Asif Raza Mir Makes a Powerful Comeback in ‘Gangs of London’

Asif Raza Mir

Asif Raza Mir reprises his role as Asif Afridi in Season 3 of the British television series Gangs of London. A recently released teaser confirms his return, showing Asif lounging alone, possibly scheming fresh grabs for power.

While the teaser offers only a glimpse, fans eagerly anticipate what the Pakistani actor will bring to the screen this time.

Joe Cole, Sope Dirisu, and Michelle Fairley are also set to return, as confirmed alongside Mir. According to Deadline, the season’s synopsis reveals, “Chaos erupts in London after a spiked shipment of cocaine kills hundreds, bringing fan-favourite characters into conflict with new faces bound by blood ties. Brutal power struggles, unexpected alliances, and fierce rivalries emerge.”

The drama series has added new cast members, including Andrew Koji, Richard Dormer, and T’Nia Miller. Koji plays an assassin, Dormer takes on a significant role from the past, and Miller steps in as the new Mayor of London—a formidable obstacle for the gangsters.

Reflecting on the show in a 2020 interview with CTV, Mir described Gangs of London as a crime series that delves into family, emotions, and backstories. Comparing Pakistani productions to British ones, the 65-year-old actor noted that while Western media leans toward subtlety, Pakistani dramas tend to be more melodramatic and expressive.

Humaira Asghar Case: Shocking Details About Her Bank Accounts, Credit Cards, And CNIC Revealed

Humaira Asghar’s tragic and untimely death has left the entire nation in shock and grief. People across Pakistan are closely following the case and demanding answers about the cause of her sudden and silent passing. As a high-profile and sensitive case, the police continue to share new findings almost daily. Today, they revealed several important new details, raising hopes for a fair and transparent investigation.

According to the latest details shared by the police, Humaira Asghar carried two CNIC cards. One of them had been tampered with and showed a different date of birth. The tampered CNIC listed her birthdate as 10 October 1997, while the original one showed 10 October 1983. Humaira Asghar used the tampered CNIC for her showbiz activities.

The police revealed that Humaira Asghar’s personal bank account held Rs. 398,000.

Humaira Asghar’s stylist, Danish Maqsood, said he last contacted her on 2nd October to discuss and get approval for their photoshoot. Danish said, “We last contacted her after posting her photoshoot on our social media. When we tried to call her, the phone kept ringing but no one picked it up. Her last seen date was 7th October, but one thing I found quite strange was that her last seen and display picture disappeared after that. Later, we shared a post regarding her being missing. No one from the industry reached out, except Rabya Kulsoom, who asked about her. I felt that, somehow, she was being boycotted in the industry. No one was offering her work, and some people were even unhappy with me for working with her. After my shoot, I spoke to her—she seemed quite happy. I can’t share her voice notes because they were personal, but I can show the text messages.”

Ali Abbas Opens Up on Healing Rift with Father Waseem Abbas

Ali Abbas

Ali Abbas recently opened up about how he coped with his father Waseem Abbas’s second marriage to co-star Saba Hamid. Appearing on Excuse Me with Ahmad Ali Butt, Ali spoke about the anger he felt and the challenges of caring for his siblings during a difficult time in his childhood.

“When my father remarried, our bond broke,” Ali said. “I was around eleven or twelve and felt deeply upset.” As the eldest sibling, Ali stepped into a parental role, taking care of his two sisters and younger brother. “I knew my father would no longer have time for us, and my mother was already battling depression,” he added.

Waseem Abbas married actor Saba Hamid in 1993, who was divorced and had two children, Meesha and Faris Shafi. At the time, Ali feared the marriage would shift his father’s focus entirely to his new family.

Despite his resentment, Ali chose to act with maturity. “I’ve always tried to be part of the solution, not the problem,” he said. “I had to be there for my siblings. Though I developed a rift with my father, I later realised he was also a victim—caught in the middle, suffering in silence.”

Ali reflected on how men of his father’s generation rarely shared their emotions. “They kept their problems to themselves. That made it hard for us to understand them.”

Eventually, Ali chose empathy over anger. “My father had already married. It was done. But he was the one without peace. As his son, the least I could do was listen.”

Quoting something he had read, Ali said, “When someone is struggling, just let them talk. You can’t fix everything, but listening lightens their burden.” By opening up communication, Ali and his father began to rebuild their relationship. “He started sharing his problems with me,” Ali said. “Since then, we’ve developed a bond.”
