Rehan Shahzada Blogs learns about a post by Atrium cinemas in Karachi, that states the Pakistan censor board has banned Saif Ali Khan's upcoming release Agent Vinod in the country.
Talking about the reasons for the ban, it has been learnt that Agent Vinod has few Pakistani link ups. Saif had earlier revealed the film's Pakistani connection by stating that his character Agent Vinodwill be travelling to Pakistan to solve a mystery.
Interestingly Saif's girlfriend Kareena Kapoor, who is also a part of the film, will be playing a spy for the Pakistani government. This ban might disappoint many Pakistanis who were eagerly looking forward toAgent Vinod's release on March 23.
There is no need to worry! I am talking to Pakistani fans because same thing happend with "The dirty Picture" which was later cleared by Pakistani censor board so wait for another miracle.
Amir claims that he was tricked into bowling two no-balls at Lord's after being told he was the subject of an International Cricket Council investigation.
Here is a complete Interview of Mohammad Amir after spot-fixing exclusively to Sky Sports!
Amir originally maintained his innocence before deciding to plead guilty, and has said that he was asked to bowl the no-balls by Mazhar Majeed, who was also imprisoned for his part in the conspiracy, on the eve of the Lord's Test.
And Amir claims that Majeed used a fictional ICC investigation, supposedly launched after phone calls between Amir and a businessman known as 'Ali', to dupe him into taking part in spot-fixing activities.
Amir said: "He (Majeed) said that he told him (a friend of Majeed who told him of the supposed investigation), 'bro, put an end to this case, shut this file. Whatever you need me to do, I'll do it. Whatever needs to be done, I'll do it. I'll do anything. But Amir's name should not be mentioned.
'Favour'
"I said, 'and then.' That's when he said, 'can you do me a favour?' I asked him, 'what favour?' he replied, 'do two no-balls for me.' I said, 'what?'
"And there's something crucial that I'd like to say at this point. I'd like to say how stupid I was.
"I mean on the one hand he was telling me that a report about me had gone to the ICC, and on the other hand he wanted me to do two no-balls for him."
He added: "I was panicking so much it didn't even occur to me how ridiculous it was."
Amir also said that Butt and Majeed took advantage of his earlier involvement with 'Ali', who claimed to be a friend of Butt's and had introduced himself to the young bowler in Dubai.
"He (Ali) said that he was often in Pakistan, and that I should give him my Pakistan number so that he could contact me when he was there," Amir said.
"I gave him my contact details because he was Salman's friend. I thought it would be fine to do so."

India
and Pakistan renew their cricket rivalry after almost a year's break when they
take part in the Asia Cup one-day tournament starting in Dhaka on SundayThe Official Promo of Asia Cup 2012 is here:
Buoyant
Sri Lanka and hosts Bangladesh, the other two teams in the fray to determine
one-day supremacy on the continent, play the opening match at the Sher-e-Bangla
stadium in Dhaka.
But the
focus is already on the March 18 tie, the first between the arch-rivals since
the high-profile World Cup semi-final at Mohali last March, which India won on
their way to clinching the showpiece title.
Pakistan
captain Misbah-ul-Haq, whose team were blanked 4-0 by England recently, said
the match against India would be a highlight.
"Against
India it is something special because of the supporters of Pakistan and
India," he said.
"Everyone
wants to enjoy India-Pakistan rivalry and that adds to the pressure. But we
want to play good cricket and improve our own performance. It's going to be a
tough tournament."
India
severed cricket links with its neighbour after the deadly 2008 Mumbai attacks,
which New Delhi blamed on militants based across the border in Pakistan.
The
Asia Cup will be the first assignment for new Pakistan coach Dav Whatmore, the
former Australian international who guided Sri Lanka to World Cup glory in
1996.
The
tournament provides Indian batting superstar Sachin Tendulkar with yet another
opportunity to record an unprecedented 100th international century.
The
world record-holder has gone a year without a three-figure knock since scoring
his 99th ton in a World Cup match against South Africa in Nagpur last March.
India
hope to make amends after their disastrous tours of England and Australia,
where they lost both the Test and one-day series.
India,
who won the last Asia Cup title in Sri Lanka in 2010, have rested hard-hitting
opener Virender Sehwag and key paceman Zaheer Khan, but will feel at home on
the low, slow pitches in Dhaka.
Sri
Lanka, who finished runners-up to India in the World Cup, have produced
encouraging results after reappointing Mahela Jayawardene as captain and South
African Graham Ford as coach.
They
not only knocked India out of the recent tri-series in Australia, but also gave
the hosts a close run before losing the best-of-three final 2-1.
Bangladesh
are boosted by the return of opener Tamim Iqbal, who was initially dropped by
the country's cricket chief before being added as a 15th member of the squad on
Thursday.
Each
side will play the other once in the round-robin league, with the top two
advancing to the final on March 22.
Let's hope Inshallah! This time Pakistan will emerge as a victorious and called to be "Asian Champion" at the conclusion. Ameen!
Every thing seems to be possible in this modern era, morning shows are now acting like Indian-soap dramas and Paki-politics where you don't know that what is going to happen next? You need to prepare yourself for the next stage where a character who was died in any sort of "Fazool" accident in his past, Suddenly appears like a ray of a morning sun with more powerful character or the politicians who have been humiliating each other suddenly become a friend of each other.
