Take a peek into the unfolding of Nai Rahain, the innovative and activist show that highlights tabooed subjects, celebrates our national achievements, and brings advocates, government leaders, and ordinary Pakistanis to the table to help resolve some of Pakistan’s most pressing social issues, especially with regards to Women.
nai rahain sure is a breath of fresh air…keep it up guys! can you please start up loading more information on the website so that I can share it with my friends around the world…keep up the good work..our nation needs programmes like your
Love the promo you guys made. I am absolutlely loving the work you guys are doing. Specially like the diversity of topics you guys touch upon in your show and then put up the special “Meher Twist” which makes it stand out from the rest of television!
Keep up your good work!!!!
Just wanted to add that I really admire the activism you inspire among viewers. Watching your show makes me want to participate more through civil society work. Great job, Meher! I can’t wait to see what else you are doing.
Best wishes,
Sarah
A rejoicing woe of new thoughts when tied with intellectual stimulation makes a package which not only enlighten the existing facts around us but also activate our creative thinking. You can very rightly name it as ‘Nai Rahain’.
This programme stands out from the crowd, due to the home work of the team on subjects as well as due to the dynamic personality of Meher Bokhari– who not only dominates the broadcast but also put the discussion on the fringe of new angles of thinking. She fills the ever existing space of a bold, out spoken, intellectual and courageous Female Anchor person in Pakistan.
I wish you a very good luck for your future ventures.
Bravo!
Words cannot express my utter delight and admiration in seeing what a wonderful, wonderful, young woman Pakistan has produced. Meher Bokhari: you truly take the cake for reaching out to the masses with breathtaking charisma and such admirable integrity. Keep up the EXCELLENT work. We needed someone like you in this field; an educated, outspoken, upright and awe-inspiring anchor/producer.
[...] See the original post here: Promo of ‘Nai Rahain’ [...]
Amna: Thankyou so much for the appreciation. We have over 200 episodes to date and to upload them all…well, it will take time to say the least! I am currently working on getting my favourite ones on, plus the ones I am doing daily since the construction of the website. Stay tuned and patient!
Jawad: Your appreciation had kicked in yet more energy!! Keep advising on the kind of topics you would like addressed, and will aspire to satisfy.
Sarah: Even one person feeling the vibe, the patriotism - achieves the motive. I believe activism is contagious, and we all need to do our part! Thanks once again!
Haroon: Wow! Your comment just made my year to say the least!! You are indeed kind, its this appreciation and encouragement which make NR team and myself want to try even harder! Honestly, thank you very much! Keep in touch.
Nina: I cant imagine what I’ve done to deserve such love and respect, am truly humbled. Do please write in more often with what you’d like to hear and see. The Balochistan special episode on women and children today was probably the closest to my heart (in reponse to your personal email). I will get it repeated for you on Saturday inshAllah.
Something Pleasant about AASHA (Alliance against Sexual Harrasment at Workplace):
I am happy to share a good news with SAMAA Nai Rahian Team, as you have shown your heart for the issue and did more than one shows on it. The ggod news is that the government has finally made a good move. They have finally approve the bill called “Protection from Harrasment at workplace”. This is a big news and the bill once approved by both the houses is going to improve the lives of working women significantly. It is also going to creat the opportunity for more and more women to come out and work outside home to help their families as well as the society, as the work environment would be safe and respectable. I hope you people would like some progrm on it. Do let me know if i can be of assistance. Best regards
Well having spoken to Meher in person (saturday evening) i can say that she is completely herself on TV, which is refreshing to say the least. Also, I have a feeling that I know why people tend to think she is older than her actual age… its because of that episode she did on parenting and education of children a while ago. Solid advice but not without externalities
Look forward to seeing you again and do get in touch if you want an insight into a High Court lawyer’s daily endeavours (with all the wrong pronunciations and what not lol)
This is a very promising effort. I wish the team of ‘Nai Rahain’ all the success they need and deserve. One suggestion: Subtitle. When Meher switches into English have Urdu subtitles and when she is talking in Urdu have English subtitles. This is a bilingual nation and the media should help sustain that for a number of beneficial reasons. Shine on!
hats off!!!
NR has made its mark, amazingly you guys have put togather all the content of the program i must say very informative and heart touching which opens your mind and specially the way you touched such sensitive issues and leaving viewers with hope not in the state of depression which most of our tv shows do, the title Nai Rahain wondefully match with the concept of the show and Meher the way you take the show no words for it, one can easily feel that its all coming from inside and how deeply you are into it and i have hardly seen any anchor on tv who is so commited and working so hard and devotedly i have a little suggestion when you talk about social problems and with people or bodies who are working for the welfare if somebody wants to help them how can viewers approach them, through you???

