Mathira reveals age and cosmetic procedures she has undergone

Pakistani television host and actress Mathira has candidly spoken about her age, cosmetic procedures, and her views on ageing during a recent appearance on Inqilaab Voice’s podcast The Hot Seat. Known for her outspoken personality, the television star shared personal details while addressing beauty standards, self-confidence, and life in the public eye.
Mathira has established herself as a prominent television personality through hosting, acting, and her active presence on social media. With more than 2.6 million Instagram followers, she has appeared in projects including Chaal, Quddusi Sahab Ki Bewa, Nagan, Dil Ke Rung Hazar, 21 MM Show, and Raasta. She is also recognised as a single mother raising three sons while balancing her career.
During the podcast, Mathira honestly revealed her age while dismissing society’s obsession with youth and appearance.
She said, “I will be honest, I am 34. I think I am a thick woman, and I can still turn heads. Youth is a part of your life; no one can live forever young. To be famous is written in your fate; not everyone becomes famous.”
Speaking about her journey in the entertainment industry, Mathira emphasised that she built her career on her own.
“Who launched me and gave me fame? No one, I am self-made. I am not worried about my future and youth. I’m a public person who loves private life, and I’m not worried about weight shaming,” she said.
The actress also addressed rumours surrounding cosmetic procedures and openly admitted to having undergone several treatments over the years. She explained that her nose surgery was not done for cosmetic reasons alone but was necessary after an accident.
“I did get a nose job, that’s for sure, because of my accident my bone got slanted or disfigured. I got it done in Turkey,” Mathira revealed.
She further acknowledged that she occasionally opts for non-surgical cosmetic treatments.
“Yes, I do get a bit of fillers or Botox. I did get a bit of liposuction 15 years ago,” she shared.
Mathira also challenged the stigma surrounding ageing, particularly the pressure placed on women to remain young. According to her, society often unfairly judges women based on their age while celebrating youth as the only standard of beauty.
Expressing her views, she said, “A woman doesn’t get old that easily. Have you seen Shakira, how well is she doing? We have stereotyped women, saying women ageing or ‘Umer dhalna’ is a very disgraceful thing.”
Her remarks resonated with many viewers, as she encouraged women to embrace every stage of life instead of feeling pressured by unrealistic beauty standards. Throughout the conversation, Mathira maintained that confidence, self-acceptance, and individuality matter far more than age, adding that she has never allowed criticism over her appearance or body to affect her outlook on life.

    Zendaya stunned by Zainab’s bold red-carpet look

    British content creator Zainab Jiwa is still processing a memorable encounter with Hollywood star Zendaya after the actress appeared stunned by her striking red-carpet outfit at the London premiere of The Odyssey. The 29-year-old creator attended the highly anticipated premiere wearing a dramatic custom-made gold gown featuring a hood. Her bold appearance quickly caught attention, but the reaction from Zendaya became the highlight of the evening. According to Zainab, Zendaya noticed her outfit while walking past and appeared visibly surprised. “She saw me there and her jaw just dropped, so did mine,” Zainab recalled, describing the moment as an unexpected exchange between the two. The actress reportedly praised the look before continuing on her way. For Zainab, the brief interaction was enough to leave a lasting impression. “I’m still in shock,” she said, adding that simply having Zendaya notice her outfit was something she never expected. A video capturing the moment subsequently gained huge attention online, reportedly collecting around 19 million views on TikTok and sending Zainab’s phone into a frenzy. Zainab has built a growing career by combining her passion for fashion and cinema. She regularly appears at major film premieres, where her outfits are designed around the themes and characters of the projects she is covering. Her journey began as a hobby, when she started sharing videos about films and fashion on social media. Her content eventually attracted the attention of major studios, with Disney among the first to invite her to interview actors for promotional events. Since then, she has interviewed several major Hollywood names, including Denzel Washington, Paul Mescal, Tom Hiddleston and Zendaya. Her distinctive red-carpet style has become a key part of her identity. As a hijab-wearing Muslim creator, Zainab incorporates modest fashion into her premiere looks while ensuring that each outfit remains connected to the film she is covering. She describes the process as finding ways to “halalify” fashionable looks, turning modesty into a creative element rather than a limitation. For different premieres, she has experimented with dramatic gowns, customised designs, henna and themed accessories. Her past appearances have included gold-inspired styling for Gladiator II, spiderweb henna for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and a creative red gown inspired by House of the Dragon. Despite receiving criticism from some social media users over her fashion choices, Zainab says the positive response keeps her motivated. With hundreds of thousands of followers across TikTok and Instagram, she has become a recognised digital creator on the modern film-premiere circuit. Yet behind the glamorous red carpets, she says life at home in north-west London remains much more ordinary, with limited storage space and family members often helping her prepare outfits at the last minute. For Zainab, the growing attention is ultimately about her love for cinema, fashion and connecting with audiences.

