Nida added, “It’s been 22 years since my wedding, and I spent one million rupees on the three ceremonies, while Yasir handled the entire Walimah.”

Nida Yasir and Yasir Nawaz, who married in 2002, are now parents to three children.

Jawad Ahmad Calls Society’s Tolerance of Profanity ‘Dangerous’

Jawad Ahmad

Singer-turned-politician Jawad Ahmad raised concerns about society’s growing tolerance for vulgarity and profanity.

He recalled his upbringing, saying, “In the household I grew up in, using curse words was unthinkable—whether on my mother’s side or my father’s.” Jawad explained that both of his parents, being educators, taught him respect, and he never heard foul language in his family.

Defining profanity, the Hamain Tum Se Pyar Hai singer said it includes using hateful or false labels to insult someone, such as calling them something they are clearly not—like comparing them to an animal.

He added that curse words also include vulgar references to body parts, misogynistic insults directed at mothers or sisters, or hateful remarks about someone’s caste, appearance, or profession. “Such language isn’t just rude—it targets a person’s character in a senseless way,” Jawad emphasized.

Jawad Ahmad and His Music

Jawad Ahmad rose to fame with his solo song Allah Meray Dil Kay Ander, which reflected his deep interest in Sufism.

Although he never received formal training in music, he writes and composes most of his own songs. He takes inspiration from a wide range of musical legends, including Ustad Amanat Ali Khan, Mehdi Hassan, Ustad Salamat Ali Khan, Tufail Niazi, Pathanay Khan, Hamid Ali Bela, Madam Noor Jehan, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Kishore Kumar, the Eagles, Elvis Presley, and Mohammed Rafi.

To date, Jawad Ahmad has made his mark in the music industry with three solo albums and several drama OSTs.
