Malala looks like a total cowgirl in her first cameo. On Reddit, someone shared Malala’s initial impression and commented, “For some reason, a lot of people are going to be annoyed for this.” A different individual said, “Making weak idiots very, very angry is kind of her thing.” Some Instagram users weren’t thrilled with Malala’s first appearance.
“Doing what she does best… acting,” one person wrote. Everything is now out in the open.” “Acting and hidden talent?,” remarked a second. Nope! You were engaged in it right away.” “Rafah is on fire, and when did she raise her voice for them???” was the remark made by someone else on a post, challenging her purported quiet on Palestine. Someone wrote, “Leave her alone!” in support of Malala. Give her space to live. She does not lead your life.
Malala in her first acting role “I never expected to be in a show,” the campaigner stated in an exclusive interview with British Vogue. When questioned further about how she got the role in Nida Manzoor’s We Are Lady Parts, which centres on the members of an all-female Muslim punk band determined to become well-known.
Amina (Anjana Vasan), Saira (Sarah Kameela Impey), Ayesha (Juliette Motamed), Momtaz (Lucie Shorthouse), and Bisma (Faith Omole)—Malala responded, “I went to the premiere of Polite Society, and I saw her speak there.” That movie is a work of art. It dispelled every stereotype.

“I thanked Nida for making it, and for creating We Are Lady Parts,” she continued. They have such a large audience and are really significant. They are not just for people of colour; everyone can identify with them on many levels, including friendship, family dynamics, and having the courage to pursue your ambitions.
I want women and young people to have the opportunity to represent the world as they see it, and through those stories, we can all connect with one another. This is another reason I decided to enter the entertainment industry.
Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai recently made her acting debut with a surprise cameo in the British television series We Are Lady Parts. In the second season, she appears as a cowgirl, complete with a cowboy hat and horse, during the band’s music video for the song “Malala Made Me Do It.”
The internet’s reaction to Malala’s unexpected appearance has been a mix of surprise and admiration. Many viewers expressed disbelief and excitement on social media platforms. One user commented.
In an interview with British Vogue, Malala shared her enthusiasm for the show, stating, “I binge-watched it in a day. It was so good.” She praised the series for its portrayal of Muslim characters, noting, “It was probably the first show I watched where you had Muslim characters who weren’t side characters—you had five of them as the leads.”
Actor Saif Ali Khan’s house in Bandra, Mumbai was a target for an attempted robbery during the early hours of Thursday morning. The actor was stabbed during the incident and had to urgently be taken to Lilavati hospital and undergo surgery. Now, we have received more updates on it.
We have learnt from sources at the hospital that one of the injuries was quite deep and the actor has received 10 stitches for this stab. The source says, “Fortunately, it has not affected the spine. He was very lucky that the stabs have not affected any of his vital organs. It appears to have been attacked by a knife and he was actually thwarting a robbery attempt.”
The source adds, “Of the six injuries that Saif has suffered, two injuries are deep, two are mid and two are superficial.”

Coincidentally, at the reported time of the robbery, Saif’s wife Kareena Kapoor Khan has put up an Insta story of a girls night in with her friends Sonam Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor, and sister Karisma Kapoor. It had led to speculations that she was probably not at home during the time of burglary. However her team has released a statement saying, “All members of the household were present at home at the time of the unfortunate incident.”
As per recent reports, three suspects have been detained by the Bandra Police in the case.
