Danyal Zafar, aka Danny Z, has made quite a reputation as a prankster through his Instagram. See how he takes it to the next level with Alizey Shah!

The Best Prank

How many times have you hidden behind a door waiting for someone to come out so you can boo them? For us, it has to be way too many times, and it doesn’t always end in the best way. Such is the case with Danyal Zafar and Alizey Shah on the set of their latest collaboration.

The latest video Danyal Zafar has posted shows the up-and-coming artist hiding outside while Alizey Shah is inside. As soon as she comes out, he boo’ed her loudly, and lo and behold; the reaction was worth it. Alizey Shah lets out a scream, which only becomes a reason for Danny Z to laugh even more.

Friendly Banter?

Danyal Zafar and Alizey Shah are the latest feature of new talent this industry has to offer. The young stars were engaging in friendly banter on a new Ramzan play HUM TV is recording.

The yet to be titled Ramzan show is a Momina Duraid production, and Saifee Hassan directs it with production by Umer Mukhtar. The play has been pegged to be lighthearted drama, just like Hum TV’s usual Ramazan special affairs like Suno Chanda! The drama also stars Javeria Abbasi, Aamir Qureshi, and Komal Rizvi, so it seems like we are all in for a treat.

Shooting for the show has already begun – as we can see- and will go on air in April with the beginning of Ramzan.

Is It Appropriate?

While the act itself was pretty harmless, it’s Alizey Shah’s reaction that is being deemed inappropriate by their fans. The hitting at the end, even though it might be just jokingly, does not set a good precedent for professional relations.

Netizens Reactions

The netizens were amused as well as surprised by the same video! The prank is hilarious, and we can not doubt that— this prank always gets the best of us. Naturally, you can find a multitude of laugh reactions in the comments below. It was cute!

However, many people are raising eyebrows at the situation. Some are expressing their reservations about the act itself, while others are just confused. Does it look forced, or does it just look inappropriate? Here are some of the reactions you need to see:

Feb 10, 2021

Shehzad Roy is known to be someone whose songs we all have seen or heard since our childhood. His songs are humorous and involve social commentary regarding social issues while taking a more satirical rather than serious approach.

His Latest Song Featuring Modi And Abhinandan:

Shehzad Roy is known to be someone who sings timeless songs, and his music videos are always relevant. Even though his songs have discussed domestic issues and political scenarios in the past, his latest song aims at Indian Prime Minister Modi, who faces global criticism for his policies and reactions against the Indian farmers.

Kya PM Modi ko #kashmir #FarmersProtest ki kick lagee? Watch the full video here https://t.co/6kI1cVwZkK #KonKisKaAadmiHai pic.twitter.com/tDtUG6EIIV

Shehzad Roy revealed a snippet from the song’s music video while sharing the link of the full video link from his Youtube.

At one point in the music video titled, “Kon Kiska Aadmi Hai,” Shehzad Roy is commenting on those who are working on creating divisions while also at one end using Modi and Abhinandan (who are played by some actors) while referring to the infamous incident of Pakistan Army shooting down his aircraft and served him tea.

Watch the full music video below:

Fans React To The Comeback Made By Shehzad Roy

Soon after the song was released, Twitteratis celebrated the comeback of Shehzad Roy, who had been absent for a brief period of time from the Pakistani music scene.

Everyday I fall more and more in love with Shehzad Roy #KonKiskaAadmiHai
— R-ش | AREEBA STAN ACCOUNT (@lostbabygorilla) February 8, 2021

I can’t wait to share with everyone a jingle that @ShehzadRoy has created for us. It’s sweet, it’s soft and you will hum it for hours after you’ve listened to it.

More power to you, your voice and your team ♥️♥️♥️

yee shezad roy is back😍😍😍😍
— Eman Taj (@Emantaj20) February 8, 2021

While someone pointed out how the guitars were not plugged in the music video.

