TV journalist, philanthropist and former wife of PTI chairman Imran Khan, Reham Khan announced the release of her tell-all biography on Amazon today.

Titled Reham Khan, the 563-page biography is said to detail the main events of her life as she balanced motherhood with a career that veered from broadcasting to social activism. However, the book caused a furore prior to release due to its rumoured portrayal of her ex-husband Imran Khan as well as other notable personalities like former cricketer Wasim Akram and business Zulfiqar Bukhari.

Reham locked horns over the book's contents with several public figures, most notably TV host/actor Hamza Ali Abbasi who accused her of portraying Imran Khan negatively to further his rival party PML-N's agenda ahead of the elections.

In an interview with CNN-IBN, she referred to her biography as "an in-depth book about my life and relationships" and explains that "those relationships and their problems... have an impact on the futures of all Pakistanis and people in our region."

The book's Amazon page further adds that it "touches on sensitive issues, both political and social, and the author has had to resist extreme bullying, harassment and life-threatening situations to bring it to you."

The book is available in paperback in the UK and select territories and in ebook format worldwide.

Reham Khan has already racked up some sales, as tweets have started pouring in about its content:

A shorter pirated PDF version of the book that totals to 365 pages started doing the rounds on the internet soon after Reham announced her book's Amazon release.

This is done and dusted. Would have bought the book if Reham had also pointed out the wrongs in Nawaz Sharif and Zardari.

I had a quick read of the free sample from amazon and my first impression is it’s full of lies and made up stories. Looks like she has read many other domestic violence stories and tried to fit her story in to malign her former husband. She talks about abuse and beating from her husband , yet give no reason why her husband would do so, and why was she happy , and had access to all the luxury by her husband.she portray herself as educated, modern, liberal , living in the Uk yet not report her husband abuse while she always at home on her own. It’s just the matter of a phone call in the UK. One will understand all this if she was not educated or couldn’t speak English or her husband had job or other financial issues. Doesn’t make sense .

An experienced journalist highly educated Reham Khan said she didn’t not know why she voted PTI in the past and did not know her ex-husband well before marrying him. Is it a joke or reflection on her ability if she can be trusted for any thing she has to say in her book?

One cannot say anything unless one reads the book. But the controversy generated by it and the openly threatening PTI enthusiasts like Hamza Ali Abbasi leaves you in no doubt that poor Reham Khan is the victim of calculated misogyny!

@M.Saeed - £7.50. I just read the kindle sample available on Amazon UK which is the first 4 chapters. I think this would be very outrageous for her first husband to read all those details without being able to defend himself as it's like 'my word against yours.' On the face, it looks like a cheap read detailing intimate moments in her life and proclaiming being naive at every important stage of her life, moving the blame on others. Since there is nothing in the book that seems of substance. On this basis I decided not to buy.

After reading her ebook, my take is that Her book is just a fairly tale and based on imagination. Most of the things she mentioned happen to most youungsters in western societies where she grew up. It appears she observed those things in UK nightlife, and replaced those characters of real life with IK. Waseem A and others. My suspicion and curiosity of reading her book began after initial leaks about late wife of Akram as all the other stuff aside. I simply could not believe in this accusation. And after reading her book, now I am convinced its all fictious with a touch of sex, drugs and rock n roll. Well we all have heard this 3 letter slogan many times before attributed to western nightlife.

PTI tells Nawaz to sue English newspapers for owning additional properties if news is fake. Now it is PTI or Imran Khan turn to sue Raham Khan in England for fake stories published in her book. IA should request court to get her book pulled from Amazon, and get millions of dollars of damages to donate to his cancer hospital.

If she can get a lot of people to buy it, then she’s all set for life. Reading it is optional. It’s all a numbers game. The more books she sells the more royalty she gets. The only thing worth mentioning in her life was her short marriage to IK . It must have been too hard to not encash on that. Says a lot about her!

I believe if the author read the book or any pages or so, they'd find it entertaining in the way one finds a train wreck of a fanfiction, if with only better vocabulary. Inform people before they waste money? Or will a book review follow this announcement?
