weekly news round-up

Furthermore, the trailer for ‘Aik Hai Nigar’ has Pakistanis waiting impatiently for the release of the telefilm, Sonya Hussyn called out Lux Style Awards for their double standards, Kristen Stewart is winning our hearts with her British accent and Season 5 of Money Heist is finally here!

Congratulations Haider Ali! You’ve Made Pakistan Proud!

The Tokyo Paralympics began earlier this week in Japan despite delays due to the pandemic. Haider Ali and Anila Baig represented Pakistan in the discus throw event. Anila was seen in action on August 29th and Haider on September 3rd. We are glad to report that not only did Haider Ali perform well by achieving his personal best (a throw of 55.26m), but he also made history by winning Pakistan’s first gold medal in the discus throw event at the Tokyo Paralympics 2020! Though this isn’t his first win, having won both bronze (2016) and silver (2008) medals in the past, it is his first gold medal! We wish you success in the future, keep on making Pakistan proud!

Shehzad Roy In The News For Setting The Record Straight & Honouring Canine For His Service To The Nation

Earlier this week, Shehzad Roy made an appearance in the news twice. The first appearance was when he shared a viral video of children creating music with cans and containers and asked for their whereabouts and was successfully able to locate that they were from Hunza. However, days later, Bollywood actor Anupam Kher re-shared the video on Twitter where he mistook them as children from India and applauded their talents. Roy was quick to correct him and tweeted that these talented kids were from Pakistan and he was in the process of sending them all the musical equipment they needed to hone their talent(s).

Sir @AnupamPKher Thanks for sharing the video I shared a few days back. You say that these talented kids are from Bharat, a humble correction, these kids are in fact from Hunza, Pakistan. I am in touch with them and have sent them all the musical instruments they need. https://t.co/KBxzEIFBvV

His second appearance in the news was when he took to Instagram to honour the memory of Hawk who was a canine in the Pakistan Custom’s K-9 drug detector squad for the past three years and had passed away recently after losing his eyesight whilst performing his duties in the noble fight against narcotics. Shehzad Roy went on to explain that this condition wasn’t uncommon amongst sniffer dogs and that their service and sacrifices for the country should be appreciated and celebrated. Thank you, Shehzad Roy, for shedding light on all that sniffer dogs do for our country, they play an integral role in keeping us safe and we thank them for their service!

Sonya Hussyn Calls Out Lux Style Awards For Double Standards

After the Lux Style Awards 2021 nominations were announced, Sonya Hussyn was disappointed that her drama, ‘Saraab‘, had failed to make the cut. She expressed via her Instagram stories that she had seen a trend that dramas were solely nominated based on their popularity and the high viewer ratings instead of the quality of their content. ‘Saraab’ aired on Hum TV and was centred around patients suffering from schizophrenia.

“It is very disappointing to see that a project like Saraab did not bag even a single nomination at the Lux Style Awards 2021. We talk about the need for meaningful content that also educates the masses with real issues but when [such content is] finally created they’re hardly ever recognised/nominated for awards. Aren’t those double standards?,” questioned Sonya Hussyn on Instagram.