You’re doing a commendable job bringing to light women’ issues in our country; it’s about time somebody does. The website looks great, start linking to human rights and women’s rights blogs around the world to increase awareness and traffic to your site. Great job and good luck for the future.
heyyyy i love this show and im very proud of what you’re set out to do Meher! and im shocked at how good your urdu is, mashallah. Would you like to mobilize us youth?
Meher, it wont be an exaggeration if I say that you are the best thing that has ever happened to Pakistani television.
Keep up the good work girl, we are all sooo proud of you.
love and besssst of wishes.
Dear Meher
You doing a very good job ! keep it up ! you are like a family member to us
who keeps up all informed thanks to you !

Dear Meher.
I love to see a lady like us. You feel Pakistan like the ordinary people of this country. You speak very well. I rate you amongst the best three comapres of Pakistan. I dont think you are just a compare, but are the real think tanks of Pakistan. watched you interviewing Governor of Balochistan and Punjab. I was wondering about your program. Got you today in Nai Rahain “Talash”. Did called several times but your number was always engaged. I was going to present you Iqbal’s “Iqbal teray des ka kia hal sunaoon”. Your guest were not able to respond your feelings. I was looking at your eyes which were wet that time. Keep awaking us. Prays for u.
AoA…
Dear Mam,
hopeu will b fine…..
U R doing very well..
kindly give ne email & cell # of “Khawar Riaz”.

dear meher,
assalamoalaikum,
i am a regular viewer of your show. i must confess here that the topics you chose in the recent past were impeccable. you deserve an applaud for discussing them in their true essence and perspective. i would like to recommend a topic here. “interaction of male and female in islam in general and our society in particular with emphasis on the extents and prohibitions made by both religion and society”. sister, this is a common problem being faced by a normal person whether male or female and we see lot many people suffering from the unnecessary interaction of of males and females. sometimes a male is caught involved in an extra marital affair and sometimes a woman. and the sole reason for all this pain and agony for the sufferer is the unnecessary interaction between males and females. sister, i tell you this is the most painful time for a man or a woman, and irony of the fact is that he or she cannot share this agony with anybody due to various obvious reasons. please discuss in detail with your scholars, can there exist a relation between a man and a woman, ofcourse other than blood relations. because i dont think so it can. in my opinion there is no relation like frienship, brother sister(except for very few exceptions that cannot be counted for to make this legitimate)and girlfriend boyfriend, because normally they all end up disturbing one way or the other someone’s life. and i have seen so many people’s life being ruined because of this. and with lots of apologies to you for being a lady, i have seen most of the times, ladies messing up the whole issue to the extent which brought disgrace and humiliation which resulted in honour killings and suicides by men. the agony of the fact is that due to the peculiar nature of the women once they are into it they dont listen to anybody. dont feel dejected by my comment dear sister, because you ladies are the symbol of our honour and we honour you more than our lives. and please pleasse for God’s sake dont makee it an issue of women right or a debate of gender discrimination. its a very serious issue please put us all wise on this.i would be grateful if you throw light on the issue of love, because what i think is that, love is possesive in nature not by design, but by default. so no husband or wife who love each other would like to share there love with anybody else. and this all fuss which is ceated is because of the unnecessary gender interaction. can we stop it or even curtail it to an extent that it does not become a source of pain for people with whom we have made promises of unerred relation and true love.
with regards and appreciations,
muhammad aamir
Dear Meher Jee
When I see your programs it remind me the sayings of John F. Kennedy that “Let us think of education as the means of developing our greatest abilities, because in each of us there is a private hope and dream which, fulfilled, can be translated into benefit for everyone and greater strength for our nation.” You are really doing a wonderful & selfless job for the nation dear. May Allah gives you more beauty, audacity & time to carry on you job just like this.

dear meher main apna ek masala app se share karna chahta hoon. mere gharelo zindagi buhat disturb hai umeed hai k app koi tareqa batain gi muje mail karna nahen aata. kh
mumtaz from jhelum
This comments are about little old program “Interview with Governor Baluchistan”.
I do find a general link where some one can send comments
Dear Ms. Bokhari
I am watching your many interviews where you perform your task very well. In last recent interview push me to send you an email where you have taken interview from Governor Balochistan.
I have noticed that in your talk you were using Islamic references in Ramadan, but other than Ramadan time you are not giving any reference about our beloved religion.
Being a Muslim, when Governor said that there are Customs of Balochies regarding killing of womens and felt very badly because what had stopped such sins in early stages of Islam, he is saying customs. These people are just muslims but not Momen who are saying customs. In your questions you were keep asking many questions about women in the context of western styles, why not you can give references from Quran/ Hadith. Please when you talk try to give references from Quran/Hadith as well. Every normal muslim knows that Islam had stopped a big sin where old people were burring womens/ girls. Now many balochies are saying Customs, then what is difference between old concept and what is new one termed as customs. I know your job is difficult but you can try to give references, this may change mind of such high rank kings/ prince.
I spent 10 years of my life in western and saw life very closely, in some cases they are giving benefits to women but actual is reverse. As per survey, more women are accepting Islam than women, why?
Anyway, thanks for readying my email being a professional and responsible person I expect from you a reply of this email
best regards, Jazak Allah Khair for you

