Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5 Leaked: We Might Know Who Dies Next!

Game of Thrones Season 8 remake

Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5 leak is driving everyone bonkers!

Reportedly, both episodes 5 and 6 plot details have been leaked on social media, indicating the possible deaths of the characters, we love (and hate) the most.

Here’s what we think can happen:

Plot #1- Arya to Kill the Mad Queen 

Taking a recap, the Red Priestess told Arya that she will be the end of three lives, “Brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes. Eyes you’ll shut forever.” If we take a gander of what has happened, Arya killed Walder Frey (brown eyes) and the Night King (blue eyes) which means now she is to kill someone with green eyes.

A fan has pointed out that the next name on Arya’s list is Daenerys aka Khaleesi (who has green eyes!). There’s a possibility that Arya might go after the Mother of Dragons when she turns into the ‘Mad Queen’, not to forget she has lost Missandei and 2 of her dragons.

Another theory is that since everyone now knows Jon’s secret (he being the heir to the throne) and being a little coo-coo in the noggin, Danerys may plan to kill Jon for the throne but Arya will get to her before she has a chance to slit his throat.

On the other hand, there’s a fair chance that Danerys might be slain after she claims the throne and does rule the kingdom as the Mad Queen everyone fears she is becoming.

Plot #2- Return of Rhaegal

A clue in the season eight, episode five trailer has teased Rhaegal might be about to make a shocking comeback. Lets back up, Rhaegal was shot with a spear by Enron Greyjoy, giving Cersei a leveled battleground to take on Danerys for the ultimate fight to win the throne.

The trailer for episode 5 ends with Enron worried as if he were staring at death right in the eyes while looking towards the sky, which hints at the possibility of Rhaegal coming back to haunt the ‘world’s most horrible uncle’.

Plot #3- Danerys to be the End of Jon Snow

Looks like Jon Snow has become the unwanted hurdle between Danerys and the throne. Since Jon’s secret is already out, fans have a crazy theory that Danerys will kill (or plan to kill) him. She might be planning to take care of him after they take Cersei down once and for all.

Plot #4-  Jamie & Cersei Die Together

Danerys has gone loco and has turned most of King’s Landing into a roasted dessert. Watching her transformation as she turns into the Mad Queen, Tyrion realizes that the only way he can save his sibling is to set Jamie free.

However, Jamie has a head-on battle with Euron, eventually killing him but being brutally injured in the process. He somehow makes his way to Cersei where they both die together. Cersei might either die by Danerys or might just kill herself in goodwill to be with the only man (*cough* brother) she has ever loved.

Plot #5- Jon Kills Danerys

Danerys might throw Tyrion in the dungeon for freeing Jamie, to which he tries to explain to Jon that his family will always be a threat to the throne. To this Jon realizes what Danerys is becoming and while he gives her his pledge, he might just also plunge a dagger in her heart (if Arya doesn’t kill her first). There is a possibility that it might be Arya in the form of Snow that kills her.

Plot #6- Bran Becomes the King 

With Cersei and Daenerys dead, a council is formed in which Tyrion announces that Bran is now the new King.

Epilogue

In a nutshell, Jon once again takes the black as a punishment for killing Daenerys, Arya leaves, Sansa rules the North, Bran becomes King and oversees the council which now consists of Tyrion, Davos, Sam, and Bronn.

Deaths in Game of Thrones Season 8

Varys- Will die for betraying Daenerys

Euron- Jamie will kill Euron

The Hound and Mountain- Kill each other in a faceoff

Jaime- Dies of injuries suffered from in match against Euron and will die with Cersei

Cersei- Despite everything she has done to survive, the wicked queen will die with her brother, also her lover

Tyrion- The dwarf is arrested for betraying Daenerys by freeing Jamie. This means that he will get a trial, which is supposedly going to happen in the Dragon Pit in which there’s a tall, we mean a big possibility that he also dies.

Danerys- Mad Queen will either be killed by Jon or Arya, reportedly as she’s dying, Dany supposedly touches the Iron Throne, which was destroyed in the battle. Drogo will fly away with her body at the end.

