Milad/Mayun 21-3-2017 

 
The city of saints, has recently been in news for extravagant spending on pompous weddings. Tales of groom's arrival on a lion's cage, his face veiled in Gold jewellery. Motorcades of limousines, unlimited dowry, etc. Strange enough, the happening crowd of Multan kept wondering, who were those people? Where the wedding took place? As, despite the flamboyant nature of the events, nobody knew them.  

Rest aside, here we bring to you, story of a wedding where the characters were mightier than ostentation
. Where one could see the true spirit of love, happiness and jubilation, without any pretension. Friends family, together in celebration. And something beyond imagination. For the first time, a Multani wedding trending on Facebook and instagram with a hashtag #jawadwedsmeher.

The mother of the groom, Beena Younas is a well loved personality and extremely popular among the social circles of Multan, because of her sweet and down to earth nature. She has implanted the same humility inside her children. Although, they are owners of Mahmood Group of industries, chain of 
SUBWAY restaurants in Multan and recently launched, extremely successful 'London Courtyard restaurant', but they know, no pride.

There was a long list of 'dholak parties', 'Sangeet; and 'jazz nights', arranged by extended family and friends, in honour of the bride and groom to be. But the formal wedding functions started with a 'Milaad' on 20th March, by the groom's family. Fresh flowers were lavishly used to decorate the enormous sitting area, specially the stage. Separate sitting areas were created for ladies and gentlemen. A renowned 'Naat Khawan', Mr. Adbul Rauf Rufi and his team entertained the audience. Traditional wedding tokens were gifted to the attendees. The event was followed by sumptuous dinner.

Mehndi function was arranged on 22nd March at Multan Garrison Mess. The special feature was the LED dance floor, big enough to carry the weight of dozens of people. Beautifully decorated with traditional stuff in an unconventional way. Lights danced on the floor, lights danced over it, with the music.  There was a separate stage for bride and groom, with an amazing 'flower wall' at the back, standing and hanging glass chandeliers adorned it.

Beena Younas appeared regally beautiful, 
 alongwith daughter in law Sabah Anees and daughters, Saadiya Umair and Ayesha Noman. Interestingly, it was hard to believe that Beena is the mother of the groom, she appeared so young and lively and could easily be believed to be an older sister.

As Jawad (the groom) is friends with many celebrity star singers, people believed, some entertainer will be there for the purpose but NO! The groom, his brother and their friends took over the responsibility. Everybody was in high spirits on Mehndi. Perfectly choreographed dances proved that a lot of practising was involved. It is not every day that you find young business tycoons, political leaders dancing together, but there you could witness it. All family and friends, ladies and gentlemen joined in. There was a giant screen at front, which displayed everything going on dance floor to the audience around. Fireworks on the stage added glam to the fun. The groom danced and danced like a hero and seemed invincible but the show was stolen by a dance performed by groom's brother, Khawaja Anees and his little son. They appeared really cool, dancing on the tunes of 'daddy cool'. It was totally a Wow!

As we all know 23rd March is Pakistan day, the date of the wedding ceremony proved the patriotism of this family. The event again took place at Multan garrison mess (MGM). Separate marquees for men and women were arranged. Event was hosted by bride's family. Entire set up was beautifully done. Groom wore a turban which matched the bride's dress. All the ladies from groom's family wore Red, where men were in Black. Fireworks welcomed the bride on her arrival. It turned out to be another remarkable event.

Valima reception was on 24th March, at the same venue, MGM of course. The decor was breathtakingly beautiful, done by Fiza Gillani of Papermint events. Entire place was loaded with flowers and foliage. Crystal chandeliers, alongwith enormous flower arrangements added majestic, yet romantic touch. Anybody who was anybody was there. Groom looked incredibly cute in a Black formal suit and bride appeared a princess out of fairy tales in a silver MAH GUL wedding dress. Beena Younas and her daughters simply dazzled the place. Actually, everybody at the occasion appeared at their best. The entire environment looked amazing and cheerful. The dinner was followed by a qawali session of Santo qawal. Indeed everything was great about this wedding, alongwith the characters involved in it.

Beena Younas is incredibly lucky lady. Not only her children love her dearly, but everybody who knows her adores her. We congratulate her, the newly weds and all her family for such superb functions, with a comfortable, homely cordial environment. And pray for a happy ever after for the newly weds and all their family. Lots of love and prayers for all of you. Stay blessed!

M.G.M. Swimming pool.

View of the domes of MGM bulding from inside the pool. The crystal clear blue water. Chairs lined up for the spectators. Little pool for the toddlers. Summer is finally here, although, the weather still turns unpredictable at times. But still, one feels like taking a dip in the cool, cool water of a crystal clear pool.  M.G.M (Multan Garrison Mess. Commonly known among  Multanis, by its' old name 'services club'), opens up, pool doors for all its' members every 15th of April. The pool is open air, so it works on seasonal basis. From April to September/ October (if weather allows it).  Last year, the pool remained open, only till May, after that, it was shut down for renovations & could not be reopened because of the 'dengue' scare. MGM pool has always been, undoubtedly the biggest & the best in this city, with an excellent filtration plant to boast & an extremely dedicated team of military men as workers, for maintaining th

Leading lady of Multan Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar

Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar is a name synonymous with women empowerment in entire South Punjab. She is a living proof of the saying, 'empowered women, empower other women'. She became a member of Majlis-e-shurra of Pakistan and served at that position from 1982 to 1985 and dedicated herself for the betterment of underprivileged women of South Punjab.  Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar was fully aware of the talents of the women of this area and knew how their skills were exploited at home and at work. She was determined to uplift and raise their standards of living, through education and trainings. She was among first people to ever demand a separate university for the girls of Multan and remained persistent about it. Finally, it bore fruit, three decades later, in form of women's university Multan.  Not just education, but she has worked for the social and economic empowerment of the women too. She is the president of Ladies club Multan. A social platform, which exists fo

Floral fiesta by Mahwish Abdulhaq

Mahwish Abdulhaq with Hafsa Ali and Mahwish with her son Musa March is the month of flowers and fragrances, this was exactly what Mahwish Abdulhaq, (famous for her project Enlightened Multan) had in mind to celebrate her turn to throw a party in FMS committee party. She selected 'flowers fiesta' as theme for the event. When she floated the plan among other members, they pooled in their own ideas too. Floral clothes, hair styled with flowers, garlands.  Yet, what unfolded when they reached Mahwish's respledent house, surprised everyone. Nobody could have imagined the amount of the flowers which adorned the place. Vases and vases, full of flowers. Garlands for the guests, bouquets for the winners of different games planned by Mahwish and her children.  Mahwish's children, Hanifa, Musa and had planned a T20 for the guests. All of them were taken to the lawns, where wickets, bats and balls awaited them. Musa and his brother lead as captains and they picked their players fro
