Indians never accept Pakistani singers

Now it has been passed many years when the Pakistani singers started singing in Bollywood films. This trend started by Mahesh Bhatt’s productions and Atif Aslam sang few songs in Indian films. But now we can see that how Pakistani singers have ruled over the Indian films. The biggest name of the current era is Rahat Fateh Ali khan. Rahat is making records of winning awards and number of songs sung for Bollywood. Competition always exists in every field of life whether it is sports or it is entertainment but when it is between Pakistan and India then it never remains competition but it becomes a form of war. There is no doubt that India is far away from Pakistan in film industry but on comparing each other on parameters of talent then there will be an equal competition. Whether they are actors, singers, dress designers, makeup artists, hair stylists, film direction or dramas, in every field both are talented. But the difference is that Pakistan film industry is not very mature and so the Pakistani singers never get platform to show their talent. Indian singers always blame to the Pakistanis that they should not be given chance to sing in Indian films but they always forget that the selection of any singer depends on the decision of film and music directors. Indian singers were also given a chance to sing in some Pakistani films. So it means whether it is Pakistani or Indian there should be no competition over selection in films. Especially when India had terrorist attacks, many Indian musicians and singers said that Pakistani singers should not be allowed to come to India. Some said that Pakistani singers don’t get a chance to become famous across the border so they come here to become famous by entering Bollywood or as terrorists. This kind of attitude makes us sad but still we take it as competition and our singers should not bother for such statements and keep on singing good songs and let the Pakistan be proud on them.

Hunza Valley – A Fairy Tale Land

Hunza is the most visited valley of Pakistan. It is a fairy tale land. It is surrounded by beautiful rugged and snow capped mountains. Hunza is a small town on Karakorum Highway only a 100Km from Gilgit. It is the first main stop from China to Pakistan.

The central part of Hunza known as Karimabad. It is a town of 6 villages. The first main village is Aliabad. There are prominent and outstanding views of  Rakaposhi Mountain. PTDC Motel Hunza and other small hotels are located here. Just above Aliabad there are Altit and Baltit villages, the heart of Hunza. Altit & Baltit are famous for its interesting bazaar and two Forts. The Baltit fort has recently been converted into a guided museum. Duikar is another place in Hunza at a height of 10000 feet above sea level. This is an amazing spot to see sunrise. There are 8 peaks above 7000 meters. Each gives spectacular view of the sun light as sun rises.

Short History of Hunza:

Hunza was formerly an independent state, bordering China to the north-east and Pamir to its north-west. The state bordered the Gilgit Agency to the south and the former state of Nagar to the east. The state capital was the town of Baltit and its old settlement is Ganish Village. It was dissolved by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in 1974.

Hunza was an independent for more than 900 years. The British gained its control and the valley of Nagar between 1889 and 1892 followed by a military engagement of severe intensity. The ruler of Hunza Mir Safdar Ali Khan fled to Kashghar in China. The British appointed Mir Jamal Khan as the new Mir of Hunza under the rule of British Government

The traditional name for the ruler in Hunza was Thum. It is a respectful appellation used the people of Hunza and Nager. The ruling family of Hunza is called Ayeshe (heavenly). They are called so from the following circumstance. The two states of Hunza and Nagar were formerly one. Tradition relates that Mayroo Khan, apparently the first Muslim Thum of Nagar some 200 years after the introduction of the religion of Islam to Gilgit. He was the father of twins Girkis and Moghlot. The twins are said to have shown hostility to one another from birth. Their father unable to settle the question of succession, divided his state between them, giving to Girkis the north, and to Moghlot the south, bank of the river.

Both Thums are still addressed as Soori, as a title of respect. This appears to be the same as Sri, a commonly prefixed to the names of Hindu princes in India. The Thum’s wives are styled ghenish which is almost identical with the original Sanskrit word for mother, and their sons are called gushpoor.

Amir Khan retains WBA title


Pakistani born British Boxer Amir Khan ensured there were no more losses for him at the end of a costly week by stopping Paul McCloskey on a cut in the sixth round on Saturday night.

The World Boxing Association (WBA) champion made a fourth successful world title defence by technical unanimous decision after a cut above McCloskey’s left eyebrow, caused by a clash of heads, prompted referee Luis Pabon to stop the fight in the sixth round in front of 18,000 supporters at the MEN Arena.

Khan began the week losing an estimated one million pounds after a TV dispute ended in UK broadcaster Sky TV refusing to screen his fight, but the Englishman stayed on course for bigger pay-days.

Khan shook McCloskey with a right in the fourth and increased his attacking bursts in a lively fifth round. McCloskey survived a furious assault from Khan in the sixth before a clash of heads opened up a gruesome two-inch cut stretching from the forehead to left eyebrow.

Referee Pabon called in the ringside doctor, who immediately called for the fight to be stopped, with the judges’ scorecards of 60-54 deciding the outcome by technical unanimous decision. The crowd booed as the scores of 60-54 from all three judges were read out and there were angry scenes in the ring.
