Gohar Rasheed Talks About Rejecting “Neerja”

Gohar Rasheed Talks About Rejecting “Neerja”

Gohar Rasheed is a Pakistani actor mostly known for his work in drama serials like “Digest Writer” and “Mann Mayal”. The actor has also worked in movies like 021, Yalghaar and is currently coming up with yet another feature film Rangreza.

In a recent interview Gohar talked about his journey so far, the actor revealed that his father wasn’t exactly ecstatic about him joining the entertainment industry and was pretty sure Gohar would fail and return home in a few months but God works in mysterious ways and from Karachi’s theater scene Gohar ended up straight in the Best Actor nominees at the New York Film Festival for his movie Seedlings. Since then Gohar Rasheed has become a household name.

In his interview Gohar talked about his faith in God and fate, that one can try his best and leave the rest to God, he also added that tho our nation in general is racist and prefers “fair skin” anyone, no matter how gorgeous, can’t and will not survive without craft and skill. The actor said that he loves playing “the baddie” but won’t mind playing the good guy once in a while to prove his versatility.

When asked about working in Bollywood the actor had the following to say:

“It’s a creative process, acting and film-making. So if I get an invitation with dignity and respect, I’d love to go. My only concern is that the script should be good and it shouldn’t pit me as ‘the Pakistani guy.’ I rejected Neerja for this very reason… because I felt that I was there as a token Pakistani actor which is not what I am about at all! I am more than just a namesake. If it’s a good collaboration, if it’s exploring my potential as more than just ‘that Pakistani actor in an Indian film,’ yeah I don’t mind.” 

 

We agree with Gohar through and through, art is nothing without dignity and sincerity, we wish the actor all the luck for his future endeavors because this industry deserves a better class of villains and he’s gonna give it to us (hard to miss but it’s a Joker reference).

Read Full Review of Drama “KHAN”

GEO TV’S MEGA DRAMA SERIAL”KHAN” IS REACHING ITS LAST EPISODE – CAN YOU PREDICT THE CLIMAX?
Drama Serial KHAN which is not powerful in terms of story but heavily loaded with some big names of the TV screen, Nauman Aijaz, Nauman Masoo, Shaista Wahidi and Aijaz Aslam. The male dominant character of Nauman Aijaz was the soul of the serial which was complimented by empowered and bold characterization of Shaista Wahidi as a politician.

Shaista Wahidi as a strong and independent woman who was a rape survivor and was sincerely and truly in love with KHAN justified her role throughout the series. The chess game of politics and twists and turns in the story sustained the audience’s interest and built curiosity which stayed till the last episode.
The characterization and storyline were critically picked and actors gave their best shots to justify their roles. It was a balanced combination of drama, thrill, action, and power, winning and losing throughout the season, mesmerizing the audience with the ups and downs in the story.

The charismatic yet dominating personality of KHAN grabbed audiences’ attention and the comeback of Nauman Ijaz on the TV screen in a powerful character dazzled the viewers.

 The producer Babar Javed, play writer Syed Atif Ali  and the director Faizan Ali Anchan released this mega hit for the television audiences leaving a long lasting impact of the strong script and storyline on the viewer’s mind.

The teasers revealed for the last episode increases the curiosity and trigger the urge to predict the ending however it is difficult to say that Sarwat will be able to forgive KHAN and accept him ignoring all the bitter truths and sufferings she has been through.

Can’t wait to watch the last episode of KHAN on Friday at 9:00 PM on GEO TV, the post last episode review will be published after watching the climax which is nearly impossible to predict at this moment! Stay tuned for more reviews.

UHT Milk Is Safe – An Awareness Program by Grow Healthy Pakistan & Pakistan Dairy Association

On October 12th, 2017 Grow Healthy Pakistan in collaboration with the Pakistan Dairy Association hosted a blogger’s meet up in Lahore.

The objective of the event was to work towards removing mis-perceptions wrongly associated with the milk in UHT packaging, by educating the public about UHT milk processing and packaging technology and how it is designed to keep milk safe without the need for any preservatives to be added.

All members of the Pakistan Dairy Association presented and reassured the audience about the great care taken to ensure the quality standards of their milk. Those in attendance were told about the modern labs with broad testing capabilities and experts who to continuously check milk quality from the point of collection to the point of sale before the milk reached the consumers. The campaign is to ensure and make the consumer aware about how packaged milk is fully traceable and it’s quality can be verified at any time by regulatory authorities as is now being done by the PFA on a regular basis.

Many people are also not aware that the common practice of boiling loose milk over several minutes at home to kill the bacteria, also destroys most nutrients present within the milk and thus lose its healthiness. Since long life milk has already gone through a controlled boiling process, there is no need to do boil and the healthy nutrients are thus preserved.

For the last 50 years, Long Life Milk (UHT) has become a regular staple in families’ homes across the world and can be termed as the most innovative technology used in liquid food process. Today the majority of milk consumed in countries such France, Spain, Italy, Turkey, Brazil and China among others is Long Life (UHT) milk and so Pakistan and Pakistanis are safe with its usage as well.
