Here are some of the “developments” from tonight’s episode which yet again proved that Mann Mayal is the joke of the century!
*Jeena apparently locked all the servants in a room before attempting to poison Mannu and her kids!!! We are still trying to figure out how these servants know that Jeena was locking them up so that she could poison Mannu and her kids. Did she tell them why she was locking them up? And if she didn’t tell then how did Jamil figure out there was zehr in the not-so-fresh juice.
*Mikael is killed only after apologizing to every person dead or alive whom he ever harmed – it was a quintessential kuttay ki mout. Illyas from Udaari left his home to find Meeran but on the way he was asked to do this one favor by team Mann Mayal! That is why he did not even have the time to change his get up.
* Salahuddin goes in coma only after hearing Mannu tell him everything he wanted to hear. Mannu is convinced that she is Manhoos therefore from now on we can all call her Manhoos Mannu. Anyone who cares for her or loves her gets a cardiac arrest. Our very own Manhoos Mannu has a new super power now!
*Manhoos Mannu’s conversation with Salahuddin in which she insisted he knew there was zehr in the juice was Mann Mayal logic once again! How could he possibly know? “Aisa thori krte hei” dialogue was so out of place.
Just like every other episode of Mann Mayal, this one too lacked substance. There were too many coincidences and a desperate attempt to make people tune into the show next week. If this drama is doing so well why does team Mann Mayal keep on showing these illogical twists and turns to grab the attention of the viewers? Like I predicted last week this episode banked heavily on zehr and pistol! How many people out there will actually tune in next week because they are dying to find out whether Salahuddin survives or not? I am certain very little because at this point even those people who were watching this drama purely for entertainment purposes have been forced to ask obvious questions which are an attempt to find logic in this very illogical story which has been stretched to the limit. It reminds me of Shukk over and over again!
The preview of the next episode showed that someone finally decided to inform Salahuddin’s parents and Mannu goes back to her parents – better late than never! Mannu wants to start a new life – shukr hai – this could mean that this drama is finally headed towards an ending.
Sorry, no screenshots today – Mann Mayal is not worth the effort!
How many of you watched this latest episode? Would love to hear from you all.

In the last episode the most inspirational character is that of Saba Hamid as when she tells her son Mohid that he physically abused his wife and also pushed her to leave the house in the middle of the night. Whereas it is the responsibility of a husband to protect his wife rather than humiliating her.
The last episode of Dillagi has left such a strong impact on the audience that everyone want to know what exactly will be the ending of the drama serial Dillagi. Whether the director and writer of the story will kill Mohid or both the hero Mohid and heroine Anmol will finally meet each other?
In a statement Humayun shared that they have made two endings of the play and most probably he will share them with audience so that they can tell what ending they want. But on the other hand he also says it seems tough as on hand he believes that Mohid should die as Afzal died in Pyaarey Afzal but he also thinks that majority of the audience want the hero and heroine to meet. So let’s see what the director and writer decides.
Lately , Saira Shakira has got done a photoshoot of the products for Crimson by Ali Xeeshan. No doubt Saira is an excellent designer but this time when the pictures of the shoot came out , it caused problem to many.
Social media spoke out loud against the way the pictures were shot, in a picture the model Sanam Saeed is standing and few men are starring at her in a very demeaning manner. This picture completely seems a support material for harassment.
Another picture by Ali Xeeshan in which the model Amna Baber is standing with Hasnain Lehri and he is forcefully holding her wrist. This picture has also remained the talk of the town. The audience believe it projects male dominance.
Saira and Ali both have tried to clarify the situation that the entire shoot was not done with such intention. Saira said in the Sanam Saeed picture we are trying to show that she is a celebrity and people are just attracted to her good looks. Saira also insisted that let the entire shoot come out and then people should decide what the exact theme is.
Ali also explained on Instagram that he has not thought of demeaning woman in shoot at all, according to him he was only showing the real face of our society. Ali has removed the pictures at Instagram as he believe that people do not want to face the truth.
Anum Akram of Crimson explains the entire thing as internet scandal and people are viewing the pictures out of context.No matter what the context is but pictures really are very disturbing. Sad but true!
Apart from the designers these celebrities Sanam Saeed & Amna Baber who are woman them self must be questioned that why they got ready for doing such kind of shoot, which is just a cheap marketing stunt.

