Initially set to make its debut in June 2025, the release has now been pushed to a tentative window between October and November 2025. While the announcement might disappoint die-hard fans, insiders reveal that the delay signals something far more promising—a final polish to ensure cinematic excellence.

This isn’t just another TV show; Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo is a milestone for Pakistan’s entertainment industry. As the country’s first-ever Netflix original, the series marks a historic leap into the global streaming arena. Expectations are sky-high, and understandably so.

Then there’s the cast—an ensemble that reads like a who’s who of Pakistani cinema. Fawad Khan, Mahira Khan, Sanam Saeed, Ahad Raza Mir, Hamza Ali Abbasi, Maya Ali, Hania Aamir, Khushhal Khan, Iqra Aziz, and Bilal Ashraf—each star bringing a unique brilliance to the screen. Their roles, drawn from Ishtiaq’s emotionally rich characters, are poised to deliver performances that resonate far beyond borders.

Zainab Yousaf Faces Heat Over Bitter Comments About Cousins

Zainab Yousaf, an emerging media face and aspiring model, has found herself in the eye of a digital storm after an explosive interview clip surfaced online — one that has left audiences divided and social platforms ablaze.

During her appearance on a talk show alongside comedian Qaiser Piya and host Vasay Chaudhry, Zainab Yousaf was asked a lighthearted question: whether she ever had feelings for any of her cousins — a common cultural query often met with playful or diplomatic responses. But what followed was a sharp, unexpected outburst that has since drawn widespread criticism.

“God forbid! May it never happen,” she said with visible disdain, before adding, “I hate my aunt’s sons, I hate my uncle’s sons, and I hate my maternal cousins. All are dead to me.”

Zainab’s words left the hosts visibly stunned. She went on to describe her extended family as “toxic,” citing unspecified past experiences that, according to her, led to this deeply rooted resentment. Her tone, however, veered less towards emotional reflection and more toward outright hostility — something that didn’t sit well with viewers.

The backlash was swift. Many on social media accused her of airing personal grievances in a public forum with unnecessary bitterness. Critics questioned the maturity of her statement and highlighted the irony in her stance — especially considering that her own brother is likely a cousin to someone else.

“She’s displaying more toxicity than the people she’s condemning,” read one pointed comment. Others took aim at her upbringing, calling her remarks a reflection of deep-seated emotional issues and a lack of basic courtesy.

Saboor Aly’s Godh Bharai: A Celebration of Love

Pakistani television darling Saboor Aly has finally shared enchanting glimpses of her Godh Bharai — the traditional pre-birth celebration that radiates culture, family love, and maternal joy. Though the actress welcomed her daughter months ago, this intimate throwback is nothing short of cinematic bliss.

Posted on her official Instagram, Saboor’s video from the ceremony is a montage of beautiful moments: laughter that echoes through the gathering, hands gently feeding her sweets, and a room brimming with prayers and poetic affection. But more than the visual elegance, it’s the emotional texture of the day that stands out — a tribute to motherhood, family ties, and joyful anticipation.

What added a touch of timeless charm to the event was Saboor Aly outfit — an heirloom red gharara, gifted by her mother-in-law and beautifully revived by designer Farah Talib Aziz. Styled with luminous makeup and classic white jewelry, she looked every bit a glowing vision of maternal grace. Her husband, Ali Ansari, brought his own flair to the frame, dressed in an elegant off-white shalwar kameez paired with a maroon coat — perfectly complementing his bride of the day.

Yet, the show-stealers were undoubtedly the couple’s candid chemistry and their rom-com-like moments — walking hand-in-hand, exchanging laughter, and beaming with joy. The celebration transformed into a mini fiesta with close showbiz friends breaking into songs and verses for the soon-to-arrive baby, turning tradition into unforgettable joy.

“Throwback to the most wholesome evening showered with love, prayers, and magic,” Saboor captioned her post. And truly, this Godh Bharai was not just a ceremony — it was a living poem of love, legacy, and the miracle of new life.
