Shar Pasand is a popular Pakistani prime-time drama serial airing on ARY Digital, produced by IDream Entertainment. The drama is directed by Aehsun Talish and written by Sara Syed. The cast includes Nauman Ijaz, Hareem Farooq, Hira Mani, Affan Waheed, Ahsan Afzal Khan, Nadia Afgan, Zuni Sheikh, and others. The story revolves around the fraudulent and cunning Farasat, an elderly man who manipulates and interferes in others’ lives.

In the recent Episode 37 of Shar Pasand, Sanam returned home from out of town. Upon arriving, she caught Farasat and other visitors taking over her house and influencing her husband, Fida. She sent the guests back home, got into an argument with her husband, and slapped him for being manipulated by Farasat. Watch the slap scene:

Sanam’s slap to Fida is receiving both positive and negative reactions. Many viewers are praising it as a much-needed slap, while others believe that despite Sanam being right, she should have behaved more politely.

Viewers are also calling out Fida’s behavior. One wrote, “Fida deserved that slap! He’s so stupid!” Another wrote, “When Sanam has repeatedly told Fida not to be friends with Firasat, why is he not paying any heed to it? She dislikes Firasat and has explained many times about his nosy and cunning behavior in ruining everyone’s life, but Fida seems to be the goody-goody type unnecessarily.” A fan said, “A girl should be strong and bold like Sanam.” Another said, “Hareem Farooq as Sanam delivered a fabulous performance.” One stated, “I sometimes think that Fida is Sanam’s wife.” Another said, “Sanam behaved very badly. She shouldn’t have behaved that way.” Read the comments:

A clip of Hina Afridi’s podcast with Azfar Rehman is doing the rounds in which she got emotional while remembering her late mother.

Talking about her mother, Hina, Afridi said, “It was so difficult to cope with my mother’s loss; it’s almost impossible for anyone to forget about their mother because when she is alive, you know there is someone behind you praying for your protection. Azfar, I miss my mother so much. You know when my drama was going on air, Ammi was quite excited about it. She used to say that she will watch it but.. (Hina cried in the middle). I was so relieved when she was alive that someone prayed; now I feel afraid. I had a great relationship with my mother; I used to trade her that you aren’t sick. I was quiet when I heard her death news. I can hide my emotions; I am strong like her. Like her, I can handle any tough situation. I got matured after her passing because I have to take care of my father, who is a heart patient. He is almost 70, very old, so I try to be composed and strong in front of him.” Watch here:

The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is set to begin from March to May 2026 with an expanded format. This year marks a major shift in the league, as it has transitioned from its traditional draft system to a historic player auction model. Currently, player auctions are being held and multiple sports personalities are taking part. However, the PCB is facing severe public backlash for allegedly snubbing big names like Umer Akmal and Ahmed Shehzad due to reported grudges, as claimed by the cricketers themselves.

Recently, Kamran Akmal expressed his anger at the PCB for not considering his younger brother and ace batsman, Umer Akmal, in the PSL auctions.

On Har Lamha Purjosh, when host and cricketer Shoaib Malik said, “Today, Kamran Akmal is angry as he also tweeted for Umer Akmal,” Kamran Akmal replied, “I am not talking about my brother’s selection. Selection is a later story — he wasn’t even considered for the auction by the officials, which is an injustice to a player. He wasn’t even given a chance.” Basit Ali also added, “He tweeted after I asked him to. Umer Akmal is a fine player, it is injustice with one of the best middle order batsmen. He should have given a chance. We want to ask the chairman PCB who gave the names for the auction. Have they ever played cricket? The selection is done on the basis of favouritism” Watch here.

Taking to his Twitter, Kamran Akmal wrote, Unfair system…, disappointed ! Why was Umar Akmal’s name not in auction???Read what Kamran Akmal tweeted :
