Students at Lahore University of Management Sciences went viral on Instagram for turning Justin Bieber's hit song into a qawwali. Traditionalists weren't too happy about it.
53-year-old Salem Bagga has Trump-like head of white hair, a result of albinism. He has now capitalised on his looks and serves a ‘Donald Trump kheer’.
The ad, which many saw as poorly timed and tone-deaf, was compared to a famous PIA ad from 1979 where a Boeing 747 cast its shadow over the New York Twin Towers.
Shoaib Akhtar and Shahid Kapoor seemed to interact in a casual manner at the International League T20 in Dubai, surrounded by enthusiastic fans at the event.

The attack on Chhayanaut, newspaper offices, and the public lynching of a Hindu man show that Bangladesh is heading toward Islamist rule, far removed from electoral democracy.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
If Pathaan gave both conservatives and liberals room to hide, Dhurandhar extends no such courtesy. Aditya Dhar ripped open that tent of hypocrisy and turned the knife.
The demolition of Ahmadi mosque in Daska is a living example of the state and its right-hand’s violence carried against the Ahmadiyya Community. The authorities and those in power have always been unsuccessful in protecting their citizens. These violent attacks will continue to occur if these issues and state protection is not provided to minorities.
Let us not forget,that the Sunni Muslim tyranny continues in Bangladesh and Pakistan against all minorities including shia muslims, let us also remember that while shias wanted Pakistan, it was the Sunnis who indulged in massacre of Hindus and Sikhs during partition
The Ahmadis and the Shias are the ones responsible for the creation of Pakistan. They were the ones who spewed venom on the Hindus and Sikhs and declared that the Muslim cannot live in a Hindu majority nation – the very basis for their demand of Partition.
Turns out Indian Shia Muslims and Ahmadis are doing really well in independent India. These two communities have taken advantage of modern secular education and progressed rapidly. They hardly face any discrimination in India.
But the nation they created for their fellow Muslim brethren treats them like outcastes.
Maybe they should introspect now and accept the grave mistakes they made in the pre-1947 era.
The Shias and the Ahmadis were the ones who led the Pakistan Movement. These two communities, relatively progressive and liberal when compared to Sunnis, took advantage of Western education and made rapid strides on the economic and social ladder during the pre-Partition era.
The idea of creating a separate homeland for Indian Muslims was propagated and led by these two communities. They provided the intellectual and political heft to the Pakistan Movement. The Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) was the centre of the Movement and was just as responsible for the partition of India. Though nowadays AMU students self-certify themselves as patriots (what a joke!).
Now that the Sunni Muslims are hounding the very same Shias and Ahmadis, life seems to have come a full circle. Every other day there are violent clashes resulting in substantial casualties to the Shia population. The Ahmadis have been declared as non-believers (Kafir) and hide their religious identity in public. Both Shias and Ahmadis have been subjected to state-sponsored persecution by radical Sunni clergymen and their lackeys.
This is poetic justice. Allah has seen their deeds and judged accordingly. Glory to him!