Recently, Confirmed by our sources that Geo is applying a new strategy for a morning show attraction by getting Shaan to co-host along with Nadia Khan, who had done morning shows for the television before. According to inside-sources, Shan will be paid a salary of Rs.6 million a month for it according to an official person working at the channel. The morning show is scheduled to begin soon.
This show would replace Shaista's morning show , which is now not as popular as it has been in the past. She herself was the replacement of Nadia Khan.History repeats itself!! The reason for bringing Shaan on the project was to maintain viewership and to do something different.
The news came to media almost a week back,GEO TV(Official Facebook page), shared the page of “Nadia Khan Show”. This update made us to think and when we asked our
sources regarding it, it was confirmed by them.
On the other hand,Maya Khan who was humiliated in a controversy after an episode of her morning show “Subah Sawerey Maya Kay Sath”. Now she is back on Ary again. She was seen in Express News show “Frontline with Kamran Shahid” where she said that no one heard her point of view and she has done nothing wrong.
Maya Khan also revealed that whole episode which sparked controversy was planned and the couples which were seen in the footage was paid actors. The question is that if Maya Khan has solid evidence then why she is not going to courts and why is not suing Samaa TV management.
Check out the new drama queen "Maya khan" come-back Interview!
Some of the Pakistani websites claim that the show of Kamran Shahid was pre planned and now Maya Khan is planning to become a part of Express TV and may be in coming days she will also host a morning show on Express entertainment but all speculation led to none and she has finally joined Ary.
All these activities suggest that media channels have no moral ethic values, they do what they want, they haven’t set any laws for them and to be very honest they won’t;( Pemra should interfere on this matter because both “Khanz” have had a past to get-them involved in individual’s personal matters. All we need a good, positive and “free of dramas” morning shows because these “fired bullets” would only hurt Pakistani media image in international world.
Few days back, I was in my BBA class listening a very famous song “The black eyed peas I gotta feeling” with lips were following the song just like “lip-dubbing”.My class—mate came to me and asked “What are you doing mann?”. (I don’t know may be he was blind). Can’t u see? “Lipdub”. He anxiously watched me for couple of seconds and then asked me a question after scratching his head!!! What is Lipdub? I was surprised to know that he was 100% empty as far as concern about the history of this term and later I explained him that what actually the lipdub is?
Maybe some of you are not aware of this term “Lipdub” which is going to happen for the first time in the history of Bahria University Karachi. May be some of you thinking about Lipdub, some event sponsored by “lipton”. Actually it is not! “Aao bahrians tum ko sunaey Lipdub ki Mazaidar kahani! Aik tha raja or Aik thi rani”. Well lipdub has nothing to do with this “Farigh” statement. Let us back to our track.
A lip dub is a type of video that combines lip synching and audio dubbing to make a music video. It is made by filming individuals or a group of people lip synching while listening to a song or any recorded audio then dubbing over it in post editing with the original audio of the song. There is often some form of mobile audio device used such as an MP3 player. Often they look like simple music videos, although many involve a lot of preparation and production. Lip dubs can be done in a single unedited shot that often travels through different rooms and situations within a building. They have become popular with the advent of mass participatory video content sites like YouTube.
“Kingwood High School's Audio Video Production class produced Taio Cruz's Dynamite Lip Dub. Over 300 students and administrators participated in the making of the video”.
I really liked this Lip dub. This school chose a really dynamic song to go with it, and it really works in this Lipdub. As soon as the video starts, you’re in it. Maybe a bit too much from the very beginning, an introduction might have been nice. In each scene, there are lots of people but everything seems to have been well prepared and organized. They all seem to know what they have to do and it’s no mess, which can happen in some Lip dubs with many participants. They wear costumes or types of clothing which gives this Lipdub a nice theme.
Jake Lodwick, the co-founder of Vimeo, coined the term "lip dubbing" on December 14, 2006, in a video entitled Lip Dubbing: Endless Dream. I won’t go with the history of lipdub too long because I don’t want to mess-up with the description of the topic which is relevant to entertainment.
Recently CBM organised a successful lipdub video which is by-far a great achievement for Paki-university, with having more than 70,000+ hits on youtube so far, I think they did a tremendous Job. On October 21st 2011, seven hundred students came all decked out to pledge allegiance to the first university LipDub in Pakistan. Get ready to explore a wicked, crazy and rocking side of Pakistan. A Bahrian like you today has to prove his/her worth and needs to light it up like a dynamite.. cause baby you’re a firework!
A LipDub generally attempts to bring together students to interact with peers they likely never would have met, promote Bahria University globally, while strengthening the bond with our corporate community locally and act like a video diary or a time capsule for all Bahria University students to carry back with them after they graduate from this university.All these events are leading bahria to a skier with the minds of BBA-8C behind all this plan, New talent is coming-up with Bahria University bagged the highest number of awards in IBA youth festival, We can say that bahria is changing, progressing and moving.
The most awaited event of the season "lipdub" is ready to serve. All the registration are being taken place from 12th of March.
So you all bahrians! Are you ready for change? Are you ready to make this video memorable? Let’s go for it!!