Jon Snow- Jony boy might bid farewell after all as Kit Harrington has reportedly shot two different endings, one which hints he will join the Night Watch again, but then again, there’s no Night King anymore!

How to Get New Currency Notes in Pakistan

The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has announced the issuance of fresh currency notes to the general public from May 20 to May 31, 2019, to exchange with old ones for Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations.

As per the notification, citizens can send a message to 8877 along with his CNIC number and branch code of the selected bank.

Fresh notes are available from designated commercial bank branches called “e-branches” and the 16 field offices of SBP BSC?

The service will be provided through 1,700 e-branches in 142 cities across Pakistan to ensure maximum geographical coverage.

How to Get Fresh Notes from Banks– Mobile SMS

  • Issuance of fresh currency is also available through a Mobile SMS service.
  • The charges for the service are Rs. 2 plus tax/SMS.
  • Under this facility, a person may send an SMS message comprising his/her 13 digits CNIC/Smart Card number along with the desired e-branch ID [e.g. 3130205839863(space)KHI005] to short code 8877.
  • An SMS will be received that will contain the redemption code, code validity period and the e-branch address. The validity of the redemption code is for two working days as per
    the mentioned dates in the SMS.
  • Once the SMS is received, you can then approach the concerned e-branch along with your original CNIC/Smart Card, a photocopy of the CNIC/Smart Card and transaction code received from 8877 to obtain fresh currency notes

Keep in mind though that you can only obtain:

  • three (03) packets of Rs.10/-
  • one (01) packet each of Rs. 50/- & Rs. 100/- as per availability of stock.

*In case of any questions or queries, contact: 021-111-000-8877

So what are you waiting? Go ahead and get those new currency notes – after all, Eid is just a few days away!

Happy Eid in advance!

game of thrones actors pay

The popular HBO show Game of Thrones has people swooning over it from all around the world.

Everyone seems to be busy guessing the pay of Game of Thrones Actors. Well, guess no more and read on to find out more!

The story and characters are equally captivating and engaging for the audiences. The characters have been so real for us that we have felt, lived, and strongly related to their struggles.

Well… except for Ned Stark and his beheading, but you get the point.

The final season, season 8 had been much awaited for.

Game of Thrones Final Season: Brands Get Creative With Out-of-the-Box Campaigns!

Apparently, it has been disappointing for the audiences, but it has still kept people up all night just to find the best streaming link and watch it.

Did you ever wonder though, while watching an episode or two, how much does the show pay its actors?

Here’s how much Game of Thrones Actors Make per Episode:

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (USD 500,000)

Our beloved (?) Jaime Lannister. God knows we have hated that guy but every time he was in a battle we have prayed he survive and finally do something about his chemistry with Brienne (spoiler S8E4).

Nikolaj gets a whopping USD 500,000 per episode for the entire season 8, which amounts to a little over PKR 7 crores.

 

Peter Dinklage (USD 500,000)

The wisest man alive, Tyrion Lannister, whom we expect to die this season is played by Peter Dinklage, also making PKR 7 crore per episode.

 

Emilia Clarke (USD 500,000)

Mother of dragons, breaker and chains and all of that, Danny is played by Emilia Clarke who is also categorized as tier A actor.

Hence, she makes $500,000, the same as the Lannisters and the other Targareon.

 

Cheetay.Pk’s Campaign ft. Pakistan’s Tyrion Lannister aka Rozi Khan Goes Viral!

Kit Harrington (USD 500,000)

Kit Harrington knows nothing. Or was it Jon Snow? Same difference!

If you are a true fan, you know he is the other Targareon. If you do not, well, tough luck. He is making an estimated PKR 7 crore per episode to ride a dragon.

Lena Headey (USD 500,000)

Whether Cersei is pregnant with Jaime’s kid or not, she sure knows how to bargain. Looks like she taught that to Lena, too.

The actor has successfully bargained her pay as well and took it to $500,000 per episode (around PKR 7 crore).

