Here’s another addition to the countless number of talk show hosts on Pakistani television, and it is none other than the known transvestite Almas Bobby. She can be seen on a relatively new network sitting alongside a gentleman by the name of Agha Iqrar discussing various issues facing society.

It is too early to claim how far she will go in her pursuit to giving other anchors a run for their money, one thing does spring to mind: Almas B comes across as an alternative to, if not replacement for, Begum Nawazish because for some reason she gives off the same ‘begum’ vibe with the difference that Almas B doesn’t rely on humour all the time.
