– Short film Haal shows the military’s might.
While the film was written by Khan and co-writer Mehreen Kasana, it was produced by Ali Mohsin Shaheed Gardezi with original music by Walter Miar.
Is it okay if I felt a little proud of myself? Glad to see Haal getting positive reviews for a...

And thank you, mama, for being the badass mom you are. Thank you for sharpening our pencils when we were leaving the gate to go to school and telling us, “Write your lessons with this and stab anyone who tries touching you with it in the throat. Multipurpose, mere bachon.” All three of us daughters had three terribly sharp pencils. I was 13, the middle one was 11 and the youngest...

My usual desi dad posts are humorous because my dad is just a funny guy but I’d like to share something serious today.
In my own experience, I think it is extremely important for not only a mother to be supportive of their daughter during bullying times but for a father to be clear in his support for the girl. I say this in the sense that he supports her but doesn’t coddle her...