 

Maisie Williams (USD 150,000)

A girl has no name but a girl makes a truckload of money!

She killed the Night King for us and also makes a little above PKR 2 crore rupees per episode. Maisie Williams, we are counting on you to make Cersei’s death climactic.

Sophie Turner (USD 150,000)

Sansa grew from a girl interested in stitching and being a wife to her sweetheart to a leader of the North.

Such character development was executed wonderfully by Sophie Turner. Her making PKR 2crore ($150,000) for one episode is justified.

Are you surprised by the numbers these stars are making? Or did you expect nothing less?

uniform syllabus in paksitan

The federal cabinet has approved a uniform curriculum for all educational institutes in Pakistan, including 30,000 madrassahs. This decision was made on Tuesday during a meeting.

Furthermore, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Information and Broadcasting Firdous Ashiq Awan, while addressing a press conference shared that the cabinet has made the decision of uniform syllabus.

It is the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan to enforce a uniform curriculum across the country – Ms Awan

Ms Awan was accompanied by Federal Minister for Energy Umar Ayub.

The government will also monitor bank transactions and foreign funding of religious seminaries -She Added

A uniform syllabus has been of interest from the time of former president retired Gen Pervez Musharraf. Many attempts have been made to bring the religious seminaries under the ambit of the government and other institutes all across the country, but never succeeded.

Discussion on load-shedding and renewal of licenses of the cell phone companies were also discussed at the occasion.

We have now to see how the new decision is implemented and what is yet to come.

The famous Lahore-based actor, rapper, and songwriter Faris Shafi recently took to Twitter to request that his song be removed from Lux Style Awards 2019 nominations.

It is to be noted that Faris is Meesha Shafi’s bother and has withdrawn his award in light of the ongoing LSA 2019 controversy, involving the Meesha-Ali Zafar harassment case.

Other celebrities including Meesha Shafi, Eman Suleman, The Sketches, Generation, Saima Bargfrede, Fatima Nasir, and Jami also announced their rejections of LSA 2019 earlier.

Jami even went so far as to throw his awards on the street.

Shafi’s track, ‘Clap’ was nominated by Lux Style Awards 2019 for Best Song.

Faris Shafi and Talal Qureshi were both part of it, so Shafi also rejected the nomination on behalf of Talal.

Here’s what Faris stated:

“Talal Qureshi and I are neither attending, nor endorsing the awards.” 

You can watch their song, Clap here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do3v9yy_d3I

Last year, Ali Zafar faced backlash after he was accused of undermining Faris Shafi’s song on Patari.

In an interview to The Express Tribune earlier, Shafi had said that he wrote about all the things Pakistan is being forced to go through every day.

It seems that he is acting upon the same by withdrawing from LSA 2019 nominations and refusing to share the stage with an alleged harasser.

Nestlé & Akhuwat Join Hands to Empower BISP Beneficiaries

By
Press Release

nestle

In developing countries, where the population is largely undocumented, unbanked and does not possess credit history nor the ability to provide collateral, the rural segment of the population’s ability to avail access to formal lending is thereby, limited.

According to the World Bank Global Findex Report, nearly 1.7 billion adults remain unbanked and have no access to formal financial services. It is also pertinent to mention that the gender gap in terms of bank accounts is high in developing countries like Pakistan.

Recently, Nestlé Pakistan and Akhuwat partnered to empower Nestlé’s Rural Women Sales Agents enrolled under the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP).

A Memorandum of Understanding was signed under which, Nestlé has provided a grant of PKR 2 million to Akhuwat to extend interest-free loans to Nestlé-affiliated BISP beneficiaries in expanding their businesses, in districts of Renala, Okara, Sheikhupura and Pindi Bhattian.

Through this partnership with Akhuwat and BISP, Nestlé Pakistan has paved the way in working towards contributing to the goals of the National Financial Inclusion Strategy, which lays out the national vision, framework, action plan and targets for financial inclusion in Pakistan.