Acha, Shehzad Roy released a new song. Kudos, for playing an electric guitar and an electric piano without any power cables.
— Ali Abdul Moiz Waseem (@saamw_) February 9, 2021

Shehzad Roy, even though he was not releasing songs for quite some time. He was still working off the spotlight for Pakistan’s welfare and for specific social issues that he considers dear to him. He was also appointed as the United Nations Goodwill Ambassador back in 2017.

Shehzad Roy’s song “Laga Reh” was a massive hit for providing a unique insight into Pakistan’s political scene. Even though the song was released more than a decade ago, it is still an accurate commentary and description of Pakistan’s ethical and political landscape.

Shehzad Roy and his songs hold a dear memory in every millennial’s heart. When the local music industry was thriving, Shehzad Roy, Atif Aslam, Ali Zafar were the front-line artists who were known to represent the true essence of Pakistani music in the 2000s.

Let’s hope the Pakistani music industry returns to its days of glory and starts coming up with genuine content like it used to.

What do you think about Shehzad Roy’s comeback? Let us know in the comments below.

Pakistan Soon To Utilize Waste To Generate Energy

By

-

Feb 10, 2021

Back when we were enrolled in schools and colleges, we used to study that Pakistan has to exports waste because there is just too much of it. And the countries importing it would employ it in various uses. But now, it seems that instead of exporting it at minimal rates, we have realized that we can make better use of it.

FPCCI on Waste Utilization

The Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) president has hinted that the concept of generating energy through waste will soon be introduced in Pakistan. Mian Nasser Hyatt Maggo also said that all the associated ministries would be taught about this technology was this to be employed. This happened during the meeting with the delegation of the Pakistan Plastic Manufacturers Association on Tuesday. He mentioned how Pakistan was getting more used to the idea of waste recycling and Chinese innovation.

Moreover, he said that Pakistan should delve into non-traditional goods now because “Pakistan’s exports are concentrated in only a few products and a handful of markets.”

FPCCI – the rest of the meeting

FPCCI also stated that this also means that rules and regulations of doing business need to ease up because they directly affect the country’s exports. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Plastic Manufacturers Association delegation added that they have been very active in introducing Pakistan’s plastic internationally. And this contribution is important for the economic development of Pakistan.

Currently, due to taxation by the Federal Board of Revenue and Sindh Revenue Board leads to double taxation on the industry. And this negatively affects the revenues. Moreover, it’s not just the problems in doing business internationally but also doing business with different Pakistan cities.

So the meeting ended with hoping to ease up the business operations and the introduction of energy generation from waste. Hopefully, this will lead to better utilization of wastes. And our government and the people, both, will get more invested in waste disposal.

Hyundai Denies Rumors Of Apple Car Development

Hyundai Denies With Apple — Image Source: hypebeast.com

The automobile industry often faces a wide variety of encounters. Sometimes, they are faced with problems from the real world, otherwise, they are faced with virtual issues. When the self-driving car designs were first being made, it became quite a hassle to understand how it worked. It was considered near impossible to build a vehicle that thinks on its own and requires no help from the driver.

However, seeing the rate at which Tesla is progressing with its technology, it does not seem entirely impossible now. What remains is to achieve full autonomy of the vehicle, which is said to take some time. Between everyone dipping into the automotive industry, Apple has done the same too. Where there were rumors of an Apple car in development, there is an expected release date of it too. However, Hyundai has refused their involvement in it!

Hyundai denies involvement — Image Source: Hyundai.com

Hyundai Era:

Hyundai has always been a brand known for its Robust quality. They are one of the best-known in the industry. They gain such a reaction from the audience that people go ‘Oh?’ when they hear the company’s name. They have vehicles so widespread that a lot of cabs in the city of Karachi have been Hyundai. This shows precisely how diverse of an area they operate in.

Of course, it is understandable that no one wants their name associated with any form of news that is not about them. Sometimes, rumors get flown here and there about different things. Similarly, it was once stated that Hyundai is in a partnership with Apple over the new car Development.

