The telethon transmission of Geo TV (that lasted for three-and-a-half hours) with Indian film star Amir Khan and Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan made a great contribution for the cause of Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, raising a total of Rs 80 million.

The two chief guests-Amir Khan and Imran Khan-discussed important issues at this unique programme, and a number of people from different countries, including Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, the United States and Dubai, made phone calls and paid glowing tributes to Amir Khan and Imran Khan for their devotion to the cause of treating cancer patients. These telephone callers announced their donations for Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital.

Actor Aamir Khan and former Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan will star in a live telethon on Pakistan’s Geo TV this evening. Viewers will call the channel on designated phone lines, speak to the celebrities – ask them a question – and donate a sum of money towards Imran’s second Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, to be built in Karachi.

Yousaf Salahuddin’s Haveli oozes cultural magnificence on this cold wintry evening. An unassuming façade, which could easily be missed from the road, opens into a wonderland of history and tradition. Cradled in the glory of the brilliantly lit-up Fort, it basks in the wonders of two worlds: the traditional, which encourages the use of old oil lamps in a power breakdown as opposed to a generator and the modern, which inspires him to build a comfortable living area in his bedroom and bathroom both. His rooftop springs color for Basant and his basement has become the breeding ground for many well-known musicians today. His courtyard is open to public, whether to host a mohallah wedding or shoot a Zille Huma music video. And he’s incomparable as a host, the courtyard becoming an impressive welcome mat to dignitaries from all over the world-Mick Jagger, Madhu Jaffery, Aamir Khan and Boney M included. Yousaf has led many celebrities to stardom, especially musicians and though he as won a bit of inevitable infamy on the way, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that Mian Salli embodies the Power of One.

The marriage of former Pakistan cricket star Imran Khan and UK socialite Jemima Goldsmith has ended.

Former Pakistan captain Imran Khan has officially separated from his wife Jemima after nine years of marriage, according to Imran’s family.

Jemima (aka Haiqa), who is the daughter of the late British millionaire Sir James Goldsmith, has two boys by Imran.

“Imran and Jemima have ended their marriage,” an official of the cricket hero-turned-politician’s Pakistan Tehreek-i- Insaaf party confirmed to Press Times of India.

The statement released by the Pakistani political party is the climax of events that have taken place over the past few months.