Dear Miss Meher ,
Hope you are fine , I watch your two program first During eid holiday and Secondly on last friday in which you are going to debate the cousins marriages .
Of coarse that one is good issue which you raise but i would like to say do you think this issue is important than
others like :
Education in Private and Government Sector .
Medical Treatement in Government Hospital .
etc .
Currently i Just want to say that kindly raise the issue of education strongly through your media , But dont think
with one program and debate you done your duty .
Basically in my opinion every channel have a duty to go each village and cities and give live coverage what going
on and why our budjet not properly use , etc .
As far As Private sector school - Please raise this issue
why they increase their fees about Rs.1000 ~ 1200 when oil prices were touch the level of US$150 And now today
US$36 and no one can ready to reduce the fees .
Above mentioned issue is the one which i mentioned but their a lot of issues on which channels should doing
a lot of work and making campaign so that government will
seriously implement above issues in right direction .
Rather than we only doing politics like other channels are doing .
I found you to be very energetic, exuberant, dazzling and full of passion. May Allah help you to do something great in your life especially for your country Pakistan.
For the last couple of months,
I’ve had these weird feelings for you.
Feelings that I can’t explain,
and too scared to tell you.
I’m scared of your reaction,
scared to admit I feel for you.
I wanted to take things slow with you,
but my heart had different plans.
I can’t deny how I feel about you anymore,
so i probably should tell you how i feel.
I love you Meher.
Asalam alaikum

AOA Everyone!
I can not express how much I adore each and everyone of you - for your love, appreciation, healthy criticism, and guidance. Nai Rahain is going to continue in 2009 as well, after having completed a successful and thriving 2008 - and for that I am grateful to you all.
There is one BREAKING NEWS however, Nai Rahain is no longer a morning show but in fact an evening prime time 7-8pm program which will remain steadfast on its mandate of raising social and women’s issues in Pakistan - and guess what? I NEED YOU ALL MORE THAN EVER NOW!
Please give me your feedback/suggestions/opinions regarding issues you’d like addressed, about the new timing, etc.
Lets get working!
Meher Bokhari
Asalam Alaikum
I want you to do the programme on cricket
What a news Meher!!!
Congratulations to you. You definitely deserve to be there. The positive thing abt these timings is that it will ensure maximum youth participation. Otherwise,we used to be busy in our universities and offices and missed most of your shows.
My prayers and best wishes to you.:)

The qualitative content of your program shows yours efforts towards this program. You are doing a marvelous job.

Please lets us know the repeat time of your show. Also i want to ask you that why your web dose not contain a tab of Urdu language under the header of translation? If it is not that much important then why Hindi is placed there??

Meher Jee
Films kay mutaliq show jo apnay Syed Noor & ek or sb kay sath kia tha kuch din pehlay was fantastic, Syed Noor was acting a bit childish in that prog.
Meri ek suggestion hay Why our cinema holders display Indian films with the help of projectors using CDs to reduce the cost & retaliation to there acts against our media.
Your dressing in every prog is perfect mashallah.
God Bless You
Thanks

I m sorry but this is true that you try n hit very serious issues and people want to hear you but the distraction is that you try to be very glamourous which is not the requirement of this show… PPPLLLLLZZZZ, ur not a model girl at the moment that you wear so much makeup and showy wardrobe… other thing is that why do you try to be so loud n dominate your guests and callers…. Plz be Natural & keep low, coz you can talk on Great issues with a low tone….
being working in tv production, i believe she is performing a wonderful job if she seems to be dull on screen it will giving very depressive look to the show as the topics are so touchy and sensitive… he vibrant colors give postive vibes to viewers… and secondly anchor should have some emotions towards the topic otherwise it wont be able to grab the attention of the viewers and thirdly if she wont be vocal about the content of the show then there is no point in doing it… and it is very natural which is coming out of it… unlike other anchors she is not try to pose some thing …
good site!

