5 Ways To Keep Your Car Interior Looking As Good As New!
PC: ecomento.de

Clean cars are the ones that last longer compared to vehicles that only looked after once in a while. If you want your asset to last you for what you’ve paid for, you need to keep the exterior as well as the car interior crisp.

Keeping the car’s interior compared to the exterior can be a bit challenging. You have seats, mats, and a lot going on inside. Not to forget, there are many hard-to-reach places.

Moreover, if you have kids or clumsy passengers, then there’s always food or something dripping and spilling. This can leave a foul odor and can damage the car’s body. Hence, if you want the interior looking as good as new, here’s what you need to do!

5 Ways To Keep Your Car Interior Looking As Good As New!

1. Use Quality Window Film

Quality can make a big difference when it comes to expanding your car’s lifespan. When the vehicle is stagnant, it is standing for countless hours under the harsh UV rays given off by the sun. These rays enter via the bare windows and cause damage to the seats, dashboard, and interior trimming.

Eventually, the lifespan of the car interior decreases, and it costs you a lot of money to repair. The best solution to this problem is by using a high-quality window film. The film stops the UV rays from causing damage to the inside and reflects it out.

2. Weekly Vacuuming

They say that its human nature if you do something regularly for more than 20 days, it eventually becomes a habit. Similarly, make it a practice of conducting a weekly vacuuming activity.

This will help maintain an odor-less interior, will suck any food dropping or dust bunnies that are currently living in the car. If you own a pet, the vacuum will clean any air and will help keep allergens at bay esp. if you’re allergic to dust.

3. Replace Your Mats Once In A While

Consider replacing your car mats once in a while. Sometimes, vacuums and other cleaning methods are useful to take off the dirt and other particles, but eventually, the mats wear out. They ultimately get torn and have holes.

Trust me, when I saw passengers would know they have their feet placed on old smelly mats! Plus, it will add to your car’s fresh look!

4. Clean Out The Dash

Your dashboard is your locker inside a car. You put everything inside of it, from keys to papers to your wallet and phone, and at times junk! For anything you need to get rid of, your dashboard comes to the rescue.

However, an excellent cleanup of the dash is not a bad idea. Consider doing it bi-monthly or monthly according to your availability. You do not want dust and other particles to settle inside and give you a hard time driving.

5. Take Care Of The Leather

PC: Art of cleanliness

Often the most common mistake drivers make when cleaning the car interior is using harsh chemicals unsuitable for the leathered seats and trims. Not all compounds can be used to clean leather. The chemicals will destroy their quality and can cause an unpleasing odor. Hence, only use substances that are made explicitly for leather fabric.

3 Most Disastrous Earthquakes In Pakistan’s History

earthquakes

Mother Nature is a powerful force. She can turn the dynamics of the Earth’s geography upside down. Many have tried to conquer this force but they have been unable to. So what exactly does she bring with her? Of course, we can mention how beautiful nature is and there is no doubt about the magnitude of the beauty. However, Mother Nature does harbour powers that are beyond the control of any human being.

These are known as natural disasters. One such example is earthquakes. Earthquakes have the ability to bring about a form of destruction not comprehensible to humans. They are often left baffled with what an earthquake is capable of. In light of the terrible natural disaster that shook the nation fifteen years ago, we will take a look at some other devastating Earthquakes in Pakistan’s history.

Devastating earthquakes

1. The 2013 Catastrophes:

During the second half of 2013, around September, a series of earthquakes came raging towards the country. They came from the depth of the planet and caused nothing but destruction. The first earthquake, also known as the mainshock, came at a staggering magnitude of 7.7.

This is an extremely dangerous level and if the earthquake itself was any shallower than it was (fifteen kilometers), the destruction would have been more catastrophic. Despite the depth, it still turned out to be quite disastrous and the death toll was registered at 825, at least. It injured hundreds of others.

80% of homes in the Awaran district were destroyed in this event. The government estimated the destruction of houses at 21,000. The earthquake was so huge that it was also felt in other regions of Pakistan, like Karachi, Hyderabad. It was even felt in parts of India like Delhi. This was not the end of the disaster, as the coming two days were to reveal. An aftershock came hurling towards the same region with a magnitude of 6.8!

