iftar can be a power-packed meal without the need for frying and cooking in the kitchen. The meat and vegetables can give you all the required nutrients with the tantalizing taste of sauces. Just marinate some meat and cook it on a grill pan. Later, assemble them and have a healthy iftar without putting in a lot of effort into meals.

6. Roasted Fish and Chicken 

7 Ramadan Meals To Help You Stay In Shape

Pairing fish and chicken with vegetables can not only satiate your hunger but also boost nutrients and energy. The protein and other nutrients will give you the right amount of energy along with keeping your weight in check.

7. Skip Carbs For Ramadan Meal Plan

Opting for a meal that is rich in fiber and protein can be your best bet. Avoid options like pasta or baked food as they are rich in carbohydrates and break down easily without providing you any energy. However, do not skip carbs entirely, as they provide you with the right balance of blood sugar, which can help you function while fasting.

With the help of these Ramadan meals, you can not only keep your shape maintained, but they also provide you enough energy to function throughout the entire month without having you worry about your weight.

The much-loved drama by the audience Sabaat gave Mawra Hocane a best friend for life. Their chemistry onscreen was as strong as their bond outside the sets. Now, it’s been a year since Sabaat aired, but the friendship behind the main leads seems to be getting stronger.

Mawra Hocane Receives Qur’an As a Gift

Recently, Mawra Hocane posted a story about holding a ‘Quran.’ The Quran was encased in a red box that had the names of Allah mentioned on the inside. As the post mentioned, the Quran was a gift from her former co-star Ameer Gilani. Mawra captioned the post with “The most beautiful present one could ever give to someone,” and honestly, we couldn’t agree more.

Why Can Quran Be The Best Gift? 

Quran is the complete code of life. A book of guidance that can make our world and the hereafter. The book can help us shine a light on ourselves, help us look at ourselves from within, taking away diseases like doubt, hypocrisy, shirk, deviation, misguidance, envy, anxiety, grief, and greed. The Qur’an heals all of that. Quran brings us faith, wisdom, and the pursuit of and desire for goodness. If we believe in it, the book can bring us eternal peace and freedom to our souls.

From wonderful stories to parables that serve as a guide for us Quran, it can help us get Allah’s mercy, love, and acceptance. So no wonder Quraan is the best book on earth one could benefit from. The book which was given to us in the Holy month of Ramadan is not just a book. It is a guideline. And if followed, it leads us to the righteous path of peace and prosperity.

A Gesture Of Goodwill

Giving Quran as a gift is much more than just a gesture. It is a gesture of goodwill. An effort to make a difference in someone else’s life. A form of charity as long as the person benefits from the teachings. A benevolence shows the meaning behind the relationships. May Allah guide us to follow the Quran.

Ahmed Ali Butt Controversial Statement Raises Eyebrows

Ahmed Ali Butt

Ahmed Ali Butt was invited to Ghabrana Mana Hai, a show hosted by Vasay Chaudhary. Even though it has been quite some time since that happened, Vasay posted a clip of it on his Insta stories last night which got our attention. It certainly sounded like an irresponsible statement to us, but you tell us what you think.

So let us lay it out for you what happened. 

The conversation was about how in current times, it seems that every other joke is offensive, and people mind it. So in response to that, Ahmed said that jokes are, at the end of the day, at someone’s expense. But since we comedians only want to make people laugh so the people whose expense we are making it should be more open-minded and accepting of it.

What???

Just because your intention towards a specific group of people is positive, that does not negate the fact that you made a joke on another group of people.

What is a joke?

Looking at a joke’s actual definition, we found that it is a thing that causes amusement or laughter. So fitting in what Ahmed Ali Butt said, the jokes that he crack would mean a whole group being amused at another group. They find what other group experiences funny; it means that they are looking down on the other group.

A better way to make jokes is to say funny stories about the community you identify with, something you have experienced for yourself. Considering the comedian-actor has almost a million followers, he should be careful of what teachings he spreads.