I do not invite US Ambassador simply because he does not come alone but with security officers who, as per my protocol, can neither sign my Invitees’ Book nor be snapped with Ambassadors. I being a Pakistani do not invite Indian diplomats for very obvious reasons. I may pronounce that no expatriate in Kuwait including citizens of 5 Super Power can claim such entity. Very few can claim such entity worldwide (you name my competitor) what to talk of Pakistan.
*************************
Marriage is one of the most important days in everybody’s life- male or female and therefore, from time immemorial, knowing or unknowingly at least some, if not all brides and bridegrooms, had tried their best to celebrate the day in the most fascinating manner. Of course, one way or the other, some of them did succeed in their venture to get their marriage reckoned and recognized by others.
I’m also a human, exactly like you, he or she for that matter and therefore, quite but naturally, I had felt some extra heat when ultimately at the age of 42, I decided to marry in 1985. I was Administration Manager, Epic Instruments. Inc (USA Co), Kuwait when I was marrying a completely unknown compatriot named Miss Suhail Fatima in Islamabad, Pakistan. She was a Teacher, Islamabad Model College & School for Girls.
Truly speaking I had long thought to solemnize my marriage not only a bit differently but very much exclusively too and, touch wood, I did succeed in my mission. I wished to marry on 30.6 (30th June) and hence booked Room 306, Holiday Inn, Islamabad (the then only 5 star in the city) so that the wedding date equates with the hotel room number. One can imagine how much joyous I had been to synchronize the date and the room. However, a fortnight before my departure to Pakistan, EPIC Chairman Mr. Edward K Mills II called me and asked that I must come back two days earlier than the original plan and I had to agree to the instructions of my employer. I phoned Holiday Inn, Islamabad explaining that now I may marry on 28th or 29th and resultantly Room 286 or 296, whatever applicable, may kindly be booked accordingly but, very much regretfully, none of the two rooms could be booked. I explained the newly developed dilemma to Mr. EKM and requested that, under the changed situation, I be allowed to return one day before and not two days and he instantly agreed to my request.
The greatest compromise of my life is that now I had no option but to stay in Room 306 and marry on 29th June afternoon which, after the lapse of some hours, still had some relationship between the room and the date but 28th June and Room 306 were miles apart in any case. I wedded Miss Suhail on 29th June, 1985 in Islamabad and we both lived in Room 306, Holiday Inn. On the wedding day, I very solemnly promised with Shireen that each year on the wedding date, we will stay, jointly or individually, in Room 306, Holiday Inn wherever we are. After 6 days stay at Holiday Inn, Islamabad we flew to Lahore where my mother was staying and we both stayed in Rom 412, Hilton Hotel, Lahore l till I flew back to Kuwait,
Let me quip that in 1991, I was Business and Manpower Advisor, Pakistan Embassy, Kuwait but ever since Iraqi forces had lit fires in oil wells, I didn’t feel prudent to call my wife and daughter Areej (then two and half year old) to join me in the smoke polluted environment. Quite naturally, on our wedding date (29th Jun) I wished to be with my family in Islamabad and as a diplomat I had flown on discounted air ticket but my official diplomatic obligations did not permit me to go even for two days. I had no option but to stay here all alone by myself in Room 306, Holiday Inn, Kuwait, whereas, my wife and our daughter stayed in Islamabad in Room 306, Holiday Inn, not only to commemorate our wedding anniversary but also to maintain our annual tradition.
I simply can not help telling you that I have nick named her as Shireen (meaning sweet) and since then she is mostly known as Shireen though her official name is still Suhail. It is very much customary that the wedding document is signed by the couple, witnesses and the official clergy man (maulvi) and this, as such, necessitated that I must buy pens for the signatories. Here again I have slightly drifted away in sense that I bought two new pens to be used by the official and the witnesses. I had bought a Cross 18 karate gold pen and got our names (Iqbal & Shireen) engraved on it and had decided that not even a single letter, what to talk of a word, will be written with this pen by me and or Shireen except to sign the wedding document, and since then the matrimonial pen is in a bank locker in Islamabad.
