The Price Pearl will be almost similar to the Yika E7, the original make, but one of the most prominent changes will be its interior which will be replaced from grey with fake-wood to a fuse of dual-toned grey.

There is still no official word on the reason behind the delay of the launch, however, one of the most common explanations can be the market slowdown which has also caused trouble for a lot of other automotive brands.

We have now to see whether it launces in the upcoming months or will face yet another round of delays, only time will tell.

Jan 29, 2020

Khalil-ur-Rehman’s very popular yet controversial drama serial, Mere Pass Tum Ho witnessed an unprecedented audience resulting in box office earnings of approximately 3 crores in just one evening. The 2-hour long episode was released in cinemas on the 25th of January.

We spoke to Nadeem Mandviwalla, owner of Atrium cinemas regarding the success of the screening of the ARY Digital drama serial featuring Humayun Saeed, Ayeza Khan, Adnan Siddiqui, and Hira Mani. He stated that this was ‘unprecedented’. The largest box office hit was Humayun Saeed’s Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2 during the Eid holidays when the shows started at 11 am”. “No film has ever done what MPTH has done in a single evening, earning almost 3 crores in just one evening.”

The last episode was released in cinemas in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad and had nearly all screens showing the episode with a 100% capacity.

The drama serial is based on themes of love, greed, and hatred and whilst very popular the drama and the writer both have received immense amount of criticism.

Rehman revealed on ARY Digital’s morning show Bakhabar Savera that since the feedback was massive he might as well write a sequel for the drama serial.

If there is a sequel coming our way, we are sure the audience will be glued to their tv screens once again or maybe even the silver screen?

Jan 29, 2020

Pakistan Cricket Board will host the T20 2020 Asia Cup in Pakistan. The tournament is expected to commence from September of this year.

However, despite the fact that international cricket is returning to the country with teams like Sri Lanka and Bangladesh playing successful tours, India still refuses to play in Pakistan.

Board of Control for Cricket in India has said in a statement that India will not be a part of the 2020 Asia Cup if the tournament is hosted by Pakistan.

“The question isn’t about the PCB hosting the tournament. It is about the venue and as things stand now, it is quite clear that we would need a neutral venue. There is no way that an Indian team can visit Pakistan to even participate in a multi-nation event like the Asia Cup,” a BCCI official told news agency IANS.

“If the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) is ok with an Asia Cup minus India then it is a different ball game. But if India is to participate in the Asia Cup, then the venue cannot be Pakistan,” the official said.

We have now to see what will be the final decision of the Asian Cricket Council.

Ten of the thirty-two graduating startups received “Stars of NIC and Jazz Xlr8” awards. These were awarded on the basis of investment raised, revenue generated and social impact created.

“Although we are celebrating the graduating startups here today, we are also celebrating the three-year collaboration between Jazz and the government of Pakistan for the NIC. The scale comes from joining hands and from public-private partnerships. This is how our vision of a truly #DigitalPakistan will become a reality,” said Aamir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz.

Junaid Imam, CEO of Ignite, while addressing the graduating startups, commented, “The startup ecosystem is thriving, and we are all set to make it a strong pillar of Digital Pakistan.”

The national incubation center has startups from diverse genres including Health-tech, Ed-Tech, Fin-Tech, assistive technologies, and artificial intelligence among others.

Aamer Ejaz, Chief Digital & Strategy Officer of Jazz said, “We are committed to playing our part in supporting the startup ecosystem and empowering the youth to build a progressive and digital Pakistan through the NIC and Jazz xlr8.

The ceremony also marked the completion of three years of the National Incubation Centre, Islamabad. This achievement poses a promising future for entrepreneurial initiatives to flourish in the country, and the NIC will continue to strive forward in playing an integral role in the ecosystem.

Parvez Abbasi, Project Director at NIC, on this occasion remarked on the exponential growth witnessed by the ecosystem and appreciated how young talent is playing its role in shaping the future of Pakistan

“Pakistan has immense talent, and through initiatives like the NIC, we can empower the youth to come up with innovative solutions to daunting challenges faced by Pakistan.”

As a part of its vision to boost the ecosystem for more opportunities, NIC on this occasion launched a ‘NIC Startup Community App’, with an aim of providing a platform for investors, startups, partners and mentors to connect with each other.[1]

The initiative is in line with the vision of JazzCash to promote Mobile Money across Pakistan and to facilitate freelance payments as more and more young individuals are opting for self-employment.

Pakistan is amongst the top five countries in the world when it comes to freelancing and generates approximately $ 2 billion per annum entirely from freelancing. However, there were no services that accommodate cash withdrawal on your fingertips until now.

Payoneer is the preferred mode of payment by many of the freelancing platforms such as UpWork, and Fiverr because it’s available globally.

Now, with the JazzCash and Payoneer partnership, the hassle of payment withdrawal is an old story.

