Shafqat Amanat Ali Draws Criticism for Romantic Role in ‘Pehli Si Mohabbat’ Video
Shafqat Amanat Ali, a celebrated name in Pakistan’s classical, ghazal, and playback music scene, has long been admired for his soulful voice and timeless performances. Over the years, he has built a strong fan base on both sides of the border, delivering memorable tracks that continue to resonate with music lovers.
The singer was recently applauded for his graceful performance at Bridal Couture Week, where his rendition of Aankhon Ke Saagar stood out as one of the highlights of the event. Riding on that momentum, Shafqat is now preparing to release a cover of Malika-e-Tarannum Noor Jehan’s legendary ghazal, Pehli Si Mohabbat.
The upcoming music video features veteran film star Resham alongside Shafqat Amanat Ali in lead roles, presenting a romantic narrative to complement the emotional depth of the song. Scheduled to release on December 31, the teaser, shared by Resham on social media, quickly caught public attention.

However, instead of universal praise, the teaser got intense backlash online. A section of viewers questioned the decision to cast Shafqat Amanat Ali as the romantic lead, arguing that the role should have been assigned to a professional actor. Others expressed discomfort with the concept, labeling it unsuitable and underwhelming. Social media discussions also included age-related jibes, with critics making sarcastic comments about the casting choice.
Despite the criticism, the video has undeniably generated buzz ahead of its release, keeping Pehli Si Mohabbat firmly in the spotlight.

Pakistani supermodel-turned-actress Amna Ilyas has always been known for her personality and unfiltered honesty, from dominating fashion runways to delivering powerful performances on television, she has carved a niche for herself in the entertainment industry. But this time, it’s not her acting that’s making headlines it’s her remarks about marriage.
Amna, who stepped into television opposite Azfar Rehman in the Hum TV drama Janam Jali, has since proven her versatility with back-to-back strong performances. She recently impressed audiences in Humraaz and is currently earning applause for her role in Aik Aur Pakeezah.
For years, fans speculated about her rumored association with theatre director Dawar Mehmood, though neither publicly confirmed the relationship. Eventually, the two reportedly went their separate ways, and since then, Amna has remained single, much to the intrigue of her admirers.
“Find Me a Husband!” — Amna’s On-Air Appeal
During a recent appearance alongside morning show queens Nida Yasir and Javeria Saud, the conversation naturally steered toward her marriage plans. Instead of dodging the question, Amna responded with her signature humor.
She openly declared that she’s ready to tie the knot and jokingly assigned her celebrity friends the task of finding her a suitable match. With a playful tone, she teased them for not fulfilling their “friendship duties” and insisted they start searching seriously.
She wants someone good-looking, emotionally mature, financially stable, and most importantly, a total “green flag.” Her lighthearted yet honest confession had the audience laughing, but it also revealed her sincere desire to settle down with the right person.

Yasir Hussain Reveals What Really Happened After His Online Feud With Nadia Khan
Pakistani actor, writer, and now full-time producer Yasir Hussain has never been one to shy away from speaking his mind. Known for his outspoken personality and bold humor, Yasir recently found himself in the middle of an online showdown with actress-turned-critic Nadia Khan and fans were glued to every update.
The “Paradise” Controversy
Yasir’s latest project, Paradise, marked a significant step in his career as he not only produced but also directed the drama. While the project generated buzz, it also faced criticism, most notably on Nadia Khan’s review show Kya Drama Hai.
Nadia, who has transitioned into drama reviewing, didn’t hold back. She rated Paradise 2.5 out of 5, expressing that the drama failed to impress her as a strong production. Her remarks quickly made waves across social media.
Taking to Instagram, Yasir fired back with his own sarcastic rating for Nadia, stating he would give her 1.5 marks instead. He made it clear he wasn’t particularly impressed by the critique either. The digital sparring instantly became a hot topic in the entertainment circuit.
Face-to-Face After the Controversy
During his recent appearance on Shan e Suhoor, Yasir opened up about meeting Nadia Khan at an event after their public disagreement. Instead of awkwardness or hostility, the encounter turned out surprisingly cordial.
Yasir shared that he approached Nadia, greeted her warmly, and she responded with equal grace. No drama and no cold shoulders.
“No Personal Grudge”
While Yasir maintained that he is not a fan of Kya Drama Hai and believes the panellists are not in a position to harshly judge others, he clarified that his reaction came from the moment, not from personal bitterness. He acknowledged Nadia’s long-standing contribution to Pakistani television and credited her for her successful run as a morning show host, loved by millions.