We were in Kuwait in 1986 when we had our 1st Wedding Anniversary and I deputed Shireen to go to all the hotels and book the banquet hall she likes the best. She opted for Kuwait Marriot Hotel (ship converted into hotel) to host Wedding Anniversary at its Al-Mirage Hall. I must pen that Marriot GM was extra nice person who got me a nicely furnished and decorated complimentary room for us to stay on the day. I thanked the gentleman from core of my heart, but I apologized for the simple reason that my matrimonial promise binds me and Shireen that on our wedding anniversary (29th June) we must stay only in room 306, Holiday Inn, so how can we stay in Marriot Hotel room. As per the tradition, we stayed in Room 306, Holiday Inn and drove from there to Marriot to host the reception and after the function we came back to Holiday Inn to sleep in our matrimonial room on the day.
In 1993, my younger sister in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia wished that we should visit her and stay at her expense in Holiday Inn, Riyadh on our wedding anniversary and, honestly speaking, I liked the idea. I faxed Holiday Inn, Riyadh to book us in Room 306 for 29th June but, as the bad luck had it, the hotel did not have room 306 and instead suggested that we live in some other room which will be very cozy, comfortable and luxurious but how could I break my life long matrimonial promise
How pleased I am to mention that on our 20th Wedding Anniversary (29 Jun 05), Mr. Hani Kafafi, GM, Crowne Plaza, Kuwait, at his own, had very kindly arranged an exclusive interview with me and Shireen on the day. CP’s Guest Relations Manager along with photographer came to our room and asked different questions to complete the interview. CP had sent the interview text coupled with the photo taken in our room to all the local dailies of Kuwait which very prominently flashed the same in their newspapers.
Awfully traumatized and shocked I was, but for none of my fault. On 9th April, 2008 I had sent email to Mr. Hani Kafafi, GM, Crowne Plaza, Kuwait requesting him to kindly reserve hotel Room 306 for me for 29th June to commemorate my 23rd Wedding Anniversary. Same day Ms. Rodela Bantayan, Resevations Manager, Crowne Plaza sent me the good news confirming that the room has been booked. But very much unluckily on 8th May, the same lady from CP sent me email saying that due to refurbishment of the room, regretfully the room will not be available to me. She had however sent my request to its sister organization Holiday Inn, Salmiya to book its Room 306 for me for the day. On 13th May, Ms. Nette, Reservations Manager, Holiday Inn emailed me happily confirming that its Room 306 has been booked for me for 29th June but, honestly speaking, I am not at all happy to live elsewhere than Crowne Plaza.
Don’t you realize that on 29th June, 2010, God willing, I will be staying in the same room, same hotel for 25th consecutive year (perhaps Guinness Book of Records)? In sheer desperation, on 13th May, I hurriedly met Mr. Anwar Jawad Bukhamseen, local partner and sponsor of CP at one of his National Assembly election tents and explained that the room may kindly be rebooked for me and he very kindly called Mr. Atif, Director Human Resources of CP to look me after. Mr. Atif was too nice and sympathetic to me and realized as to how touchy I am on the issue. He promised to use his official influence and try to get me back the room, provided, I give in writing that I am accepting the room even if there is some noise or disturbance around and or the room is short on some facilities & comforts. I have sent him the undertaking stating that I, at my own free will, accepting the room to live in on the day.
I am too very pleased to pen that eventually I succeeded in my efforts and on Thursday 5th instant CP has confirmed the availability of the room and hence on Sunday 29th June, 2008, I and Shireen stayed in Room 306, Crowne Plaza (www.kuwait.crowneplaza.com / Tel (00965) 24442000 + 24732100 Fax 24732020 + 24720449) to commemorate our 23rd Wedding Anniversary.