2. The Ziarat Quakes: 2008

Rewinding back a couple of years, Pakistan faced yet another series of humungous earthquakes. The first hit the area of Balochistan in October. The Richter scale measured its magnitude at 6.4. This is still quite huge. It was reported at a depth of fifteen kilometers. This was followed by a second earthquake of the same magnitude. However, this one was shallower than the first one, at a depth of fourteen kilometers. 215 people lost their lives in these natural disasters.

Not just this, the earthquakes left more than 200 injured and upwards of 100, 000 people homeless. This was one of the highest hitting Earthquakes in Pakistan’s history.

3. 2005: Colossal Destruction

Even now, this earthquake is considered as the most destructive earthquake after 1947. The only one that comes close was in 1935. Out of all the earthquakes in Pakistan’s history, this one hit the hardest. The earthquake was centered around the area of Kashmir and it came around the morning hours of 8th October.

The magnitude of the quake was 7.6. The epicenter of destruction was Muzaffarabad. It was hit the hardest out of every city and area in that region. Due to this being shallower than any of the other earthquakes, the damage was quite high. It destroyed structures, cracked the ground and brought about nothing but more problems. There was no warning and the world was taken aback because of how severe this disaster was.

The death toll stood at a morbid and staggering 87, 350, although estimates put it above 100, 000. Over 3.5 million were rendered homeless and another 100, 000+ injured. Students were buried under collapsed buildings because schools were open that day.

In remembrance of what happened fifteen years ago today, the country conducted a moment of silence at 8:52 am this morning.

4 Things Small Businesses Can Do To Survive & Avoid Bankruptcy

things small businesses can do
Image Source: https://www.thestatesman.com

Business has always been a way of life for many. Whether it is a student trying to complete their bachelors or an adult working in the industry, a business can be a viable option. If you have an idea that you think can flourish well if its watered enough, then you should not hesitate to pursue it. Why wouldn’t business boom? Why wouldn’t profits soar?

However, there are many times that, due to a lack of sustainability, the business can come to the brink of collapse. Often, a small business may have to declare bankruptcy because let’s face it, they ran out of the runway that would have allowed them to take-off. Despite this, there are things that Small Businesses can do to avoid bankruptcy.

1. Cut those costs

Businesses often find themselves in trouble due to extra expenditure. There can often be unnecessary costs invested in the business. These may have no need to be present but they are there either as a luxury or something extra. If you find that your business may be going under, explore the areas of cost. Do you have a model that allows for perfect flow of cash, in and out? Cutting down on certain costs and working on a budget can allow your business the breathing room it requires.

Reducing expenses is part of this point. Where three vehicles are being used to cover a location, see if two vehicles can make rounds. Another way to cut cost is to make the most out of the space you have. Power down non-essential lights, appliances when not in use. After all, the electricity bill itself can be a hefty price to pay for a running business. This is quite a significant way for businesses to avoid bankruptcy.

2. Prioritize Debt Payments:

If your business has debt payments due which are also causing it to go under, check how soon they have to be paid. Since not all your bills will have the same urgency, it is better to prioritize. Set the most urgent payments at the top and think of ways to pay those off. Check if there can be a payment plan for these debts that have accumulated.

Remember, staying afloat is a huge part of running a business so make sure the debt is not heavy enough to sink it. Many organizations may offer reasonable payment plans and have policies in place in case of such a situation.

3. Selling Unnecessary Assets:

There are often assets present within the business that are not of use. They may have reached the end of their application and they may just be sitting gathering dust. If your business comprises of machinery or equipment, think of ways it can be liquidated.

Liquidation applies to machines, furniture and other similar resources alike. Huge round end table not of use? Sell it off. You need every source of inflow you can get.

4. Increasing Revenue:

Now, this option is one that might need more time to take footing. Increasing revenue is something that can keep a business afloat if it has some runway left. If there can be some alternate means of revenue generation present, it is better to accommodate those.

Increasing leads to attracting more customers, raising rates to a certain level can all be ways to generate extra revenue. There are ways to cross-sell and up-sell as well so employing those can help a small business. This is just one of the things small businesses can do to avoid bankruptcy.

Hina Altaf, the accomplished actress is being speculated on Instagram for any signs of “khush khabri”. Yes, the phupos are back and they’re wondering if another actress is pregnant!

Hina Altaf and Agha Ali

Hina Altaf is married to Agha Ali. Many of you might know him from his problematic statements but that’s a topic for another day. On May 23, 2020, the two announced to their fans of having tied the knot together.