Plain Denial:

However, the recent news states that they have said this news to be untrue. Although they have said that they are in partnership with multiple firms over autonomous driving, they denied the one with Apple. Not just Hyundai, but KIA is also one of the allegedly in partnership with Apple.

They, too, have said the same thing about multiple firm partnerships but nothing specific to Apple. This is an exciting development because it shows a sense of uncertainty on the playing field. While people first did think these two brands were involved with the Apple car, it now seems the exact opposite of it.

Apple car Development denied by Hyundai — Image Source: appleinsider.com

Various Plays At Work:

We have yet to see how this piece of news unfolds over the course of the year. However, their denial has put another light shadow over the Apple car Development. Now, again, a lot of people are not sure how the company intends to progress in its automotive area. The Apple car may just be one of the most impressive products that the world ever sees. With the technology that Apple is incorporating in its devices, maybe it replicates that same one in the car.

Maybe they have something even better, in-store, planned for the car. We hope there is a positive development because a whole sea of audience wish to see the car unveiled. Tesla is not the only one involved in autonomous driving.

Upon being asked how they met, they answered that it was the efforts of their mutual friends who thought that the two would be compatible. So to make them meet each other, they sketched a plan.

Nadia had asked for a makeup package that her friend sent through Faisal. Faisal was employed to drop the packet in Karachi at Nadia’s place. He says that he had assumed that the meet up would be 5 minutes long to give the package and be on his way. But then, when he actually met her, the 5 minutes meet up stretched over four hours.

After that, Faisal did not have an excuse to contact her, and Nadia did not have time. But some time later, Faisal made up a scam excuse. One day, he just called her saying that he had forgotten his sunglasses at her place. Nadia, who had been locked on her sister’s terrace by mistake, started talking.

Haris Shakeel Accused Of Plagiarizing Farah Talib’s Work

Feb 9, 2021

Pantene Hum Bridal Couture Week has been all talks after Ali Xeeshan’s statement on Dowry in collaboration with UN Women. He had used a fashion show earlier to make a statement on child marriages as well by teaming up with Ali Rez. But there was something else noted at the Couture Week, and it was plagiarism! Haris Shakeel was accused of it.

Haris Shakeel and his Ghazal

The designer exhibited his collection ‘Ghazal’ at the Couture Week 2021. One of his dresses were worn by Sunita Marshall. It was a pretty dress, and well, the model knows how to carry a dress well too. The designer, Farah Talib Aziz, took to Instagram that this dress is not really an original.

Farah Talib Aziz With her Kalidar Angarkha

Farah Talib Aziz had posted a picture of her dress. Ayeza Khan had modeled for her back in 2019. It was the orchid purple that literally did embody luxury at its finest. She had made use of heritage gota, sheesha, and aari work in her kalidaar angarkha! ⁠

The designer accusing Shakeel of plagiarism, comments on Instagram, telling Haris Shakeel to be more original instead of ‘constantly’ copying her works.

Haris Shakeel is also one of the renowned designers in the country. He is based in Karachi and is categorized as one of the mid-range designers, although in this context, mid-range is relative considering not everyone can afford him either. But yes, compared to Farah Talib Aziz, he could be categorized as that.

For customers who love to showcase the designer’s name at their wedding, it may come as a shock if their FTA dress is called to have been bought from Haris Shakeel. Another designer, Zaheer Abbas, has also accused Haris Shakeel of such an act. He even compared the designer to Tariq Road and Ghausia Market Stores, saying he considers Haris to be at the same level. Now there is nothing wrong with buying from these markets, but it must be quite a demeaning comment within the designer fraternity.

Haris Shakeel however, has denied the accusation saying that the only thing similar between the two dresses is the color.

Dogecoin Cryptocurrency Is Skyrocketing After Elon Musk's Tweet — Image Source: Twitter

The month of January 2021 passed by us really quickly and had many eventful days. With WhatsApp’s privacy policy fiasco along with Gamestop’s price increasing after a group of Redditors decided to mess with the billionaires, it seems as if the year 2021 is not short of surprises.

