When the going gets tough, the humor gets even better! As we wait anxiously for the results for the 2024 Pakistani Elections, the tension is palpable.

KARACHI: It’s been over 90 days since Israel began its genocide in Gaza. Day in and day out, hundreds of civilians are brutally killed, children are maimed and families are torn apart. And as the genocide rages on, Israel has waged a second war and that is against the journalists. In the past three months, 111 journalists have been killed in Gaza. That is more than the number killed in the 6 year long World War 2 and the 20 year long war in Vietnam.

KARACHI: Over the past two weeks, we have seen Israel carry out the worst atrocities in modern times. Despite being the aggressor in three different countries, the apartheid regime has successfully made itself into a victim in the public eye. While the older generation is more knowledgeable about previous attacks, the new generation finds most of their information on social media. And with thirst traps and TikTok trends, Israel has managed to humanize themselves and the IDF, despite their crimes.

KARACHI: The world is going through incredibly trying times. With a genocide taking place which has left over 4500 people dead, so far, people are using their platforms to stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine. A prime example of such people is Mehwish Hayat who took to the International Pakistan Prestige Awards (IPPA) stage to take a stand for Gaza. The IPPA 2023 event was held in Manchester last weekend and was a star studded event, complete with all the glitz and glamour.

KARACHI: Eleven years ago, the world watched in shock as a young girl, whose only crime was to ask for her fundamental right to education, was targeted and attacked. Eleven years later, that very girl refuses to stand up for the thousands of children who were and are in the same position as her. Targeted and killed, attacked and traumatized, the children of Gaza are helpless. So, why is Malala choosing to be neutral rather than calling out Israel for all their war crimes?

KARACHI: It’s been a a heartbreaking last ten days as the world watched in shock the events unfolding in Palestine. To add to the shock was the fact that seemingly educated personalities, who had a platform that could be used for good, chose to side with the aggressors. From Justin Bieber to Justin Trudeau to Kylie Jenner, numerous celebrities and leaders chose to ignore the war crimes and the killing of innocent people.

KARACHI: Perhaps one of the most intense cricket rivalries is the one between Pakistan and India. When the two face each other on the field, emotions run high. But surely, political antagonism should never make it onto the playing field, right? Last weekend, Pakistan faced India on the latter’s home ground for the 12th match of the World Cup and it became obvious that the Indians were in no mood to showcase sportsman spirit.

KARACHI: This year has been quite the year for Wahaj Ali. Ever since Tere Bin aired, he has become the new leading man in the industry with quite a few projects under his belt. However, what fans were not prepared for (but were very happy about) was for him to be paired with critically acclaimed powerhouse Sajal Aly. With just one picture and minimal information, fans were already incredibly hyped up about the pairing.

KARACHI: The past week has been plagued with one of the worst humanitarian crisis in Gaza. After continued aggression by Israeli settlers targeted the the Al Aqsa mosque, the third most religious Muslim site, Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel. The group managed to surpass one of the most well equipped intelligence agencies in the world but the consequences have been dire, with a war being waged against the people of Gaza.

KARACHI: It should come as no surprise that where there is a grand event, controversy follows! While the Lux Style Awards 2023 were the highlight of October, it seems as though not everyone was happy. Some of the biggest names in the industry took to social media to express their frustrations with the nominations (and lack of), the winners and the event itself! Here are some scathing comments against the awards from the likes of Sajal Aly, Farhan Saeed and Mushk Kaleem.
