Faran Tahir stars in new season of ‘Scandal’
actor Faran Tahir
London - Muslimchronicle
American-based Pakistani actor Faran Tahir has made his own little place in Hollywood and on American TV. His prominent screen roles include the leader of a terrorist outfit in Iron Man (2008), which he followed up with small but significant parts in the sci-fi movies Star Trek (2009) and Elysium (2013).
He has also cameoed in many television series such as The Practice, NYPD Blue, Lost, and Grey’s Anatomy. His latest is ABC Network’s popular series Scandal, which is now in its seventh season.
Tahir appeared in its recently aired episode as Bashran’s President Rashad, who is the US President Mellie Grant’s (played by Bellamy Young) guest of honour at a state dinner. The episode ends with a hint of romance between the two.
A UC Berkeley graduate in theatre, Tahir made his film debut with Disney’s live-action version of Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book(1994).

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
