** <2026-03-07 Sat>: "یک نہ شود دو شود" (Yak na shud, do shud)

Literal Meaning:
"One didn't happen, two happened."

Interpretation:
It's used when someone fails to achieve one thing and ends up with an even bigger problem or loss — essentially, adding insult to injury. Instead of just missing out on one thing, they end up worse off than before.
