It has been a crazy year thanks to the rollercoaster ride TikTok put us on. See the best videos on Tiktok in 2020!

TikTok’s Rollercoaster

Whether you’re keeping in mind the fame it got when quarantine began, the moral questions it started giving way to, or the bans it has experienced, TikTok has done it all. But, we can not deny there have been some viral videos that even we were guilty of watching. Here’s our pick:

Bella Does M to the B

This girl’s TikTok is perhaps the single video that has become the most viral on all of TikTok. The video also launched Bella’s career as a TikToker and let us know about her history! Would you believe it that the most famous TikToker was a part of the US Navy?

Creativity Knows No Bounds

TikTok has become famous for its creativity. Trends often start from a single video and turn into inspiration across the platform, quickly spreading across with the help of hashtags, and subjects. Whether it was a dance, a new comedy format, or a recipe, these are the trends that took TikTok by storm in 2020.

An Impactful Change

Throughout this tumultuous year, creators have used their platforms to spread awareness for social causes. Moreover, they have been advocates for marginalized and underrepresented communities and they celebrated the many cultures that make the TikTok community so special.

2020 was full of major cultural shifts and we have to acknowledge the role TikTok played in that. Here is an example of one such creator whose video went viral as they continue to risk their lives on the front line. 

Songs That Shape Us

The TikTok community came through heavily in shaping the soundtrack to our lives. This year saw songs transform into immersive, expansive universes that helped people pass the time at home. Moreover, aided by the creativity of people jamming out to dance challenges, transformation trends, and even comedy skits, many found the passion to follow their dreams!

This 10 song playlist – featuring hits from established hitmakers, rising stars, and previously-unknown artists – is just a glimpse.

So You Think You Can Cook?

Did you know you could learn how to cook in under 60 seconds? 2020 could be described as the year when everyone became a semi-professional chef because of Tiktok and also because we did not have a choice.

Drunk Woman In Lahore Caught Assaulting A Police Officer

A situation involving alcohol, a woman and a police officer got out of hand in Lahore’s posh area yesterday. As disappointing as the event may be, it is sadly a routine.

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop

Sources have confirmed that the restaurant was Gloria Jeans in which this incident happened although now reports are leaving out the name. A woman at said restaurant, in DHA, was consuming alcohol in public. Naturally, a police guard came and asked her to stop this activity as it is illegal too. 

To what effect did he stop her? She started abusing him! Not just verbally but also literally and there are videos that prove that.

See The Video For Yourself

What Action Is Being Taken?

The suspect got in the car with her friends after and left the scene. The restaurant has also reported that she heavily misbehaved with the staff of the restaurant before too. After the videos went viral, CCPO Umar Sheikh took notice of it and promised that he suspects would be arrested in no time.

Moreover, he applauds the said guard for not responding to the woman physically despite her misbehaviour.

The Elites and The Educated, Represent!

This incident occurred at the most posh area of Lahore, where restaurants are flooded with the so-called elites and the so-called literate people. Such is the state of such prestigious people, that when they are denied something, their privilege instructs them to start getting physically abusive.

If a guard ever stopped a woman from a lower economic background, do you think she would respond this way? Never! The woman responded like she did because she knows her ‘money’ and her ‘connections’ will help her evade accountability. If the leaders of this country can do that, so can she!

If The Tables Were Turnt

This situation is incredibly problematic also because of the fact that the woman felt she had a right to thrash the police officer. If the tables were turned and there was a policewoman who had stopped a male from something, would we accept the male hitting the female officer? 

The question remains: people need to raise their voice against this more loudly!

The fact that the guard in question was a male is not grounds to assume he can be hit. Had he responded, given the woman delivered the first hit, would we accept that? 

Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Another TikToker Fakes Her Death For Publicity

Image source: Instagram/Twitter

TikTok has been that one platform that has provided everyone with an equal opportunity to become famous. Now, while some people use their talent to get recognized, some people try other tactics. These tactics include having fake scandals, incidents, and even deaths. It does bring them in the news, they get followers, and then after some time, they seek social media to explain how it is fake news, and they were innocent in all this.

