Podcaster, Author, and Stand-up Comedian Shehzad Ghias is officially launching his much anticipated book, “Pakistan Lost: Ideas on the Idea of Pakistan” at an exclusive event on October 4th, 2025, at Habitt, Karachi.
The evening will bring together an intimate circle of readers, cultural voices, and thought leaders for the first unveiling of the book.
The panel for the talk will consist of Shehzad Ghias, Samya Arif, and Nadeem Farooq Paracha, and it will be moderated by Ella Hussain. Shehzad Ghias will then host a public event on October 17th, 2025, creating a larger space for audiences to connect with him and engage in dialogue around the book’s themes.
“Pakistan Lost: Ideas on the Idea of Pakistan” is a bold and thought-provoking exploration of the country’s history, politics, and Identity.
In his trademark style that blends wit, sharp analysis, and fresh perspective, Shehzad examines how Pakistan’s founding ideals have evolved over time, while unpacking critical issues such as nationalism, governance, and the struggles of a divided society.
The book serves not only as a reflection on the past but also as an invitation to imagine a more inclusive and forward-looking future for Pakistan.