They got married in a private ceremony on the day of Jumma Tul Wida and their pictures are adorable!

Hina Altaf’s Diet Control

A while ago on Nida Yasar’s morning show, the couple revealed a promise they had made to each other on the day of their marriage. Don’t try guessing it, you’ll never be able to, Agha Ali wanted Hina Altaf to promise that she’d never get fat (or at least as fat as the woman he showed to her). 

Of course, she laughed and she agreed and apparently Agha Ali also promised to stay “slim”. With this in mind, these questions about pregnancy seem hilarious. Check out this tweet that had us rolling on the floor:

Even Ali Gul Pir also had a take on this absurd conversation which is downright hilarious.

So Where Are These Rumours Coming From?

We know how we are also. An actress just wears loose clothes sometimes or gets a picture taken from a bad angle and there you have it: “SHE’S PREGNANT!”

The same has happened with Hina Altaf who recently put up a picture in which her clothes are considerably loose. Check it out and be the judge for yourself: is she expecting?

Hide The Bump: Mission Impossible 10

In our society, as hard as it may be to hide the humongous bump, many women will die trying. You might even be guilty of draping the dupatta from one side all over the bump making it look like the traditional Indian outfit. Or if you haven’t resorted to this, you’ve definitely seen women do that.

Otherwise, there are women wearing clothes so loose you can’t tell whether there’s a body inside the kurta or just air. But still, the bump will be trying to show itself. This stems from our age-old lessons that the bump must always be hidden! It’s a treasure!

Why ‘Churails’ Being Banned In Pakistan Is So Wrong

The inevitable has finally happened but that doesn’t mean people have no reaction to it: Pakistanis are angry, hopeless and revolted by the government’s decision.

The Censor Festival

Some uproar surrounding the series was witnessed during the last few days. Mostly men picked up some scenes in which sexual terms were being used and they were offended by the women in short clothes.

That is not to say each and every Pakistani woman hopped on the bandwagon and said this series was what the world needed, no. There were many who said they were “all for the liberalism” but this is a “bit extreme”. 

churails ban

Fast forward a few days, the series got banned in Pakistan because of its supposedly “lewd” content. It has now been removed from ZEE5 and that is a leap back for this country.

The Content That’s Preferred

Shehzad Ghias, the renowned comedian and also activist, summed up his thoughts on this decision very concisely. Have a read here and see if it changes your mind if you were playing for the other side:

The conservatives were enraged at what sort of content and ideals the ‘churails’ are putting forth. But what sort of content are they happy with? The same one in which it is taught that a husband must slap his wife every time she breathes? that marriage is one long episode of Tom n Jerry between the wife and mother-in-law?

This Could Have Been Pakistan’s Big Break

This show could have been Pakistan’s big break into the big leagues. There were chances of it going onto Netflix and being the first series to do so. Moreover, just think of how many men and women were inspired to create something themself that could have been amazing.

For reasons unknown to pretty much everyone, Pakistan is regressing day by day. Where we should be promoting the youth’s capability when it comes to tech and gaming, we ban those too. Now we’re banning ‘Churails’.

Karachiite Shares Account of Lahore Motorway Like Rape Attempt!

Karachiite Shares Account of Lahore Motorway Like Rape Attempt!
PC: Navbharat Times

The Islamic Republic of Pakistan is our homeland and we have always been proud of it. However, the last few weeks has thousands of us terrified following the Lahore Motorway gang-rape.

A woman was heading home with her children when she was approached by men after her car failed to move due to no fuel. She was raped in front of her children.

The Lahore Motorway rape case sent chills across the nation, followed by news of more rapes and murders of boys and girls. As crime continues to rise in Pakistan, another story has once again sunk our hearts.

Here’s What Happened

This time, a young man tells us about how the Lahore Motorway incident almost repeated itself in Karachi. He pens down that he was returning from a birthday party with two female friends.

After dropping off one of the girls, on his way to drop the other, around 10 men on 4 motorbikes surrounded his vehicle screaming “bahar nikal,” “bahar aa,” “larki ko bahar nikal.” Mortified, the youngsters tried to flea the gang but were caught by them once again a little further.

He also mentions that the bikers were boys aged between 15-25, but the look in their eyes was ‘barbaric!’