DogeCoin’s Price Increasing Enormously Courtesy Elon Musk?

Now, as of today, Dogecoin, which refers to itself as the “fun and friendly internet currency” by its founders, has gained a lot of attention in the past because it was started as a joke and is named after a viral meme and has doge as its mascot or front-face.

Elon Musk, who is known as one of the prominent innovators of the 21st Century and is one of the well-reputed meme-lords often participating in the internet’s sub-cultures, has also voiced his support for cryptocurrency, Dogecoin.

A Series Of Tweets Inspired By Memes (And Reddit, Ofcourse):

The entrepreneur, investor, and billionaire responsible for a series of ventures including PayPal, Space X, Tesla, and several others, Elon tweeted a series of tweets in support of the cryptocurrency that has apparently led to a surge in its price.

Tesla Investing $1.5 Billion In Bitcoin Leading To A 21% Increase

Elon Musk’s company Tesla which has been credited for bringing electric vehicles to the mainstream, invested $1.5 Billion, which has led to the cryptocurrency reaching the price of $47000. The company has been credited for this 21% surge in the price of the cryptocurrency.

Elon Musk literally push #Bitcoin to 21% in the last 24 hours today.

American rapper Snoop Dogg also weighed in on the market manipulation and commentary by Musk that the common people have praised as it was something that was only confined to billionaires in the past. Snoop Dogg posted a picture of Doge, which is probably in support of the cryptocurrency named after a meme.

— Snoop Dogg (@SnoopDogg) February 6, 2021

Why Is This Moment Iconic And Special?

This has become massive news because never in the history of stock markets and cryptocurrency have we seen market manipulation of this sort. This was confined to billionaires, and they were the ones to benefit from it; however, this is the first time common people have been able to benefit from the system that has been rigged against them.

Though we are curious to see what the future holds for the cryptocurrency and the stock market, let’s hope the working class makes the most out of it to turn their lives around.

Privacy Policy: Google Has A Good News For Its Users

By

-

Feb 9, 2021

[Update]: Going on to a website, and it asks you if you are okay with cookies. It does ease up your life a little because then you start getting personalized ads. But that means your privacy is being compromised. To make sure you see what you want, they have to track your location, analyze your preferences, your dislikes, among other things. Sometimes it gets too much, and overt use leads to people thinking their privacy is being invaded. But what if we were to tell you that that’s not the case anymore because Google is doing something new?

Well, you will still get personalized ads because, let’s be honest, that’s how businesses will keep running. But now, they won’t be tracking the user. The process with which they will do this is called Federated Learning of Cohorts (FLoC). Google product manager Chetna Bindra, when talking about it, said:

“This approach effectively hides individuals ‘in the crowd’ and uses on-device processing to keep a person’s web history private on the browser.”

The internet giant will start testing it in collaboration with advertisers later this year, where the system is said to generate a replacement signal for third party cookies. This way, they will be able to safeguard their users’ data.

The “all-new” Gmail is available to the more than four million businesses that pay for G Suite services.

People who use the email service personally for free can opt-in by choosing settings, vice president of product management David Thacker said in a blog post.

Revamped Gmail has “a brand new look on the web, advanced security features, new applications of Google’s artificial intelligence and even more integrations with other G Suite apps,” according to Thacker.

A confidential mode added to Gmail promises to let people sending messages set expiration dates and block them from being forwarded, copied, downloaded, or printed.

Messages can be revoked after being sent, Thacker said.

Senders of mail can also require that a code delivered by text message be entered before an email can be viewed in an added security layer.

“Because you can require additional authentication via text message to view an email, it’s also possible to protect data even if a recipient’s email account has been hijacked while the message is active,” Thacker said.

The confidential mode will begin to roll out to personal Gmail users and a limited number of G Suite customers in the coming weeks, according to Google.

