saw the show with iman! wth! iman looked upset throughout the whole show! and shaista was asking such stupid and pointless questions...sometimes it makes one wonder whether she has a brain or not cause she certainly wasn't using it! and manzar sehbai indirectly criticisizing iman was just wrong! the poor thing was trying to explain why her dance sequence didn't look all that good and it made sense when she said she was only given 1 hour to prepare for the dance where in comparision indian actors are given 5 days to prepare a dance sequence.
completely agree with you. I think Imaan is good friends with Nadia Khan and it looked like she doesn't like Shaista much (can't blame her). She even told her at a couple of occasions "Shaista I won't expect you to ask such a question" LOL
I can't believe they are letting Shaista host with her Super Crappy questions and the rude and endless interruptions - so annoying to watch!

What questions did she ask?
I only saw the last 30 mins of the show, Iman looked so bored....and thin as if she's sick or something.

she was asking Imaan what expectations she has from the movie and Imaan so rudely responded that she never has expectations from any of her projects etc. She kept on asking the same question "ghooma phira kay" which was annoying.
Then she asked the guy playing the father inane questions like "maar khila ke maaza aaya, kitni maar khilaaye" etc. Argh don't remind me it was just painful to watch her nonsense.
@ Rukhsarbibi: i agree. totally painful to watch, iman was put on the spot by shaista repeately when she kept saying how sick, weak iman looked in the song/previews and so did some callers, i think that made iman defensive. she kept rolling her eyes at that senior artist who had earlier yelled (almost) at iman for saying she worked under difficult circumstances with no choreography and limited time, sounds so unprofessional. the old guys said we all did but we are not complaining, instead of promoting the movie they were talking about irrelevant things thanks to shaista who wanted the dirt basically, instead of talking about their performances but more into how they LOOKED. she should host a cheesy gossip show, more suited there. i was so happy when Iman made the comeback that people here applaud kareena kapoor for being size zero but when a pak artist loses weight they tell her she looks weak and sick, i clearly remember shaista going all ga go over karina when she had lost all that weight.
No matter how talented our actors are they will always reveal an unprofessional side. Two senior artists were attacking Iman Ali who is old enough to be their daughter (granddaughter judging by Sehbai's appearance). That Manzaar Sehbai...who on earth is he? He was acting so eccentric and couldn't even handle Shaista's stupid questions. His outburst at Iman was totally unfair and the show was full of tension because of it.

Iman is a famous celebrity, she was on a live show, there was nothing so shocking or unexpected if someone asked about her weight.
Had Iman did her research instead of sulking like little girl on TV, she would've known that Kareena was appreciated for her weight loss because she came out and openly shared her secrets. She admitted upfront that yes she's been on a super healthy and monitored diet, maintained an exercise regime and religiously did yoga, whereas our celebs only know how to feel insulted over every private question. Besides unlike Iman, I don't think Kareena looked sick with all that weight loss. So I thought it was pretty expected that her fans would want to know about her health and well being.

the woman has MS...thats her open secret for weight loss and weakness! happy now? what do you expect her to say? "oh look I have a disease and therefore I look weak and sick" not everyone feels comfortable announcing their problems to the world all the time. She had already mentioned that she was extremely sick during the time of shooting. Plus, I can't stand how shaista rudely said to her "aap bohot kamzor lag rahi theen movie mein" and if the caller really wanted to know about her health she could've simply asked "aapki tabiyat kaisee hai" instead of attacking her weight! the way you say something matters!
Secondly these morning shows really need to stop talking about weight issues...majority of people in pakistan don't have adequate food to eat so "weight issues" are the last thing on their minds right now.
Manzar Sehbai & Zaib Rehman ..kal kai bachai ..why they all are after imaan ali:) and YES iman ali is pakistani kareena kapoor.caller was a big nut i must say:hoonh:

Knowing about someone illness is no reason to be happy. Perhaps you need to stop taking it so personally.
I know she has MS and in her last appearance in Nadia Khan's show, she very politely and wholeheartedly talked about her condition, and she was really appreciated her raising the awareness and taking a very positive approach.
I would've appreciated her had she stick to her old words instead of snapping like a school girl and pretending to be our answer to Kareena Kaporr, just because she couldn't be bothered to answer it truthfully she thought let me promote sickly looking physique as a result of extreme dieting as fashion statement, because that whats she did by drawing silly Kareena comparison.
Just like the caller could've worded her question better, I think Iman too could've phrased her answer better. And lets admit it, these weight/fitness questions will follow wherever you invite a female and celeb and ask a woman to question her. Invite Julia Roberts on some morning show in UK/USA and expect anyone to ask her about her weight related question. Lets not pretend that the world comes to end if someone had asked our Iman Ali about her weight. These celebs and cricketers sound like total idiots when they try to compare themselves with India stars, because Indian stars no matter how cheap and low they get in their movies are 50xs more well mannered, professional and well spoken in their interviews than their Pakistan counterparts.
^have you even seen the interview? its the host’s responsibility to set the tone for the show, to have prepared, well thought out, well worded and intelligent questions to make guests feel comfortable instead of repeating dumb, nonsensical questions to put them on the spot and make them feel defensive. shaista had actually seen the whole movie the night before at the premiere, and all she wanted to talk about was Iman’s looks in the movie and asking manzar sehbai repeatedly about the beatings he gave the women Iman did answer shaista’s question politely the first time when she said the song was shot under difficult circumstances with absolutely no choreography and in 1 hour thus it showed on her face, after which she was attacked by manzar sehbai and then that moronic caller repeating shaista’s question again, so you cannot blame iman for being defensive since she seemed to be under attack from everywhere while the host sat enjoying the friction and refusing to talk about the actual movie! as others have also said, it was a painful thing to watch for us, imagine what Iman was going through actually sitting there!
Ok I must admit I didn't watch the show, but I did pick up the Kareena comment, beating expalanations and the woman's bogus lecture on masala film/art film.
you should definitely watch the show. she wasn't comparing herself to kareena...she was pointing out that when you gain a little weight people start calling you fat and when you end up losing weight they start calling you weak so she was saying that we should decide on somewhere in the middle of what a good weight is!
"result of extreme dieting" lol no....her weight loss is NOT a result of extreme dieting! MS medication can severly suppress one's appetite and fatigue as well as frequent tremors can cause eating difficulties. Managing weight especially when you are experiencing symptoms and relapses of MS becomes that more difficult.
People in pakistan should realize that celebrities are humans as well and shouldn't be so insensitive towards them....they have feelings too just like everybody else. She became defensive because she was continously being attacked from the host and from the other guests. Her reaction was perfectly natural!
Iman did answer shaista’s question politely the first time when she said the song was shot under difficult circumstances with absolutely no choreography and in 1 hour thus it showed on her face, after which she was attacked by manzar sehbai and then that moronic caller repeating shaista’s question again, so you cannot blame iman for being defensive since she seemed to be under attack from everywhere while the host sat enjoying the friction and refusing to talk about the actual movie! as others have also said, it was a painful thing to watch for us, imagine what Iman was going through actually sitting there!
