A night of glitz and glamour took place in Canada yesterday celebrating this year’s HUM Awards ceremony. The star-studded event featured some of the biggest names in the industry, including but not limited to Mahira Khan, Atif Aslam, Iqra Aziz, Hania Aamir, Farhan Saeed, Zara Noor Abbas, Ayeza Khan, etc.
The event earlier garnered some criticism from the general population for being hosted while Pakistan faces one of the worst climate repercussions in the form of floods. The flak somewhat died down when the fraternity announced and held a fundraising gala where all of the proceeds went to flood relief efforts.