Adil Rajput Publicity Stunt

It hasn’t been much time really when Adil Rajput, a Tiktoker had adopted this strategy. He wanted to gain followers. His wife was a part of the hoax. She made a video as well where she was crying, confirming the news. It all fell apart when their fans started gathering around their residence and caught a glimpse of Adil walking around very much alive.

Naila Jutt Fakes Death

Naila Jutt, it seems, is following in the footsteps of Adil Rajput. Last week, a picture went viral of Naila Jutt, which claimed that she had passed away. It was circulated in the media with the hashtag #JusticeFornailajutt. And for some reason, such hashtags get viral instantly in our society. So for Naila as well, her picture, as well as the hashtag, became instant news.

Sometime later, Naila came back on social media claiming she did not know what was happening in the media and that her Instagram account had been hacked. She claimed that she was shocked, and she wanted to clarify to her loving fans that she was very much alive. But then some of her voice notes started making rounds on social media. In those voice notes, it was implied that she was very much a part of this plot. And her voice claims that it is an excellent way to increase fan following.

Have a look:

It is just extremely sad how people take the idea of death so lightly. And this is not to comment on whether this was religiously correct or incorrect. It is just about simple ethics. Do they realize how they played with their loving fans who would have been devastated because they genuinely loved their favorite TikTok star?

It is sad how people discount other people’s feelings just for some likes and comments. Will that ever change? Will they come to understand that there are some limits, some boundaries they should never cross? It’s a question only time can answer.

Glory 580 Pro: How To Book Online & Price Details

SUV Glory price revealed
Image Source: carspiritpk.com

More and more auto companies are emerging in this evolving age of technology. Whether it is United Bravo or Proton X70, each of these vehicles is expected to deliver quite a plethora of features. With newer and newer models hitting the market, it does not come as a surprise to us that they have adequate price brackets. Being new to the automobile market, these vehicles have a goal to attract as many buyers as possible.

In light of this, even Changan has opened online pre-booking for the new Alsvin. The Alsvin is being considered the cheapest sedan available in Pakistan. If it delivers exactly what Honda and Toyota do, why wouldn’t people buy this too? So, in reference to new reveals, the Glory 580 Pro price has been revealed!

Glory Pro price revealed of Pro
Image Source: carspiritpk.com

Glory 580 Vehicle Specifications:

The Glory 580 Pro is being seen by many as quite an impressive vehicle. It’s features and capabilities make it a worthy set of wheels on the road. Whether you’re seating your family inside it or taking a road trip with friends, this vehicle is a good buy. The Glory 580 Pro is installed with 5 doors, alongside a Kerb Weight of 1510.

It has a 4 Cylinder In-line engine with a 7 seating capacity. It is the ideal vehicle for traveling with family, friends, colleagues. Its fuel tank has a 58 Litre capacity. This means that you can drive on for longer distances without worrying about a low tank. The seats in the Glory 580 Pro are extremely comfortable so the driver doesn’t have to worry about back pain either. It can be quite unpleasant to step out of an uncomfortable vehicle after driving for hours on end.

The Price Reveal:

All that said, this must be what you’re waiting for. The price of the Glory 580 Pro has been revealed. With all the impressive specifications this has, the price seems quite a good bargain. With cruise control, climate control, defogger, fog lights as well as rear-seat entertainment, this vehicle has it all.

The price of the Glory 580 Pro has been revealed to be Rs.45.5 Lac. For a 1500cc SUV with flagship features and a premium feel, this is quite a reasonable price! Check out further reviews and details online because this vehicle seems like it will go a long way.

Price revealed of Glory 580 Pro

A Worthy Investment?

The Glory 580 Pro offers an automatic transmission with a max speed of 240. It has yet to be seen what mileage the vehicle gives here. If it has a good fuel average, it is bound to be the perfect SUV package. A good average, an ample fuel tank as well as enough room for people? How is this not a bargain even before the price is revealed.

Since the company is quite new in the market here, we are still yet to see how it will flourish. We hope the company continues to rise through the ranks and establishes itself as one of the best vehicle brands in Pakistan. Maybe we see a Glory 580 Pro in every region in Karachi!

In regards to the Pre – Booking of the vehicle, you can check out the procedure on Daraz.pk. The delivery of the vehicles will take place from April 2021.

