The actress Sajal Ali is an amazing actress, and she has proved her talent through her numerous projects. The celebrity was even invited by Bollywood to perform alongside Sridevi. She has gathered quite some love from many people. Besides being talented, she is also very beautiful, and people just adore her and Ahad together. The husband and wife are quite regular in posting about their lives to keep their fans in the loop.

Sajal Ali Instagram Info

With more than 700 posts on her Instagram, Sajal had gained 6.9 million followers. But now, her account only has 371 pots. She has deleted almost half of her posts. Don’t be scared though, all of her pictures with her husband Ahad are still on. She has also unfollowed more than 70 people.

One can only wonder what led to the Mom actress behaving in such a way, but some people assume that it was her copying a Bollywood actress who pulled a similar stunt.

What could be the reason?

It should be noted that the actress has also made her debut in a Hollywood movie where she performed alongside Emma Thompson. And this could very well be the reason why she filtered her account. I mean, tell me, have we not ever modified our Instagram accounts keeping in mind the people who could be accessing us?

JS Bank Holds An Engagement Session To Applaud The Efforts Of Team Members

JS Bank

Completing another year of growth, JS Bank held an engagement session for its Retail Banking and Product & Marketing teams at the Mohatta Palace. Recognizing that its success would not have been possible without its people which serve as the backbone of the organization, the Bank put together an event with the theme ‘The Power of You’ to applaud the efforts of JS Bank team members and their unmatched commitment and dedication to the Bank.

In 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, JS Bank set a new record and closed the year with a deposit base of over Rs. 430 Bn. Other numbers showed similar growth with payroll financing crossing the Rs. 12 Billion mark while its signature product of Gold Finance stood at Rs. 7 Billion for the year. The Bank was recognized as the Best SME Bank at the Asian Banking and Finance Awards as well as the Best Bank for SMEs and CSR at AsiaMoney 2020.

 

The event included various engagement activities, an award segment for key individuals and the launch of the new and improved JS Mobile Banking Application.

Saath mil kar – Barhna Hai Aagey!”

The speeches were followed by dinner and festive music for the entertainment of all present and was a much-needed event for the JS Family.

Rihanna To Sing The Official Peshawar Zalmi’s Anthem?

By now, you have probably heard the official Pakistan Super League’s anthem for its sixth edition. The song featured Naseebo Lal, Aima Baig and Young Stunners and was accompanied by a vibrant music video and a catchy beat.

Even though it has barely been 24 hours since the song released, the song has already managed to gain a lot of attention from the Pakistani fans and followers of PSL who were anticipating its release.

A Possible Anthem By Rihanna For Peshawar Zalmi?

The anticipation for the official song was breaking all charts after the artists for this year’s anthem were officially announced. Many were speculating about what the song would sound like and whether or not the music, lyrics and the video accompanying it would get the cricket fans to celebrate the arrival of cricket at our national stadiums.

Javed Afridi who is the Chairman of Peshawar Zalmi along with being the CEO of Haier and Ruba, hinted at a possible anthem sung by the American superstar Rihanna who is one of the most popular singers in the world.

Is The Official Peshawar Zalmi Song Actually Under Works?

The tweet immediately caught everyone’s attention and even though we doubt that anything of such magnitude is under works, if it happens it would take the world by storm considering the American artist has not released an album in over five years.

When asked by a fan, the singer’s reaction shows she might not be interested in making music for a while.

Rihanna has branched out her expertise and her makeup brand Fenty is getting all of her undivided attention. The singer has rarely released any music and we highly doubt she would change her decision for Peshawar Zalmi’s official anthem.

Then what about Javed Afridi’s Tweet?

Even though we are yet to hear anything on this specific tweet from Javed Afridi himself or Rihanna, the tweet was probably poking fun at Indian hyper-nationalists who were turning a blind-eye to the Indian farmers’ protests and were angry after Rihanna tweeted about it.

The tweet in support of the Indian farmers by Rihanna prompted many Modi-supporters to call Rihanna an ISI agent, sponsored by Pakistan.

The tweet hinting the anthem for Peshawar Zalmi to be sung by Rihanna was probably a reaction to such claims but we do hope that we see international artists performing Pakistan Super League’s official anthems.

Hajj Pilgrims COVID-19 Vaccination Made Mandatory By Government

COVID-19 Vaccination
Image Source: The Milli Chronicle

Covid-19 vaccinations have finally started reaching most of the world. Considering a vast population has contracted COVID already, and almost everyone is susceptible to contracting it, vaccinations have become very important. However, it needs to be administered strategically.