Artificial intelligence is being put to work in new Gmail features, including “nudging” people to tend to neglected messages and automated reply suggestions along the lines of those added to a mobile version of the email service last year.

“Gmail can also recommend when to unsubscribe from mailing lists,” Thacker said.

“Using intelligence, unsubscribe suggestions appear based on cues like how many emails you get from a sender and how many of them you actually read.”

Google and rival technology titans such as Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft have followed people into the internet cloud with services, digital content, and software hosted online at data centers but accessed from the gamut of devices.

When we think of Toyota, what is the foremost thing that comes to our mind? It can be guessed that the Land Cruiser is one of the first things to enter our brains. They have been around for quite a long time and they have quite a reputation built over the decades. Even one from the 90s and 80s is considered as robust as ever.

Whether you are a fan of the Land Cruiser or Corolla, Toyota has got you covered. They provide everything from Sedans to SUVs, to compacts. You cannot go wrong with Toyota because they have cemented themselves as robust titans of the automotive industry.

Another recent release by them has been the Toyota Fortuner. Now, this is an SUV with ample seating capacity and good build quality. It has recently undergone a Transformation. Let us see!

Toyota Fortuner facelift — Image Source: firstpost.com

Toyota SUVs:

There have been quite a lot of SUVs by Toyota over the years. One of the most notable is the Toyota Fortuner. It is most common these days, when you’d see a lot of people driving them. They are extremely comfortable to the driver and their family and it even offers premium features. The current price of a new Fortuner crosses Rs.90 Lac, though. This means that the car is an investment.

It may not have as high of a fuel average but it can run over almost all kinds of terrain. The writer of this article has seen the Toyota Fortuner do well in water based terrains as well as heavy sand ones. Toyota has come a long way and has not compromised on quality since the Toyota Blizzard I. 1982. Now that was one impressive jeep!

A Fortuner Facelift:

According to our sources, we have a new piece of news related to the Fortuner. After quite a lot of model releases and market selling, it has made an additional change. Yes, the new Toyota Fortuner has undergone a facelift. It will be coming soon to the markets of Pakistan. Maybe you see more of them being driven here by the end of 2021.

As we are already familiar, the Fortuner comes in three variants. The first two are petrol based and the third is a Sigma Diesel variant. Apart from the facelift, there are expected to be even more changes in the new model. Alongside increased engine power and fuel efficiency, much is being looked forward to.

Innovations In Car Making:

We have yet to see the entry of this facelift in Pakistan. However, we can say that as successful as Fortuner has been, its successor model might be the same. It’s coming in with more improvements such as new driving modes, newer alloy designs and different slip differential.

We hope that Toyota continues to rise through the ranks as we progress further into 2021. However, we must keep in mind that the Fortuner is an investment and must be treated as such. If you wish to go for the facelift variant, we suggest you start saving up!

New Sanitizable remote control and Samsung — Image Source: tacbz.com

Cleanliness is a major part of everyone’s lives. Whether you are a fan of movies or tv shows, you want to, occasionally, watch them on the big screen. Of course, that does not mean that the Application of a Television extends only this far. Technology is progressing ahead at a swift pace and we see more and more developments every day.

It seems just like yesterday that the new Samsung Galaxy S4 hit the eyes of everyone we know. It had a retinal scroll function which left us wanting more of the phone. After S3, Samsung has continued to progress well with every release. Its most recent, the S21, has much to offer to the user.

The Note series is yet another notable product of the company. Just a little while back, we saw Samsung move into the Automotive domain. Their chips are being used in a lot of automobiles of today.

A World For Samsung:

When we first started to hear about Samsung, phones were not the only thing that rang in our heads. Television sets, as well as Cameras, are known products of the company. They have come quite far now and one of their application even extends towards the current pandemic situation.

So what exactly have they come up with? You must have heard of their recent robotic unveil too. They made a product that does your laundry and even brings you a drink after a rough day. However, today we have something slightly different. It is more along the lines of ‘Covid’ themed.

