Ayesha Omar to no longer host 'Battle of the Bands'

Both the 'Bulbulay' star and Ahmed Ali Butt have been replaced for the upcoming fourth season

KARACHI: Battle of the Bands is launching its fourth season soon, albeit with some changes. The hosts of season two and three - Ahmed Butt and Ayesha Omar - will be replaced by VJs-turned-actors Muhammad Ali Safina and Hina Altaf, stated a press release.

The latter has been in the industry for many years now as she started acting as a child. She has been a video jockey, commercial model, compere and TV show host. However, what gave her national fame was her performances in plays like Ek Thi Misaal.

Speaking of the forthcoming season, Safina stated, “It is a great honour for me to have been given the privilege to host this show. It’s going to be a phenomenal one as all the bands are highly talented.”
