Pakistani actor Umer Aalam, known for his theatre beginnings and acclaimed performances in dramas like Shehnai, Pehli Si Muhabbat, Raqs-e-Bismil, and films like Parchi, recently tied the knot with Fiza Umer in a lavish Karachi wedding. Umer gained widespread recognition after winning Tamasha Season 1, and his work in Yasir Hussain’s theatre project Monkey Business has also been praised by fans.

The wedding ceremony brought together a host of Pakistani celebrities, including Hania Aamir, Aiman Khan, Minal Khan, Mansha Pasha, Momina Iqbal, Zhalay Sarhadi, Sheharyar Munawar, Yashma Gill, Yasir Nawaz, Nida Yasir, and Yasir Hussain. For the Barat, Umer wore a traditional off-white sherwani with a qulla, while his bride Fiza dazzled in a deep red Indian-style lehenga and choli, adorned with intricate dabka and tilla embroidery, completed with elegant gold jewellery.

The event quickly became a hot topic on social media, not just for the glamour and fashion but also for interactions between celebrities. Videos of Hania Aamir and Yasir Hussain meeting at the wedding went viral. The two actors, longtime friends, were seen chatting animatedly and reminiscing, sparking a flurry of reactions online. Fans were divided over the warm interaction; some praised their friendship, while others criticised the display, calling it “overly excited” or inappropriate for a public setting.

Many viewers also noted the absence of actress Iqra Aziz, while others commented on Hania Aamir’s friendly nature and her seemingly close rapport with Yasir Hussain. Netizens debated the social etiquette of celebrity interactions at weddings, with some questioning the exuberance shown during the meetup.
