I now get Aaj Tak (courtesy of mom & sis installin some Telugu trash channel) & a bunch of others, the news are much worse than I thought, they keep using some of these hard Urdu words I have never heard before (not even in Bollywood!!!), one I think was muqammal or muqammad I am not sure which, anyway I checked for muqammal in dictionary & it says:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->A mukammal (pass. part. of 'to complete,' &c., ii of 'to be complete,' &c.), part. adj. Completed, perfected, made up; fitted with every requisite; finished; performed, accomplished;--complete, perfect, consummate, most

From what I know "samapt" is easily understood by Hindi speakers for "complete/finish".
Maybe they think they have an audience in Pakistan.
My friend tells me that "Star News" is the worst (I don't get the channel).
