Days after confirming second marriage, late religious scholar and TV host Dr Aamir Liaquat Hussain’s Widow Dania Shah and husband Hakeem Shehzad have expressed interest in politics, claiming to contest elections in the upcoming year as independent candidates.
In a recent interview with a local journalist, Hakeem Shehzad disclosed the couple’s plans to step into politics.
"My wife, Dania Shah, will contest the National Assembly seat from Lodhran, while I will run for the MNA seat from Shujaabad," Hakeem Shehzad said.

He added, "We are both preparing for the upcoming elections. If we succeed, we will introduce a presidential system in Pakistan. I don't just talk; I deliver on my promises."
When asked about his views on Pakistan's political leaders, Hakeem Shehzad shared a brave perspective.
"A journalist once asked me who I would prefer to sit with if given the choice between Imran Khan, Asif Zardari, and Nawaz Sharif. I replied that I would prefer to sit with myself because I am a leader in my own right. Why should I follow anyone else?"
It's worth noting that before marrying Hakeem Shehzad, Dania Shah was married to the late Aamir Liaquat Hussain. For Hakeem Shehzad, this marks his fourth marriage.
