MaanSal and Lolz Studio - Together Making A Change


I suppose, it all started when i saw the Facebook version of a video as Youtube is banned in Pakistan, on my newsfeed via MaanSals' page. I was like, lets click this button and find out what is it all about? I actually clicked it, though i had no hopes or expectations cause Pakistan had lost its way long time ago.



When i watched it, i was actually amazed/happy/excited. I ran into my sisters' room and made her show the video. It was a mashup of VALENTINE/DENTIST/STUDENTS. Salman from Maansals' and Muzamil from Lolz Studio were a part of it with many others. I was quite happy to see that these are the people who aren't from any other country but from our Desi roots. They know the desi stuff and they delivered it quite  naturally.

They are now, separately uploading videos of their own interest on Facebook and are connecting hell lot of Pakistanis' together. And i think, that goes of a round of applause. *CHEEEERS*

I like the way Salman names the videos; Annoying things that men do, Annoying things that girls do and he might invent more. Just go to his page and hit up with the videos.

Whereas Muzzamil, he has this passion for the photography, which is not like others, he goes towards creativity and patches it up with reality. I remember i took his pictures for my presentation and i got the marks just cause of the fact that i mentioned his name and courtesy over there. He deserves that !

Muzamil ran the election campaign awareness program too and is helping people now and then and even celebrated his 22th birthday in celebrating with them by helping them.

People, go on and click on their links and stay connected. God bless you both and people like you!

The Circle Of Life


Friends,relatives,movies,studies have we ever tried thinking of something else other than them?. I mean we all are so busy trying to impress, the people around us and giving them this fake image of ours, which is not even us, I mean sometimes we are just doing stuff not because we want to, but because everyone else is doing that. We follow the fashion and trends just to be in that category of high class or amongst the people who follow the latest stuff going on. Sometimes I think we have lost our selves and are living the life, how others want us to live. We are stuck in this act so much that we don't even enjoy the essence of life. Have any of you enjoyed the sun rise,the slow motion of nature, the mild wind and sun peaking out from the clouds, those shades of arrange and yellow, I know it might sound dramatic to you but have you ever?. And if you have, then you and I both know how much fun real and peaceful it is, cause at that very moment there is no one to judge us, what we are wearing, how we look there is no one to impress with our expensive gadgets, there is no one who would talk about "Gucci" or "channel". All I want to say is that start living for yourself, its never too late to do the right thing. Go on make choices not considering the opinions of others,live to live not to impress, cause its your life and you are the one who is going to face the consequences, others would just pass their comments cause you don't matter, they themselves is always their first priority.