COVID vaccine administration

At first, it was the health workers, the front line army in the COVID war. Then came the senior citizen and patients; after that, it would be healthy. Anyone out of turn would have to suffer the consequence. But someone else has joined the list of those who ‘need’ to be vaccinated. The government has announced that the Hajj Pilgrims will be joining the list.

Due to COVID, a minimal number of people from Pakistan will be going to perform Hajj from Pakistan. Last year, Saudi Arabia had allowed only 10,000 people (residents of the country) to perform Hajj. The number will increase this year but will not return to its average level, not yet at least.

Hajj Pilgrims

The Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony has said that the number will only be a few thousand. And all of them will have to get vaccinated before they start the pilgrimage.

In fact, this year, the Hajj pilgrimage will be more expensive than usual. The Hajj scheme started last week. And the government will begin receiving applications from the later part of the current month.

Upon selection of people, they will have to get vaccinated, and considering they would be on the list of the pilgrims; they will be administered with the vaccine. It is not only to ensure that they stay safe in their travels but also so that they do not become the carrier of the virus and bring more and mutated versions of the strain into the country.

BMW Reveals Its Most Powerful Car Ever Built

Image Source: BMW Blog

The Bavarian automaker is known to be one of the world’s best luxury car-makers. The BMW 5 Series has always been a family car and an epitome of class and luxury. The automobile company has decided to step up its game and build the most powerful car the roads have ever seen.

Image Source: BMW Blog

The Most Powerful Car Ever Built By BMW:

Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, commonly referred to as the BMW, is a German automobile manufacturer who has been in the business since 1916, which makes it one of the pioneers of the automobile industry. The manufacturer started its operations by making aircraft engines and later entered the automobile industry, so it would only make sense if there is an urge to make the most powerful car in its portfolio now.

BMW M5 CS – The Top-tier Car Of Its Portfolio

BMW M5 CS is the latest German automaker model, which is capable of going from 0 to 100 KM per hour within three seconds. The powerhouse has 2.2-Litre twin-turbo V8 engine. The manufacturer has also managed to get rid of its 70 Kilograms, which makes it lightweight while enhancing the car’s performance. The car also consists of a carbon-fiber roof, bonnet, front spoiler, and diffuser.

The sedan’s interior features the signature luxury design and aesthetics that the BMW is known for a while, having the elements of a sports car.

While the car is being praised for its features, there has been criticism for the lack of innovation in its front look, which doesn’t make the car look futuristic and stand-out from its peers.

Production and Manufacturing:

BMW intends to keep this car limited and exclusive but has not revealed the number of cars it intends to make of this particular model, hinting towards positioning this car as an “exclusive make” to be owned by a limited number of owners.

The features and description revealed that the car manufacturer intended to make a car that is a powerhouse and stands out from everything the manufacturer has ever made; however, you might also want to check out some of the worst cars ever built.

The company is known to be one of the most prominent automobile manufacturers and has taken jabs at its competitors in the past. The automobile maker also revamped its logo and revealed a new one after 23 years, which signals towards its more futuristic approach from now onwards.

Hareem Farooq’s Recent Dance Video Is Making People Question Her

hareem farooq hum bridal
Image Source: Brandsynario

Hareem Farooq has gotten much popular with regards to Pantene HUM Bridal Couture Week but it’s all for the wrong reasons!

Show-Stopper

Hareem Farooq is undoubtedly one of the most popular and successful actresses this country has to offer. Naturally, she enjoys a large fan-following and is much loved by Pakistanis. Her cheerful disposition and stunner looks are also her distinctive qualities.

Keeping said things in mind, it’s no doubt that she was chosen as a showstopper by an up-and-coming designer. Nisa Hussain chose Hareem Farooq as her showstopper because if there is anyone who can make a statement, it’s her in a bridal couture lehenga.

Her Look

A post shared by Galaxy World (@galaxy.world.official)

What Went Wrong?

However, some things went wrong… and the statements being made are anything but nice. But don’t they say that even bad marketing is marketing indeed?

Hareem Farooq stayed true to her personality and owned the ramp in her own style. However, it must be noted that an individual must respect the requirements of the particular roles they take. If Hareem Farooq is not a model by profession, surely she must still know how models are supposed to grace the ramp.

It Ain’t A Dance Party!

Hareem Farooq stepped onto the ramp in a heavily worked, red lehenga and instead of walking with panache, she grooved! She rocked on the ramp as if it was a dance floor for a wedding or a party and was unusually confident.