Tickets for the concert are available at Dunkin Donuts, Nueplex Cinema, Aghas and Butlers Chocolate Café.
According to Ali Azmat he comes from the era of Pakistani music when singers worked extremely hard and achieve success but now a days the young talent has easily accessible platforms. According to Ali the rock music in Pakistan does not have a bright future. Whereas Jaswal has a different opinion and believes that rock music just needs some time otherwise it has an excellent future in Pakistan.
So let’s see on this 27th that whether Garaj Baras Saavan Ghir Ayo star wins or Tere Bin star. Well both are excellent singers, therefore we wish both of them best of luck.

The best thing about these award shows was the content which was 100 percent Pakistani with the exception of the language of course. Unlike many other award shows, even those which pay tribute to Pakistani films, this one really did prove that LSA organizers were truly proud of all that Pakistani cinema had managed to achieve in this year. The whole purpose of an award ceremony is to showcase the talent which such a ceremony promises to pay tribute to and although the 15th Lux Style Awards had some lows but it managed to achieve this particular purpose effortlessly. This was also one of those very few award shows which have some emotional moments to its credit. The primary reason for this was that the people who were chosen to host the show and those who performed on different dances were very spontaneous. Ali Zafar turned out to be an incredible host; there wasn’t a single moment when one felt like he was not comfortable hosting this show. Very often the hosts look like they are under pressure and they are trying too hard but Ali Zafar managed to host this grand ceremony without making it look like he had a huge burden on his shoulders. Ali Zafar’s opening performance was not just entertaining but most importantly extremely relevant, intelligent and meaningful.
I am a huge fan of Ahmed Ali Butt and Vasay Chaudhry but it was good to see new faces on the stage this time around. Some of the jokes fell flat but there were others in which the satire was very amusing and also informative at times! The way Ali Zafar introduced Yasir Hussain on stage went to show that they would rather have skipped this part but it needed to be done. Yasir Hussain was just as spontaneous as Ali Zafar and there was hardly a time when it felt like they were following a script. It was also good to see Fawad Khan contributing to this ceremony because it has been a while since he performed in any show. Ahmed Ali Butt and Fawad Khan’s skit was funny especially because of their acting.
The most emotional moments of the award show were Mahira Khan dedicating her award to her father. This particular moment was emotional because her father was present in the audience. Faysal Qureshi dedicating his award to the Kashmiri people was definitely touching. But the most touching moment of all was the way Amjad Sabri was presented with the lifetime achievement award. The lyrics of the song which was sung for him, the performances by all the artists involved, the reaction of the audience and most importantly the presence of his family members on the event were all the factors which made this moment count.
Another aspect of this award show which I found truly impressive was the way the celebrities accepted their awards. All of them gave credit to others more than their own self; their might be a lot of competition in our industry but this was one time when it felt like even with all the competition all of these people are striving for a bigger purpose. Only four dance performances were shown on the show (I watched the show online, if there were more please feel free to correct me). The performance by Farhan Saeed and Urwa Hocane was on a song from the film Manto. Farhan Saeed and Urwa Hocane’s chemistry along with the way this song was choreographed made it entertaining. All three performances by Mahira Khan were energetic and on point. This was the first time Mahira Khan performed on stage but she managed to do it like a pro. Shehryar Munawwar and Mohsin Abbas were very energetic, they made their presence felt. Hamayun Saeed like Fawad Khan is one of those very few stars who have charisma and talent both therefore sometimes their presence alone can make a huge difference.
Sohai Ali Abro didn’t have much to contribute as a host. She was confident and looked comfortable on stage but Ahmed Ali Butt was clearly the one running the show. Ahmed Ali Butt and Vasay Chaudhry always deliver, both of them are witty and confident. The “hereos tayar kiye hei India ke liye” joke was one of those funny and satirical one liners which completely won me over. All the celebrities took the jokes well. Hamza Ali Abbasi’s jokes were funny especially the one about him getting banned all the time. I did however feel like Hamza Ali Abbasi is always trying to prove a point which can be off putting. The cameraman did a great job of covering the reactions from the audience. The “mummy aap kya keh rahi hei” addition to Mahira Khan’s performance came as a nice surprise and reminded me of the Hamsafar days.
