Ek Nayi Cinderella Episode 5 – A Review

True love is not based on beauty or wealth. True love is when someone accepts both the good things and the bad things in the person he/she loves because nobody is perfect. If he/she seem perfect, then it’s not really true love. It’s not something beauty or wealth decides, it’s the heart, the kind of person your loved one is… This has always been my belief. And I still stand by it. Therefore, I refuse to believe that Meesha loves Mayer.It’s probably just a crush but can’t be true love. Today’s episode made me decide who’s team I’m on. Yup, I am totally on Roman’s team now! I think he was hurt when Meesha said that one needs to be handsome and wealthy to be loved. Right now, he’s not paying much attention to his feelings and just wants Meesha to be happy and make Mayer fall in love with Meesha. He really loves her. That’s called selfless love!

Today we also found out that Roman had always been watching over Meesha. I’m really wondering now if Roman is a fairy-man or not. He really hasn’t shown any ‘magic’ signs. But then how did he get the Cinderella dress, and how does he show up suddenly(like he did in front of Meher). I am confused. We will probably find out later. But I am enjoying his performance very much. Faizan Khawaja is playing his role very well. I think the role he is playing looks like fun. Roman and Meesha have something in common; both are adorably and purposely trying to bug the people they work for. I think it’s cute! But Roman is more clever. He is taking his steps carefully around Meher. I can’t help but think Meher is planning something regarding Roman. I wonder what she’s thinking.

Zaini has convinced Mayer that she is the girl he met on the night of the festival. He has now completely fallen for her. But can’t he tell the difference between the way the mystery-girl(Meesha) and Zaini talk and behave? I so wish he finds out. Come on Mayer! You have to realize it!

Overall, it was a slow episode but it was interesting. Everyone is doing an outstanding job and I am really liking the story. I believe the next few days at Bano’s will be very important for the story. There is a lot we don’t know yet so I am also looking forward to all the answers. There’s still a lot of the story left so anything can happen.

  • I absolutely loved this episode. Each & every scene was interesting. ANC may not be a thought provoking drama, but it is a feel-good drama. It is so much fun to watch.

  • Very nice GQ :)

    well,mjy meesha ka wealth r lOok k bary me cOmments sy kafi dispOintment hOi..rOman gOt hurt :(

    • Thanks :)
      Yes, pata nahi Meesha ka reaction kya hoga, lekin ho sakta hai Romaan fairy-man ho, you never know ^_~

  • This is such a sweet & romantic show. It is so nice to see young, good looking people romancing on screen, instead of the usual Buddhas that we regularly see.

  • Best Drama……ANC has become the # 1 show on tv , according to Top Drama of the week list. Good job is done by entire team of Anc.

  • I simply adore this play. The scenes between Meesha & Romaan were too cute. Mayer is very good looking as well. Although the girl playing Zaini is very pretty but I don't want Mayer to fall for her.

  • ANC is now on the Top of the list in ratings. I hope it stays there. I am totally team Mayer. He's soooooo handsome. I want Meesha & Mayer to be together. I think they will be because this is a Cinderella story & Cinderella has to get Prince Charming.

  • Loooooove this drama. It has such a sweet, young, fresh feel to it. It's like a breeze of fresh air among all the heavy duty stuff.

  • thanks for the review GQ :) It was a good filler episode. a bit on the slower side but I still enjoyed it. I am with you on team Rooman. Mayer is just a pretty face – all dolled up to look like Prince Charming. And Meesha def. has a crush on Mayer which is quite evident. I did like how she was so open with her Daadi and told her that she likes him. Nicely done!
    Hope things pick up from next week but then I am guessing this is a 20+ episode play – if it is then we might be in for some more slow episodes.

    • My pleasure :) And yes I agree I felt it was slow too.Yes, Meesha doesn't truly love Mayer that's why I think Meesha and Romaan should be together. Well, OKB said it was 18 episodes or so.

  • Hi GQ….nice review. I'm totally enjoying this serial. I'm most definitely Team Romaan. He is so good looking. Do u think he's related to Fahad Mustafa? Romaan surely looks like him.

    • Hi :) Thanks :) Yes, me too, team Romaan all the way now ^_^ OMG! I thought that too and my mother too cuz he looks like Fahad Sir and his expressions are very similar to his :) But I guess they are not. I checked and I don't think they are related. But I agree, Romaan(Faizan Khawaja) looks a lolt like Fahad Sir.

  • Absolutely adorable review! I completely agree with you GQ. I am also in favor of Roman. Meesha is just for the time being infatuated with Mayer but may be later on she will come to understand that Roman loves her more than anyone else or may be they'll develop a perfectly interesting love triangle once Mayer will find out that Meesha was the girl he was looking for.