Moreover, the young victims have reached out to the authorities and have submitted their statements, hoping that the culprits will be caught before they get to another victim.

Here’s how one of the victims, Syed Shaheer Ali shares the account of the incident:

“I am writing this from a state of shock and trauma to inform you all that I and my female friend just escaped another possible Motorway incident God forbid. Please read it so that you all can protect yourselves too.

“We were coming back from a birthday celebration at one of our friend’s place and while on the way back, I had two female friends with me, one of whom I had to drop at a girl’s hostel.

“It was about 11.30 pm, I dropped one of the friends at the hostel and then my other female friend and I were headed towards Maskan. As soon as we crossed Safeet, 4 bikes appeared out of nowhere with a total of about 10 people on them. They surrounded our car shouting “Bahar nikaal”, “Bahar aa”, “Bahar nikaal inko”

“Trust me I was shaking to death realizing what’s gonna happen next. It was pitch dark in the premises, complete silence and we were stuck around the bushes. I tried my best to hold my nerves and pressed the accelerator to full as I tried to run away.

“As we ran and reached near the Boys hostel, they came again and surrounded us forcing me to stop the car. That’s when they came to the car’s window banging and screaming ‘Larki ko Bahar nikaal,’ ‘Gaari Roukk,’ ‘Bahar aa…’

“Trust me, I can’t even put into words the trauma my friend and I had to go through. She is in a complete state of shock up till now, and I’ve not been able to sleep peacefully yet.

Motorway Incident: Pakistanis Are Demanding The Removal Of CCPO Lahore

“They had just one intention, and if they had been successful to get inside the car, they would have beaten me. You all know what would have happened with the girl.

“Somehow I managed to escape, pushing my car to the limits. We informed the guards on the Maskan gate.
These guys looked around the age of 15 to 25 years but the barbaric look in their eyes was beyond what words can explain…

“We have informed the university’s management about this incident and admin is coordinating with us. We hope that the management takes this to the Rangers/security authorities and the culprits get caught.

https://www.facebook.com/shaheer.ali.23/posts/3644163568947389

Is This Really The ‘Islamic Republic Of Pakistan’?

This account has once again devastated us. Students are unsafe on the premises they consider their second home. This also shows us what path the youngsters of the country are going down on!

Can you imagine at a mere age of 15 or 16 wanting to hurt a female? Wanting to be a part of criminal activities? Imagine what the victims are going through. Will they ever be able to go back to their everyday lives?

5 Important Things To Know About The COVID-19 Vaccine

By
Mehak Zehra
-
covid 19 vaccine
Image Source: Bangkok Post

The pandemic, COVID-19, that began in late 2019 and spread all over the world like wildfire in the first quarter of 2020, was devastating. Many people succumbed to their death due to it, lockdowns were imposed, and numerous businesses closed down. Scared for almost a year now, people are now hoping for COVID-19 vaccine to grace us with its presence already.

But even if it does, there are few things that we need to remember.

1. Vaccine takes time

Vaccines help deal with illnesses. And in the past, they have helped with numerous pandemics such as smallpox. But vaccines cannot be regularised not until there have been clinical trials. And even in clinical trials, the drug should prove effective against placebo for more than 50% of the candidates. Take Measles, for instance, the vaccine has proven effective for 97% of the candidates. And obviously, the first-generation vaccine for COVID cannot be at the Measles vaccine level, but we will be a step closer.

2. A Global Evaluation 

The process for the COVID-19 vaccine to be regularised involves the vaccine entering the global market. They do so after the clinical trial has proved them to be successful for more than 50%, so let’s say 60% of the sample population. The drug enters the market but it is only protecting 6 out of every 10 people but the what of the remaining 4? Well, the market is then monitored. It is monitored for side effects, long term effects, and if it is t be administered more than once.

So with a pandemic this huge, it is going to be a trial and error game and it will take a long time to fully gauge it.

3. You need to wait to get the shot

Once a vaccine gets approved, it goes to the production phase. But with the production of the drug, manufacturers will also need to make the glass bottles and the syringes. If there is any problem with that, it will obstruct the distribution.

But let’s assume, everything is ready, does that mean you can ship it out? No. There are rules and regulations that they need to follow. And even then, first of all, all health care providers will receive the shot. Following them will be people with medical conditions. Then only, somewhere down the line, can average adults also receive the vaccine. Long story short, there will be quite some time until the vaccine gets to you.

