Sajal Aly Opens Up About the Freedom She Finds On Screen

One of Pakistan’s most celebrated actors, Sajal Aly, has shared a heartfelt glimpse into her relationship with acting, describing it as more than just a career; it is a space where she feels truly free to express herself.

During a recent masterclass hosted by renowned makeup artist and creative director Babar Zaheer, Sajal reflected on her journey in the entertainment industry and spoke candidly about the emotional connection she has developed with her craft over the years.

In an unreleased clip from the session that has since captured attention online, the actor revealed that she cannot imagine choosing any profession other than acting. According to Sajal, performing allows her to explore emotions and experiences that are often restricted by societal expectations.

She explained that many forms of self-expression can feel limited in everyday life, whether it is speaking openly, laughing freely, or displaying certain emotions without fear of judgment. Acting, she said, provides a rare opportunity to step beyond those boundaries and embrace different facets of human emotion.

For Sajal, the profession is not merely about playing characters on screen. It is a creative outlet that enables her to connect with feelings and perspectives that might otherwise remain unspoken. Her remarks struck a chord with fans, many of whom praised her honesty and admired the passion she continues to bring to her work.

The event generated further buzz when another clip surfaced on social media showing the actor revisiting one of the most memorable moments of her career. Sajal delighted attendees by singing the original soundtrack of her acclaimed drama O Rangreza, a song she first performed nearly a decade ago in 2017. The nostalgic performance quickly became a favorite among fans, who welcomed the chance to see a different side of the star.

Beyond discussions about acting, the masterclass also offered insights into the worlds of beauty, fashion, and creative expression. Sajal and Babar Zaheer engaged in conversations about makeup artistry, personal styling, and the artistic process behind creating memorable looks. Zaheer also spoke about his signature eye makeup techniques and his approach to fashion and beauty trends.

The admiration between the two creatives was evident throughout the event. Following the masterclass, Sajal shared a photograph with Zaheer on her Instagram Stories, accompanied by a simple yet meaningful message: “Proud of you,” showing her support for his work and achievements.

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.
