Ayesha Talpur, daughter of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader and Women’s Wing President Faryal Talpur, is set to marry Syed Shabbir Ali, a Karachi-based businessman, in a high-profile wedding that has attracted attention on social media. The celebrations began on January 2 at Zardari House in Karachi with traditional Mehfil-e-Milad festivities and will continue through January 14, culminating in a luncheon in the couple’s ancestral town of Shaheed Benazirabad.
Syed Shabbir Ali, who is related to the Talpur family through his mother, completed his early education and MBA from the Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Institute of Science and Technology (SZABIST) in Karachi. He previously served with the Sindh Board of Revenue before leaving government service to pursue entrepreneurial ventures, including managing an elite-class restaurant in Karachi and business interests in Dubai and the UAE.
The upcoming wedding has become a topic of interest among political circles and the public, with posts from relatives including Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari featuring in coverage of recent pre-wedding events.