Though people are glad that she is as happy and as confident as she was on the ramp, that is no justification for this behaviour. What happens during this fit of moves and confidence is that the clothes become secondary which is unfair. She was hired for the clothes, not the moves!

Moreover, a model is required to gracefully walk on the ramp. Panache is required, elegance and a charming look are needed. For instance, if a model is featured in a film, one wouldn’t want them to the catwalk and just leave right? Similarly, if one has been hired as a showstopper, be a showstopper!

People Are Displeased

As a result, people are obviously displeased. They have comments to make that are not particularly nice or encouraging and truth be told, they can not be blamed. Although, it is a point to be taken that the same things can be said in a more constructive manner!

Apple To Release Apple Glasses Soon For An Ultimate AR Experience

Gone are the days when the smartphone manufacturers solely competed based on their phones. Many tech-enthusiasts and industry analysts claim that the smartphone industry has come to a stand-still. With the manufacturers releasing the phone every year, we hardly see any real innovation or ground-breaking invention being incorporated.

Image Source: Tom’s Guide

What Are The Apple Glasses And What Will It Do?

As per rumors and numerous reports posted on the well-reputed blogs, Apple is working on an AR device and intends to expand its product portfolio. As per Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, an augmented reality device, referring to the Apple Glasses, is expected to be launched in 2023. However, Ming Chi-Kuo, another well-known analyst, claims this device would be released in 2021.

Regardless of whenever it releases, the anticipation is real as we have not really seen a stronger implementation of augmented reality in the smartphone industry ever since it was released. A patent filed by Apple reveals that the glasses or spectacles would enable it for the wearer to see in the dark.

Jon Prosser, another well-known Apple news leaker, claims that there is a huge probability that the glasses are coming sooner than we expect them to release. He stated a release date in the third quarter or early fourth quarter of 2021, which makes it any day between March till June.

He also claims that he has seen those glasses and described them as sleek while claiming that he will soon show them to the world.

What Else Do We Know So Far?

Last year, several sources stated that Apple Glasses have passed the prototype stage and are going under trial-manufacturing, which marks a significant milestone for a company that focuses on innovation. The dominance of Apple over the technology world cannot be denied.

Earlier this year, the smartphone manufacturer decided to exclude its charging-plug from its box, prompting many reactions. The move was soon imitated by its competitors Xiaomi and Samsung, who have also imitated Apple’s move to remove the headphone jack from its smartphones in the past.

What Does Apple Say?

Although Apple is yet to announce or comment on the rumored gadget, we are all excited to see what the company has to reveal this year. It benefits the customer at the end of the day as the competition would force the competitors to innovate. This will give us more options and variety to choose from.

Mountaineer Muhammad Ali Sadpara’s Video Makes Everyone Emotional

Ali Sadpara
Image Source: Dawn

The Pakistani Mountaineer Ali Sadpara has been reported missing during his climb along with climbers from Iceland and Chile. The news has gone viral, and his son has also stated that his father’s chances are slim. Sadpara’s search continues to detect any traces of him.

The mountain climber and his plans

Considering Ali Sadpara is a veteran mountain climber, maybe just maybe he was able to survive it. Moreover, he had said right before he went missing that were he ever to get lost on the mountain, he would make an ice room and would be able to stay in it for a few days even without food and water. Scientifically speaking, if he can make the room in time, this is entirely possible since the most significant danger is the cold, and an ice room on the mountain will have a higher temperature compared to the outside.

As the search continues without any result, people from all over are talking about him and hoping for his safe return. They were reminiscing about whatever they remember about the man. One such tweet contained a video of him singing, and it is very emotional.

An emotional video of Ali Sadpara

The song he is singing has lyrics that loosely translate to “forget the world and come for my sake; I was wounded by your absence, come to me for the sake of the mountains.”

Watching the video and seeing him sing and dance, people started commenting on it, and it is unfathomable how someone you have not met, you get goosebumps, and you pray for him from the depth of your hearts.

Hopefully, it will be soon that he is rescued alive. We can only hope that he made an ice room because surviving in negative 48 to 60 degrees is not logically possible.

Ali Xeeshan Takes A Jab At Dowry, Leaves Everyone Speechless

Ali Xeeshan
Image Source: Instagram

Ali Xeeshan has been known to speak up about social issues through his work, especially about the issue of child marriages. Last time, he made waves when he teamed up with BBDO’s Ali Rez in a fashion show. As the show stopper, they sent out a girl in decorated uniform to represent how little girls who should be going to school get married off.