MEHER I AM EXTREMELY WAITING FOR UR SHOW ABOUT ENGINEERS AND ENGINEERING STUDENTS……KINDLY INVITE PROFESSORS OF UNIVERSITY OF ENGINEERING AND TECNOLOGY IN UR SHOW. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
This is in regard to the February 17, 2009 show. Topic was “Should the domestic violence issue resolved within the boundry or brought outside?” Funny thing is that in the whole show there was no sign of “DOMESTIC VIOLENCE”. Emphesis was only on “WOMEN”. What I’m trying to say is that the show was totally out of direction. Instead of actually discussing the issue it sounded like a “WOMEN IMPOWERMENT” session.
Second thing I wanna add is that I got lucky & my call got through & I asked a question giving reference of Holy Quran. Instead of getting a satisfactory answer to my question, I was told by the host that I’m in agreement with 1 of the participants of the show. This is totally wrong & unacceptable. I’m simply saying what I read in the book of God. It bothers me least if its in agreement or disagreement with anyone.
In my opinion, now adays we are simply going crazy in following the “WESTERN CULTURE”. We have totally given up on all the teachings of our religion. Our only survival is following the teachings of Islam. That is the only way we can get rid of the socail evils not only like “DOMESTIC VIOLENCE”, but all others.
Closing statement, utmost efforts should be done to resolve any issues including “DOMESTIC VIOLENCE” within the boudary. If there’s no resolution in sight, all measures should be taken to counter it.
GOD BLESS US ALL…
Everyone, Sorry for the late response, I am swamped in work these days but I guess I should be grateful for that!
Dear Sana, Big hugs! Thank you for your support and love, honestly means a lot! Do please let me know what kind of issues and topics you would like addressed in the new time slot –especially the youth.
————————–
Dear Saleem from Muscat,
Why be so pessimistic?
————————–
Dear Muhammad Abdullah,
I will be honest, I do put in a lot of hard work and effort in doing my research and content work for the show. Nai Rahain goes live every evening from 7-8PM and then there are two repeat time slots, one is 3-4AM, and the other more decent time is 12NOON. I do hpe you’re watching regularly! As for the Urdu language option on this website, I have been trying but cant seem to get it ?
—————————
Dear Ali,
You’re absolutely right, higher standards must always be set in our aspiration for perfection! Please give me ideas and suggestions on how you would like Nai Rahain to be improved in terms of execution and methodology – I am very keen on knowing! Look forward to hearing back from you
—————————
Dear Kehkeshan Aamir,
I’m glad you enjoyed the show, although to be honest I am not sure I know which episode you are speaking of. All human beings are multifaceted, there are no hard black and whites but in fact a lot of greys…Similarly there are good and bad women, but as you pointed out sometimes we take undue advantage of being women! I did a show recently on Women Criminals, another side of women we have never spoken of or addressed on media – it was very interesting!
——————————–
Dear Dr. Humayon,
Ecstatic that you enjoyed the show with Syed Noor on Indian Film infiltrating our country. He did get very excited and impassioned. I hope you are now following the new timing of Nai Rahain in Saudi Arabia! Also, Mr. Javed Hashmi was a guest in my new show Mulaqatein, http://mulaqatain.blogspot.com/
——————————-
Dear Shahid Turab,
YOU JUST MADE MY DAY! Thank you so very much for your words, honestly people don’t realize what a stressful and unrewarding job this can be at times, the only thing we look forward to is feedback: positive and negative! And whereas negative feedback is great in terms of improving and correcting oneself, positive feedback goes on to encourage, excite, motivate and help us get focused! Everytime I have a bad day, the only thing which brightens it up is knowing that someone, somewhere enjoyed/appreciated what I did and if I’m really lucky, then knowing that I made a difference in some respect! Once again, God bless you!
——————————-
Dear Adnan,
Thank you for watching and guess what? I’m now hoping that you’ve become a regular viewer! Keep writing in with observations and comments – I look forward to them.
—————————–
Dear Amjad,
Thank you for appreciating our topic selection! I am generally a loud person naturally and will definitely try and keep low, although trust me it will be hard as I get very involved and passionate about the issues I address. As for dressing up, it might not go with the mandate of the show but then again grooming and dressing up is what women do naturally! I’m sorry if it is a distraction. Please keep writing in, I look forward to hearing from you!
——————
Dear Diya,
Thank you for the defense, I was laughing reading what you have written and honestly really appreciate it; more than anything else, I’m enjoying the freedom of opinion here!
—————-
Dear Iqbal Hadi Zaidi,
Whoa! Long email, I understand that you have requested the contact information of some people but unfortunately I am not allowed to give that out, company policy.
—————
Dear Omar,
Stay tuned, I will get to it inshAllah!
Dear Adnan,
I am sorry for misunderstanding your call during the live program, I will be making a post for this show in the next couple of days and I promise you I will write a response to your comment in detail over there. In the mean time please keep watching the show and accept my apology.
AOA….u r doing a fabulous job meher…keep up the gud work…i would like u to also notice the academy systems in lahore…i dont know about any other city but lahore is suffering from this well u can say it a curse….matric and especially fsc cant be done without going to an academy….let us talk about colleges…there are so well known colleges like gcu, fc colloge, crescent model higher secondary school, punjab colleg etc etc…one spends the whole day in a college and then goes to academies in the evening studying the same course and same things but in a totally differnet manner…teachers in collegs just sab kuch sar say utaratay hain but in acdemies teachers teach us fantastically…i oftenly say to my relatives that if i would not have gone to college but the only academy then i probably would have got double the marks…hehe…i have also seen such teachers who just chill in colleges but teaches fantastically in their academies just because students get attracted to their academies…literally mehaer that things happen and this is done in such a vast level that it cant be stopped like the corruption in politics which all want to be stopped but it cant…just like that….obviously a student does not go willingly to academies…when he is not satisfied with the study of college then he or she has to go to academy studying the same thing and spending double the time for the same thing….so plz RAISE THIS TOPIC IN UR SHOW AND INVITE TEACHERS FROM COLLEGES AND FROM ACADEMIES IN LAHORE….
Assalam-o-Alaikum

