PESHAWAR: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s paternal cousin Noor Jahan has announced she will contest the upcoming election from the city.

Speaking to Geo News regarding her participation in the polls, Noor Jahan said, “I hope people support me in the same way they support Shah Rukh Khan.”

Noor Jahan talks to a shop keeper in Shah Wali Qatal Bazaar, Peshawar.

Noor Jahan will be contesting the election on a general seat from constituency PK-77. Although she belongs to Awami National Party, Shah Rukh Khan’s cousin will be participating in the polls as an independent candidate.

She belongs to Mohallah Shah Wali Qatal in Peshawar, where she has started her election campaign.

Prior to applying for a provincial assembly, Noor Jahan served as a councillor and has been active in politics since the past few years.

The candidate has full support from her neighbours who said they would stand with her as she has been by their side through thick and thin.

The seat was previously occupied by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Shaukat Yousufzai. It fell vacant after the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly dissolved completing its tenure last week, late at night on May 28.

Will "I'm an Indian actor's cousin" increase her chances of winning in Pakistan ? I don't think so.

Shahrukh Khan is the urdu speaking Indian Khan that carries the title Khan but have nothing related to phuktoons.
These are the same urdu speaking that migrated to Pakistan and make karachi and punjab their home.
But how come they make their connections with the phuktoons of peshawar is beyond me.
That is stupid.

Yes pics are old but cousin seem very frank to each others and such closeness is rare in our culture because cousins are na mahram. It seem back then people were more liberal than now

They are Hindko speaker same as daleep kumar(yousaf Khan) and plenty of Hindko speaker reside in Peshawar. Don't know why you assumed that every peshwari is Pashtun

I don't think she will get votes just because she is cousin of Shah rukh Khan. She will win if she has done something for people in her constituency.. Independent candidate has no party to back them so they only win with support of people. Will be hard for her
