Emotional notes, vision boards and humour; here's how celebs welcomed 2025

As Pakistan, like rest of the world, steps into 2025 with renewed energy and hopes of change and prosperity, celebrities too have shared heartfelt messages with the commitment to embrace the new year with positive vibes.

Actress Mahira Khan reflected on the highs and lows of 2024 with an emotional note on Instagram.

“When you came, it felt like you would never end.. every moment felt like forever.. and now when you’re ending it feels like time just flew. That’s the thing about happiness and sadness, highs and lows.. it all passes. Nothing stays the same forever. Little moments of joy though.. they remain the same. And those are to be made the most out of. I learnt so much this year.. felt so much this year. More than anything I learnt so much about myself and by the end of the year felt so much like myself [sic],” she wrote.

The Humsafar actress expressed gratitude for her personal growth over the past year and ended with an optimistic outlook for the future.

“When I look back, I will remember this you as the year of faith, looking ahead always… but do put in a good word for me with 2025,” she concluded.

Veteran actor Adnan Siddqui added a touch of humor to his New Year’s wish by sharing a video message.

“Ah, 2025! A brand-new year, already judging us for the promises we probably won’t keep. But that’s the charm of life — it’s messy, unpredictable, and still worth every second. Here’s to another year of winging it with style. Happy New Year!” he said.

Actress Sarah Khan shared a picture of herself in a black dress with the caption: “Pouring my heart and soul into this, with my vision board behind me. This is the moment when I take the inspiration and goals visually represented in front of me and bring them to life. 2025, lets do this! 💥💕 PS. The song represents my feelings right now [sic].”

Veteran actress Reema Khan also extended her warm wishes through a heartfelt video message, captioning its: “Happy New Year 2025! May this year bring us endless joy, success, respect and cherished moments with our loved ones. May Allah guide us to choose the right path Ameen 🤲😊.”
