When JUNAID JAMSHED AKBAR was born, his mom at his aqeeqa, placed him in my lap and said “Lo sambhalo apnay bhaanje ko!”. He was a quite bonny wee child and a quiet teenager later. He always remained aloof from family gatherings but had great yearn to learn things.
During his dad’s posting at Islamabad…these four young lads got together and started doodlinking on heir spanish with the shyest of them–Shahi, making noises by composing ultay seedhay notes till they caught the eyes of Shoaib Mansoor..then posted at PTV Rwp/Islamabad…and came “DIL DIL PAKISTAN”.
Ayesha bought a revolution in Junu’s life and after remaining undecided and decided…Junu finally decided to become a missionary. Not only did he…but his dad, his mom, his sis and his wife Ayesha except his two brother…one of which is settled in Austria married to a girl from Vienna.
Junaid Jamshed sagga mamoonzaad bhai…is settled in Mumbai. He is a known TV artiste there. His name is ALY KHAN. His other sagga mamoonzaad Amiruddin Jehangir–also came to limelight playing Quaid-e-Azam in PTV’s docu-drama “Jinnah Se Quaid Takk” directed by late Mohsin Ali.
Junaid’s mother Nafeesa is my cousin as well as niece (though elder to me) and his dad Jamshed Akbar has been one of the finest Air Force official of Pakistan having retired as Group Captain in 1990.
SAIF ALI KHAN s/o MANSOOR PATAUDI is my great nephew.....!
HOW?
Nawab Mansoor Ali Khan's Dad Nawab Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi's Mother BANO BEGUM is my father Jamiluddin Aali's step-sister (same father different mothers) hence blood relative also.
When Saif came to Pakistan some years back for a show a Arabian Sea Country Club with Sushmita Sen and others---he called my Dad on phone to extend his respects on his Dad's instructions. He said much as he wished to visit my Dad at Clifton-Karachi, he was too occupied with the show and on security hazards. He also said that he knows a lot about LOHARU khandaan and has read its historical facts on websites but has been unfortunate to meet seniors and elders like Dad.. a direct descendant of LOHARU a Princely State some 3.5 hours drive from Dehli in Haryana.
I met Saif at Zee Logo function at London and later at Dubai. He met me warmly and we are in email touch regularly.
If you still scratch your head---my next submission will be how I am closely associated with Dilip Kumar and Salman Khan....
Raju sahab, showbiz ko choriye, Aali sahab ke baray mai likhiay. Tell us more about his relationship with Ibn-e-Insha, Ashfaque Ahmad, Qudrat-ullah Shahab and peers of his time.

**I can’t say as to how many from SHOWBIZ are already on this forum with pseudonomes but barring a very few–many of the TV artiste are not PC compliant and dont know a leg about emails or internet. **
Junaid bhai has been one of the greatest inspirations.
About the Loharu family, i think there is also some connection with the royal family of Bhopal? Is JJ's dad a son of a descendant of the Bhopal family? And do you by any chance know this Late gentleman Brig retd Mirza Hamid Ali Khan?
(Some interesting reason why I ask, will let you know shortly. )

NO...Jamshed Bhai is not from BHOPAL. Shehryar Mian, former Secretary Foreign Affairs/Chairman-PCB is from Bhopal.
Brig. Hamid Hussain (Piyare Mamoon) the former Chairman-KMC is my mother's distant yet close---cousin. His son Mohammad Hussain was my school mate while Ahmed Hussain is married to former SEVP-UBL's daughter and his daughter is married to Riaz Khan. We know the family very closely. Hamid Mamoon's wife hailed from Hyderabad Deccan. They have a close proximity with Loharu Family.
