Irfan Junejo Breaks Silence After Facing Major Bullying for Not Making a Vlog on Kashmir Issue

irfan junejo

Recently the Kashmir issue and the tension it has created between India and Pakistan is all over social media.

While every Tom, Dick and Harry has an opinion to offer on the political matter, a huge number of people also urged influential personalities to speak up on and support the cause.

The same kind of hateful persuasion was directed towards one of Pakistan’s most popular YouTubers, Irfan Junejo, and so began the Cancel Culture.

Thousands of people were of the opinion that Irfan hadn’t spoken up because he was afraid of losing Indian followers, while others thought that he just didn’t want to get into something that did not benefit him financially.

Many also opined that Junejo had been silent out of sheer ignorance, and hence many unsubscribed his channel for the same.

After a lot of bullying and pestering over the past week, the YouTuber finally decided to make a vlog about why he had not been speaking up on the matter in a video.

Some social media users remarked about how #IrfanJunejo had been trending on Twitter instead of #Kashmir, which only shows what is of more importance to Pakistanis, the actual issue or the matter of some people not talking about it.

Moreover, many people also highlighted that out of all the people in Pakistan who have been silent on the issue, Pakistanis have chosen to criticize Irfan for staying shut.

Here is Irfan’s video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDfP8Xcf-P4

In the video, Irfan clearly elaborated on the following points:

  • He had made the mistake of making videos on religious and political matters and regretted it to the extent that he vowed not to do the same again.
  • He prefers speaking out openly on social issues instead.
  • If he had made a YouTube video on Kashmir, it would easily earn him 300-400 USD, and he did not want to ‘commodify’ on the issue.
  • He has been severely bullied for not speaking up on the Kashmir issue, and he is not going to let anyone bully him into speaking up on something he does not personally want to.
  • Just because he did not make a vlog about something, does not mean he does not care about the issue.
  • He deeply cares about the Kashmir issue and after being certain of his stance on it, he has been Retweeting and reposting the content he agrees with.

While there have been too many people abusing and bullying him, he has also received support from fans and followers.

Jazz’s CEO Visits Tech Valley Durshal, Abbottabad

jazz

Jazz’s Chief Executive Officer, Aamir Ibrahim, recently visited the Tech Valley Durshal in Abbottabad, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, to explore further collaboration opportunities between the National Incubation Center’s Jazz xlr8 program and Durshal, a joint venture of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Information Technology Board (KPITB).

Since 2017, Jazz has embarked on a journey to digitalize Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and has been proliferating the benefits of connectivity and digital enablement under its ‘Make Your Mark’ program by empowering youth through technology and Digital Skills & Literacy.

The main objective of this visit was to meet and interact with startups, various policymakers, and seek prospective alliances within the tourism sector.

Jazz, the country’s leading digital communications company, has always strived towards making Pakistan a better country for its people as well as others who wish to visit it, which is why it is working hard to collaborate and strengthen ties between itself and various other sectors of the country.

Aamir Ibrahim was introduced to a number of Durshal Startups where possible synergies were discussed. The upcoming Tech Valley Conference 2020 and Tourism Hackathon at DYS19 Peshawar were also discussed.

Most of the consultations centered on startups already working in the tourism industry, what kind of value they offer to some of the already established names such as booking.com and Airbnb, and how Jazz can support the tourism sector through its continuous efforts to make a Digital Pakistan.

During his visit, Aamir Ibrahim also met with notable dignitaries to discuss opportunities within the tourism sector.

Aamir said, “Pakistan is home to some of the most picturesque landscapes; however, tourism facilities from a tourist’s perspective need support and development. We are excited to play our part and help promote tourism across Pakistan to portray a positive image of the country globally. I am sure other organizations in Pakistan will also come forward whole-heartedly to support tourism in Pakistan.”

Aamir Ibrahim also met with Director General Galiyat Development Authority, General Manager of Careem, Mr. Shezad Jamal, Head of Department Tourism and Hospitality Department, Hazara University and the team behind Chkar, a startup with up to 2000 rooms and houses on board in Galiyat with a vision to expand all across KP and Pakistan. Chkar is the Pakistani version of Airbnb.

Apple Product Banned From Planes Over ‘Fire’ Concerns!

Apple

Flights have bid farewell to Apple‘s MacBook Pro due to the dangers of carrying the laptop on flights.

Reportedly, the 15-in device is a ticking bomb because of its lithium-ion battery, making it a potential fire hazard.