A New Invention:

So, what do we have here? During the time of Covid, physical contact had become a rare thing in the public. Places that were swarming with people, lay deserted. Amidst this chaotic time, Samsung has unveiled a new remote control for the television. It is one whose design makes it easily Sanitizable. We know that sanitizing is quite necessary these days.

These new remotes are set to be placed in hospitals all over the place, by Samsung. Hospitals can often be considered as places where there is a threat of disease. Ironic, is it not? So, in places where tv remotes come in human contact a lot, Samsung has made these for them. Now you can easily sanitize the remote before you continue using it, or after you’ve used it.

Useful Innovations:

So, what does this invention tell us? It shows us that this whole virus situation is causing people to think in new ways. Who would have thought of such an idea, were it not for coronavirus. No, that does, in no way, mean we should be thankful it exists.

We hope that Samsung continues to release such products in the future and we want to use more of them. It is always fun to pick up something that you know is themed according to the era. Sanitizable remote controls are just another thing we can chalk up to the list of corona innovative items!

Have you ever been caught talking in your sleep and later told about it? When people who do sleep talking and are told about it, they are not able to believe it, but that’s because they haven’t witnessed it themselves. It’s kind of like being told that they snore. They find it embarrassing. Although they really shouldn’t because it’s a type of disorder. So let’s look at some lesser-known facts about it, shall we?

1. It is a disorder

The technical name of the sleep disorder which makes you talk while you are sleeping is called somniloquy, and it is genetic. So that means if you have it, someone passed it along to you, most probably.

2. Understandable? This sleep talk?

Another very interesting fact is that if you sleep talk and someone sleeps with you, they will be able to understand what you are saying if you are saying it in the REM part of the sleep. If your sleep talk happens at other times, that is at NREM 2 or 3; they will only hear gibberish.

3. Who is more like to talk during sleep?

Another lesser-known fact about sleep talking is that if you are a woman, you are less likely to have it. This is so because men and children are more susceptible to it. Moreover, the children grow out of it as they grow older, very few retain it.

4. The causes!

But what can lead to sleep talking? Some people make up their own analysis. For instance, you will find someone saying that whenever they are fatigued, that’s when they sleep talk. But really, the most common causes are more detailed than that. They include stress, fever, depression, anxiety, drugs, and sleep deprivation.

5. How bad is it?

Usually, sleep talk is over in 30 seconds, and it is not dangerous (well, that is, if you did not let on any important secret). It’s only bad if this starts after 25 years of age because that means you are suffering from another medical issue. Now, this could either be biological, which it usually is, or it could be psychological as well. So if any emotional trauma is stirred up, the body could react by making you talk in your sleep.

These are a few facts that you might not have known about sleep talking.

The actress Sajal Ali is an amazing actress, and she has proved her talent through her numerous projects. The celebrity was even invited by Bollywood to perform alongside Sridevi. She has gathered quite some love from many people. Besides being talented, she is also very beautiful, and people just adore her and Ahad together. The husband and wife are quite regular in posting about their lives to keep their fans in the loop.

Sajal Ali Instagram Info

With more than 700 posts on her Instagram, Sajal had gained 6.9 million followers. But now, her account only has 371 pots. She has deleted almost half of her posts. Don’t be scared though, all of her pictures with her husband Ahad are still on. She has also unfollowed more than 70 people.

One can only wonder what led to the Mom actress behaving in such a way, but some people assume that it was her copying a Bollywood actress who pulled a similar stunt.

What could be the reason?

It should be noted that the actress has also made her debut in a Hollywood movie where she performed alongside Emma Thompson. And this could very well be the reason why she filtered her account. I mean, tell me, have we not ever modified our Instagram accounts keeping in mind the people who could be accessing us?

Rihanna To Sing The Official Peshawar Zalmi’s Anthem?

Feb 8, 2021

By now, you have probably heard the official Pakistan Super League’s anthem for its sixth edition. The song featured Naseebo Lal, Aima Baig and Young Stunners and was accompanied by a vibrant music video and a catchy beat.

