Why Is It The Right Time To Ban TikTok In Pakistan? Have you ever been told you are too old to understand TikTok? If yes, you aren’t probably too old, but you are rightly mature to steer clear of the platform. It is a time bomb in the making, or if aptly put out – a time bomb waiting to be blown off. Everywhere you see, especially in India and Pakistan, TikTok is all the rage among the youth. But, at what cost? TikTok & Mental Health Among all the other nuisances, the effect of TikTok on mental health outdo all. The problematic nature of the platform is as such that it has become a reason for suicide, social isolation, depression, bullying, and narcissism. It is a double-edged sword. Those who are popular, tend to develop narcissistic values and would do anything to make sure their popularity chart is only on the rise. On the other hand, those who are striving to make sure they do reach the same fame develop tendencies on depression, isolation, and self-esteem issues. TikTok, Bullying & Pakistan Recently, with a few TikToker’s videos being leaked on the internet, there is no denying that it has the tendency to take lives away. From nudes to body shaming, from unethical content to moral debauchery – there is nothing good in the TikTok content we see in Pakistan. While the world appreciates TikTok for its tendency to provide a creative outlet, more than half the Pakistani populace has decided to make it a place for bullying, harassment, and whatnot. There might be an ounce of responsibility and awareness with the app being used by people around the world, but in Pakistan, it is not. It has become an ultimate meme-generation platform with nothing but baseless content, nudity, bullying, public shaming, and wastage of talent among a long list of other problematic issues. BAN TIKTOK! Now coming to the point at hand, we feel that it is the right time to ban the app in the country. The app in itself is one of the most creative social media to exist, but with the users that we have in Pakistan, it isn’t the right one to be used. From Minahil Malik’s personal videos with nudity being leaked to Alleena Fatima being body-shamed and harassed, our users have given every reason to jeopardize lives and self-harm. When the government can ban games like PUBG, it is about time the use of TikTok is banned as well. Our people have absolutely no sense of responsibility while using social media, hence we can expect the loss of more lives due to the pressure, online bullying, and offline harassment. We do not want to use more of our creative and talented population just because there are some (read many) people who do not know how to use social media like social media. Hence, the government and the digital right entities should now sit to decide if the app is more important or the lives of your youth.

Now that life is somehow getting back to normal after the Corona tension, the celebrities have resumed their work as well. Mehwish Hayat, Sana Javed, and many others have now started traveling again. Sana, in her recent post, shared a picture of her after travel and it is an eye-opening message for everyone. What Was Sana’s Message? Sana Javed was traveling for a work trip when she had to wear a Hazmat Suit and a complete PPE kit for the flight duration. The precautions are absolutely necessary because the pandemic isn’t over yet and mingling among people from all around the country or world can still be dangerous. Though we don’t know what her destination was, Sana took on a complete gear to ensure that she was safe to and from the 2-hour journey in which interacting with people was necessary. She Salutes Front Line Workers Wearing the PPE kit made her realize that is wasn’t easy for the healthcare and the other front-line workers to be wrapped up during the heat throughout the day. This is why she shared this heartfelt message on her Insta post. “Had to wear this for 2 hours on a flight. Can't imagine how our doctors and all the medical front line workers wear this all day in this heat. “I salute you for your hardwork, efforts and sacrifice. Let’s keep practicing social distancing and follow SOP's. It’s not over yet. Let's be cautious and careful for our loved ones and help our health care system so it doesn't collapse.” In the end, she also shared a prayer for everyone who is affected by the pandemic and wished them health and recovery: “Sending love and prayers to everyone effected and everyone fighting this pandemic. May Allah help us all AMEEN.” Her post ended with her crediting the PPE kit to the designer Asim Jofa who when the pandemic started took this upon himself to create the kits and Hazmat suits for the front-line workers who were in a shortage of it. Here is her complete post along with her picture in the complete safety kit on the airport:

Mahira Khan is the diva of the nation. She is one of the very few celebrities that are not only loved in Pakistan but are recognized internationally for their persona as well. People are always haunting the internet to find more about her personal life, son, alleged relationships, and any new projects they can get a hint of. But this time they have found something else, and this has started a new opinion war on the web. There Is A Doppelganger In Town Did you think she is Mahira Khan? If you did, congratulations, you are in the first half (let’s say minority side) which feels that they have found Mahira’s look-alike. Recently, an Instagram account posted the picture of Kurasah Anwer Sheikh and asked people if she looks like Mahira, and the internet has been flooded with opinion since then. More than half thinks that she might have the features, but she does not resemble Mahira while the remaining think that she is her copy and can easily pass for the superstar herself. Who Is Kurasah Anwer? So, who is this girl who has taken the internet by storm? Looks like Kurasah Anwer is going to be the new talk of the town. She is an up and coming model represented by Citrus talent. Kurasah is already working on modeling projects for quite some time, but her claim to fame just might be this one incident since people have been flooding her account since the speculation of Mahira and her being a look-alike started. She is also popular on TikTok and is active with her quirky and fun videos. She has braced the covers of various magazines and is a brand ambassador and endorser for quite a few names. Let’s just say she is one hardworking girl willing to make her mark on the industry. Mahira’s Take On Her Doppelganger Since the entire fiasco started, people have been commenting on Mahira’s posts to take an opinion and a response from her as well. Obviously, we know how people on the internet are. They just want to see if their opinion matches that of Mahira herself or not. But she hasn’t commented or responded to the matter at all. Kurasah herself has remained silent on people comparing her to Mahira and starting a debate over it. Lookalike or not, we think Kurasah Anwer is a beautiful, talented girl who is her own personality and can reach heights in the future. We wish her all the luck!

Kristen Stewart To Become ‘Princess Diana’ In Her Biopic Kristen Stewart is all set to become Princess Diana Spencer in her biopic Spencer. The Steven Knight script focuses on the life of Diana when she decided to call her marriage with Prince Charles quits and move on with her life away from the prying eyes of royals. The movie is going to be based on the final weekend that takes away the life of Princess Diana. What Is ‘Spencer’ All About? The Spencer will be focused on the drama that took place in the life of late Princess, slated to become a Queen, over three days. It will be zooming in on her final Christmas holidays in the House of Windsor in their Sandringham estate in Norfolk, England. The production is expected to begin by early 2021, and the release is slated for early 2022. Kristen Stewart As Princess Diana Kristen has been casted as Princess Diana already. The director of the movie, Larrain, while announcing his decision to cast the Twilight actress said: “Kristen is one of the great actors around today. To do this well, you need something very important in the film, which is a mystery. “Kristen can be many things, and she can be very mysterious and very fragile an ultimately very strong as well, which is what we need. The combination of those elements made me think of her. The way she responded to the script and how she is approaching the character, it’s very beautiful to see. I think she’s going to do something stunning and intriguing at the same time. She is this force of nature.” Praising Kristen further and how she adds value to the film, he said: “We’re very happy to have her, she’s very committed. As a filmmaker, when you have someone who can hold such a weight, dramatic and narrative weight just with her eyes, then you have the strong lead who can deliver what we are looking for.” Audience’s Reaction On The News We agree that Stewart will be an intriguing choice to play the Princess. She has a haunting look on her face that turns into different emotions seamlessly and flawlessly. As a person, she is unapologetic and does what she wants without fearing society. She has worked in different roles, but this is definitely going to be the biggest and the most challenging role for her. However, the audience’s reaction to this news has been mixed. A lot of people think that Stewart has robotic expressions, and she cannot portray the charisma and elegance of the late Princess, especially when she was going through an existential crisis and the most difficult part of her life. We can only wait and see how Stewart’s performance turns out to be.
