Singer Asim Azhar was doing his #AskAsim session on Twitter during Instagram, Whatsapp and Facebook outrage. While answering questions, a fan told him about her ruined dress and he responded in a very cute way. He literally asked a Pakistani designer — Asim Jofa — to send her a brand new sari. Who does that? Now I want new clothes too.
One more update. I am still lost in the mountains, trying really hard to adjust my routine. I guess it will take some time. And yes I want to sleep a lot…thakkan hi nahin ja rahi ha.
It is going to be sunny.

MOVIE ON NETFLIX: The Social Network
This is the best time to watch this film. It is about Mark Zuckerberg and his friend Eduardo Saverin as they go through Harvard and to build the most successful social media platform ever, Facebook. It is a film about selfishness and where you can find yourself. You can have billions of dollars but you won’t have any friends. It’s an amazing film and I highly recommend it. Just get up and watch it.