Ali Xeeshan – statement on child marriages and dowry

This time, the designer made yet another statement at the Pantene HUM Bridal Couture Week through the collection, Numaish, collaborating with UN Women. Alongside Hasnain Lehri, dressed as the groom, he sent a child bride who wore a very heavy and fancy bridal dress and was dragging along a cart laden with the dowry. She could barely walk in the dress, let alone pull the cart along.

While the audience was quiet, the background played a desi wedding song.

Have a look:

https://www.instagram.com/p/CK__C0aA0k6/

This move sparked a conversation on Twitter, and ever since then, the hashtag #SayNoToDowry has been trending.

#SayNoToDowry

Numerous people have come forward to give their opinions on how this is a practice that is neither endorsed in the religion we follow here nor should we sold our daughters off.

While we talk about how this is a negativity that we should not endorse, this practice has seeped deep into our minds. It is so inherent that the bride’s family assumes they would be ashamed if they were not to give dowry. They have to be very cautious of not just the groom’s family and how they would treat the daughter if they do not get their hands on the dowry but also of the guests invited.

It will take lots of time to get to the stage where we don’t think like that. But it is such creative and thought-provoking works by designers like Ali Xeeshan working with UN women that can lead to a positive change in our society.

Harvard Law Review’s First Muslim President Appointed

Harvard grad as muslim president
Image Source: today.harvard.law.edu

Education is a vital part of your life. Whether it is pursuing a career in the sciences, the business side, or the literary world, education is critical. It is significant to note that a person can be held back from accomplishing their true potential without education. People even gain a broader understanding of their passion when they dive into the details of it through education.

The concept of education is not just university and college but any place where you are learning something. Even the domain of self-taught is considered as education. Contrary to belief, there is no age limit for this. If you have passed the conventional school attending age, it doesn’t mean you can never attend school. There is no age for education; get it when you can! Speaking of education, a Harvard student has just been recognized as the first Muslim president of a law journal!

Learned People

A person is indeed able to view the world from numerous perspectives when they go for education and learning. They begin to see this side of life that not everyone can. Whether you are a doctor or an engineer, you start to observe wider angles. An electrical engineer can perceive the connections behind a wall without even looking at them. Of course, there will be changes, but they will have an idea of what lies behind them.

Learning helps you unveil that barrier by perceiving various areas of understanding. So what is this piece of news that everyone keeps talking about? Harvard is a place that is known for its impressive history and extraordinary faculty. A graduate of Harvard from 2016, Hassaan Shahwy, has become the president of one of the most prestigious US law journals! Is that not the most impressive accomplishment we have heard? Additionally, he is the first Muslim to do so, in the journal’s 100+ year history!

The Accomplishment

This moment must have been quite a happy one for the parents of the student too. Hassaan has done his degree in History and Near Eastern Studies. The name itself sounds like it holds quite a lot of weight. Graduating from Harvard is no less of an achievement and then becoming the president of the law journal. Other personalities who have worked at Harvard Law Review are Barack Obama, Susan Estrich, etc. Obama was the first black president of the club. Susan was the first female president!

Now, this designation comes with as much responsibility as it comes with honor and prestige. We hope that Hassaan continues to hold his head high as he navigates through the obstacles of Harvard Law Review.

First muslim president from Harvard

Moment Of Pride

This accomplishment shows precisely how well the work of diversity is taking place. A Muslim being elected as president there also shows the ability of people to work together. There need not be any form of bad blood between people, and harmony can prevail.

Hassaan’s plans, at this point, are unclear. However, we do know that he intends to work hard even onwards from where he is right now.

HBL PSL 6’s Highly Anticipated Anthem “Groove Mera” Finally Released

Image Source: Youtube

With the Pakistan Super League (PSL) new season arriving and the event dates getting closer, there was growing anticipation by cricket fans who wanted to see what the most-watched domestic cricket league of Pakistan has in store for them this year.

Image Source: Youtube

“Groove Mera” – Naseebo Lal, Aima Baig & Young Stunners

When it was announced that PSL’s anthem would be performed by Naseebo Lal, Young Stunners, and Aima Baig, fans were curious and excited to discover how Pop’s fusion Vintage and Urdu-Rap would turn out to be. Today, moments ago, the Pakistan Super League premiered their highly anticipated track, “Groove Mera,” featuring all these artists. The anthem is being watched and enjoyed by millions of cricket fans, specifically in Pakistan and worldwide.

Pakistan Super League

Pakistan Super League is the most-watched cricket league of Pakistan. It is awaited by cricket fans the entire year to witness their favorite national and international cricket superstars playing on the Pakistani grounds representing teams that belong to their own cities or regions.