Hi Meher
Wan to say something about the Swat flogging.It was indeed a tragic day of 29 years of my life when i came to know about this incident.If that’s their Islam, sorry to say, i m declaring myself as a non muslim from today.The man who witnessed as well as filmed the Taliban flogging has spoken out.Shaukat said the allegation against and the treatment meted out to the girl was actually a punishment against her for refusing a marriage proposal.The man who proposed to marry her joined the ranks of the Taliban after the rejection and this was how he took his revenge from the 17-year-old girl.Now u tell me how to repond to this.

Dr. Humayon Riyadh Saudia Arabia
dear meher
salam ke baad arz hai keh aaj 28 april ko apka live programme dekha acha laga, aap khubsoorat hone ke sath sath zaheen bhi hein Allah aapko aor samaa tv ko salamat rake amin.
guzarish hai keh aap aise loguon ko bulain jen ko kuch reality patha ho abhi deko na aap ne aaj jen mehmanoun ko bulaia tha unko tu kuch patha hi nahien
un mein se aik ne kaha keh islam mein yeh kahein nahein lekha hai ke aap ki apki wife ghar ke andar rahe aor kisi na mahram ke sath nahein ja sakti.
request hai keh reference ke leye Al ahzab AOr Al nisaa ki study karein aor samajh lein.
umeed hai keh aap aor woh sab logg jo be pardagi par khush hoti hein aor fakhar karti hein es ke baad parda karni lagegein.
ek baat aor keh jitni izat islam ne aorat ko di hai kisi mazhab ne nahein di, aorat ko pakdaman aor zemadar islam ne banaya laken parda mein reh kar jen societies ki baat aap logg karti hein os ne aorat ko kia dia , en societies ne tu aorat ko nanga aor beizzat kar ne mein koi kasar na rehne di , islam ne aorat ko father aor husband donu ke properties mein hissa dia bataein konsi mazhab hai ya konsi society hai ya konsi community hai jo yeh donu haqq aorat ko deti hein islam rezaq kamane se manaa nahein kartha magar kuch osool aor qanoon ke andar.
sorry meher its a very long topic and i know that you are very qualified so you should study it by yourself and please again please tell them who like you,ouyr guests and who truly love islam.
thanks a lot
Please try to do balanced shows without tilting too much on the left
Hi Meher,
You are doing tremendous job. I watch your shows & the issues which you highlighted are the basic issues of our society nowdays. The way you have exposed the barbaricism of taliban in swat by showing that flogging video it’s highly appreciated. I’ve’nt seen any anchor person speaking so loud against the injustice the way you do.
KEEP GOING ON …….. WE WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU & I PRAY ” MAY GOD GIVE YOU MORE STRENGHT TO SPEAK/STAND AGAINST INJUSTICE … AMEEN ”
Regards
ARCHANGEL
assalam-o-alaikum Meher y u have stopped to upload new shows and to reply comments?
Hi Mehar,
AoA
AoA to all other readers too.
Mehar if i go for all what i have in my heart to say, will take message so lenghty but to share with the vision or mixed feeling for you to appriciate your work and the HIGHER side to feed you back with a (-ve) side of your time shares..
You know its been months i did not respond to the forum, WHY ? i got every comment passed on this forum in my Email and i just read it and i got to know there is 1+ in your fans, Supporters and welwisher, thats good but thats not what I expect here, The reasons came into my mind are.
1. You are very lazy replying to your Sincere ones Here.
2. Maybe the Busy persons like me (ALHAMDULLILLAH) maynot find time regularly to watch your programes daily so they if sometime get to watch your any prog. visit this site, then they watch the PROMO of your prog. and lead very excitedly to post a comment on your assingments reflecting in this Promo.
But person like me when he do not find any contribution from the Celebraty of this particular forum and there is NO CHANGE in promo, there is No new Comments, So i would consider it YOUR FAULT, Everybody has a right to differ in my opionion.
Anyways,
Have a very very good days ahead you all.
Thank you so very much for reading all.
ALLAH K HAWALAY.
PAKISTAN ZINDABAD

Asalam Alaikum
I want the reply of my question pls be honest why your channel has closed Sports day what was the porblem i wrote several email to your channels but they are not replying me will you reply me pls
Dear Meher
The new timings do not costume in Saudi Arabia, as we are 3 hrs behind PS time & this is time for the family specially the kids. Beside there is a conflict with some programs on other TV channels. Any way best of luck dear. I will try to work it out asap.
Dr. Humayon
please contact me ! i have very important thing to say!!
you have my email!
Salam Alycum
Would it be better if you put the responses in reverse direction that is 65 - 1 so recent responses will come up.
Salam Dr. Humayon, I am off-air for a month, will resolve timing issue upon return inshAllah, remember me in your duas.
Mr. Turab, you have no idea how insane it is at work, being a senior producer and anchor for 2 shows leaves me no time to even breathe, but I apologize for my response time, I will work on it, I promise you.
Dear Tabish, we all have to be stronger than ever before and work together to improve the situation in Pakistan, declaring yourself non muslim is no solution… how about working on giving a true and deserved reputation to the muslims - in our own capacities?
Bilal, you can write to me here, I always check.
Dear Saleem, I honestly dont know why Sports Day was closed. Else I would have told you.. I belive Samaa is working on a new sports program for you all.
Maqsood, dont we all wish all the Maulanas were reading what we have to say here?!
Dear Imran Khan, please keep writing in with ideas and suggestions, upon my return Nai Rahain will be dedicated to current affairs inshAllah.
Pak, being an anchor I try to make sure I voice opinions and concerns of the left and right, please dont be mistaken, I am not in a position to take sides. You, the enlightened and powerful audience are in a position to make your decisions based on a balanced debate. Keep writing in and I will try to improve where you feel there is a need to. Thank you
Dear Ahmad, I have quoted Surah Nisa several times in my shows to enlighten people just how much respect Islam gives to a woman, undoubtedly way beyond what we have been able to achieve.
Hi Mehar,
I am very upset to see your coments about those who send you coments and you not mentioned my name, why you cant read my coments or you rejected my coments about you? after today i’ll not see your program any more…… good bye GOD Bless You….
Salam Anees,
I missed you by accident, it was not intentional at all. I do apologize but please do not take it personally. I just read your comment above- thank you so much Anees. You know it is interesting that when I was taking this time off my management was thinking of putting up another anchor on my show just to ensure that the show remains on-air… but then suddenly all the sponsors pulled away saying they would only sponsor if Meher was anchoring Nai Rahain - your thoughtful comment reminded me of this little incident and I am truly humbled and thankful to Allah for thinking me fit for such love and respect. I hope I can continue to grow with my viewers and that our experience can mutually enahance our lives and ensure a better more stable Pakistan inshAllah.
While I am gone, my show Mulaqatein - Saturdays 8-9pm and Tuesdays 4-5pm will continue… there are some interesting personalities I have interviewd for Mulaqatein. Do give me your feedback if you get a chance to see the shows!
Once again, I am sorry if I upset you, it was not intentional.

