Zardari Also A Pakistani Film Actor

Well reading the title you must be thinking about that I will be commenting about the post benazir scenario quoting Zardari’s gestures or you might also think that I will be writing on his blurred policy about the reinstatement of the Judges.

Then it is not. I am here to tell a fact about Zardari as a real actor of movies. So here is the face.

Majority don’t know, that Zardari is passionate towards movies. Being a son of industrialist Zardari has somehow managed to act as childhood of Late Waheed Murad in a film “Salgirah” in 1969. It was Golden Jubilee, and was produced by Naima Hassan and Directed by Qamar Zaidi.

This movie also has two popular songs of Late Madam Noor Jehan.

1- Le aayi phir kahan per, kismat hume kahan se, 2- Meri zindagi hai naghma, meri zindagi tarana

Zardari With A New Medal

Musharraf is being celebrated in many areas of the Pakistan, for leaving the hijacked democracy since last 9 years and 10 months. His resignation has vacated a seat for the most powerful person of this country. Upto this we should remember that Americans have showed their full co-operation with the new Pakistani Government, so far in the charge handed by democracy.

New vacated post is surely bargained by PPP government with America or I should say American Interests, for ?

Answer is simple the savior of PPP, who got this party in his dowry from his wife. But his wife is not alive now, and he is the only one to run the PPP, as PPP people says. I am talking about the Asif Ali Zardari (Bhutto, can be added any time as his son is now a Bhutto or we should it is already done by Paki and international media, Widower of Bhutto)

Well the same PPP has nominated Zardari for the next President, will he be our new dictator ooops .. i meant President, and are you ready to accept him or will be chanting the slogans against him in coming years Go Zardari Go !

Any one with the answer ?

These horrid sounds are considered usual every year on the sacred night of Shab-e-Barat. But the illeterate people or i should say parhey-likhay-jaahil are busy in such things too.

We should pray a lot and lot on this night and beg for the forgiveness from our Lord Allah. As from scriptours this night is night of re-writting the matters of the next year for every person on earth and Ulma says re-writtings depends upon our deeds of the past year.

Singh is King with Sleeping Authorities

After a numerous films imported from India to Pakistan from last year, Singh is King, an Akshay Kumar starer it is probably the most successful bollywood film in Pakistan. Online resources are marking it a good success over the future of Indian films bussiness over here across the border. Pakistan will now be taken as new bussiness venture to invest and collect the right price of a movie.

The late coming print which arrived on saturday ruined the chance to collect 1 Crore alone from our country.

This should be encouraging that Pakistan is showing the censored prints of the Indian movies, but at the same time it bad to observe about the deceving the authorities by cinemas in playin the banned, censored songs as the Geet Mala before starting a movie in any cinema.

All those sexy dances with lingerie beach bikinis indian girls have some how succeeded to appear on the screens. This is clearly showing the intent of the cinema owners to welcome the uncensored movies soon. It should be taken as a threat for our people and the popping up the nude culture, for which india is popular.

Sleeping authorities should be volunteerly feedbacked regularly to come up with the strict regulations.

Who is a Sindhi?

‘You are not you and I am not I

What are you and what am I?’

I HAVE been reading the poetry of Shaikh Ayaz, who, the writer and critic Asif Farrukhi says, is for Sindh what Garcia Lorca is to Spain, Pablo Neruda is to Latin America, and Nazim Hikmet to Turkey.

As I perused Farrukhi’s excellent translation of Shaikh Ayaz’s work, I came across the couplet which resonated with a question I’ve been asking myself for a long time now: who, exactly, is a Sindhi?

When I was young, the only marker of Sindhi nationality I was aware of was that one had to speak Sindhi. Having grown up in America, I returned to Pakistan still quite young and was always asked by curious relatives: can’t you speak Sindhi? Their shock and horror when I replied in the negative (in English no less) has always stayed with me, and most Sindhis today take it as a point of pride that they should speak, understand, and promote their own language. So at the very basic level, a Sindhi is someone who can speak Sindhi.