What the anthem represents

This year, PSL took a bold step by merging Young Stunners’ Hip Hop, Aima Baig’s pop, and Naseebo Lal’s folk music to create an anthem; that is looked forward to by Pakistanis every year. The anthem is the perfect reflection of our regional and cultural heritage; Hip Hop urbanizes it using Talha Younus’s and Talha Anjum’s bars to express the enthusiasm of cricket that runs through every Pakistani’s veins, while Naseebo Lal starts off the track with the intro giving it a vintage essence reflecting the love for cricket that has been inherited since generations. Aima Baig’s chorus and verse keep the listener grooving along with the catchy beat produced by the legendary Xulfi.

Image Source: Youtube

The official video accompanying the song features numerous prominent cricket superstars, including Sarfaraz Ahmed, Shadaab Khan, Shan Masood, Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Wahab Riaz, making the video a star-studded production.

Did you watch the “Groove Mera” music video yet? What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

New Ultra-Luxury Electric Hypercar To Be Developed By FAW

FAW and electric hypercar
Image Source: twitter.com

The automotive industry in the world is currently developing a whole lot of vehicles. It has been known information for a while now that the combustion engine era might begin to end in a matter of years. Where only petrol and diesel-run vehicles ruled the streets, the need for alternative fuel has become more. The dream of an electric vehicle extends far beyond the boundaries of the 21st century. This was even a concept that was seen back when Edison had an electric war with Westinghouse.

Electric cars use technology that requires cars to have no engine block and no exhaust. It is all clean energy, and even the charging stations are clean. The vehicle itself runs on lithium-ion batteries and can give substantial miles on a charge. However, we need more charging stations. In light of this, FAW is set to develop an electric vehicle!

FAW to develop new electric

FAW Is Exceptional

There are some brands in existence whose production and presence just simply screams brilliance. FAW is one of those brands. They have been at work for quite a long while now, and their vehicles baffle and impress drivers all over the world. They have this secret recipe of packing power underneath the hood at a level where other brands might not be able to replicate.

The writer of this article remembers seeing a FAW vehicle, which did not seem like a huge one, but it was packed with a 1-liter engine. In a compact size which is smaller than the latest Golf GTI, packing 1 Liter is quite a punch. In recent news, however, FAW seems to be partnering up with an Italian based startup by the name of Silk EV. Together, they intend to manufacture and develop an Electric Luxury Hypercar!

Developing An Impressive Car

So what exactly is the news here? Yes, it involves the car brand FAW. It seems they are diving quite deep into the automotive industry. With a lot of brands moving into electric car territory, FAW appears to be doing the same. However, they seem to be on the verge of a Hypercar manufacture. It is set to be an ‘Ultra Luxury Hypercar’, which means it will neither lag on performance or design. Additionally, the car is going to be dubbed ‘S9’.

Silk EV will work on the car’s inner systems, while FAW oversees everything and provides the start-up with any financing it requires. Many Chinese brands like SAIC, BYD are on an aggressive warpath to move towards electric technology. However, FAW is one of the leading brands in this league, it seems. Even other brands like KIA are also looking to develop electric vehicles. However, the Hypercar dream is new to this domain.

Hyper Electric

Not a lot of details are known on the vehicle itself. However, we do know that it is going to be quite a task to manufacture an electric Hypercar. Tesla’s vehicles can move quite fast, especially in the ‘Insane Mode’. However, breaking the 300 miles per hour barrier can prove to be a hurdle.

We hope they are successful in their plan to develop this vehicle so that we may see more advancement in 2021!

Video Of Bilal Saeed Has Gone Viral – What Happened?

new Bilal Saeed viral video

When it comes to creating drama, no one does it better than the world of pop culture. Of course, one can argue that the WWE creates even more drama, but they are also part of such a culture. There was once a time when ‘Undertaker’ used to be one of the most viral characters in the world because of his acts. He used to come back to life after every season or so, and in the most dramatic ways. What better location to resurrect from than the center of a wrestling ring, right?

Similarly, news about celebrities is often made viral due to the content in them. People want to see what exactly happened. In a video recently found, songwriter Bilal Saeed is seen getting into an argument of sorts. After some seconds into it, the argument even escalates, entering into the physical domain! Let us look at the details.

