Danish Aslam confirms working on a project with Imran Khan
Director Danish Aslam, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming movie ‘Khwaabon Ka Jhamela’, has confirmed that he is indeed working with actor Imran Khan on his next project.
Imran Khan, contesting the general elections from five constituencies across Pakistan, has declared that his party would use “any strategy” to defeat Nawaz Sharif’s PML-N and win the July 25 polls.
The 65-year-old cricketer-turned-politician, who seems to have the backing of the powerful military, is Chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), a political party he launched in 1996.
He is contesting the general elections from five constituencies of the National Assembly.

Khan will be contesting elections from Bannu constituency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Islamabad II in the Capital Territory, Mianwali I and Lahore IX in Punjab province and Karachi in Sindh province.
In an interview to Geo News aired last night, Khan made it clear that the party would use “any strategy” that would help it defeat PML-N and win the elections.
Asked about possible seat adjustments with parties such as Awami Muslim League and PML-Q that he had previously criticised, Khan said, “perhaps I have the best training when it comes to competing since I have been a sportsman. The strategy is to win the match and our [PTI’s] match is against PML-N.”
The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz party was recently in power until the appointment of an Interim Government led by former Chief Justice Nasirul Mulk for the upcoming elections.
“We will adopt every strategy that will help us defeat PML-N,” he said, adding that including people from other parties to the PTI and seat adjustments were all part of the main goal: to win the elections.
“We will also do seat adjustments where we feel PTI doesn’t have a strong candidate against PML-N but some other anti-N League candidate can win the seat.”
Asked about the protests from party veterans over the selection of so-called “electable” in constituencies across the country, Khan defended the choice of candidates.
