False pictures and information of Bakhtawar’s soon-to-be fiance had been doing rounds on social media since last week. Without any confirmation, people flooded the internet with random guesses about who the groom is.
Amidst the gossip-fest on social media, the Pakistan Peoples Party decided to take to Twitter and clear the air regarding “all the misinformation being shared on social and electronic media”.
The official statement read: “Mahmood Choudhry is the son of Mohammad Younas and Begum Suraiya Choudhry who hail from the old town of Lahore, Pakistan. Mr Younas migrated to the United Arab Emirates in 1973 where through hard-work he established businesses in the construction and transport industry.”

They further revealed that Chaoudhry, born on July 28,1988 in Abu Dhabi, is the last born of the five siblings.
“He completed his primary schooling in Abu Dhabi and secondary schooling in the United Kingdom. Mahmood further went on to read law at the University of Durham.”
Lastly, the entire family resides in UAE as Mahmood’s tech, finance and construction businesses are situated there.
While thanking everyone for the congratulatory messages, Bakhtawar also clarified in a Tweet that she is not associated with any family in the US.
Thank you everyone for the good wishes. Unfortunately the cards were leaked before even scheduled to be officially sent! Have absolutely NO affiliation with any family in the US which is being popularly quoted by most media. Hope this clears up all misinformation 💗 https://t.co/AprV6ebVfi
