Asim Azhar speaks out about the Rajab Butt controversy
Pakistani singer Asim Azhar has issued a clarification following criticism over his cover version of the classic song Tu Hai Wohi Dil Ne Jise Apna Kaha and the controversy involving social media influencer Rajab Butt.
The singer’s rendition of the beloved track received mixed reactions on social media, with many users criticizing the performance and claiming that the original song had been ruined.
The controversy escalated after Rajab Butt posted a lip-sync video in support of the song. Asim Azhar thanked the influencer for the gesture, but his response drew further criticism from social media users, who questioned his decision to acknowledge the support.
Amid the growing backlash, Asim Azhar released a statement on Instagram, explaining that thanking someone and replying to an expression of appreciation does not imply that he shares the same views or values.
He stated that he understood the concerns raised by his fans and supporters and agreed with many of them, adding that his intention was simply to return kindness with kindness and that the matter was not as serious as it had been portrayed.
In a lighter remark, the singer urged fans to continue enjoying his new music and sweet mangoes. Despite the clarification, debate continues on social media.
Some fans believe the singer should not have accepted Rajab Butt’s support, while supporters of the influencer have criticized Asim Azhar for distancing himself after the public reaction.

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.
