IN THE SPOTLIGHT
BEHIND
THE PR MAVEN!
W
Up, close and personal with Bilal Mukhtar
What is your biggest motivation? Since I belong to Faisalabad my biggest motivation was to stand on my own feet, knowing that my hard work and dedication will help me achieve greater success.
22
Umm! I’m human, a go-getter, loyal, passionate and creative.
It’s either New York or my own room without cell phone and social media.
If you weren’t a PR Guru, what would you be? I would have been into politics, for sure!
What would you like to be remembered as? I want to be remembered as somebody who achieved everything by being genuine to everyone. It’s better to be true to your client from the start and for me it has always been loyalty over money.
How would you describe yourself in 5 words?
What’s your favorite holiday station?
Who would you look up to as your competition in the PR industry? I think there’s no stop, everyone is in a race and this makes me drive more. There will be no fun left if I start thinking I have achieved everything plus keeping up with this new lot is more fun because of their energy but experience counts I guess.
PAPERAZZI MAGAZINE
2019
What is your greatest professional achievement? My greatest achievement so far was working as an official PR Company in Berlin for Pakistan Fashion Show. It’s always a great pleasure to represent your country and of course your company abroad. Also to represent HSY Solo Fashion show 2018 in USA was amazing. I look forward to more achievements as I don’t think I have achieved the mark yet. Who inspired you join this field? My friends and family especially Khalid Sulman who has been my biggest source of Inspiration and my strongest supporter from Day 1, followed by genuine friends starting from Sabina Pasha, to Salma Turab, Hamza Tarar, Maheen Kardar, HSY, Kamiar Rokni , Maria B and Aamir Mazhar to name a few. What do you do in your free time? I spend time with my family and watch Netflix. I don’t look at my phone, I give time to myself and this is my 2019 resolution to have more me time and it has been going great so far. Where do you see yourself in next 5 years? In 5 years, I see myself being updated with more PR objectives because I think the new era is all about PR so here is to more energetic work, coming up with more creative ideas where people enjoy coming to my events. How do you feel as Bilal Mukhtar events & PR complete its 10th anniversary? Of course, I feel great because I have achieved something which I could have never imagined in 10 years because I could have never imagined a small guy from a small city like Faisalabad making it in Lahore, where stars like Maria B were super supportive and I managed to make a lot of best friends. I think all these people have made it really easy for me that’s why I am looking forward to what the future holds!

#paperazziaboutagirl IN THE FIELD WITH...
Natalia Castillo Shahid MODEL
Who's your best friend? I’ve lived in so many different places and have a lot of close friends but I’m going to have to say my best friend is my brother. What would I grab if my house was on fire? My dog! 1000%. What is my destination for a trip of my dreams? Travelling is such a huge part of my life so there are really few places I want to go that I haven’t been to but top of my list right now is Japan. When I was little what did I want to be when I grew up? I was one of those little kids that just wanted to do everything. One month it was a vet the next it was a pilot and the next a chef. I think I just had a lot of interests and now as a I’ve grown up I think I still keep that same energy of always trying new things and taking up new hobbies. Why limit yourself to doing one thing for your entire life?

Where did you choose to go to & why? We planned a Euro trip and went to 4 different countries including Netherlands, France, Italy and Spain. We always wanted to do an adventure trip to Europe which was only possible without kids because catching planes, scooter rides, and cold weather would have been exhausting for kids.!
planes, trains & automobiles
Travelling is great fun. You get to explore a new place, meet new people and get wiser! We want to know more and will share with you exciting travel stories from a few special people in our section, planes, trains & automobiles! Tell us about the most delicious meals you tried? It wouldn’t be wrong to say that we basically went for food. From Amsterdam’s famous spinach soup to French bakeries in Paris, the food was artisan and super scrumptitous. I particularly enjoyed food in Spain, the goat cheese was divine and so was Italian pizza with lots of sea food in Rome!

What was the most exciting thing you did during your trip? The list is long, we did quite a lot in 17 days. My favorite part would be the scooter ride in Rome, Skiing in Sierra Nevada Spain and New year’s eve in Paris by Sienne River near Eiffel Tower glimmering in its glory!

ARIES (MAR. 21- APRIL 20) Let’s get surreal, Aires! Mercury will retrograde in your psychic and spiritual zone, so get in touch with the mystical on Tuesday. Dismiss nothing as coincidence!

SCORPIO (OCT. 24 - NOV. 22) You're a creative, Scorpio, and Mercury retrogrades in your artistic and confidence zone on Tuesday, helping you realize just how talented you really are.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 23 -DEC. 21) Mercury is back spinning in the areas of shelter, family, and emotional safety on Tuesday, helping you redecorate, refine, and renovate.