Meher

Mehar,
Everyone.
AoA.
Thank You So Very Much Mehar for responding back to everyone, I beleive everyone get an energetic breath when they get response back from their all time fav personality and you are the one makin it sustain… I read your comments the first day as i got in email, thought i should respond back and apologies if i really hurt you by some critical analysis but then i thought you might be checking it after a considerable break so i will write to you later, then i got surprised and felt very happy when i saw your comments again very shortly to appologies some bro. who was not happy and he was on right that he got ignored but THANKU for your kind nature you admited and cleared the things… I still didnt comment, but today i can not live without commenting on a very fresh comment of MASCOBZ , Who wanted to tell you , how you can make money too while mainting your Blog..
I think his Idea is very cool to be implimetated as i know the way too, but i would request through you to MASCOBZ to tell you the way HERE on this forum.. WHY??? because it seems he is very wellwisher to you but i believe we should tell these kind of way of earning money to every one without making difference most of us are Alhamdullillah PAKISTANIES.. and we owe and its our duty to help each other to be an even better NATION. So If he continue telling here, many of us can also be beneficial and YES.. WE CAN HELP OUR NATIONHOOD SPECIALLy (Swat) by this way too.. Hope you all get my point..
Thanks for Reading..
Keep on it…

??????
Thank’s to everyone!!…I always thought MEHER would delete my comment after reading it!
I AM REALLY UPSET THAT WHY MEHER DIDN’T CONTACTED ME!!
i decided to create a video tutorial!!!..EXPLAINING EVERYTHING!…:) :)BUT IF MEHER IS NOT INTERESTED…I CAN’T HELP ANYONE!!
…:(
Sorry!
The only good thing about the PTV is, no matter what ever are the current affairs of state, it never forget to run an update of INDIA IN KASHMIR after every news, every day for the last couple of decades.
New generation should never forget THE SACRIFICES made to achieve this country. Y don’t these private PATRIOTIC TV channels can put a brief segment about the current situation in Kashmir after every news, Just for the sake to keep the issue alive at least in the hearts and minds of up growing young Pakistanis…..! Otherwise after couple of decades, we will never remember that Kashmir WAS part of Pakistan. I strongly hope, YOU with the SAMAA TV can make another trend initiation in private TV channels of Pakistan.
N.B: I am very well aware, it is inappropriate to post something irrelevant to the ongoing Topic, but for the last couple of weeks I have been trying to Type in my suggestions in the guest book sections of your website. It took me more than a week to find out that we have to write in there with INVISIBLE INK and recently it was revealed that we cannot post any comments until contents of INVISIBLE PICTURE is VISIBLE.(Which never appears) so no posting is possible there.
Please fix that error on the guest book section so people like me don’t post in some where inappropriate.
Regard.
DR. Yasir Khan
SYNDEY.
Salam Mscobx and Shahid,
I sure am interested!! however why dont you swap email addresses and share details there, not to say that others should not find out, but to use this space in an efficient way. However, this is only my suggestion. Feel free to advice.
Salam Yasir,
I will look into this glitch, thanks for pointing it out! Also, I have covered Kashmir issue, also visited Kashmir several times… but I understand what you are trying to highlight.. it is in fact an issue which is very near and dear to all of us and undoubtedly much deliberation is due.
Thanks!
Meher