4. Keep masks at hand

As we said, it will take some time to fully gauge the vaccine and its consequences so even if a vaccine is released, it is still not safe. Hence, make sure that you do not get rid of your masks and sanitizers as of yet. I mean you already bought them at a high price so better keep using them. Also, you never know if you contract it after the vaccine is released in the market what if the vaccine is still first-generation and ineffective for you.

Aside from masks, keep exercising social distancing.

5. Some people might not want it…

It is very likely that when a vaccine gets released, people do not want it. Polls and researches suggest that people want to wait. It gives them a sense of security in taking the vaccine a little late in the cycle. This is not right. If people do not take it, monitoring its result might get difficult and a second-generation vaccine will not be as effective. But here is the thing, organizations individually have the right to make vaccine shots a must for their employees. So all those in the position of power, use it here because the world needs you to.

All in all, having a vaccine is not the final piece in the COVID-19 puzzle. It will take us a huge amount of time in getting rid of this pandemic but we have to remain calm and practice the measures we have been following for some time now.

These days you will find a seasoned beggar at every roadside asking for your money. But it comes as a surprise when we come across people who do not fall to such a profession and continue working hard regardless of the obstacles. Such an individual is found in Karachi Qasba Colony. He is visually impaired but that doesn’t stop him from working to earn his living.

Muhammad Zarnosh’s life story

Muhammad Zarnosh is a classic example of when life throws problems at you, you face them head-on and try to work around them. And Zarnosh has been facing the problem since birth. When he was born, he started experiencing eyesight problems. But made do with it.

His father taught him plumbing and electric work when he was a teenager because it is important to have a skill. He excelled in it but here came the problem, the sight that was dwindling completely went away almost 10 years ago when he was in his twenties. Now, the skill he had acquired was electricity-related and without seeing what he is working on could, the work could prove very dangerous.

No Way Out?

This was indeed a very tough situation. However, the alternative for not taking on the electric jobs was begging and he refused to succumb to that. According to him:

“It’s better to do work and labour to earn a livelihood for my children than to beg. I am disabled but I am toiling for bread and butter. I have seen people who have no hands or legs but still do hard work.”

He mentions that he gets electric shocks sometimes as he fumbles around wires, separating the live ones with the ones that are not. But, he would continue to do this because the only thing he has been taught is hard work, he doesn’t believe in anything else.

What of the future?

The hard-working visually impaired Zarnosh mentions one regret though. He said, unfortunately, he learnt only this skill. Had he received proper education he would have provided better for his family. And so he has a similar wish for his children. Unlike him, he wants them to get a proper education. However, from what he earns he is only able to provide for the basic necessities and not for their education.

The future is unpredictable, anything can happen. Zarnosh’s children can get the education and get to the places Zarnosh dreams of. But this is the thought process that we need at a larger scale in Pakistan.

what to know before season 3 release

The world of pop culture has taken the internet by storm. There is no lack of movies or tv-shows every time someone turns on the computer or television. Netflix, which once upon a time used to sell DVDs, now has its streaming service. Not just that, but services like Amazon streaming, Hulu, and NBC have also gained a footing in this market.

With the advent of 2019 came a new tv-show, unique in its plot. It starts on a light note. However, with the progression of the seasons, it slowly spirals into something much darker. This show is called ‘YOU.’ It is expected to release its third season soon. We have compiled a list of 5 things to know before YOU Season 3.

Tv show season

1. Based on the Novel

This information goes by quietly, but the series is based on a novel series. It progresses at a reasonable place, leaving the audience with room to breathe. So, it is no surprise that the third season is also based on the novel series. This information is vital to anyone who wishes to get an idea or a grip on the story ahead of time.

The writer of this article recalls doing the same thing when it came to the ‘Witcher’ novels. (They are a highly recommended read)

2. Goldberg is back!

Can this be a worthwhile tv-show without its star protagonist returning for yet another season 3? Joe Goldberg’s character development can be considered as the stuff of legends! From how he started to how he ended up can speak a lot about how well the story has been written. Penn Badgley is quite the genius behind the character and deserves no less praise.

However, we don’t know how his character will further take shape this season. This is kept in perspective while keeping in light the events of season 2 finale.

