‘Andaz-e-Sitam’ Urdu1 Drama Review: A Story With A Twist We Didn’t See Coming!

Andaz-e-Sitam is one drama that has kept us guessing on what will happen next. Wamiq (Agha Ali) and Ayat’s (Kubra Khan) story took a twist we didn’t think was possible for a Pakistani drama! Badboy Wamiq was sentenced to jail for kidnapping Ayat and we did not see that coming!

Instead of the usual, Andaz-e-Sitam follows a different approach due to the strong storyline by the writer for the show, Enam Hasan.

The story fast-forwards to when Wamiq is now out of jail and totally broke as his mother has been tricked into giving all his wealth to his ex-girlfriend. On the other hand, Ayat and Salman (Faris Shafi) are married but their relationship surely disappoints. We would have thought Ayat would have found love with the Romeo, Salman by now. We wonder when Ayat will realize what she truly means for Salman!

In the latest episode, Ayat finds out from her daughter about Wamiq being appointed as her new teacher and this has definitely put her at her wit’s end. She was hoping to keep it from Salman but alas, he walks in with perfect timing and is then upset as to why he was not informed about Wamiq’s return before.

Wamiq’s new avatar!

Iske dimagh mei koi sir Wamiq aa rahay hain. Every Thursday at 8:00 PM on #Urdu1 #AndazESitam

A post shared by Urdu1 (@urdu1tv) on


What we noticed in this episode is the change in Wamiq, is he moving away from his spiteful ways? The way he speaks to his daughter will definitely melt your heart. But after all, a part of us still wonders if all of this is just an act? We’ll find out in the coming episodes.

Urdu1’s Andaz-e-Sitam is directed by Ali Hassan and produced by Big Bang Entertainment. The story has been one of twists and turns and always leaves us anticipating for more!

Find out how Ayat is going to handle Wamiq being around her daughter at school and whether the two will come face to face? That is something we’re surely looking forward to.

Watch Andaz-e-Sitam every Thursday at 8 pm only on Urdu1.

fawad khan

Pakistani heartthrob and forever favorite, Fawad Khan is a superstar who has wowed us time and again for all that he does. Be it movies, dramas, modeling or performances he does it all with utter class! But did you know he was also a superhero in disguise?

Apparently, there was a road accident and FK made sure he was there to help out people as much as possible. The incident was narrated by Alee Sulehri on People of Pakistan and we could not be more in awe of the actor.

This is what Alee wrote in the post!

Suddenly a Porsche Panamera stopped on roadside and there stepped out Fawad Afzal Khan out of it!

He came and asked about the 3 year old and then with a piece of cloth he covered a female patient.

He offered to take that elderly female to hospital in his car because her ribs were most probably broken but in the mean time ambulance came!

In such scorching heat he was all in hands to help anyway he could and this thing made me like him even more and got him a fan for life!

 Urwa herself took to Instagram to share the news with her fans!

Let’s take a quick look at all the other 4 movies we will be seeing her in.

1) Rangreza

In 2017, Urwa signed her 2nd movie Rangreza by playing the role of Reshmi. The movie is a musical romance and she plays a kindhearted, soulful, beautiful girl. Her purity makes her rare; she is as pure as her name in the film. The movie garnered great interest owing to the classic love triangle twist.

Reckitt Benckiser Announces ‘Hoga Saaf Pakistan’ Campaign

Saaf-Hoga-Pakistan

53, 000 children die of diarrhoea in Pakistan every year which means 145 kids are losing their lives from a disease that should not take even a single life. These are not just numbers but a daunting reality.

Pakistan is a rapidly growing nation, racing towards economic and social development. However, even in the year 2017, there are 25 million people who do not have access to proper toilets.

Nearly half of the households do not have a facility to wash their hands with soap and water. These sad realities lead to severe unhygienic conditions promoting various diseases which include the menace of diarrhoea, a disease which can easily be prevented.

On Saturday, April 29th, 2017 – Reckitt Benckiser (RB) and a Private Channel announced their partnership on a national initiative “Hoga Saaf Pakistan” a pledge for a healthier, cleaner Pakistan.

The announcement was made at the 5th Hum Awards 2017 at the Lahore Expo Centre. The CEOs of both companies, Shahzeb Mahmood of Reckitt Benckiser and Duraid Qureshi exchanged dialogues on the big stage where they mentioned the dire need of coming together as a nation and improving the unclean and unhygienic conditions that give birth to diseases such as diarrhoea.

“RB has collaborated with them, pledging to ensure “Hoga Saaf Pakistan” so that preventable diseases like diarrhoea do not claim the lives of thousands. This is a cause very close to our hearts. It is very easy to point fingers as to whose fault this is, but being privileged enough, it is our responsibility to initiate this change and work towards a Saaf Pakistan. With the support of fellow Pakistanis, let’s make this vision come alive.” Said Shahzeb Mahmood, CEO RB Pakistan.

“Mil Kay Lagaeingay Jaan, Toh ‘Hoga Saaf Pakistan’,”- Shahzeb Mahmood

ABOUT RB

RB is a company with a history of over 150 years, operating in nearly 200 countries of the world. It is a manufacturer and marketer of branded products relating to health, hygiene and home.

Armeena Rana Khan Sparks a Debate On Eastern & Western Clothes!

The bubbly Jannan star, Armeena Rana Khan created a stir on the internet yesterday after she posted an interesting question to her followers through her twitter handle.