    Karachi police kill suspect in 6-year-old girl’s…

    Karachi police say the alleged suspect in the abduction and murder of a six-year-old girl was killed during a shootout in the city’s Keamari district after reportedly opening fire on officers attempting to arrest him. According to police, the case was registered at Jackson Police Station under charges related to kidnapping for ransom and murder following the disappearance and killing of the young girl. Investigators relied on CCTV footage collected from multiple locations, along with technical and forensic evidence, to identify and trace the suspect. Police said they received credible intelligence about the suspect’s location in the Mubarak Mosque area within the limits of Jackson Police Station. When officers arrived to carry out the arrest, the suspect allegedly opened fire on the police team. Officers returned fire, and the suspect sustained gunshot wounds. He later died from his injuries, according to the police statement. Following the incident, authorities secured the scene, collected evidence, and initiated legal and forensic procedures. Police said a separate case regarding the exchange of fire is also being registered, while investigations into the girl’s abduction and murder continue. The body of the six-year-old victim was recovered from bushes in Karachi’s Manora area. Police Surgeon Dr. Sumaiyya Syed said the child had been subjected to sexual assault and that multiple injuries were found on her body. Forensic samples have been collected, while the final cause of death will be determined after laboratory reports are completed. Investigators said they are continuing to examine CCTV footage, forensic findings, medico-legal reports, and other technical evidence to establish all circumstances surrounding the crime and determine whether anyone else may have been involved. The tragic case has sparked widespread concern over child safety and violent crimes against minors, with many calling for swift justice and stronger measures to protect children from such offences.

    Pakistan moves to revive Steel Mills after earlier liquidation decision

    The federal government has revived plans to restore Pakistan Steel Mills (PSM), signaling a major policy shift after previously deciding to wind up the loss-making state-owned enterprise. The development follows renewed interest from international parties in bringing the dormant steel producer back into operation, with Russian company Industrial Engineering LLC emerging as a key potential partner for the revival, modernisation and restructuring of the mill. Well-informed sources said the government has initiated consultations with the Russian firm to assess the technical, financial and operational requirements for restoring PSM’s production capacity. Two protocols have already been signed between Industrial Engineering LLC and Pakistan Steel Mills under the Ministry of Industries and Production. The first agreement was signed in Moscow on July 10, 2025, and provides a framework for cooperation on the revival, modernisation and restructuring of PSM. The second protocol was signed on November 26, 2025, during the 10th session of the Pakistan-Russia Intergovernmental Commission. The second agreement focuses on assessing the operational and capital expenditure required to restart manufacturing activities at the steel mill. Feasibility assessment under way According to sources, the authorities have also carried out an exercise to calculate production costs and evaluate the commercial viability of restarting PSM. The assessment is expected to help determine whether the mill can operate sustainably and compete in the domestic and international steel markets after years of inactivity. The findings will form the basis for recommendations to the government before a final decision is taken on the future structure and operations of the enterprise. Sources said the relevant authority would submit recommendations to the Cabinet Committee on State-Owned Enterprises (CCoSOEs), seeking an end to the liquidation process and approval to pursue the revival option with the participation of international investors. The move represents a reversal of the government’s earlier policy. Government had approved liquidation In May 2024, the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) had decided to scrap Pakistan Steel Mills after efforts to find a buyer failed to produce a viable offer. The Cabinet Committee on Rightsizing subsequently approved the liquidation of the existing mill in August 2024. However, the government has now shifted its focus towards rehabilitation, apparently encouraged by renewed international interest and the possibility of securing foreign technical and financial support. A formal summary regarding the proposed policy shift has been submitted to the Ministry of Industries and Production for consideration, sources said. A parliamentary secretary also indicated that the government’s policy direction had changed and that efforts were now being made to restore PSM to operational status. He said the timeline agreed upon with the Russian company would be followed, with the relevant departments expected to take further steps after completion of the ongoing assessments. Power minister signals renewed revival efforts Separately, Minister for Power Sardar Awais Leghari said recommendations for reviving Pakistan’s dormant steel giant would soon be presented to policymakers, reinforcing indications that the government is seriously reconsidering the future of PSM. Speaking at a webinar titled “Pakistan-Russia: Strengthening Trade, Education and Energy Collaboration,” jointly organised by the University of World Civilizations Moscow (UWCM) and the Institute of Regional Studies (IRS), Leghari highlighted the growing momentum in Pakistan-Russia relations. He said bilateral ties had strengthened over the past two decades on the basis of mutual trust, respect and a shared interest in regional stability. The minister’s remarks come as Pakistan explores greater Russian involvement in key economic and industrial sectors, including the possible rehabilitation of PSM. Financial burden remains a challenge Pakistan Steel Mills has remained largely dormant for years, creating a continuing financial burden for the government. Following the earlier decision to wind up the enterprise, the government has continued to bear the salaries and other expenses of its remaining employees. Meanwhile, some of the mill’s liabilities and operating costs have been met through proceeds generated from the sale of scrap. The proposed revival could therefore provide an opportunity to turn the idle industrial asset into a productive enterprise while reducing the recurring financial burden on the national exchequer. However, the government is expected to carefully evaluate the mill’s outstanding liabilities, infrastructure requirements, production costs, technology needs and long-term market prospects before committing substantial public resources. If the revival plan moves forward with foreign participation, the project could also open the door to new investment, technology transfer and employment opportunities in Pakistan’s steel and related industrial sectors.

