Hassan Ali is a talented and celebrated Pakistani cricketer known for his exceptional bowling skills and energetic on-field persona. A right-arm fast bowler, he has achieved several milestones throughout his career. Hassan was a key member of Pakistan’s victorious 2017 ICC Champions Trophy squad, with his most memorable performance being figures of 3/19 against India in the tournament final. Another major highlight was his brilliant five-wicket haul against South Africa during the 2021 Test series. He has also been an active player in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and recently made his comeback to the national team.

Hassan Ali has been married to Samiyah Khan for around five years, and they have three adorable children: daughters Helena and Hazel, and their youngest son, Hamdan. A few days ago, the family spent a wonderful vacation in Murree and Nathia Gali. However, a cryptic post by the cricketer’s wife has now sparked cheating rumors.

Samiyah Khan posted a story calling out women who target married men for financial gain. She wrote: “Curse on the women who get into relationships with married men who have kids, thinking that one day these men will marry them.” (“Shadi shuda bacho ke baap se jo ladkia paiso ke liye relationship banati hai ye soch kar ki ek din shayad ye admi unse shadi kar lega, lanat hai aisi ladkio par.”)

Not only this, she has removed each picture from her mobile, initially she also unfollwed her husband later on ended up again following him, Samiyah Khan also later deleted her stories.

Social media users are criticizing Samiyah Khan for only targeting the women who go after married men. They say her husband is equally responsible for cheating on her, so she should blame him as well, not just the other woman. Many comments pointed out that despite having average looks, these cricketers have the confidence to cheat on their beautiful wives, with users wishing the best for every woman. Others added that these players seem to do nothing but flirt with other women, even after becoming parents of multiple children.

Iqrar Ul Hassan Syed is a former Pakistani anchor, host, and crime reporter, widely known for his investigative show Sar-e-Aam. Besides this, Iqrar Ul Hassan is also famous for hosting Shaan-e-Ramzan and several other marathon transmissions. Nowadays, he is actively taking part in politics. Iqrar Ul Hassan has always been a controversial media figure due to his multiple marriages to exceptionally talented and independent women, including Qurat Ul Ain Iqrar, Farah Yousaf, and Aroosa Khan.

Recently, Iqrar Ul Hassan appeared on Daily Pakistan Global’s podcast, where he gave a statement about the dynamics of love between him and his wives.

Replying to the host’s assertive statement that he loves Farah the most, Iqrar Ul Hassan said, “I won’t say which wife I love the most; it will cause a fight between us. I truly love Farah, but my most beloved wife is Qurat Ul Ain, Prehlaaj’s mother. Yes, Farah loves me the most, and we all love Aroosa the most.”

For actor Bushra Ansari, the biggest flaw in today’s television is not merely what appears on screen, but what is conspicuously absent: the real social and economic struggles of ordinary Pakistanis.

With decades in the industry, the veteran actor, singer and writer said she has little desire to revisit the tired loop of domestic squabbles and saas-bahu tropes. In an interview, she expressed a wish to see TV pose difficult questions, probe the origins of societal ills and offer audiences food for thought.

“I haven’t been writing for four years,” Bushra said, explaining that most current productions fail to engage her.

Her passion, she clarified, remains with issue-driven narratives. For Bushra, merely showcasing poverty, abuse, failing schools, dangerous roads or broken institutions is insufficient; a story must investigate why these conditions persist. “There should be root causes,” she insisted.

Recalling the television she grew up with and later joined, Bushra remembered an era when entertainment was deeply tied to literature and lived experience. “We didn’t have the idea of a heroine in our heads,” she said. “We wanted good characters,” she added.

Her generation, she noted, was shaped by a broader cultural landscape. “We used to watch films such as Gone with the Wind, read Wuthering Heights and follow Indian cinema. Literature, theatre, music and daily life all fed into what we made for TV,” she said.

Bushra added, “We used to do realistic, reality-based work.”

She cited Alif Noon as one example of a production that remains memorable decades later. She viewed that kind of storytelling as a vital function of television: to entertain while also prompting viewers to observe, question and learn.

“It’s a sad thing to say we don’t have that now,” she said, reflecting on the shifts she has witnessed over time.

The actor also spoke about her journey to becoming a PTV icon. “When I was born, I was like, I will be a singer,” she recalled. “I joined PTV in 1968 and used to do singing programmes. When I was around 15 or 16, I was even approached for drama roles, but my father was hesitant until I got married to a director,” Bushra shared.

Her career grew through singing contests and acting offers. Marriage did not end her professional life; her husband, a director, encouraged her to keep working.

Looking back at the 1980s TV industry as a space for creative risk-taking, she recalled being made to wear a burqa for a comic sketch and another production where the director used an exaggerated costume prop for laughs.

The openness to experiment extended to serious subjects too. Bushra recalled working on dramas about age, relationships and other themes that might still provoke discussion today.

The key, she suggested, was that television once engaged with real issues rather than churning out formulas. “We used to make topics on lessons that matter, which I believe is important to do every five years or so to remind people,” she noted.

For an industry she entered as a young singer in 1968, Bushra’s message remains remarkably steady: entertainment must not shy away from real life.