Even though it has barely been 24 hours since the song released, the song has already managed to gain a lot of attention from the Pakistani fans and followers of PSL who were anticipating its release.

A Possible Anthem By Rihanna For Peshawar Zalmi?

The anticipation for the official song was breaking all charts after the artists for this year’s anthem were officially announced. Many were speculating about what the song would sound like and whether or not the music, lyrics and the video accompanying it would get the cricket fans to celebrate the arrival of cricket at our national stadiums.

Javed Afridi who is the Chairman of Peshawar Zalmi along with being the CEO of Haier and Ruba, hinted at a possible anthem sung by the American superstar Rihanna who is one of the most popular singers in the world.

RIHANNA FOR ZALMI ANTHEM ❓

Is The Official Peshawar Zalmi Song Actually Under Works?

The tweet immediately caught everyone’s attention and even though we doubt that anything of such magnitude is under works, if it happens it would take the world by storm considering the American artist has not released an album in over five years.

When asked by a fan, the singer’s reaction shows she might not be interested in making music for a while.

Rihanna has branched out her expertise and her makeup brand Fenty is getting all of her undivided attention. The singer has rarely released any music and we highly doubt she would change her decision for Peshawar Zalmi’s official anthem.

Then what about Javed Afridi’s Tweet?

Even though we are yet to hear anything on this specific tweet from Javed Afridi himself or Rihanna, the tweet was probably poking fun at Indian hyper-nationalists who were turning a blind-eye to the Indian farmers’ protests and were angry after Rihanna tweeted about it.

why aren’t we talking about this?! #FarmersProtest https://t.co/obmIlXhK9S

— Rihanna (@rihanna) February 2, 2021

The tweet in support of the Indian farmers by Rihanna prompted many Modi-supporters to call Rihanna an ISI agent, sponsored by Pakistan.

My appeal to all SSR Warriors.. We shouldn't be STOP our SSR & Disah Murder Justice Revolution Movement at any cost and any circumstances. We all United

Rihanna with Pakistani minister "Zulfiqar Bokhari"

Proof that she was paid for that tweet by ISI

— Rashmi Ranjan Sahoo (SSR & Modi Ka Parivar)🇮🇳 (@RRS_InnerVoice) February 3, 2021

The tweet hinting the anthem for Peshawar Zalmi to be sung by Rihanna was probably a reaction to such claims but we do hope that we see international artists performing Pakistan Super League’s official anthems.

Hajj Pilgrims COVID-19 Vaccination Made Mandatory By Government

Feb 8, 2021

Covid-19 vaccinations have finally started reaching most of the world. Considering a vast population has contracted COVID already, and almost everyone is susceptible to contracting it, vaccinations have become very important. However, it needs to be administered strategically.

COVID vaccine administration

At first, it was the health workers, the front line army in the COVID war. Then came the senior citizen and patients; after that, it would be healthy. Anyone out of turn would have to suffer the consequence. But someone else has joined the list of those who ‘need’ to be vaccinated. The government has announced that the Hajj Pilgrims will be joining the list.

Due to COVID, a minimal number of people from Pakistan will be going to perform Hajj from Pakistan. Last year, Saudi Arabia had allowed only 10,000 people (residents of the country) to perform Hajj. The number will increase this year but will not return to its average level, not yet at least.

Hajj Pilgrims

The Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony has said that the number will only be a few thousand. And all of them will have to get vaccinated before they start the pilgrimage.

In fact, this year, the Hajj pilgrimage will be more expensive than usual. The Hajj scheme started last week. And the government will begin receiving applications from the later part of the current month.

Upon selection of people, they will have to get vaccinated, and considering they would be on the list of the pilgrims; they will be administered with the vaccine. It is not only to ensure that they stay safe in their travels but also so that they do not become the carrier of the virus and bring more and mutated versions of the strain into the country.
