Lollywood actor Meera has announced that she is marrying a Pakistani-American Naveed Shehzad, Express News reported on Sunday.

Meera, who recently adopted two baby deer in order to raise awareness about animal rights, is likely to get engaged to Shehzad – an airline captain on February 19 in Lahore, sources said.

“Shehzad is a family friend and I will be getting engaged to him on my family’s insistence,” Meera said.

As reported earlier, the Lollywood diva and veteran actor-turned-director Reema Khan married US based Pakistani cardiologist Dr Tariq Shahab on November 19, 2011. The nikkah took place at a court in Virginia, during which the actress wore a green outfit designed by Hasan Shehryar Yasin.

While talking to the media Reema had advised girls to follow her example and abide by their parents’ decision concerning marriage.

    I hope he is retired, because with that poor power of judgement I would not want to be on that plane.

    I am very surprised to see all the negative comments here. She is part of film industry and whatever she does is part of her job. Veena Malik episode was entirely different but other than that when anyone of these showbiz personalities has something going on in their personal lives I think we should leave them alone. They also have a heart like all of us and want to settle down one day. So how about wishing them a good future ahead instead of all the insulting remarks? Cheers!