Ali Zafar Reacts On Meesha Shafi Being Exposed

Ali Zafar reacts to Meesha Shafi
Image Source: nation.com.pk

There are quite a lot of scandals and news that erupted in social media every day. They can be often seen between celebrities and even between a celebrity and a fan. There are some actors and actresses who are known to not treat their fans nicely. Then there are examples like Keanu Reeves, Tom Hanks, and Emilia Clarke, who treat their fans like royalty. Of course, it is because of the fans that the personality has seen a rise in their careers.

It is crucial to them that their people support them. Similarly, there have been clashes between celebrities as well as allegations. Some have turned out to be true, others have been redeemed as false. The absolute truth is what the involved parties know and the twisted version is what is sometimes displayed.

One such case that has been going on for a while is the Harassment allegation against Ali Zafar. After Meesha Shafi came forward, some more women followed suit. Now, Ali Zafar has tweeted in response to an Alleged Exposure of Meesha Shafi.

The Two Sides

It is of utmost vital for an authority to evaluate both sides of the coin. Meesha Shafi came forward with an allegation. The authorities involved, the investigators, have no reason to question the victim’s motives or reasons. In law enforcement, it is taught that, whatever the victim is telling you, you have to treat it as the truth. Not believing the victim, first and foremost, is a hint towards a botched investigation.

Then, this whole event became quite viral due to outrage from both sides. Ali Zafar fans claimed he was innocent and referred to the other side with some unsanitary remarks. Meesha Shafi’s fans claimed she really was a victim in this. The ‘Me Too’ term was also used during this time.

Alleged Exposure

From a video released by ‘Pakistan Observer’, they state that proof has come forward about some illegal ongoings. The video says that Meesha Shafi’s lawyer, Nighat Dad, has been involved in doing some allegedly illegal work under cover of the organization that stands with ‘Me Too’. The #metoo movement has a solid standing because it stands up for the right thing.

Ali Zafar has responded to this news, as you can see above. He states ‘Unbelievable’ and follows that by the use of the ‘Me Too’ hashtag. Now, one can say that this is a misuse of the hashtag because the context that’s being used in is not what it was meant to be used in. There are a lot of murky waters surrounding this case, but the truth cannot stay hidden.

Pursuit Of The Truth

The involved parties know who is at fault in this entire case. It is advised to you not wholly adhere to an opinion unless you know both sides of the story. If an organization has been allegedly exposed, it does not mean that the initial allegation is wrong. These are two separate incidents.

That said, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and is allowed a voice. It is urged that you make the best possible decision with the resources you have. Taking no sides only helps the oppressor!

People Are Questioning Zara Over Its New Line

Zara with new line
Image Source: harpersbazaar.com

There are three known categories of business that are always recommended. Of course, there can be losses and profits in any kind of business, but that doesn’t mean that the business itself is bad. Food, Clothing, and Property are three of the best business areas that people can invest in.

This applies to clothes, especially, due to the fact that our culture is heavily driven by new clothing lines and wardrobe options. However, like strange food combinations and oddly built houses, the clothing lines can have similar combinations too. With that said, people are questioning Zara over its new line. What can they be talking about?

Zara

This is one of the most well-known brands out there. Whether one is looking for summer attire or winter, one can be considered a viable option. Their wide range allows them to dip into a substantial fraction of the clothing market. They do photoshoots for new collections, and their sales are also a driving point for their products. The most recent photoshoot that comes to mind is one where they loosely reference a romance story.

However, the most recent news has people puzzled. They have, allegedly, released a new line that is not sitting well with people due to it being slightly strange. One can see whether it has an application or not, but they are still trying to figure out what it really.

The New Line

The newest line by Zara, as you can see in the tweet above, shows a most peculiar article. They seem to be seated sleeves that can be worn over other attires. However, where people expect there to be full uppers, the attire just ends at the sleeves. Where is the rest of it? Why is this article resembling a shoulder holster?

Additionally, it’s interesting to note that the price tag on the clothing line reads $30. That is approximately Rs.4, 800/-. The writer of this article has seen more clothing lines costing less and having more to offer. Twitter, amidst all this, has exploded with a plethora of humorous tweets and replies to Zara. Whether it is praising the line or just talking in good humor, the platform has it covered. Check out some of them,

What now?