Flying onboard with devices equipped with li-on batteries are prone to catch fire due to the risk of battery damage. The FAA placed a ban over these devices to remind airlines that they should neither be carried in cargo or on-hand.

In a statement, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said it was “aware of the recalled batteries that are used in some Apple MacBook Pro laptops” and that it has alerted major U.S. airlines about the recall.

However, the most tricky part is that it is very difficult for security to know whether or not the battery is recalled, replaced, or genuine and is good to fly. Thus, if you have a 15-in MacBook Pro and the authorities say it cannot go through, it will not.

Negative publicity for Apple would come at a cost. Previously, Samsung had been through this nightmare when their Note 7 phablets started to catch fire!

Mahira Khan wants to work with Bilal Abbas Khan

mahira khan mental health day

You must know you are an exceptional actor when Superstar Mahira Khan expresses the desire to work with you.

Bilal Abbas Khan has showcased great talent in Cheekh and won the audience with his remarkable performance as the bad guy, Wajih.

In a recent interview, when Mahira was asked who she’d like to work with, she replied, “I want to work with Bilal Abbas”.

“He’s very good,” she added. Well, we do agree he’s a great actor and after seeing Mahira’s chemistry with Bilal Ashraf, we’d like to see how she looks on the screen with Bilal Abbas!

Eid 2019 Box Office Report: Superstar vs Parey Hut Love, The Box Office Winner Is….!

While age is just a number and it’s the role you choose and your chemistry on screen that matters, people were quick to comment and mock Mahira’s age and the wish to work with a younger actor.

This is not the first time Mahira has been mocked over her age and the roles she plays. Recently, senior actor Firdous Jamal age shamed her and received a lot of criticism for the comment.

“She’s quite aged as well and we don’t have heroines at this age, they only play the characters of mothers”

It’s extremely sad that we are still calling out the leading female actors on their age, while male actors easily get roles opposite female leads half their age.

No matter what people say, Bilal Abbas has proved himself as an actor and climbed the ladder of success with sheer dedication and hard work. There’s a reason he’s gotten himself roles opposite some of the top actors in the industry.

He’s worked with Sajal Aly, Saba Qamar and we won’t be surprised to hear if he’s already signed a project with Mahira Khan too.

As for the age difference, we doubt that’s even an issue.

Mahira Khan’s Superstar was one of Eid-ul-Adha’s biggest releases this year, which earned big numbers at the box office.

Hania Aamir Claps Back at Priyanka Chopra Using Her Own Words Against Her

Hamza Ali Abbasi Declared Himself as a Proud ISI Agent!

Indian journalist and news anchor Arnab Goswami is known to be anti-Pakistan and has always promoted hate speech.

Arnab and his channel Republic TV recently called Hamza Ali Abbasi an undercover ISI agent. In response, Hamza took to Twitter and declared that he is a proud ISI agent and so are more than 200 million Pakistanis.

“So that over actor and war mongerer for ratings guy Arnab/his channel declared me an undercover ISI agent! Let me clarify: I am not an “undercover” ISI agent; I am very openly/proudly an ISI agent, just like more than 200 million Pakistanis are proud ISI agents! #15thAugustBlackDay,” he tweeted.

Hamza, who is very open about his political views, took this opportunity to add that he’s very confident that he will see a free Kashmir really soon.

“I always thought maybe I will not see a free Kashmir in my lifetime but seeing one blunder after another of Modi’s fascist regime and the delusional propaganda their fascist media outlets are spreading, I am now very confident that Insha Allah I will see a free Kashmir very soon,” he added further.

This is not the first time Arnab has spread hate between the two countries. “Fueling the hate between India and Pakistan is criminal and that’s what him and his channel is doing,” actor/ singer Farhan Saeed had also tweeted earlier.

Pakistan observed a ‘Black Day’ on Thursday to coincide with India’s Independence Day celebrations.

The decision was taken at the National Security Commit­tee meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Imran Khan, last week in the wake of the Indian move to revoke Art­icle 370.

Pakistanis Have Taken the Love for Chai to a Whole New Level by Celebrating Their NationaliTea

Pakistan is home to 204,951,508 people.

Over 60 beautiful languages are spoken within this mesmerizing country inhabited by 19 ethnicities under 1 flag.

No matter where you go or who you meet, be it as south as Karachi or north to Kashmir, there is one common factor between all of these amazing people – their love for tea!

Maybe We Should be Called PakisTEAnis!

