Published

on

To mark World Emoji Day, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that WhatsApp would now allow users to react to messages and group chats with a full range of fun emoticons and skin tone selectors within conversations.

Earlier, users could only use six emojis to react to messages and group chats, which has now been changed to the full Emoji keyboard to make conversations livelier and fun, a statement released in this regard read.

Emojis come in handy during conversations, and some trends shed light on who we are in our digital lives, our likes and dislikes and the way we respond to life situations in digital communications. 

Pakistanis have also increased dependency on visual-based communication which led to a new vocabulary of emojis, GIFs, and camera-based messaging, which is making us more expressive than ever before.

In Pakistan, some emojis clearly remained the top favourites on Facebook, which include:

  • Face holding back tears
  • Face with peeking eye
  • Saluting face

It was also noted that Generation Z users, aged between 18-24 years, used the red heart most. They also use the emoji, face with tears of joy, heavy black hearts, thumbs up, and rolling on the floor laughing the most.

Aamir Khan declared his retirement from the film industry.

Aamir Khan, a prominent actor and director with over 35 years of service in Bollywood, revealed that he nearly withdrew from his work a few years ago, but his family persuaded him to reconsider this choice.

In a recent joint interview with his former spouse Kiran Rao, Khan stated, “I resolved to resign prior to Laal Singh Chadha.” I was undergoing a personal journey.

“As the Covid pandemic waned, I abruptly recognised that I have devoted the majority of my adult life, from the age of 18 to the present, entirely to cinema and films.” Consequently, I perceived that I had not sufficiently supported my connections with my children, siblings, and family. Regardless of whether it was Kiran or Reena during my marriage to them. He articulated that he believed he had not sufficiently supported these individuals. I experienced significant shame and was dissatisfied with my actions. Having completed numerous films over the past 35 years, I can now concentrate on my family.

The ‘Taare Zameen Par’ actor recalled the moment he informed his family of the news. He remembered, “I gathered my family and expressed my desire to abandon my film career to spend time with all of you.” My reaction was not due to any disappointment with the film.

“Junaid and Ira, his elder children from his first wife Reena Dutta, persuaded me to continue.” Junaid enquired, ‘Why must you oscillate between extremes?’ There exists an intermediary space in which one can reside. They elucidated that to me, and I returned. Khan disclosed that no one was aware of his resignation, ultimately stating, “No tangible outcome resulted from it.” It was merely my individual path.

Aamir Khan will next appear in the self-produced film ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’, alongside Genelia Deshmukh and Darsheel Safary. The spiritual successor to ‘Taare Zameen Par’ (2007) is set for theatrical release on December 25.