There is one more point to note in all this. One of the tweets, as you’ll see below, state that this design is being considered a knockoff. A knock off of what, you ask? Well, they are claiming that it allegedly copied Alexander Mcqueen. So there comes another coat of peculiarity.

A lot of the internet people are simply asking ‘Why?’ after observing Zara’s new line. We hope that Zara has a solid marketing plan in mind after this new line. Here is another fun thing to see before the year is up!

5 Reasons Why Pakistanis Should Explore their Own Homeland First!

pakistan tour

Summer is that time of the year when you want to escape your routine life and just run away to another part of the world and seek adventure.

However, the current state of Pakistan’s economy and the rupee’s present standing against the dollar makes travel very difficult. Globetrotting has become a luxury not many can afford.

But then again, why do we only consider flying and touring across the world when Pakistan itself is such a beautiful travel destination? It’s a shame that so many Pakistanis themselves have never considered exploring their own homeland.

Pakistan is a great summer destination that’s affordable and a great way to spend your vacation.

Shahid Afridi Discourages Pakistanis From Traveling Abroad

Here are 5 reasons why Pakistan should be your next travel destination:

1. It’s Comparatively Affordable!

It’s easy on the pocket as a lot of local travel and tour agencies offer amazing packages for you to avail of. The same amount in which you might only be able to afford a visa or plane ticket to an international location can be the same that this will cover food, accommodation, transport, and plenty of awesome activities in Pakistan.

2. Cultural Diversity

Pakistan has four provinces and each has its own culture, traditions, dialect, and palette of food and art. So, even if you are a Pakistani, there’s probably so much you do not know about your own people or country. There are so many languages to learn, delicacies to taste, music to enjoy and communities to explore.

3. Natural Beauty, Adventure, Thrill, and Extreme Sports

Pakistan is full of breathtaking spots that will make you fall in love with this country all over again. It is a paradise for those willing to explore.

The northern areas of Pakistan are famous for the sky-high mountains, lush green valleys, mighty rivers, beautiful lakes, and fascinating wildlife.

If you’re a mountaineer, a rock climber, a paraglider, river rafter, or any other sort of extreme sports athlete, you’d love to explore this part of the world as it offers all kinds of activities that’ll give you an adrenaline rush.

This Pakistani Travel Enthusiast Will Inspire You To Travel

4. The Local Bazaars

There is a flourishing market culture in Pakistan with a number of market places in every city and district, offering something unique.

You can stop by for a conversation with the local shop owners and find out interesting details about the place and particular purchases. This land is a haven for handmade handicrafts and local organic fruit and other edibles that are not available anywhere else in the world.

5. Break the Negative Image and Witness Heaven on Earth

Pakistan is a hidden paradise, yet the perception of the country has always been ‘dangerous’ and associated with terrorism, extremism, and corruption.

Before convincing the rest of the world, we Pakistanis need to be convinced ourselves. And the only way to do that is to pack our bags, hit the road, and get ready to explore.

It’s time to highlight the positive image of the country and to generate awareness among the people.

If you’re into classics, New Girl is a great option. It debuted in 2011 with Zooey Deschanel and found a place in many’s hearts. Think of it as the perfect mix of Friends and Happy Endings. This classic, light sit-com starts with an offbeat teacher (Deschanel) coming to live with three boys. The strong personalities of the characters, their dialogues, and situations all create for a hilarious show.

2. Schitt’s Creek

This one is one of the funniest, modern-day comedy show you can watch. A millionaire family loses all their money overnight and has to shift to a small town. The way the family cries, tries to escape, and settles in the small town is beyond humorous. It’s hilarious, witty, and whole-heartedly progressive, making it a great pick-me-up. Schitt’s Creek also just got nominated for the Emmy Awards.

3. The Good Place

A sitcom with some philosophical depth and loads of humor creates ‘The Good Place.’ It’s a show based in the afterlife when a spiteful, selfish woman ends up in the “good place” accidentally. Not only do the others help her become a better person, but we get flashbacks of her life too. Meanwhile, the architect of “the good place” tries to figure out why everything in this utopia is going haywire. The show is delightful, funny, and exciting to think about.