In contrast, with conventional lending, difficulties in loan procedures include the provision of collateral, loan documentation and processing time and traveling a long distance from the village to withdraw the disbursement amount in cash.

In order to support the development of socially sustainable enterprises, Nestlé Pakistan has facilitated its BISP beneficiary base through the provision of interest-free, micro-finance lending which provides the beneficiaries with the financial muscle to build upon their enterprise while at the same time, ensuring ease of repayment of the loan,

“Today is a big day for our Rural Women Sales Agents. The Nestlé-Akhuwat partnership will allow our Sales Agents to avail interest-free micro-loan facility. It has been proven time and time again, that when women have the power to make, spend, save, and control their own money, they make gains not only for themselves but also for their families and communities”, said Freda Duplan, CEO Nestlé Pakistan.

Nestlé’s BISP Rural Women Sales Program focuses on graduating women benefiting from BISP out-of poverty. The program is based on Public Private Partnership that emphasizes on creating sustainable solutions for addressing some of the key issues being faced by rural women in Pakistan such as malnutrition and lack of livelihood opportunities. It has to date graduated 500 beneficiaries and this number will increase to 5,000 in the next three to four years.

Dr. Amjad Saqib, CEO Akhuwat, while sharing his views said, “We are glad to partner with Nestle and are confident that it will enable women under Nestlé’s BISP Rural Women Sales Program scale up their entrepreneurial ventures and eventually graduate out of poverty.”

Waqar Ahmad, Head of Corporate Affairs, Nestlé Pakistan, said, “Our philosophy of creating shared value (CSV) is unique and a long term approach through collective action, partnerships and support of stakeholders can generate sustainable economic value, in line with UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.”

“The Nestlé-Akhuwat partnership is a transformative collaboration which will help us build rural women as social entrepreneurs with Akhuwat over the next three years and enhance Nestlé’s BISP beneficiary base,” he added.

Nestlé Pakistan partnered with Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) in 2017 to provide livelihood opportunities to BISP beneficiaries. The Nestlé BISP Rural Women Livelihood Program has enabled BISP beneficiaries, often referred to as “poorest of the poor” women, to earn a livelihood for themselves and their families. It is a successful Public Private Partnership model aiming to create a sustainable solution towards addressing some of the key issues like malnutrition, financial exclusion, and lack of livelihood opportunities that rural women face in Pakistan. To date, more than 500 BISP beneficiaries have been enrolled as Rural Sales Agents across 12 districts of Punjab and Sindh. Furthermore, Nestlé Pakistan is empowering BISP beneficiaries through improving their nutrition knowledge and has reached out to more than 1000 BISP beneficiaries in 2018.

Nestlé- Akhuwat partnership will help improve access to finance in rural areas for rural women, thereby reducing inequalities and supporting UN Sustainable Development Goals.

 

 

 

Nasir Khanjan Responds to Samaa TV Anchor’s Rude Behavior During Morning Show

By

The social media sensation, Nasir Khanjan was recently invited to Samaa TV’s Morning show ‘Naya Din’.

Apparently, things went south after the morning show’s anchor made him uncomfortable by badgering him with demeaning questions and statements.

It is no secret that Nasir Khanjan remains controversial for videos which are often deemed “against the cultural norms of the society’.

Consequently, he was invited to attend Naya Din for an interview and the host, Muhammad Shuaeb questioned Khanjan for a contentious video that went viral on the internet.

Calling it ‘vulgar’, the anchor seemingly adopted a bullying tone to school Nasir for posting it on social media.

Watch the clip going viral for yourself here.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr7vBVAFA_g

However, Nasir remained cool and replied to the accusations without losing his calm.

Nasir Khanjan Breaks Silence

Thanking his fans for the support, Nasir stated that he felt insulted and had no clue about the questions beforehand.

He added that it is important for channels to treat their guest respectfully and promote them in a positive manner.

"مجھے معلوم نہیں تھا ایسے سوالات بھی پوچھیں گے"

Posted by Independent Urdu on Tuesday, May 7, 2019

Here’s What Samaa TV Anchor Has to Say

Meanwhile, the host Shuaeb released a statement on Twitter claiming that silence is his best response and schooled haters for watching the complete show.

