Ali Gul Mallah: Fahad Mustafa’s Father Was My Marriage Guarantor

Renowned comedian Ali Gul Mallah, famous for his iconic “Bhale” dialogue in Ishq Murshid, recently shared his struggles in both his career and personal life. He revealed how girls’ families rejected his marriage proposals because of his acting career. However, he finally got married after Fahad Mustafa’s father vouched for him.

Ali Gul Mallah appeared on Mathira’s show, where he discussed his journey from hardship to success.

During the conversation, he shared, “I was born in Jacobabad, Sindh. I lost my mother when I was a child.” He explained that he had a sister, and after their mother’s passing, their father remarried and had more children.

Recalling his tough childhood, he said, “I was very close to my mother. After her death, my life changed. People started hitting, taunting, and ignoring me. That’s when I learned to bear my sorrows through comedy.”

Ali Gul Mallah admired film star Nadeem and decided to pursue acting after watching Dil Lagi. While working in a garage, he began imitating actors.

However, his challenges did not end there. He shared, “I performed in theatre plays in Jacobabad to earn money for tea and food. But poverty and people’s hatred pushed me to the point where I once tried to commit suicide.” Fortunately, theatre writer Hameed Bhutto saved his life and guided him.

In 1996, he moved to Karachi to pursue acting but faced extreme financial difficulties. “I couldn’t even afford 500 rupees per month to pay my flat rent,” he recalled.

Discussing his marriage struggles, he said, “My maternal uncles, who were also the girl’s parents, refused my marriage proposal because I was an actor.”

Determined to convince them, he said, “Since my maternal uncle admired Salahuddin Tunio, I took him along to propose.” Fahad Mustafa’s father then vouched for him, leading to his successful marriage. “Now, I have three children,” he added.

Talking about his family, he said, “My eldest son is studying cybersecurity at university, while my other son and daughter are in college. My youngest son has an interest in acting.”

Explaining his viral Bhale dialogue, he said, “I used to say ‘Bhale’ in my Sindhi comedy YouTube videos, and Ishq Murshid director Farooq Rind had seen those videos.”

He further shared how his role in the drama was unexpected: “Farooq Rind called me for a scene and told me my role wasn’t originally in the script. The script only mentioned a vegetable seller, and he wanted me to play the part using my Bhale dialogue.”

Ali Gul Mallah’s powerful delivery made the dialogue an instant hit. “People loved my dialogue, and from there, I reached new heights of fame and became loved all over the world,” he concluded.

Sanam Jung questions Karachi’s e-challan system after six traffic fines

Pakistani actor and television host Sanam Jung says she received six traffic e-challans within a month of returning to Pakistan, claiming that several were issued for violations she did not commit.

In an Instagram video, Sanam said the repeated fines had frustrated her family, particularly her father. She accepted responsibility for the first challan, which was issued for using a mobile phone while driving.

However, she disputed some of the later fines, including one for allegedly not wearing a seat belt. Sanam said fastening a seat belt had become a regular habit during her time abroad and insisted that she never begins driving without it.

Questioning the accuracy of the system, she expressed concern over being penalised for offences she says did not occur.

Tipu Sharif laments Karachi’s disappearing trees and shrinking green spaces

Actor Tipu Sharif has urged Karachi residents to plant more trees as rapid development continues to shrink the city’s green spaces.

Sharing an Instagram video of himself distributing plantation supplies, Sharif encouraged people to take part in tree-planting drives. He remarked that many graveyards now appear greener than residential areas and called for living spaces to be made equally green.

The actor warned that Karachi is losing trees at an alarming rate, leading to hotter streets, poorer air quality, less shade and fewer birds.

Referring to the monsoon season, Sharif said it presented the ideal opportunity to increase the city’s greenery. “The monsoon season is starting in Karachi. There’s no better time to start planting trees. I request you guys to fill Karachi’s roads, footpaths, and alleys. Please plant trees everywhere and increase greenery,” he said.

Highlighting the city’s rapid construction and property developments, the actor warned that continued deforestation could lead to serious environmental and health concerns. “In Karachi, there is not even two per cent of trees left and there’s construction and development happening. After a few years, we won’t even be able to breathe,” he stated.

Regarding his own efforts to combat the issue, Sharif shared that he had been distributing agricultural material across different parts of the city. “Today I am at the forestry nursery, taking 200 peepal trees to be planted in different areas, cemeteries, and places where greenery is lacking,” he said.

“Just think, people who have already passed away have greener surroundings in these cemeteries, while people living today don’t have clean air to breathe. Why is this?” the actor questioned.

Concluding his message, Sharif wrote, “Our one simple goal is to leave behind shade for people we’ll probably never meet. A tree planted today is a gift to future generations. Let’s stop turning Karachi into a concrete jungle and start bringing life back, one tree at a time.”

Sharif is known for his performances in dramas including Tapish, Humrahi, and Sitaron Se Agay. Along with advocating for environmental conservation, the actor also runs an advocacy page on Instagram addressing issues regarding animal abuse and sharing content about distributing food among the homeless.
