Go local: Celebs support Karachi se Lahore in quirky video messages

Posted By: Unknown on 03:33

With the release of upcoming comedy Karachi se Lahore right around the corner, the movie's Instagram account is being flooded with videos of the rich and famous showcasing their encouragement.

Who wouldn't want to watch a movie recommended by Imran Abbas, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Saleem Sheikh, among others?

Some of our favourite local stars may have moved to Bollywood but that doesn't mean they don't support the Pakistani film fraternity anymore!

Ali Zafar apparently can't resist item numbers.

Imran Abbas takes out the time to send best wishes while promoting his soon to be released movie Jaanisar.

No post about encouraging our movie industry is complete without a mention of Hamza Ali Abbasi obviously!

The cast joined in on the fun too!

Javed Sheikh puts a PTI spin to his video:

Momal Sheikh says Pakistan zindabad!

We wonder who texted Sanam Jung in the middle of her video...

Humayun Saeed urges fans to make Karachi se Lahore a success just like Bin Roye and Wrong Number!

Television starlet Hareem Farooq is certain the movie's an entertainer!

Adorable couple Shahroz Sabzwari and his wife, Syra Shahroz are also going to be there.

Karachi se Lahore is slated for release on July 31; clearly, the premiere is going to be one star-studded affair!

5 kinds of people you Should want to meet at iftar parties

Posted By: Unknown on 08:12

‘Tis the season for Iftaris. And there, we meet all kinds.

See if you can identify with the following types of people:

1. The kitty party aunty

She is immaculately dressed in the latest attire, most probably donned in cigarette pants and a short kurti whether it suits her or not. Her sole purpose to be at the iftar is to show off her latest Sana Safinaz jora. She sweeps back her perfectly blow-dried hair with her neatly manicured fingers to flash her shiny trinkets, and carefully perches the dupatta on her head when the Maghrib azaan is heard, making sure her hair doesn’t ruin. She gives all the other women a body check and weighs their fashion against hers with smug satisfaction.

2. The flustered hostess

She has big shoes to fill. The last iftari she was invited to was her sister-in-law’s, which had three different kinds of samosas, four kinds sharbat, five types of chaats and seven kinds of fried savouries, dinner was more like a buffet with a multitude of dishes. She has to outdo or do just as much to prove her standing in the khandaan; the main reason why she had to host the event. She is seen frantically running around getting last minute food items on the table and faking a smile as she flitters from the hot kitchen to the air-conditioned living room.

3. The well-connected middle-aged businessman

He is as boastful as his wide waistline and can hardly keep blabbering his credentials to everyone in the room. He is full of anecdotes for the young ones venturing into the world of business and is a pseudo know-all. All the big projects signed in our country thus far have been because of him, and claims to have connections and yaari with every bigwig in Pakistan. He has a big appetite – a nightmare for the hostess – always demanding piping hot tea at the wrong time. He is closely guarded by the quiet but well-maintained trophy wife.

4. The bored teenager forced to come

No matter how many times his mother pesters him (politely while giving him the death stare) to get up for Maghrib, he continues to make faces for a Snapchat click and captions it “bored, dying!” He nibbles on the iftar, and rushes out right after opening his roza to meet his friends.

5. The human questionnaire

From the moment the iftar begins till moment it ends, this person refuses to leave your side. A more adequate name would be chipkoo. You won’t even have the privilege to take a bite of the pakora in peace without answering the endless questions you’re badgered with. From your work to your weight, age and marital status, this person wants to poke their nose into everything and anything. Best to stay on the other side of the room to avoid being hounded.

Versace's new collection inspired by Pakistan's national dress

KARACHI: Seems like the West just can’t stop drawing inspiration from us. Italian designer Donatella Versace is no different. The designer recently unveiled her menswear collection for Spring/Summer 2016 in Milan, surprisingly, much of which was inspired from shalwar kameez.
Versace’s attempts to play with lengths, layers and proportions made a seemingly interesting collection but one that had a strong resemblance to the Pakistani national dress.

Although many took a liking to the ‘new trend’, this is not the first time a designer from the west has drawn inspiration from our traditional dress.

Just last month, fashion bloggers, stylists, and prominent members of the fashion industry were talking about the ‘dress over pants’ trend, which Pakistanis have been sporting for as long as we can remember.

Kendall Jenner — known for wearing outfits revealing her toned body and legs — in a recent public appearance wore the ‘dress over pants’, revealing just her arms and managing to look effortlessly chic.

Similarly, Emma Watson too opted for the trend for the Golden Globe Awards earlier this year as she donned a floor length Christian Dior dress paired with a pair of black pants.

Many western designers have drawn inspiration from Pakistani outfits and used it in their designs, which have graced runways in recent times.