4. Russian Doll

Again a new series in the Netflix comedy section but a great one. This series has a darker, sci-fi twist on its humor. It is a tale of morality and mortality and explores concepts of sincerity with a distinctive sense of humor. The show uses a time-loop concept, redesigning it for the modern audience. The protagonist gets stuck in the time loop and must learn a life lesson to break out of it.

5. Arrested Development

Arrested Development is a modern comedy classic about a bunch of rich folks who are disconnected and dysfunctional. They don’t know what a banana costs and they also don’t know how to tolerate each other. When the father gets arrested for fraud, the rest start scrambling to keep the cash. As the situation gets more desperate, the comedy rises to a peak. The comic explores dysfunctional family life, inner turmoil, and societal pressures. It all results in a show you won’t want to leave.

These are some of the best comedy shows up on Netflix, so next time you’re feeling the blues, you know where to go. If you’re looking for movies, this is for you.

SBP Is All Set To Launch Consultation On Banking On Equality Policy For Reducing The Gender Gap In Financial Inclusion

Image Source: Dawn

Women’s access to financial and economic opportunities is essential for sustainable and inclusive economic growth. However, women in Pakistan are disproportionately under-served by the financial system. Only 18% percent of adult women in Pakistan have an active bank account compared with 51% men.

In order to address the gender disparities, State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has adopted a medium-term national target of 20 million active women bank accounts by 2023 under National Financial Inclusion Strategy. The target will be achieved through the launch of a policy to reduce the gender gap in financial inclusion, titled Banking on Equality, which aims to promote women financial inclusion in Pakistan.

“Banking on Equality: Reducing the Gender Gap in Financial Inclusion”, is a flagship policy initiative of State Bank of Pakistan for promoting women’s financial inclusion. The policy will introduce a gender lens within the financial sector through specific measures to bring a shift towards gender-friendly business practices.

To initiate a national dialogue on women financial inclusion, SBP has organized a webinar titled “Consultative Launch of Banking on Equality policy: Reducing the Gender Gap in Financial Inclusion on Monday, December 21, 2020 at 1730 PKT (Pakistan Standard Time). The webinar, which will be shown live on State Bank’s Facebook page [https://www.facebook.com/StateBankPakistan] aims to promote awareness of the significance of women financial inclusion and hold discussions among distinguished international thought leaders to discuss practical ways to give a boost to women financial inclusion in Pakistan.

SBP Governor, Dr. Reza Baqir will host the consultative launch of the Banking on Equality policy with introductory presentation on the policy by SBP Deputy Governor Ms. Sima Kamil, and followed by a high level panel discussion around women’s financial inclusion. The panel members would include Princess Zahra Aga Khan Director Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), Ms. Ceyla Pazarbasioglu from IMF and Dr. Reza Baqir Governor, State Bank of Pakistan while Dr. Anita Zaidi from Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) will moderate the panel discussion.

Princess Zahra Aga Khan is a Member of the Board of Directors of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN). Princess Zahra serves in various leadership roles within the Aga Khan Development Network, including as Trustee of the Aga Khan University and the University of Central Asia.

Ms. Ceyla Pazarbasioglu is Director of the Strategy, Policy, and Review Department (SPR) of the IMF.

Gain Weight

We all have a friend in the group who is super skinny! We think that this person is blessed with a metabolism that works at the speed of light. They can eat anything and fit into anything, hence, declaring that life is only fair for them.

However, they might feel differently. Underweight individuals have been found complaining about their weight, similar to an overweight person. For some, it affects their confidence and mood considerably.

Just like overweight people can gain weight by eating in a calorie deficit, underweight people can eat surplus calories to gain weight. No rocket science there!

We have combined a list of eight easy ways that can help you gain weight effectively:

1 – Eat Calorie Dense Foods:

Adding calorie-dense foods to your diet will help you gain weight quickly. These foods include nuts, high-fat dairy, cheese, grains, meat, tubers, chocolates, fats, oil, and all kinds of nut butter. Please avoid sugar as it is just straight up unhealthy.

2 – Stop Drinking Water Before Meals: 

No need to drink water before meals! While drinking a minimum of eight glasses water is essential, it is advised to skip it before and after meals. In this way, you will eat more on an empty stomach.

