Dupattas, remember those niffty things? I wear jeans, but when I’m wearing desi clothes I keep my dupatta on me. Okay forget the little things called sleeves. It’s worse to watch even the older women get up into that stuff.

Here, you see women dressed up like it’s the Oscars (but not really, those gowns are a little iffy), but unlike when watching the Oscars every time the camera sweeps up on bared shoulders and open close-up of cleavages - I cringe. Take for instance the HumTv awards, or rather any recent award shows (I don’t know that many, I honestly don’t watch a whole lot of television) in Pakistan, or even Pakistani “fashion” shows (seriously, how can you call only wedding clothes an entire fashion? But I’m digressing - please don’t kill me :P).

I agree with Nida’s point of view wholeheartedly, but upon reading this article and looking at the trailer I just had to comment (very first comment here, can I hear a YAY?).Īlthough I agree with Nida, I have to say that the attitudes in the Pakistani entertainment have grossly changed in the past decade – not only the entertainment, but also our society, especially the “creme de la cremes” who’re unfortunately also the only ones who are in the limelight (ever) and hence the only ones for the rest of the younger generation to emulate. Hey! Just wanted to put in my two cents worth :)

This is the double standard which I was pointing too any such scene by a female artist becomes a headline but such act from male doesnot even considered for a single liner ticker in our media. I had never point at you instead I want to raise a point here that when our media has done so many programs where Veena malik, meera has been defamed and criticized for working in indian films in intimate scenes, there was not a single liner criticism for our male actors like ali zafar from any of media persons, or social website or forums or magazine instead these are being praised. Like i remember nadia khan saying that ali zafar is doing a wonderful job in bollywood when talked about london paris newyork. I was only highlighting that our male artist has also done such intimate scenes like Ali Zafar and also momi rana in film “ek second jo zindagi badal de” but sadly they were never ever criticized, infact film of ali zafar was a success in pakistan and also he was much praised for his work in the film on social networking forums, sites, media, and even largest selling magazines like akhbar-e-jehan. Being shirtless is no objections at all, but being in intimate scene is a different story altogether. The thing which i mentioned was about intimate scene of Ali Zafar in film london paris newyork, please note for male actors there is a difference in being shirtless or being in an intimate scene. See i neither written that we should promote or encourage the intimate scenes of Sasha, nor did i said that such exposure on screen is a sign of being liberal and modern. Sister NZ, i totally respect your point of view, we cant compare apples with oranges. Fair enough, Sasha has got her first break with Yash Raj Films which itself speaks quite much about the intimate scenes she agreed to do. The news about having Salma Agha’s daughter as an emerging talent was welcomed by most of the readers few hours back but her fan following within Pakistan is in danger if we take the previous trends into account. About 70% of the audience hates Veena Malik for her boldness and this means the end of her career in her home country. It has been seen that Pakistani actresses who try earning respect with indecent ways in India lose their career in Pakistan as Veena Malik is a good example of this. Pakistan is a country having 60% of the liberal people who are at ease with some romantic scenes been shown on screen but the fact still remains that being a Muslim country, the audience want to see their celebrities following at least some lines called “limits” on-screen and on a serious note even the law of the country disapproves the anything that becomes a source of promoting vulgarity. There is nothing new about the story as it is becoming more like a trend that Pakistani actresses go to India and take the name down of the country by selling themselves on screens, whether it is Meera, Veena Malik, Sara Loren or Sasha Agha now.