Bilal saeed viral video out
Image Source: pakobserver.net

Bilal Saeed

You must have heard this name quite a lot. Those of you born in the late 90s or early 2000s must be familiar with this personality. He was one of the singers to go viral around the start of the second decade. His song ’12 Saal’ is considered somewhat of a cult classic in the hip hop domain, alongside Imran Khan’s ‘Amplifier.’

He gained fame around that time and then released some songs which caught the public ears. Then came a time when many people had his songs going on their car stereo systems or Bluetooth speakers while riding a bike. However, in recent years, there have not been a lot of song releases from his end. One could say the singer was lying dormant up until the most recent video. So what has happened in that video? Apparently, it seems to involve his brother!

The Video Gone Viral

The video starts off as an ordinary one. However, it can be seen there is something strange at work. Bilal Saeed is standing at the front gate of a house, talking to a person and their significant other. In the expressions noted, it seems that the three people are arguing with each other, two being on one side. Then Suddenly, Bilal Saeed takes a step forward and violently hits the male.

According to sources, that male is Bilal Saeed’s brother, who is standing with another lady. After hitting his brother, the brother attempts to fight back. The two are broken up by the security officials present around Saeed. He then tries to move again and kick the lady too. Yes, that is right. He not only hit his brother but swung a kick in the lady’s direction also. What kind of person does all this?

Uncalled Moments

This fight was one that can be considered a surprise. We obviously do not know the circumstances surrounding the event that followed. However, raising his hand as he did should not have been a measure to resort to. We have a whole world of negotiations at hand, and they should be made use of.

We hope the heat between these people does not stay high for a long time.

Graana’s Campaign Shows Pakistan’s Fast Progress In Real Estate World

Graana

Graana.com

2020 taught us that even if the world suffers from a global pandemic, life waits for no one. And with life goes on, all that is attached to it. So you have to get your monthly groceries, go to work, get married, make investments, among other things. But there was another lesson that we learned thanks to the year, and that was, we can do everything online, even if that means buying, renting, or selling property.

Go Online To Deal In Real Estate

Just imagine how cool even the idea is that just how you go and buy a burger online, precisely that way you can deal in real estate and with full confidence that you will not be scammed.

Taking a look at the recent ad by Graana.com gives you that feeling. Signing Shaan Shahid as the ambassador, the brand does not do unnecessary dramatization. No, they go straight into the matter of providing facts and information telling you that they know their stuff. Having Shaan on board, a massive name of the Pakistani Film Industry certainly plays a significant role as well because people from all over the country know Shaan. And when you know someone, you automatically trust what they stand with.

Positioning

Throughout the ad, you can see visuals of Pakistan but what was even better was they had positioned the DVC. They had employed the national identity by showing Pakistan, and they had taken an informational approach with facts and figures scattered on the digital map of the country.

It seems alien, doesn’t it? Very foreign? But is very local indeed. Providing the fantastic service, CEO Graana.com Shafiq Akbar, and Directors Farhan Javed and Arslan Javed, have joined hands to present a world-class service to the Pakistanis. A Pakistani at the core, with an extensive experience having worked in the UK for the past two decades, is set to deploy the same standard at Graana.com in Pakistan.

Graana.Com Experience

Seeing such an ad would spark an interest in anyone, so we, too, went to the website of Graana. And what an experience that was. You just have to put in your preference, and be it a place you are looking to buy or rent; you get to see a very relevant list.

The resolve – ‘Hamara Yaqeen Dil Se’ manifests the ideals and objectives of Graana.com which seeks to sort out the needs and provide transparent and authentic real estate services to the Pakistani community, since the success lies in ‘working together’ for a better community, for a better tomorrow.

The fact that they are Pakistanis is important because there is a level of trust attached; you know that the people facilitating you are fellow countrymen. So they know the territory as much as you. In fact, as the ad suggests, more than you.

Graana.com Celebrate its Launch Nationwide

The grand launch of Graana.com was celebrated nationwide, as major landmarks across Pakistan were turned red.

Graana.com showcased ‘Pakistan par Hamara Yaqeen Dil Se’ themed projection show on the city’s most iconic landmark – Minar-e-Pakistan, highlighting the history and heritage of Pakistan, including the indigenous and radiant truck art.

In addition, the Clock Tower in Faisalabad and Qila Bala Hissar in Peshawar were also illuminated red, to mark the launch of services with 30+ offices in 20+ cities.

Electric Cars By Ghandhara Nissan To Be Introduced Within 3 Years

We all have seen the developments being made in the world of automotive. Since the first decade of the 20th century, people have been thinking about the production of cars. Of course, they were made in the 20th century, but the dream of a car stretches long before that.

