Will not invite Mahira Khan if I ever host a show: Mikaal Zulfiqar

British-Pakistani actor and former model Mikaal Zulfiqar, who has been a part of several Pakistani shows and a few Indian and Pakistani films, says that he would not invite Pakistani actress Mahira Khan to his talk show if he were to host one.

Zulfiqar was in conversation with host Ayesha Jahanzeb on his talk show when he said so. When the host asked him which actor he would not invite to his talk show if he were to host one, he mischievously said, “Probably Mahira Khan, because she won't come.”


Zulfiqar added that he has approached the Raees (2017) star for several projects in the past, but she never accepted any.

“I have approached Mahira for many projects, but she is very hard to get,” he said.

For those not in the know, Mahira Khan and Mikaal Zulfiqar have previously worked together on the successful Pakistani show Shehr-e-Zaat, directed by Sarmad Khoosat.

In an earlier interview, when asked whether he would want to work with Mehwish Hayat or Mahira, Mikaal Zulfiqar, “Both, they are amazing, but if I have to choose one, I will go for Mehwish because Mahira won’t work with me.”

He continued, “I felt like she won’t work with me although we have shared the screen in Shehr-e-Zaat. You can ask Mahira Khan whether she will work with me or not.”

What Britain’s ban on strangulation porn really means and why campaigners say it could backfire

Highlights:

  • Government to criminalise porn that shows strangulation or suffocation during sex.
  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
