I think most of the time, they say vague stuff that are trending just to act like they have some insider source..

For 2/3 weeks I think she is trying to imply Sajal has started seeing someone

They made a 5 minute+ ad for promoting a city or maybe just the mall?

I think it's a gated community ad just like the mahaj ad but their script was much better than this one...

out of all the actors whose English or English accent is good ?

i believe I have seen fahad Mustafa and hania speaking good English .

kubra, ahad and ahmed have good English because of obvious reasons

durre 's English seems good but then have seen few people trolling her.

does communication skills in english matter?

No it doesn't, your pronunciation and enunciation in Urdu matters. I find it extremely fake when people who have lived their entire lives in Pakistan have British or American accent. Case in point, AAA.

dure went to an elite school for girls in lahore so i am surprised to hear people troll her english. i think she had said in interviews before that her urdu is not very good.

SH covered Umair Jaswal's wedding. Aamna apparently spoke to Sana Javed some days back who told her that she and Umair had been unhappy 1-1.5 years into the marriage and they mutually decided to end it. The whole process was very smooth. After that she met with Shoaib and everything...

ajeeb sa complex hai logon ko english ka le kar.

so what if some actors don't have good english or have paindu accents or pronounciations. they work in urdu language dramas and what should matter is their urdu diction and accent. people ask why an actor playing a rich person not speaking with a posh accent but what about why the hell this middle or lower class character is rolling their rs in urdu or not sounding authentic to the neighborhood/city, we never ask?

also english is typically not most people's first language (sometimes it is their third language after the regional language and urdu). in hw, actors like selma hayek, sofia vargra, antonio banderas, javier bardem, penelope cruz have really strong accents and don't necessarily pronounce english words correctly. yet i have not seen people criticizing them, shaming them or trolling them.

in fact, what's this obsession with actors' offscreen communication skills. imean it's a good thing to have but is not a job requirement. in hw, people who are most fun and charismatic on talk show circuit are not necessarily the best actors. joaquin phoenix is a great actor but has terrible communication skills. if rajni kanth or prabhas doesn't have the gift of the gab like srk, does it make them less of a superstar. sri devi could barely talk in ivs in her heyday but churned out great performances.

only in ptv i see this obsession with equating stardom and talent to offscreen communication skills in english. actors are not beauty pageant contestants or politicians or emcess who need to be able to have excellent oration skills or ability to speak fluent english.

You can take British slavery out of the subcontinent but you can't take it out of the people of the subcontinent. Btw, her English is absolutely fine. Please come out of your slavery mindset 😉

Nah, I believe in practical life, most of us had English as our first language. I dont get the comment of British slavery, when you also follow the system they laid out

Speak in Urdu in PSF when you are watching & discussing Urdu shows .

No language is superior over others but English is a globally spoken language. Whether you think it’s slavery or not you communicate in it anyway.
