TERRIBLE DAY FOR INDO-PAK RELATIONS

The Desi queer community is in SHAMBLES

Desi girls in my phone how are we holding up

The next time that you find yourself looking for love,

Don’t forget about all of the love that already exists inside of you.

Love is in your skincare routine,

It’s in the water that you put beside your bed

It’s in the replay of that comfort show or favourite song

And the mental health walks that you go on

It’s in way that you look both ways before you cross the street

The way that you stop for that Saturday morning treat

Love is in the way that you light candles

And cook the meals

It’s in the way that you decorate your place

The way you take time to write about how you feel

Love is all around you

It’s within you

Through you

You don’t have to look for it

The constant, is you

i am so disappointed. i was genuinely rooting for them. sending all my wishes to anjali

Sufi Malik cheating on Anjali Chakra a week before their wedding was NOT on my 2024 bingo

Went to a meet and greet with Sufi & Anjali in NYC 🗽

This 3D-printed bust of Baseera Khan’s body highlights the ways the body archives trauma.

In contrast to stagnant statues in museums, Khan’s self-portrait statue depicts movement and action, as their torso and head pivots to the side. The sculpture’s fractured curvature underscores society's veneration of the “S-curve” of idealized bodies, from symbolic historical sculptures of Hindu goddesses and deities—often the only images of South Asian women visible in museums—to the age of social media. A speaker protrudes from the heart chakra, as Khan’s voice rings out from the I Am An Archive music album that can be heard throughout the gallery, and will be performed by the artist and their collaborators on July 7.

[ad_1] When famous people split, fans aren’t always privy to the reason. Most are left to social media sleuthing and questionably sourced rumors to piece the story together. But sometimes, there are couples who choose to come clean.Transparency may hold greater appeal for influencers, who, unlike certifiable A-listers, have an incentive to live as much of their lives on the feed as possible. But even by the oversharing standards of most content creators, admitting that you cheated is going above and beyond the call of duty.Anjali Chakra and Sufi Malik, a popular influencer couple, have announced their breakup after more than five years of dating (and a few weeks before getting married) by having one of them admit in an Instagram post on Sunday that she was unfaithful.In two separate statements that sent shock waves throughout their following, the pair said they were calling off their wedding and moving forward separately.Who are these people?Ms. Chakra is an event planner and content creator. Her now-ex partner, Ms. Malik, is a content creator as well. They live in California and met online after following each other’s Tumblr profiles, the pair said in a 2019 “How We Met” YouTube video. They began dating in 2018 and announced their engagement online in 2022.Their online celebrity was kicked off when images of the couple nuzzling adorably under a rain-spattered umbrella made the rounds on social media in 2019, with many rushing to proclaim them relationship goals. Another set of photos celebrated their first anniversary that same year.Along with posting fashion, lifestyle and travel videos, the couple used their platform to raise awareness for people in marginalized and L.G.B.T.Q. communities.What happened?On Sunday, the couple announced in synchronized black-and-white statements on Instagram that the wedding was off.Ms. Chakra declined to be interviewed for this article, and Ms. Malik did not respond to requests for comment, but both women’s statements allude to Ms. Malik’s having cheated just weeks before they were set to be married. It’s unclear how Ms. Chakra became aware of the infidelity, but apparently it was enough to dissolve the entire relationship.“I made an unrecognizable mistake of betrayal by cheating on her a few weeks before our wedding,” Ms. Malik wrote on Instagram, referring to Ms. Chakra. “I’ve hurt her tremendously, beyond my own understanding. I’m owning up to my mistake and will continue to do so.”In her own Instagram statement, Ms. Chakra wrote that they had “decided to call off our wedding and end our relationship due to infidelity committed by Sufi.” She captioned the post with a brokenhearted emoji.While Ms. Malik asked for forgiveness and privacy in her post, Ms. Chakra wished for “no negativity to be shown” toward her ex.Why should I care?While the names of these two influencers might not ring a bell, in an industry in which representation of queer South Asian, Hindu and Muslim people can be slight at best, Ms. Chakra and Ms. Malik have been widely considered positive representations for those who haven’t always had role models they could directly relate to.They created an online form through which their supporters could submit questions and request advice on topics including relationships, coming out to immigrant families and navigating queerness online.On their TikTok, YouTube and Instagram profiles, they regularly post lifestyle content, including videos about Ms. Malik’s growing up Muslim and queer and planning their wedding. Their chemistry and romance seemed palpable through the screen.So it’s no surprise that the news of the breakup was a real blow to fans who have grown attached to the pair and their relationship.Some expressed their sadness over the news, begging the pair to try to reconcile and wishing them the best going forward. Others were shocked at the news of Ms. Malik’s infidelity. A few even took the opportunity to hit on Ms. Chakra.“I hope you have support around you in this difficult time,” one user wrote in Ms. Chakra’s replies. “You’ve helped so many queer South Asians feel seen and at home through your journey. Wish you nothing but the best.”What makes this breakup so unusual?Celebrities and other public figures are expected to be elusive when it comes to the private matters of their relationships and breakups. In this case, Ms. Malik and Ms. Chakra are actually giving us the why, which those following along at home typically don’t get in these situations.Also, their separate but highly coordinated statements — down to the matching graphic design of the posts, the inverted text colors, the corresponding black and white heart emojis and the similarly corporate language — is a disconcertingly polished way to announce that you’ve been betrayed. Perhaps no matter how sad the news, the content still has to look good.Wow, having a public relationship sounds stressful.While being labeled #couplesgoals can be flattering, it’s not always easy to have your relationship — the good, the bad and the ugly — online for all to see. Their decision to reveal the reason behind the end of their engagement takes guts. But coming clean to get ahead of speculation and unconfirmed gossip isn’t a new strategy. (See: Try Guys, 2022.)But is it our right to know all the details?Fair question. In the case of Ms. Malik and Ms. Chakra, it’s unclear how they came to the decision to have Ms. Malik take such public accountability and admit exactly what she did. Maybe this is how Ms. Chakra gets her lick back: by eliminating her ex’s privacy? Or maybe they just felt, especially after sharing so much about their relationship online, that it was important to be honest with any of their followers who might have put their relationship on a pedestal.Send your thoughts, stories and tips to [email protected].