We Pakistanis are known around the globe for our hospiTEAlity! The first item you are offered when you visit someone’s home is chai. Even when you are waiting for your turn at an office, you are asked whether you’d like a cup of tea.

When it pours, Pakistanis want tea, when it’s hot outside still we crave for a cup of warmth. In fact, those who are enthusiastic about weight reduction and diet have also incorporated green tea in their diet.

We are so head over heels for tea that we even want the desi beverage while abroad on vacations!

Pakistan- The Land of the Many Types of Tea!

What’s even more interesting is that everyone has their own favorite cup of tea. Some love tea without milk or sugar, while others prefer it cooked as ‘doodh-patti’. Many love the strong hit of ‘karak chai’ while there are those who crave chocolate tea.

Many may dislike elaichi in Biryani, but love the addition of it to our cardamom chai! Not to forget the ‘tarka’ masala tea brings, or the joy of drinking garam garam kaawa in the monsoon season.

The pink delight of Kashmiri chai is another favorite Pakistanis love to sip during festivals across town. To top it off, there’s even a thandi-thandi iced-tea for those who cannot stay away from the drink.

Every other day, a new type of tea is being made and served all across the country, but, the real reason why Pakistanis enjoy their cup is that their tea has been made with a blend which is pure, rich in taste and quality and comes from the very well reputed name Tapal.

Tapal – The Leading Brand

Tapal has various blends under its umbrella. Tapal’s Tezdum is for those who’d like a strong hit, Tapal Mezban for the people residing in Rural Sindh and preferring a premium Dust blend and the Green Tea line for the young energetic and health-conscious lot. Tapal’s Family Mixture and Tapal Danedar are all-time favorites that complete every family’s tea-time.

Keeping our tea culture in mind, Tapal has celebrated the achievements of brilliant Pakistanis over the span of 70 years of Independence. Now, the brand is back to celebrate independence by reminding Pakistanis about ‘#HamariNationaliTea’.

No matter where we are, be it the Pak-China border, deep-sea Gawadar, Astola Island, Murre or Nathiagali, Tapal will always remind us who with are with a sip of home every time we reach for our favorite drink!

Tapal’s Liveathon to Celebrate #HamariNationaliTea!

This independence, Tapal has decided to celebrate a united Pakistan and #HamariNationaliTea with a creative, out-of-the-box idea for a Liveathon.

This year we will see people across Pakistan paint the town ‘tea’ by going to their cities’ most famous landmarks and enjoying a hot cup of tea – a bond we all share!

What a great idea!

Its time to show how proud you are of your #HamariNationaliTea with Tapal!

Cricket camp 2019

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has extended a hand to 20 cricketers for a pre-season camp. These cricketers include the 14 centrally contracted men and 6 additional men.

The camp will be held at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Lahore on August 19. The first 2 days will go into fitness testing and will go on for 17 days until 7th September.

Former Pakistan Cricket Team skipper Misbah-ul-Haq will join in on the action as support for the NCA coaching staff.

During the camp, the players will be put through a number of fielding drills and net sessions, as well as fitness and other activities revolving around cricket.

On the other hand, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Abbas, Babar Azam, Imad Wasim, and Fakhar Zaman, have been exempted from the camp so that they can continue their contracts.

The 20-man camp will consist of:

  1. Abid Ali
  2. Asad Shafiq
  3. Azhar Ali
  4. Haris Sohail
  5. Hasan Ali
  6. Imam-ul-Haq

  10. Shaheen Shah Afridi
  11. Shan Masood

  15. Asif Ali
  16. Bilal Asif

  18. Mir Hamza
  19. Rahat Ali
  20. Zafar Gohar

Non-participating centrally contracted players: Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas, and Mohammad Amir.

This conditioning camp is of great significance. The players will undergo strenuous training sessions to prepare for a demanding season, which will see Pakistan spend 30 of their 42 cricket-playing days in Test cricket.

Misbah ul Haq, who has been Pakistan’s most successful captain, understands the arduous demands of the format in this day and age. With the advent of the World Test Championship, the PCB wants Pakistan to turn up with their best red ball game when they face Sri Lanka in the two-match Test series at home.

Ahead of the Sri Lanka series, these players will be a part of the initial rounds of what will be a highly competitive Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. So, this camp will further benefit them in gearing up for an exciting cricketing season.

As five players are already playing active cricket in England and Wales, we have given exemptions to them but they have been advised to return to Pakistan in time to be available for the first round matches of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. -Zakir Khan, Director International Cricket