Even when people used to drive in horse led carriages, they imagined a world without horse led vehicles. People were initially afraid to sit in cars because there was no horse in front. It was fear with good reason, too, as early vehicles even developed an immense amount of issues, including starter problems and gear changing. Speaking of automobiles, have you ever heard of Ghandhara Nissan?

You might have come across the name occasionally. However, in recent news, it seems this brand introduces a new generation of vehicles in Pakistan. Yes, they are set to introduce electric cars!

Automotive In Pakistan

Pakistan is still a relatively young country on the map. If we compare it to the UK and USA, there is a considerable gap in between. However, even in the time that Pakistan has existed, its developments have not slowed down. Lahore is not the city it once used to look like. Even old Lahore has been transformed into somewhat of a modern one. With regards to the new Lahore, it can be considered a futuristic city, architecture wise.

Between all this, the automotive industry in Pakistan has taken a jump. With KIA doing considerable development here, alongside the introduction of Changan and MG Motors, there is much to anticipate. However, in recent news that has slid across our desk, Ghandhara Nissan is has made a deal with China. They have entered into an agreement with Chinese automaker Chery.

The New Deal

According to sources, this deal will allow the entrance of Ghandhara Nissan electric vehicles into Pakistan. Of course, this will not be done overnight as they stated that it would take three years. This seems like quite an understandable deal because Pakistan may not be ready to accommodate a lot of electric cars here. There is not an abundance of charging stations here, which will only increase the ‘Range Anxiety’ of people driving cars. From home, they take six to eight hours to charge.

This deal allows Pakistan to test out new boundaries. Granted, the electric sector is not too far ahead, but other brands also intend to release EVs here. They will not just be selling EVs in Pakistan but will be setting up a plant and manufacturing them too! This news comes only in synchronization with MG Motors getting greenfield status in Pakistan.

Electric Cars For The Win

Whether Ghandhara Nissan will be successful in this endeavor remains to be seen. However, one can always hope, and many foundations can be built on just this one deal. Pakistan is making its way swiftly on the automobile map because of the recent entries. More and more brands are making their way inside, and soon, we will have nothing but assortment!

It will formally be finalized on February 17th. And the formal contract is reportedly going to promise the production of 100,000 vehicles yearly. They will start rolling out from 2024. Once the process has been streamlined, it will further expand the capacity four times more.

Apple Car – a thing of now?

The journey to having its own car has been a long one for Apple. At first, they wanted to make a car from the basic level. But it did not fruit result, and they decided to abandon the idea for some time and focus on software more. It’s been six years since then.

But let’s backtrack a bit to the part where they wanted to design their own car. As part of their design, the battery they intended for was to reduce the cost meanwhile increasing its range significantly.

Kia Apple Details

This new car will have a range of 300 miles when fully charged, and a five-minute charge will take you 60 miles. Moreover, the speed can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than 3.5 seconds. And the highest speed it can achieve is 160 miles per hour. Ming-Chi Kuo, the Apple expert, has mentioned that these configurations are of a high-performance car.

It is also being said that the Apple car might have a feature that was included in iPhone 12 Pro last year. this was so because Apple was found talking to the suppliers of that feature. It is called the lidar sensors, and it will be used to scan distances.

Moreover, according to the Apple design, the battery will probably be made from Lithium Iron Phosphate because it is safer than other lithium-ion batteries that overheat a lot. The design by the iPhone makers is of a mono-cell design that will consume lesser space now that pouches and modules are not necessary.

Minal Khan & Ahsan Mohsin’s Conversation Is Making People Cringe

The identical twins Aiman and Minal Khan made their entry into the showbiz industry together. Initially, it was hard for their fans to distinguish between them, but over time each has proved her talent for acting. The two have owned their status of celebrity and stay in the celeb news quite often. Case in point being ‘quite long wedding functions of Aiman.

Minal Khan and Ahsan

Another time was when Minal Khan posted a picture on her Instagram with her celeb boyfriend (as their pictures have made obvious), and Pakistanis lost their cool.

Amongst the lectures on cultural values and religious values, Minal and Ahsan Mohsin Ikram had to hear lots of criticisms all over social media. Safe to say, most of them have still not approved of their relationship. But what do they care? If they are happy, then nothing else matters.

Anyway, Minal Khan took to Instagram sharing a picture of hers at Côte Rôtie, located in Alliance Francaise, Karachi. Sitting in the sun with a glass of orange juice, she captioned it, “Taking Vitamin C and vitamin D together.”

And we all know (here I am assuming that we actually do), sun translates into vitamin D, and orange translates into vitamin C.