3. Love ‘Harley’ Quinn returns!

Considering the events of the second season, Joe would be quite incomplete without the character that further helps in shaping this show’s destiny. When last we saw, Love Quinn was pregnant. However, whether it was Joe’s child or someone else yet remains to be seen.

Suppose there is one sure thing to obtain from this season, its that she goes toe-to-toe with Joe on the levels of ‘Crazy.’ Come on! We all remember what happened to Candice (The second time). Let us see what YOU season 3 brings with it.

4. The third is not the last

The producer of the show was reported to have mentioned this very thing. She said that there is no way that this can be the final leg of Joe’s journey. The producer, Sera Gamble, further elaborated on this idea that there is quite a lot of content to go through. The novel series gives them quite a lot of room for more seasons.

There is no reason to believe that this season will be the last. Of course, there can always be someone new on Joe’s target list. There can still be a plotline that involves Joe getting into deep trouble. Not losing hope, alright?!

5. The woman is not the mother

The last season finale portrayed Joe looking through a fence in admiration towards another woman. Afterward, fans started speculating whether she was Joe’s mother. Penn Badgley shut this theory down immediately, saying that she is not the mother. He also mentioned that that would be extra creepy, more than the show needs!

The identity of that woman is yet to be revealed. YOU season 3 will come with a lot of new directions the plot can take.

When the cold war was at its peak, there was no shortage of spies on either side. Not a day went by when there wasn’t a report of a spy caught on the side. Spies led short, adrenaline-rushing lives and their role, despite being secretive, can be considered quite vital.

Even during the years of American Independence, the first spy ring was established. This was known as the Culper spy ring, led by none other than George Washington himself. Even now, in 2020, information continues to leak. The most recent development being the new iPhone 12 Official Date and Price leaks.

Phone Price Leaks

An information-for-all era:

How do we know that the official launch date, for the iPhone 12, is lingering nearby? It was leaked! Once Apple made the official date public, we realized how right the leaks were. The official launch is a mere days away. However, the date was not even the highlight of the leaks. The astonishing part of the leaks, is the prices of the iPhone 12 and its variants.

From the iPhone 12 Mini all the way up to iPhone 12 Pro Max, each of the variant’s prices came as quite a shock to the audience. This was not just due to the fact that they were leaked. Rather, this was because they seem quite lower than what was expected. So what kind of move is Apple really playing here? How do we know that the price is justified for what is being bought? Let us see how they have managed to optimize.

The price gap:

So, after clearing out what was leaked, let us look at the prices themselves. The iPhone 12 mini is scheduled to be launched with a marked price of $649 for the 64GB version and $699 for the 128GB version. That being said, the iPhone 12 standard version is set to be sold at &749 for the 64GB, $799 for 128GB and $899 for 256GB.

Even when talking about comparison to iPhone 11, there are differences. The iPhone 12 costs $50 lesser at each price point as compared to iPhone 11. In contrast, iPhone 12 standard costs $50 more at each price point to its predecessors.

Even looking at the iPhone 12 Max Pro price, all of it adds up to a pretty good value. Its quite remarkable, honestly. This will shake up the market prices of competitors by a margin. The Samsung S20 Ultra is set to release at a price of at least $1299-$1399. The iPhone 12 Max Pro’s base price of 128GB storage, is $1099! How is that not a bargain on flagship?

Compromise and Features:

Of course, with the reduction in price, there come a few drawbacks. Apple had to reduce battery capacities. They also had to use low refresh rate displays. Not only this, they have removed the ear pods and wall charger from the box. This turn of events may upset users because those accessories are quite a bargain.

However, there are upsides where there are downfalls. Perfectly balanced, right? (Like Thanos). The phones have new edgy designs as well as the class leading A14 chip and a LiDAR camera. This type of camera can generate a 3-D model with greater accuracy as compared to a simple camera.

That being said, the writer of this article hopes the iPhone 12 satisfies users and provides them with a blissful experience. The iPhone leaks have provided good information.

Mutfi Qavi Defends Himself After Leaked Phone Call With Hareem Shah

Mufti Abdul Qavi has become a part of controversies more than once. This time, he’s caught onto the hook as a video of him with Hareem Shah surfaced.

What Is This New Controversy?

