Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan is under immense pressure from his family members to get married in the near future, family sources have revealed.
According to them, Imran’s sisters in particular are very insistent that he get married in a bid to avoid personal vilification.
“They are sick of personal attacks against Imran… they cannot take this anymore and as such want him married soon,” a source said.
While the PTI chief’s response to the development is unknown so far, family sources said his sisters have already selected a lady for him from within the family.
They added that if all goes well, Imran will be married soon.

Imran Khan is too commanding because he has a Dictator mind. He cannot co-exist with another human being, wants everyone to simply follow him.
A lady from within the family ....
IK , it's better to save your family first than the nation . Others are taking care of nation .
How old is he now? 65? 70? Shouldn't he get his children married first? Just wondering.
@ Ayesha You have certainly given a new definition to 'leading from the front'. The fact is people in our city are facing all the hardships; killings, extortion, land grabbing, street crimes, robberies etc etc how on earth is he leading them from the front by living in London in assets of billions?
@Ebad: Of course he did by giving away his family property to the party, by not contesting elections, vying for any position in the set-up, his real brother and nephew martyred. You might like to consider that leading from the front sometimes has less to do with location and more with spirits.
@Mujeeb: most people do,they dont admit though, you are generous :)
@ Ayesha M Led from the front? I never knew that the front of Pakistan lies in UK.
@Yousaf Hyat: I don't drink .
But she was drinking. She was out with staying with a couple she was staying with in dubai . The wife was upset and was telling everyone that IK's sister is hitting on her husband .
That's why I think it's a bit rich on her part to be asking IK to settle down.
@Aysha M: 100% agreed
What about Maryam Nawaz!!
Is he planning to marry Paris Hilton?
His personal life will remain questionable irrespective of his marrietal status, he needs to clarify things if he has tge guts to give an answer.
So it will be GameOver for Imran Khan.
I think there must be a difference between a gossip and news... moreover, the dirty politics of 90's should not be repeated in the new era... only the politicians of 90's remember the dirty tricks as their hands still stink with what they have been doing...
Marriage is not a bad thing but i think this is not a right time,he should be marriage but after taking Prime Minister OATH!
Perhaps the emptiness in his life, which he is trying to fill desperately by becoming Prime Minister, will be filled by a woman. Maybe then he will leave this poor nation alone.
I hope he finds someone better than Seeta White or Jemima Khan!
@i4shad, dude you should get " the comment of the year award ". but what do you mean by " straight" lol.
@Blithe: He is an asset my friend - an intangible one - people like you cant value him
@Chachoo: You watch out buddy. There are people for whom you have nothing but respect.Those who have been chasing women all their lives with a negligible break may resume their activities. And then we have those who have devoted their lives for their people, and led from the front since their 20s, a phenomenon the world hd not witnessed before. So be careful before you name names
An affair must be going on already, here "immense pressure from family members" is just an excuse to save him from embarrassment.
what a family! instead of telling him to be a man and own his defects, they tell him to cover his defects by ruining another woman's life! And what is this non-sense to use this guy's first name in a news, is he your cousin or something?

@i4shad: Dont think he will ever be lacking for that.
Kindly arrange the Waleema of Sheikh Sahab, Altaf Bhai and Imran Khan on the same day and same venue to avoid hefty costs.
Ludicrous is the word for the story and pretty much sums up tribune as well.
@Jibran: continue with your PMLN-phobia. It will further aggravate in you when the PTI parliamentarians resign during next week and by-elections are held in all those constituencies. Soon PTI will become a history like AAP of India.
Sad that this is the 4th ranked report. Tabloidish behavior. We need to leave peoples personal lives aside and focus on their professional lives.
He can't get married right now, because the Israeli government is too busy bombing Palestinians at the moment, and all marriage venues in Tel Aviv are closed due to constant air raid sirens.
@i4shad: I think you skirted the Tribune Censors ...probably donot know what Laid means ...lol..
@Blithe: Not very nice to accuse someone like this .Were you in that "Dubai Bar " when the accused entered ?... and if yes what were YOU doing there ...?
@Asad: Wow, instead of having a 'complete audit' and finding out the exact number of his family members, something to 'slow down' the defamation process is put in place, toying with a lady's life. Well done
If he can have free milk why should he keep a buffalo. Keep it up. Keep following Kamal Attaturk.
@Ali Quaid: yeah he had his fill,way more than that
Are you serious ET? Didnt know you switched over to become a gossip magazine.Very pathetic, I must say.
We heard same kind of news about Mr. Shahbaz Shareef.
Then IK will lose the support of all single and eligible divorced women who support PTI because they are in love with him. That could be half of 1 million marchers to Islamabad. Not a good wrench to throw into the works right now.
A distraction. Definitely the news planted by PMLN.
I never knew that Imran Khan is not married.
Sadly confusion remains the running thread in his life on all fronts, may it personal, professional or political. My sympathies with the lady selected
Why are they sick now? Why not when the dear brother engaged in a series of frivolous behaviours.Its just a feeler to test public sentents
after-all our next PM has to have "first lady"
We should be ashamed as a nation for questioning the resolve of a man's unwavering commitment to a cause. Let us ask ourselves a simple question: do we not know of the affair(s) of at least one married person around us? Even known politicians?
I think once he gets laid then his anger will settle down and he can think straight....
However....i am expecting mid term elections by the end of this year.
Then, he wouldn't have a lot time for castigating other politicians.
Is this really newsworthy when there are so many serious issues happening in the country??
Lady from within the family? Not good.
Seriously leave the guy alone
Umar Chema from Geo would be his best man
I wonder why his sisters have such an issue. One of them frequents Dubai bars pand leads quite a debauchee lifestyle herself .
It's about time! He's a walking liability to PTI with all the scandals.
Great news. Hope a grand wedding takes place with participation from all the SAARC countries is Halima. Wish couple visits Taja Mahal before taking any other trip outside Pakistan.
He's already committed to his country. No chance of a woman now.
