No, said Imran Khan
Was Prime Minister Imran Khan ever offered a role in an Indian film? Probably he was in his young days when he was a celebrity, having taken Pakistan cricket to new levels and having built an image for himself as a social A-lister in the West. It seems that none other than the late Indian actor and film-maker Dev Anand had pursued him to do a role in one of his films but Imran Khan had gracefully declined the offer.
Mahira, Mehwish Admired
Mahira Khan and Mehwish Hayat have made it to the ‘sexy’ list for 2019 of the UK weekly Eastern Eye. India’s Alia Bhatt was declared the sexiest female face of 2019 as per the magazine. Mahira Khan has also represented Pakistan at the Paris Fashion Walk. Perhaps Mehwish Hayat had the judges going her way because she has also bagged a Tamgha e Imtiaz at home though a lot of people think many other actors also deserve to be recognized in this way.
Nusrat Jehan’s New Role
India’s Nusrat Jehan is a member of the Indian parliament from a West Bengal constituency. She was not elected on a BJP ticket but that of TMC (Trinamool Congress Party) led by Mamta Bannerjee. Nusrat Jehan is also an actress and despite being elected an MP, with all the attendant work, she still wants to do at least two films a year. She has been a successful Bengali actor and wants to do the lead role in the forthcoming film Asur. She is still best remembered for her role in Khoka 420.
Humayun Saeed
as Batman
There were rumours circulating that DC Comics (Detective Comics) wanted to sign Humayun Saeed as their next Batman. The Pakistani actor seemed to have caught the attention of DC Comic. He plays the main male lead in the TV serial “Meray Paas Tum Ho”. The DC Comics franchise was said to be in talks with Humayun Saeed for the Batman role but this never came about. It would have certainly been a proud addition to Pakistan’s entertainment industry, had DC Comic finally not chosen Hollywood actor Robert Pattinson to depict the new Batman.