A video surfaced on the internet that went viral in which Mufti Qavi can be seen on a video call on Whatsapp. Hareem Shah is calling him the worst of things, saying that he contradicts Islam and everything else. However, he responds very casually, saying that everything that she says will go over his head. In other words, he is not bothered!

The Same Qavi, Different Woman

Previously, his videos and images surfaced with the late Qandeel Baloch. Whether they were released deliberately or they were leaked, it is still unknown. However, in the pictures, Baloch is seen making poses while Mufti Qavi sits calmly in the background.

Another video of him also recently surfaced in which he’s seen dancing with a Korean woman. And it gets worse; his cap is also off! 

A Past One Would Want To Forget

After his alleged involvement in the Qandeel Baloch case, Mufti Qavi was also arrested. His judicial remand lasted for over two weeks. When he was being brought to the court in handcuffs, he had a Tasbeeh held tightly in his hands.

However, during this process and because he underwent a lie detector test, his health deteriorated for which he had to get several tests done.

Mufti Qavi or Muft Tharki?

Mufti Qavi was going to be interviewed and, understandably, ridiculed. The interviewer is throwing one pun and snide remark after another, and Mufti Qavi’s response is strange for two reasons.

Either he does not have a firm grasp over linguistics and does not understand what is being said about him, or he does not care! He also denies all the controversies and scandals, saying a lobby has been created against him because of his views on Modi.

The interviewer says these women are of your daughter; then, he asks whether we should call you Mufti Qavi or Mufti Tharki and so on. His response is evasive and too naive— he begins talking about how he makes a “schedule” for his week. Absurd right?

What is right and what isn’t is unclear yet, but we’re hoping truth can come to light soon.

Rihanna Apologizes To Muslims Fans After Receiving Backlash

Rihanna, the pop sensation and brains behind Fenty Beauty, has confronted her mistake. The star has apologised but is it worthy of acceptance— who’s willing to forget and who’s willing to forgive?

The Star Apologises

Rihanna took her Instagram stories to write a heartfelt apology to her “Muslim brothers and sisters.” She clarified her stance that she would never intentionally or deliberately engage in the ridicule of any religion or its components. Moreover, she takes full responsibility for her negligence and promises that this shall never happen again. 

See the story for yourself!

What Was She Criticised On?

Rihanna received significant backlash after her latest lingerie show for Fenty x Savage. This was because models were strutting in two pieces while a song that contained verses of Hadith played in the background.

The Muslim community not only called out the famous singer for her irresponsible use of the song but also the composer. 

The Composer Of The Song Apologises

Coucou Chloe, the woman who composed the song “DOOM,” also came apologizing. Her music was released over two years ago. It was an incredibly problematic song because mixed in the beats are clips of a scholar narrating Hadith on the day of the judgment. Hadith, being as sacred as it is, was misused here.

Here’s what she said:

Are These Apologies Genuine?

Would Rihanna have apologized if this did not mean that her brand would suffer a loss? It is about the image, isn’t it? People not only started bashing her but also begun to vow never to purchase from any of her brands again. Indeed, Muslims around the world constitute a large chunk of her sales.

So how can we ever tell whether this apology was heartfelt or just a necessity? Regardless, it’s done now, and many people have accepted it also, including one of our own.

Feroze Khan’s 2 Minute Fury

Feroze Khan has taken it upon himself to be as vocally active as possible nowadays. The star is trying to speak up on several issues that matter, the veracity of which is a topic for another day. He also felt it his duty to tweet, “You are filth,” directed to Rihanna.

However, soon after Rihanna’s “apology,” the roses of forgiveness started blooming (if you’re catching our drift).

Comsats Students Revolutionizing The Outdoor Advertisement In Pakistan

comsats students

Breaking-ad is Pakistan’s first smart outdoor digital advertising agency launched by graduates of COMSATS, Lahore. Keeping in view the geopolitical growth of the city, Breaking-Ad has proudly entered in Lahore’s entrepreneurial space.

Through constant research and analysis on new marketing trends, our team at breaking-ad is now delighted to unmask new horizons in the world of advertisement. Our startup works as a liaison between the sellers and potential customers.

While working with us, brands can get instant recognition in their desired neighborhoods within the city. Our Advertisement smart-screens are installed within the ridesharing partner’s cab, such as Uber, Careem, and others. Lahore is divided into nine zones.