Sohai Ali Abro’s performance which was mentioned thrice in the show was skipped altogether. Did the editor decided to chop it off? If yes then I am wondering why he didn’t chop down the parts in which it was mentioned. It was announced but never shown. Also, the controversial joke about “jeena ke maa baap” was edited from the show, which was a wise move. The fact that many of the celebrities did not turn up to receive their awards stuck out like a sore thumb especially because there were celebrities who rejected their nominations by LSA before the award show was held. Although the editing of the show wasn’t perfect but it was definitely good that the dance performances were kept to the minimum and the show wasn’t too long.
Overall, this show was entertaining and it managed to serve its purpose of paying tribute to Pakistani artists and Pakistani content. Out of all the award shows I have seen so far this had to be my favorite.

Ohkay so, it is good to see that things are moving forward in Kathputli. Even though in the initial stages of the drama, it looked like it was going to be a typical story but I like how every episode takes the story in such a direction which we couldn’t predict beforehand.
Ahad finally brought his father to his & Mehru’s home. At least, Ahad wasn’t oblivious of how his father was going to treat Mehru & what he was capable of doing & that is why it was good to see him being extra cautious & worried about what could potentially happen. Ahad’s father has become quite bitter after what he has gone through with his wife passing away & his son abandoning him, but at least it is good that he now has Ahad & Mehru who’re there to look after him. It didn’t take him long to change his perspective about Mehru, which was a surprise & definitely pleasant at that. I thought he was actually going to give Mehru a very very hard time but that didn’t happen. I liked how he reflected on the past & realized how different sharing a space with Ahad & Mehru was. It is good to know that Ahad has finally gotten a chance to take care of his father; who himself is guilt stricken for how harshly he treated his wife her entire life. Sadly, Ahad couldn’t do much for his mother but it is good to see that he is doing everything for his father & not only that, he also has Mehru’s support & understanding too.
What I liked the most about Mehru’s approach was that she didn’t try to push herself in the matters concerning Ahad & his father. She did what she could do to help her father in law but didn’t go hard on herself where she put everything aside, curbed every other responsibility that she had in a hope to impress her father in law. I liked how she continued doing her chores like a routine without worrying much about what Ahad’s father must be thinking about her. The thing that I liked the most was that it was Mehru’s attitude & her conduct that automatically drew Ahad’s father towards her & forced him to realize that she was definitely different & better than Mehwish & that is why he immediately accepted her & told Ahad to be comfortable as well.
I most certainly believe that Saira’s sisterly brother was so not needed in this drama. The way they both spoke on the phone made me believe that Umair will only talk about their past & they will discuss how they used to have a great time in their childhood but the way he kept on prying into Saira’s personal life & interrogated her like an agony aunt was so unpleasant. If Umair feels Saira’s not happy with Ehtashaam then he has all the more reasons to stay away from her life because he should be mature enough to know that he can cause more problems between Saira & her husband with such a nosy attitude & also, what was he trying to imply or instigate by telling Saira’s mother that she was unhappy, like does he want her to leave her husband’s home or what? I would actually hate to see Saira suffering because of Umair, even though Ehtashaam is no exception but at least, she is trying her level best to keep her husband happy so Sister Umair should let her be. Umair’s concerns for Saira were so not needed & I would hate to see him getting more coverage than required.
I so want to feel Zeenat’s pain but she makes sure to say such a thing every single time that makes me dislike her character even more. I know she misses Mehru & feels for her but I have never heard her pray for her daughter’s safety. This time around Zeenat wished that Mehru had died so that Zeenat could live in peace, like what sort of a mother is she? I think she should be ashamed of herself for not being strong enough to protect Mehru herself & also for the fact that she gave Ehtashaam & Hassam all the right to run the course of Mehru’s life. Every time I find myself cringing from hearing Zeenat’s thoughts, Saira comes in like a breath of fresh air who is not only hopeful but optimistic about the fact that Mehru must be doing something amazing with her life. Also, Zeenat is waiting for the day when Ehtshaam will forgive Mehru so that she’d be able to meet her daughter, whereas Zeenat should take a stand for her only daughter, show Ehtshaam his right place & order him to bring his sister home. Zeenat is also completely responsible for what Ehtashaam has done with Mehru & it is actually bizarre of her to be completely alright with the fact that her only daughter is fighting her battles alone, in a hope that someday Ehtashaam will forgive her & then Mehru will be allowed to come back!!! I feel Zeenat on her own has turned herself into a bechari whereas being a mother she definitely can take charge of how things roll in her household & can easily deprive Ehtashaam of the power he has attained!!!