    Former India captain Sourav Ganguly and wife receive death threats

    KOLKATA: Former India captain and ex-BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and his wife, Dona Ganguly, have reportedly received death threats, prompting police to launch an investigation into a series of threatening letters sent to the family. According to Indian media reports, a fresh threatening letter was opened on Monday at the office of the president of the Bengal Cricket Association. The letter was reportedly written entirely in English and contained threats against Ganguly and his family. The latest incident has raised concern because the family has allegedly been receiving similar letters for around six months. Initially, the messages were reportedly dismissed as letters from overzealous or unhappy fans. However, the increasingly aggressive language and repeated threats eventually prompted the family to approach police. A formal written complaint has been submitted to the local police station by Ganguly’s family. The state government’s security department has also reportedly been informed, with the family seeking appropriate security measures. The complaint stated that unknown individuals had previously sent letters containing offensive and objectionable remarks about the former India captain. At first, the messages were believed to be linked to personal resentment or someone unhappy with Ganguly. The situation took a more serious turn when two recent letters addressed to Sourav and Dona Ganguly reportedly contained threatening language targeting not only the couple but also people working with them. Police sources said their preliminary inquiry indicated that the threatening letters had been sent by courier to Ganguly’s residence. Authorities have assured Ganguly’s personal assistant that an investigation is underway and that necessary steps are being taken to ensure the safety of the former cricketer and his family. Ganguly, one of India’s most influential cricket figures, served as national captain before later becoming BCCI president. The latest threats have now placed his family under increased security attention as investigators work to identify those behind the letters.

    Brasilia reduces diplomatic presence in Buenos Aires following verbal attacks by Argentine leadership

    Brazil has formally downgraded its diplomatic representation in Argentina to the level of chargé d’affaires following renewed verbal insults directed by Argentine President Javier Milei toward Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that Brazilian Ambassador Julio Bitelli will not be returning to his post in Buenos Aires. The decision was triggered after Milei referred to the Brazilian head of state using derogatory terms, including calling him corrupt and an ex-convict, during a television interview with Argentine broadcaster LN+. Bitelli had initially been recalled late last month after Milei openly criticized Lula while appearing in São Paulo alongside opposition candidate Flavio Bolsonaro during the formal launch of his presidential campaign. Argentine Ambassador Daniel Raimondi was officially notified of the administrative downgrade in Brasília. The move marks a formal escalation in the deteriorating relations between South America’s two largest economies, whose leaders have not held a formal bilateral summit since Milei assumed office.