Social media is furious over the trending clip!

Here’s how Twitter is reacting over the entire fiasco.

A protest has started against the male host, Shuaeb.

And fans want him to apologize to Khanjan.

Other Pakistani journalists and media personalities were also spotted criticizing the anchor.

This is not the first time that personalities have been targeted by hosts on the show.

In 2016, Aamir Liaquat came under fire after he humiliated the ‘Eye to Eye’ singer, Taher Shah on his Ramadan show.

A year later, Aamir also faced backlash for inviting Meera and mocking her live on television.

Sham Idrees Exposes Zaid Ali, Shahveer Jafry & Ducky Bhai in Latest Video

The war amongst YouTube vloggers in Pakistan is showing no signs of ending anytime soon.

Last weekend, the mob attack on Sham & Froggy created a massive social media frenzy.

While Pakistan’s YouTubers fraternity condemned the attack, Froggy openly bashed Ducky Bhai and accused him of inciting violence amongst his fans.

https://youtu.be/JKsXLec5sac

Meanwhile, the drama took a whole new turn after eye-witnesses accused Froggy of lying about receiving a punch at the meet and greet

Sham Idrees & Wife Froggy Mob Attack: Here’s What YouTubers Are Saying!

Seemingly frustrated with all the hate, Sham rolled out a video to lash out at Shahveer Jafry, Zaid Ali, Rahim Pardesi, Mooro and Ducky Bhai.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcqZgVKfSLA

Sham Calls Zaid Ali the Real Culprit & a Deceit

Zaid Ali was also part of Sham’s roast video and labeled him as a liar. He also leaked Zaid’s phone call in the video. You can listen to the leaked calls in the video posted above.

Zaid Ali is yet to reply to Sham’s accusations.

Sham & Shaveer Jaffry’s War in Full Swing

We all know how Sham Idrees & Shahveer Jafry were best friends. However, a fued between the pair over Ducky Bhai ended their partnership forever.

In his latest video, he accused Shahveer of copying and stealing his ideas.

After his video, Shahveer took to Twitter and wrote ‘Sham hates me’

Sham Hits Back at Rahim Pardesi

Yesterday, Rahim Pardesi made a video to expose Froggy’s lie about getting hit at the mob attack.

https://youtu.be/jx7BLN0UCEw

Here’s what Sham replied to Rahim in his video

Sham’s Message to Mooroo

Clearly, Sham is irked at how Mooroo sat down with Ducky Bhai to make a video against him.  Mooroo also stated that he is sad that how Froggy is receiving all the hate due to Sham.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xujso4BCa4

And now Sham has finally broken silence over Mooroo’s statement.

This battle has reached an all-time high!

Sham ended the video stating that there is a malign campaign against him that is in full swing by his rivals and called himself a bigger YouTuber than the rest.

Let’s hope these YouTubers settle their differences once and for all.

Schengen Visa Costs Expected to go up by Year End

By

schengen visa

A proposal by the EU Commission to amend the Schengen Visa policy has now been formally adopted by the European Parliament.

Increasing Schengen visa cost is also a part of the changes given in the proposal.

If the Council approves the amendment within the next two months, all visa applicants will be required to pay a fee of €80 instead of €60 by the end of 2019.

This Pakistani Travel Enthusiast Will Inspire You to Travel Across the World

It is believed that the move will encourage tourism and help the region respond to security challenges in a better way.

The decision has been welcomed by EU Commissioner for Home Affairs, Migration and Citizenship Dimitris Avramopoulos.

The new rules will facilitate tourism, trade and business while enhancing our security standards to detect those who pose a threat or have no right to enter the EU. They will also help improve cooperation with non-EU countries on the return and readmission of irregular migrants- Avramopoulos said.

The press release from the European Commission reads:

Whilst EU Member States are among the world’s leading tourist destinations, lengthy and cumbersome procedures can deter tourists from travelling to Europe, redirecting investment and spending to other countries and affecting the EU’s economy negatively.