Our geofencing-based app installed on the driver’s mobile device recognizes when the vehicle enters the coordinates of the designated zone and starts playing the relevant Ad for the specific brand. Or this process can be carried out manually depending upon marketing requirements submitted by the clients.

For as long as the vehicle stays in that vicinity, people notice the moving Ad visuals firsthand and are more engaged and curious to explore the offer.

Here’s how Breaking-Ad has left traditional ways of outdoor advertisement in question:

  • The digital screen can be used for endorsing multiple brands at once or during several times of the day, unlike fixed billboards.
  • Breaking-Ad provides run time analytics to the clients how their campaign is performing across the city.
  • Our Analytics team keeps sensing consumer behavior from time to time and helps the clients deciding hyper-targeted regions for campaigns.
  • Our services are highly customizable and cost-effective
  • Our business model generates an extra income stream for the drivers who sign up for a part-time or full-time partnership with us.
  • We are the first introducers and only original name in the country for a ridesharing Advertisement venture.

Brands have been making their presence felt by the consumers both on digital and print media. Most of their spending is ignored or forgotten simply because it is all over their face every time.

People also know this because an internet ad is shown to everyone separately on their mobile phones or laptops based on the cookies they send. Since there is little to no expense involved, there are millions of them.

On the contrary to this, outdoor advertisements are open to everyone at a time and have some evident investment involved in the physical set up; therefore, they can’t be unreal. Hence people are more likely to engage with what they see, and they become a real prospect for the company at the end of the day. Accordingly, Breaking-Ad has adapted a central Guerilla Marketing model that doesn’t push your product to any random walker. Instead, it grabs the attention of people where it is needed the most.

After seeing an exceptional response in Lahore this year, Breaking-ad now aims at expanding its presence throughout the country very soon.

Hassan Gets Exposed For Cheating And Twitter Is Roasting Him

It all began last night when a girl by the name of Yemeem exposed Hassan for cheating. She tweeted her entire side of the story and attached audio notes that her cheater boyfriend and his best friend sent her. Initially, when she took the story to Twitter, Hassan reportedly started blackmailing her. But now a vast Twitter family is standing by Yemeen and roasting the guy.

The Yemeen Hassan Story

It is a long read but let us summarize the story for you. So somewhere at the beginning of the lockdown, Yemeen met Hassan and started dating him. They met twice in this time, but both times they were with someone. And after that, the country went into lockdown mode. They were not able to meet up even after Hassan’s repeated invitations. The invitations, however, indicated that he wanted to meet with her alone. Yemeen mentions in the tweet that it was very indicative that he tried to get physical in the relationship.

It’s all here in the tweet. Have a read:

While they were dating and Hassan kept asking her to meet privately, he went on a trip with a female friend and did not tell Yemeen. When she found out, she started contacting him, but he ghosted her. So she went on to get his best friend, Umar. Instead of addressing the issues, he labeled Yemeen for having insecurities and started giving her advice on how to be more understanding if she wants to save her relationship.

After that, the guy in question contacted Yemeen himself and apologized somewhat cryptically. He attempted to seem like the better man here by keeping his voice stable and low. The words were slightly like this:

“My definition of cheating and your definition of cheating are different.”

Uhh, no, sir. Cheating is cheating regardless.

Twitter Roasts Hassan

Now, you can imagine that Twitter wouldn’t just leave Hassan after what he pulled. So someone rightly guessed what the Twitter family would do with him.

And the rest of us were, well, preparing popcorns and getting ready for the memes that were going to come our way.

So let’s look at some of the best roasts.

1. Political help, wow!

But after trending on Twitter, Hassan can be expected to ask for help.

2. Bollywood has a scene for everything

Someone edited the ‘Jab We Met’ scene where Aditya encourages Geet to curse her ex. Now Geet is Yemeen and Aditya is all of the Twitter family. I believe they would happily teach her some cuss words too.

3. The Unboxing Kids

Remember the unboxing kids who found wastepaper instead of a drone after ordering online? Well, their description for online shopping, according to @gayomarlic, suits Hassan’s character too.

4. Did you listen to Umar?

In one of the above tweets, you can hear Umar defending Hassan. Foul language aside, this scene from Bollywood does define Umar’s faulty logic.

Well, Hassan did get famous. But let’s hope he does not react dangerously to Yemeen because fragile masculinity, when hurt, screams the loudest.