Lesbian influencers call of wedding after cheating scandal

Popular lesbian influencers Anjali Chakra and Sufi Malik have announced their split just weeks before their planned wedding. 

In coordinated Instagram posts on Monday, Anjali and Sufi told fans that they had made the decision to split after Sufi cheated.

“I made an unrecognisable mistake of betrayal by cheating on her a few weeks before our wedding,” Sufi wrote.

“I’ve hurt her tremendously, beyond my own understanding. I’m owning up to my mistake and will continue to do so. I understand the gravity of the situation and can only ask relentlessly for forgiveness, from Anjali and Allah.”

In her own post, Anjali also acknowledged the infidelity.

“What we have shared has been so full of love and nothing short of magical — I will choose to remember it this way.”

“Since the beginning, your outpouring of love and support has played such a special part in our journey and we will continue to carry that love with us moving forward.

“This may come as a shock but our journey is now shifting. We have decided to call off our wedding and end our relationship due to infidelity committed by Sufi.”

However, she also write that she wishes for “absolutely no negativity to be shown towards Sufi,” and for her followers to “respect this difficult decision.”

Who are Sufi Malik and Anjali Chakra?

The couple first gained a following back in 2019, after a photoshoot for a South Asian designer went viral.

A tweet that photographer Sarowar shared of the shoot received over 42,000 likes, with people celebrating the photos’ depiction of a queer, South Asian, interfaith love story — Sufi is Muslim and Pakistani, and Anjali is Hindu and Indian.

The couple went viral again in the same year after sharing their one-year anniversary photo shoot.

“When we first started dating I used to let go of Sufi’s hand a few blocks before my office when she walked me to work because I was scared people would find out I was queer,” Anjali wrote.

“Fast forward a year and we spent our anniversary at my cousin’s wedding, where she met 50 members of my extended family who loved her!

“Here’s to many more years of growing in our love, together.”