Looks like, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Noor Bukhari were not the only ones who wondered why celebrities chose to dress in western attire for Pakistani award shows instead of opting for traditional eastern wear. Khan also raised a similar question and got quite a few responses.

Here’s What Armeena Rana Khan asked on Twitter!

 

Many people answered with Pakistani celebrities should chose traditional wear over western in order to promote our country’s culture and originality.

This is what Armeena replied to the follower who got quite rude with her, 

” I just asked a question. Perhaps you need to read the statement properly. I’m not passing any judgement as I have worn the same too.”

She finally thanked everyone for their feedback declaring Eastern Wear as the Winner!

PIA Female Employee Attacks ASF Officer at Karachi Airport!

After the Islamabad airport fiasco, another airport fight occurred at the Karachi airport when a female employee of the Pakistan International Airline tried to slap an Airport Security Force (ASF) after he stopped her from entering the departure lounge.

The woman was identified as Ruqaiyyah Soomro and is working at PIA as an Assistant manager. Soomro has stated that the officer in plain clothes harassed her and that is why she tried to slap him. The national carrier PIA has already begun investigating into the matter. Controversies seem to have engulfed the airline, first with the sleeping pilot, then the cockpit scandal and now an employee being harassed.

As always there are two sides to every story and the ASF official says PIA’s female employee had an expired working card and her officer was situated on the third floor of Jinnah Terminal. However, the ASF official accepted that the way the the woman was stopped was inappropriate. While it was also reported to have attacked others that tried to solve the issue.

Ma 1954 – 2017

A post shared by Sanam Mody Saeed (@sanammody) on

Sanam has also tweeted “Ma” with a link to her Instagram picture.

While speaking to Mrs Saeed’s nephew, Nasr Saeed, he shared that she was a second mother to him, a brave woman, who was larger than life, all smiles, filled with integrity, which can also be seen in all of her children.

He shared a eulogy with us;

To my Dearest Chachi One only feels something is missing when someone passes away. We tend to take things for granted when people are alive and well, and with us at our disposal. Our very own Parween Mody Saeed, wife and Mother of 03, Chachi, Phuppo, Mumaani and a lot more to numerous people left us this early Monday morn. I was privileged to have spent whatever time I had with her, in her illness and in health. A larger than life character who always spoke her mind and never for once minced her words. In this hypocritical world, she stood a world apart. To the bravest woman, I’ve known, gone but never shall be forgotten. May Allah SWT bless her soul as she touched so many on this earthly abode. Allah Hafiz Chachi.

Brandsynario shares its deepest condolences with Sanam and the entire family for their loss, may Mrs Saeed rest in eternal peace.

4 Reasons why Rooh Afzas new TVC hit all the right notes

Advertisements are a necessary part of our life now. Whether we like it or not, ads have actually made our lives much easier. They make us aware of the latest offerings by our favourite brands. They keep competing brands on their toes, initiating a healthy contest that usually works in favour for the customers. In short, advertisements are crucial for both brands and their consumer markets.

Lately, however, ads have been mostly about glamorous casts, with larger than life sets, dance routines, music and of course wardrobes. People dressed to the nines are seen dancing away trying to promote everything from cookies to milk. While this trend was interesting at first, now it has become too similar.

Brands in order to stand out need to take another route. And one actually did. The new TVC of Rooh Afza is a like a breath of fresh air. Watch the TVC below:

Why Rooh Afzas new TVC should be applauded

1) An emotional heartwarming story of a father missing his daughter.

We Pakistanis are a very emotional group of people. We are expressive and like to make our opinions clear. As a result emotional stories resonate more with us. The bond between fathers and daughters are unlike any other. Rooh Afza made use of that. They created a heartwarming concept of a father missing his daughter, and sending her an object that was attached to a number of memories for them both.

2) Advertising done right.

The thing most brands today do not realize is that their brand identity and the message they want to relay to the audience should connect. Using a dance routine to sell flavoured milk makes little if any sense. This ad, on the other hand, has done its homework. Rooh Afza is a local favourite in most households. Many kids are given it mixed in milk for breakfast. People use it as a refresher after a long day at work. It is an absolute must have at aftar tables. In short, it is a drink families sit down and drink together. Rooh Afza knows its audience and with this ad they rightfully targeted them.

3) Viral factor with mostly positive reviews.

Thanks to the power of social media, it takes very little for something to go viral. However, when something goes viral, it can be both for wrong and right reasons. Rooh Afzas new TVC has started a conversation that is all positive. A quick look at the reactions posted on social media showed that people have been praising their efforts. Many used this opportunity to share their own stories. Some even said it reminded them of their own childhood. This is what advertising is all about! The ad was not something out of the ordinary. People related to it.

4) The right balance between product placement and storytelling.

Yes, the advertisements are supposed to be all about the products. However, in your face advertising is not the way to go anymore. The new TVC of Rooh Afza has managed to create the right balance between product placement and storytelling. Neither one empowers the other.

The advertisement was developed by RG Blue Communications.

The internet is buzzing with the news of Fuchsia- Google’s new operating system. Probability is that this ground-breaking innovation will power-up the next generation’s smart devices. It might even replace Andriod! Now we did not see that coming.

According to Ars Technica, Fuchsia will ditch the Linux coding and will launch “Magneta”

However, developers will need to redesign all those Andriod apps that are already available

See how its home screen looks like

fuchsia

There will be no app icons! However, apps will show in rectangular sections of the screen

Opened apps will hover on the OS

Unlike Andriod, time and battery indicator will be at the bottom