She looks absolutely dazzling in the sunlight. While her fans admired it, Ahsan Mohsin Ikram also commented. He said, “& most importantly vitamin A.”

Scientifically, you can get vitamin A from animals. They can be dairy products, fish, and meat. But obviously, Ahsan didn’t mean that. It was his way of being cheeky. In actuality, by A, he meant himself.

And Minal replied to him, saying, “carrying with me.”

Did that mean she was there with him?

Pakistanis commenting on their conversation

But that’s not the point. The point is that Pakistanis were cringing at what they read.

We have a right to our opinion definitely. That said, we should also be cautious about what we say because we can hurt someone. And that’s never nice, is it?

foodpanda Leads On-Demand Grocery Delivery In Asia With The Launch Of Its 150th pandamart

foodpanda

SINGAPORE — 4 FEBRUARY 2021 — foodpanda today announced the launch of its 150th pandamart in Asia. With its first store launched in Singapore in October 2019, pandamart, foodpanda’s grocery cloud store network, has since been rolled out to 40 cities, across eight markets in the region — Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the Philippines. With this milestone, foodpanda now operates Asia’s largest network of cloud grocery stores, providing consumers with easy access to more than 4,000 grocery and household products, delivered within 25 minutes.

Operating the cloud store concept with pandamart

pandamart cloud stores are purpose-built for deliveries only, with no walk-in retail storefront. Technology and data intelligence form the foundation of every pandamart — from determining its location, to the products carried in each store and how inventory is arranged within the space for maximum picking efficiency, so groceries and household essentials can be efficiently packed and delivered on-demand to consumers. Products available via pandamart include household essentials from global brands like P&G and Unilever, as well as fresh produce from local grocers. pandamart also carries plant-based and sustainably-grown produce and products on the platform.

The global pandemic has changed the way people obtain food, groceries and other daily essentials. Research firm Forrester 1 reported that grocery is the fastest-growing category in the APAC region, with the adoption of online grocery services expected to grow 30% from 2019 to 2024 and online penetration doubling from 5.1% in 2020, to 10.6% in 2024.

This trend corresponds with the surge in consumer demand that foodpanda saw on its platform. Across the region, the number of first-time customers ordering groceries via foodpanda more than doubled between the first and second half of 2020 — a trend that continues to grow in 2021. The goal for relatively newer markets like Malaysia, Thailand, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the Philippines is to make pandamart available to consumers nationwide. This has already been achieved in Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong where the service was launched earlier.

A regional look at how pandamart leverages technology for accessibility, variety and speed

With location intelligence and data trend insights, pandamart locations are strategically chosen to make grocery deliveries accessible to communities for both major cities and suburban areas.

In Malaysia, pandamart became an essential service when the Movement Control Order (MCO) went into effect earlier this year, with grocery orders increasing by almost 70% in the single month of January 2021. Recognising the importance of supporting local food producers, pandamart worked with local partners to source more than 60% of products in Malaysia, offering consumers locally-produced products such as vegetables and soft drinks.

Across the Causeway, pandamart in Singapore offers one of the largest variety of products across the region, with some cloud stores stocking over 5,000 unique products. In addition to groceries and household essentials, Singapore’s pandamart also carries unique offerings from well-loved homegrown SME brands such as Ooh Mala Chips, Ice Cream Cookie Co., Prima Taste and more. With an increasing number of consumers seeking plant-based meat alternatives, pandamart Singapore also offers products from Impossible Foods, Beyond Meat and Quorn.

In Pakistan where 24/7 on-demand grocery delivery is relatively new, pandamart offers a convenient option for consumers to receive their essentials delivered to their doorsteps quickly and safely. On average, pandamart deliveries in Pakistan are completed in under 20 minutes.

Shaping new grocery shopping preferences

To meet fast-changing consumer needs and preferences, foodpanda has invested to grow its q-commerce, or quick commerce, offerings. Beyond its core food delivery vertical, foodpanda is accelerating the rollout of pandamart and foodpanda shops in partnership with retailers, to offer consumers greater convenience, speed and variety.

“Launching 150 pandamart across 40 cities in the midst of a pandemic was no easy task, but foodpanda realised the critical importance in bringing our consumers what they really needed quickly and safely, especially during times of movement constraints,” said Abhishek Sahay, Director of New Verticals at foodpanda. “Now that we’re operating in eight markets, our goal in 2021 is to take pandamart into more cities within our existing markets, plus launch pandamart in all 12 operating markets by the end of 2021.”