3 – Have Six Meals A Day: 

For people who have an eating disorder, it is difficult even to eat three times a day. It is suggested to portion your meals into six parts: Breakfast, mid-day snack, lunch, post-lunch, evening supper, and dinner. The portions can be petite but filled with calorie-dense foods.

4 – Lift Weights:

It might sound strange, but to gain weight, you must join a gym. Lifting weights can help you gain muscle mass, which is excellent if you want quick results.

5 – Smoothies: 

Instead of focusing on sugary and oily foods, try incorporating smoothies in your mid-day snack. Use fresh foods, whole milk, honey, nut butter, and seeds to your smoothies. Switch it up every day, so you don’t lose interest.

6 – Supplements: 

Supplements can speed up the process significantly. Usually, creatine is consumed to gain muscle mass, but we’d suggest getting a professional opinion on the matter.

7 – Sleep: 

Sleeping is essential for the growth of your muscles. You can’t possibly do everything according to the book and not get enough sleep.

8 – Protein:

Double your protein intake. Consume more fish, beef, and mutton to add extra protein to your diet.

Eggs are a great way to add protein to your diet. Consuming 6-8 egg whites every morning can prove to be beneficial.

Remember, consistency is key! You can also use MyFitnessPal to count your calories and make sure you are eating in a surplus.

5 Things That Can Go Wrong While Trying To Lose Weight

These methods have been listed after researching on credible websites. However, please speak to a professional before making any significant changes to your diet and exercise routine.

Doodh Patti Ice Cream With Paratha Goes Viral – Would You Try It?

The world has seen an enormous amount of food combinations. Whenever humans wish to experience a different taste, they mix up any two articles. If talking about Pakistan in particular, this country has seen its fair share. The most famous food combination to come out of this place is Pulses mixed with rice.

Basically, anything mixed with rice can be deemed well made. However, the city of Karachi has seen some extremely odd combinations too. They may sit really well with some people, and not at all with others. Food combinations like ‘Nalli Biryani’ and ‘Siri Paye’ have take the culinary world by storm in the past. In light of such creations, we must explore the latest one. It is Doodh Patti Ice Cream with Sugar-Laced Paratha!

A Combination from Innovation:

Talking about good combinations, we cannot keep ‘Chai Paratha’ out. This food duo can be considered a favorite for a huge part of the population. The writer of this article also prefers this type of breakfast on occasional days. Many people consider their day incomplete without having ‘Chai Paratha’. So what exactly is this new innovation?

The combination basically consists of Ice – Cream with paratha. Its a highly sweet dish because both the articles contain sugar. The Ice – Cream has been given a flavour of tea. This is quite possible to achieve. When the Ice – Cream itself is being mixed and prepared, add tea to the paste. It can give off a spiced feeling due to the doodh patti itself.

The Public Opinion:

So what do the locals think about this recipe? It is hugely an extremely mixed opinion. As it turns out, a lot of people don’t want any interference with their tea and paratha combination. It is almost a ritual or a tradition to keep the breakfast item as is. Tweets have broken out in response to the food item. One of them saying,

‘They have finally managed to serve a breakfast item as dessert after dinner!’

Now, when you look at it like that, maybe it is not the best of combinations. However, it is quite far from the worst combination of 2020 so far. There are people who are demanding recipes in hopes of replicating it. Then there are ones who are deleting social media apps until this wave blows over. There is always a time frame for such items. If they become extremely famous, they often find themselves being made by known eateries. If that is the case with Ice – Cream Paratha, we may come across it again in ‘Karachi Eat’

What may have caused this invention?

2020 came bearing quite a lot of things. Not all of them are gifts, though. Of course, there was the trailer for ‘The Batman’ and ‘Justice League: Snyder’s Cut’. Then there was also the release of a world-wide pandemic which still continues to rage on. However, being quarantined and isolated may have been different experiences for all of us. For some, it was a time to reflect, seclude, innovate. The writer of this article believes that that is where this food combination was born.

With other combinations like, ‘Maggi  Gol Gappe’, ‘ Watermelon with ketchup’ and ‘Nutella Biryani’, this does not even come close. The city has a fascination with altering the beautiful essence of biryani! It would be fair to say Doodh Patti Ice Cream can be tried at least once. The sight of it does not make a person recoil in horror.