At the same time, the benefits of visa travel need to be balanced with measures to adequately respond to present and future security and migration challenges.

Schengen Area includes the following 26 European countries:

  1. Austria
  2. Belgium
  3. Czech Republic
  4. Denmark
  5. Estonia
  6. Finland
  7. France
  8. Germany
  9. Greece
  10. Hungary
  11. Iceland
  12. Italy
  13. Latvia
  14. Liechtenstein
  15. Lithuania
  16. Luxembourg
  17. Malta
  18. Netherlands
  19. Norway
  20. Poland
  21. Portugal
  22. Slovakia
  23. Slovenia
  24. Spain
  25. Sweden
  26. Switzerland

The above-mentioned countries eliminated their internal borders to allow free and harmonious movement of people.

They share common regulations for controlling external borders, which helps them battle crime by strengthening the common judicial system and police cooperation.

It also asserts that the benefits of visa travel need to be balanced to adequately respond to security challenges.

Are any Schengen area countries part of your next travel plan? We hope this information will help you prepare for your next excursion better!

The Future of Digital Payment Services at Momentum Conference 2019

By
Press Release

The Momentum Tech Conference is a two-day conference focused on the technology, digital, and entrepreneurial ecosystem of Pakistan. Participants have the opportunity to see different startups showcased, attend workshops, partake in hackathons, and attend keynote sessions and panel discussions.

Investors, tech enthusiasts, and experts from local and global organizations engaged the audience on the latest disruptive and innovative technologies.

Nadeem Shaikh, the newly appointed President of Digital Financial Services for VEON, is a global leader, innovator, and entrepreneur with over 25 years’ experience in the areas of technology, financial services, and has worked in private equity. During Momentum’s closing day, he took to the stage to talk about the future of digital payment services and what needs to be done in ensuring that a sustainable financial ecosystem is developed through local talent in Pakistan.

Shaikh’s extensive fintech experience, including his role as Founder and CEO of Anthemis Group, a global financial services group, not only allows him to find better ways to deliver financial products to Pakistan’s almost 79% unbanked adults, but also guide upcoming, local fintechs in providing services that help today’s tech-savvy customers manage their finances better.

“People need to stop talking about international financial solutions and other successful startups, and focus on writing their own local stories,” Shaikh emphasized

He highlighted the importance of developing an all-inclusive, truly digital financial solution. The solution, according to Shaikh, lies in looking at all aspects of the customers’ life and then using technology to leapfrog the barriers that are holding the digitally excluded back. These elements combined can lead to a state of ‘Financial Wellness’ which has the tremendous potential to transform lives.

“In the end, it is not about selling a product or a service, but about building a solution to every individual’s need,” Nadeem Shaikh.

JazzCash is currently looking to do all that; providing each individual a form of financial solution they require on the road to financial wellness. Today, JazzCash has over 5 million mobile wallets and 80,000+ trusted brands and small and medium-sized companies are a part of the growing network.

As per the World Bank, Pakistan is one of the 11 countries contributing to the next billion new internet users. Couple this with a growing youth population, a surging middle class of about 50 million, and a trajectory towards urbanization, the time is now right for the adoption of mobile banking technologies vertically across all strata to lead Pakistan and its population into a cashless and financially stable future.

Pakola to Launch Pure Drinking Water

pakola

Pakola has long been one of Pakistan’s most popular local drinks.

In 1950, the founder Haji Ali Muhammad launched the country’s first soft drink brand and its tagline ‘Dil Bola Pakola’ became a national sensation.

Over the years, the company has extended its product portfolio and has launched variants like Pakola Orange, Pakola Lychee, Pakola Raspberry, Pakola Fresh Lime, and Pakola Vino.

However, the manufacturers of Pakola ‘Mehran Bottlers’ are now planning to take a giant leap in the beverage industry and are launching a new brand.

Pakola has been teasing the new product on its social media and from the looks of it, the new entrant is “Pure Drinking Water”

The video showcases a bottle with a flowing waterfall, signifying that a water brand is on its way.

