Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

I must say it was a good idea to have people call in and text message to raise funds for the cause. May Allah (SWT) make it a success, help those in need, and reward the donators, ameen.

However, what sort of bothered me was the amount of attention Manisha Koirala (sp.?) received by Moin Akhtar. I felt Moin Akhtar really ignored the other guests and all his questions and comments were mainly geared towards Manisha. If such was the plan, then why invite others to begin with? Did anyone else notice it as well or was it just my observation?

What is it with Paki obsession with kaali indian actresses? :rotfl:

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Oooo … burrnnnnnnn..

Pakis will sit on it I guess.. :hehe:

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Shabash blitz you killed it before it even began.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

did they show it on geo USA?
What other actors were invited Sadiyah?

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Rukhsarbibi, they mainly had Pakistani TV actors and actresses, such as Rubina Ashraf, Shafi Mohammad, Fakhre Alam, Humayun Saeed, Sajid Hasan, and the like. Of course they weren't all there at once. However, Moin Akhtar was the host and Manisha stayed throughout, while others took turns.

Yes, it was on GEO. Not sure if it was the American one. I think it was being aired from Karachi.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

I think its because she was a special guest having flown in from India to help raise funds. You'd expect the home stars to do their bit for their country but when a foreign star does it, that too from Bollywood, its inevitable they will get more air time.

Shes a crowd puller no doubt, so its not surprising she is being given so much exposure considering the obsession with Bollywood stars our people have. They showed Manisha arriving at Karachi (?) airport, and heck, you should have seen the crowds that came to greet her (or more like, to catch a glimpse of her). Our people can be so stupid at times, pushing, shoving and fighting each other just to see some indian star, no matter how hot she is.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Well some of our people get really emotional and have the tendency to get carried away. On the contrary, Moin Akhtar should've been more respectful to other local stars and should've spoken to them as well. At one point, I believe he asked Rubina Ashraf as to what she would like to say to Manisha for coming to Pakistan for the cause. It was just weird.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

First she is not kaali and second she is not Indian but Nepalese. I am not any big fan of hers or Indians movies but I just thought I should make some correction.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

hahaha! I hate when they do that. Or when they ask every single indian actor, if they would like to come to Pak LOL…like what are they going to say on national tv, NO?

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Is she that nepali princess that wanted to be in indian movies? (sry that’s how I see indian bolly actresses.. :D).

Please take care in posting pictures. Inappropriate pics should not be posted on Gupshup. Thanks

You know the drift. People like ash and urmilla (on screen magic) when in real life they are not so good looking.
I don’t care about one or two movies but the obsession paki people have upto foregoing part of their life (especially true in Pakistan where people seems like have nothing else to do than watch indian movies) is unhealthy!

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

:rolleyes: Blitz please calm down

That was very nice of her to take part in the charity program. I think more Indian and Pakistani celebrities should gather to raise funds for the victims of the quake.

Even Indian people do the following when they see their stars. I’m sure Manisha is quite use to it by now.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

^ But also kindly look at what direction India and Pakistan are taking!

Whether like it or not, india is leaving behind pakistan and will be a rival power bearer alongside china in the next century!

Take of it as you will Pakis! :rolleyes:

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

^ You are giving too much credit to India. There is no way India is any threat to China on the economical front in nest few centuries.

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

I was horrified to see Manisha’s makeup… :eek:

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

I missed the telethon. can you please tell any interesting tid bits about the show like who talked the most sensibly among the guests etc?

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

^ And offcourse Pakistan will takeover India with its superr army! :devil:

Abbay, take your head out of the sand and look around! :rotfl: :blush:

Where did I say that?

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Sadiyah.. i think moin akhtar was doing that for reason.. u have to welcome a guest and make sure that person doesnt feel that he/she in different country.. and i dont think he ignored any body.. he introduce all of them and did question most of them.... secondly.. i think manisha was very nice enuff to come for this cause..and the way she carried her self was awesome..

Re: Manisha at MKR fundraiser on GEO

Desi Churail, what Manisha did is commendable; however, Moin Akhtar paid more attention to her than anyone else and that I feel is wrong.

lillyy, I only watched for about 30 minutes or so. Therefore, can't really judge who spoke the best or the highlights of the program, sorry.