We used JazzCash to Withdraw money directly from Payoneer through the application and here’s what we think of it.

The transfer was made almost immediately and payment was received in real-time after connecting the JazzCash Mobile Account to our Payoneer Account. Previously, our amount was transferred with a delay of 2-3 days but with this functionality, the amount is transferred to our account in real-time.

Easy Account Link-up

It is a relatively easy process to register for your JazzCash account. Follow two simple steps: Download the application and then link the Payoneer account with it. Traveling to banks, providing extensive documentation and waiting in long lines is no longer required.

Pay Bills with Just One Click

The JazzCash App also enables you to pay utility bills, transfer funds, Mobile top-ups, make online payments, etc. Once we received our payment, the JazzCash app becomes a one-stop solution for all your payments.

Favorable Exchange Rates

Most of the payments we receive are in dollars. So getting an ideal exchange rate was very important. With this functionality, we got ideal exchange rates that are close to the real-time spot rates.

Free Cash Withdrawal from Any ATM

We were provided up to 2 Free Cash Withdrawals using the JazzCash VISA Debit Card and 1 Free Inter-Bank Funds Transfer from JazzCash App. We ordered the card from the website by the following link.

Free Air Time

We also got free talk time with every freelance payment we received through our JazzCash account meaning you will save on your phone bills too! we were also provided Rs.2 worth of free airtime on every $1 received in our Mobile Account.

Jan 29, 2020

A roadside eatery in Karachi’s FB Area is serving its customers seafood in a very unique way.

The customer not only gets to watch their fish being caught, cut and cooked in front of them, but they are a part of the entire process.

The customer simply has to tell the helper which fish they would like to enjoy in this chilly weather. The helper then catches a live fish from the tank, it is then cooked and served in front of the customer.

“Whatever stock we have is super fresh,” said one of the people who worked at the eatery. “What I mean is, we provide you fish from the sea straight to your plate.”

Noor bade good-bye to the entertainment industry about two years ago mentioning that she would focus on her religion.

Having four failed marriages, Awn Chaudhry happened to be her third husband who now is her alleged current husband.

Noor first wedded a business tycoon Vikram in 2008 but decided to part ways in two years later. Subsequent to that, Noor tied the knot with Farooq Mengal in 2010 and was divorced within the same year.

IPhone SE2 – Everything We Know So Far

iPhone is one of those products that creates a hype of its own and people around the globe eagerly wait for the newest edition every year.

It might be nine months until consumers can get their hands on any of Apple’s newest iPhone 12 handsets.

However, that doesn’t imply the iOS-powered smartphones are a paradox. Not only do we understand many of the important features, but we also have a very good notion about the handset design.

Furthermore, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max are all scheduled to be disclosed somewhere in March 2020, as they’ll be available for the masses to purchase by the end of the month.

https://youtu.be/w9yhEag3JvI

Here’s what we have known so far about the iPhone’s latest iPhone.

1. Camera

The latest iPhone will come with a 12MP primary camera as the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Moreover, the iPhone 12 will come with an exciting modern long-range 3D camera that will be perfect for the users who are looking to brush up their photography game.

2. Design

Another thing that we learned is that iPhone SE2 may disappoint us when comes to go design.

Instead of the iPhone X-inspired peeks of current models, the iPhone SE2 will appear to look like an iPhone 8, complete with a Touch ID fingerprint sensor and no Face ID.

We’ve learned that this will make for a very convenient device you’ll easily be able to use using one hand. The device will also star a glass back to support wireless charging.

3. Display

The iPhone SE2 will have a 4.7-inch screen size. It is anticipated to feature improved brightness and color accuracy, but it will still be LCD and limited to a 1334 x 750 x resolution.

The newest device will come with 326ppi pixel density, which matches the iPhone 11. The iPhone SE2 will not, however, outline the 120Hz ProMotion displays coming to the iPhone 12 range.

However, the highlight of this X-inspired iPhone is expected to have a circa 5/4/5.5-inch display which is considerable.

4. Pricing

The greatest allure of the iPhone SE2 will be its cost. With Apple expected to commence prices from just $449 with 64GB and 128GB storage options available you might like to give this iPhone a shot.

However, let us warn you that you might get less for your old iPhone from Apple than you might have expected.

5. Performance

Besides, the iPhone 11’s primary camera, the other highlight is the iPhone SE2’s blazing fast Apple A13 chipset as the iPhone 11 range.

The sole camera and lower-resolution display will see Apple fit less RAM (expected to be 3GB) but the upside is that this will still be one of the fastest phones around and a match for any 2020 Android flagship.

In a nutshell

It might not be the most exciting iPhone Apple releases in 2020 but the iPhone SE2 is apt to be among the best selling devices.

It’s a hybrid of cutting edge performance and photography at a less price and sheltered inside a compact covering, will make it ideal for those on a budget as well as a great choice for kids and less tech-savvy family members which makes it easier to use the newer iPhone.