Pakistanis were quick to guess the hint on Pakola’s Facebook page.

However, some marketing critics on the Facebook group ‘Khalid Alvi Marketing Next’ pointed out that the creative concept is old and copied.

It is to be noted that prominent brands like Aquafina, Dasani, and Nestle already dominate the bottled water market in Pakistan.

Pakola will have to use strong promotional strategies to earn a chunk in the market. However, Pakistanis are loyal to the green-colored soda brand and chances are high that fans would trust in the credibility of its bottled water.

Will Pakola struggle or will it be successful in winning the hearts of the market? Let’s wait and watch.

We have reached out to Pakola for a statement over the matter and are awaiting their response.

This is a developing story.

Just heard about the assault on Froggy at Sham’s meet & greet today. This type of disgusting behavior should never be tolerated at any cost, especially on a woman. Fans should enjoy the occasion by staying in their limits. This is not what I or any other YouTuber encourage to do.

shahid afridi

The legendary cricketer, Shahid Afridi is one of the most popular and controversial Pakistani sportsmen worldwide.

With a career that lasted over twenty years, he holds the distinction of having hit the most number of sixes in the history of ODI cricket.

The player recently released his biography called Game Changer on April 30.

Game Changer Controversy: Gautam Gambhir Hits Back at Afridi

 

Authored by Wajahat S. Khan, the book is an intriguing memoir of Afridi’s life as a cricketer and his thoughts on the future of Pakistan.

One of the many things that caught the media’s attention is his ruling about his daughters only playing indoor sports.

In Game Changer, Shahid Afridi said that he will not allow his daughters to play Cricket or any outdoor sport for that matter.

Afridi has four daughters, namely Aqsa, Asmara, Ansha, and Ajwa.

He said his girls have permission to play any sport they like, as long as it is indoors.

He also added that they will not be allowed to play Cricket and other outdoor sports owing to social and religious reasons.

“Aqsa is in the 10th grade, Ansha is in the ninth. They’re both great at sports and even better in academics”

“Ajwa and Asmara are the youngest and love to play dress-up. They have my permission to play any sport, as long as they’re indoors. Cricket? No, not for my girls. 

Well aware of the kind of response he will probably receive from feminists on his stance, he lashes out at feminists and further adds:

“It’s for social and religious reasons that I’ve made this decision and their mother agrees with me. The feminists can say what they want; as a conservative Pakistani father, I’ve made my decision” 

Game Changer: Shahid Afridi’s Biography to be First Released in India

Of course, Twitter has a lot to say about this.

All kinds of labels like hypocrite, misogynist are being put on him for this.

 

Does this make him a protective, caring father or an overly conservative one? What do you think?

Let us know what you think about his decision as a father in the comments below.

Apple’s Secret Plan to Dethrone WhatsApp in Works: Report

Apple vs WhatsApp

WhatsApp is one of the biggest social platforms used to communicate with loved ones all around the world. Apple has a similar platform which offers fewer features called iMessages.

Apple is reportedly working on improving its iMessage service by bringing in more features to give WhatsApp tough competition. Since WhatsApp has been the more dominating application on both Android and iPhone, the brand will have to bring in a winning strategy.

Bloomberg shares that Apple iMessage is likely to receive a new update soon in which users will have the option to keep a display image and name. With WWDC hardly a month away, Apple might announce this exciting news at the platform.

Instagram & Snapchat Likely to Restrict Screenshots After WhatsApp

Furthermore, the reports suggest that iMessage is also expected to get a “dedicated menu in the conversation view to send sticker versions of Animojis.” The features are expected to be rolled out for MacOS and WatchOS as well.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has also called Apple’s iMessage feature the “biggest competition” to the world’s biggest social media platform. He added, “Apple bundles iMessage as the default text app and it’s still ahead.”

If Apple does have a secret plan to dethrone WhatsApp, we wonder how will the Facebook-owned platform give their rival a tough time ahead.

We will find out soon enough.