Overall, this episode was good too. Once again, I enjoyed the interaction between Mehru & Ahad. I really like how Mehru speaks with Ahad in an accusatory tone, there’s something quite amusing about it & makes their scenes fun to watch. I loved how Mehru taunted Ahad about obligatory prayers & Ahad ended up listening to her despite getting annoyed. I must say, Umair is giving quite a complex to all the girls out there who have sparse eyebrows, I mean seriously, I couldn’t concentrate on anything else when he was on the screen, lol! Anyways, the preview of the next episode suggested that Saira will be forced to leave Ehtashaam & things won’t be smooth between Mehru & her father in law as well. I just hope that Ahad’s father stops being a party-pooper & respects & appreciates the fact that in this day & age, he has a son who is taking care of him & has a daughter-in-law who is so rooted & decent. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Kathputli.
Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.
This episode once again focused on the lack of any positive developments in Sajida’s case because so far no one is willing to share the truth with Arsh. Arsh’s commitment to this case, the faith he has in himself and his relationship with Meeran was also covered in this episode. For now Arsh is standing out more than any other character in this play. Ahsan Khan has already established himself as an actor who continues to grow and impress. In the previous episode and also in this one Farhan Saeed’s acting was truly impressive. This is the first time I am watching him act and I must say he is a natural. This drama has some incredible performances to its credit but the pace of the drama has slowed down for now. Most of us were expecting this drama to be more about Zebu; her growth as an individual and the story of a survivor but that is not the case. However, the positive aspect of the latest developments is that for the first time we are watching a case like this go to court and the viewers are definitely learning that staying silent in such situations can be suicidal. Arsh knows that Zebu has something to do with this case but his hands are tied. Also, showing Imtiaz making the most of this situation because Sajida will never tell the truth in court goes to show who is actually benefiting from this situation. Arsh’s mother gave her blessings in this episode but even after all these years Meeran has not moved on. Is it because Meeran hasn’t completely forgotten her first love or because she never wants anyone to be in a position to hurt her like that ever again? I must say that even after all these years watching these two people standing exactly where they were emotionally so many years back isn’t exactly easy to connect to. I had a difficult time relating to this particular track even though Urwa Hocane and Farhan Saeed’s acting was on point. Zebu got plenty of screen time in this episode and there were times when Hina Altaf’s acting was up to the mark while there were others when once again I was wondering how could a director who chose someone like Ahsan Khan to play Imtiaz’s role cast someone who was a complete misfit for playing Zebu’s role. Although Zebu doesn’t have a bigger role to play in the picture but even then Hina Altaf makes it very difficult for the viewers to feel for Zebu’s character. The scene in which Zebu grabs a knife to kill Imtiaz could have been far more powerful if Ins-e-Yazdan wasn’t the one who tried to stop her. That particular scene became a lot more meaningful as soon as Urwa Hocane stepped in – which basically goes to show what a huge difference a good actor can make. Imtiaz’s relationship with Malik sahab also got a lot of screen time tonight to show how his support was the main reason behind Imtiaz’s confidence. This is one of those things which has been very well established by now therefore these scenes could easily have been chopped down. Sheedan’s character did not get enough screen time in this episode, I miss watching her scenes. I love the camerawork in Udaari, usually there are more close-ups in dramas and fewer scenes in which all the characters in the scene are covered but that is not the case here.
I wasn’t looking forward to Illyas’ comeback but since we were shown that he will be back in the preview of one of the episodes therefore I am wondering what happened to that development in the story. HUM really needs to work on the previews of their dramas because they are very often extremely misleading. Sajida’s case will start in the next episode, I am waiting to see how this track will be handled. How many of you watched this latest episode? Do share your thoughts about it.
The episode begins with Adil’s mum overhearing him talking about keeping both the girls at a farmhouse. I was surprised at how he had a sinister smile on his face after such a heinous act. He is turning out to be a purely psychotic character. His mother becomes worried. Adil tells his friend Yousuf to take away Geeti’s body from the farmhouse. Aamna, Faiz and Moiz discuss the situation and Moiz can’t understand why there’s so much hesitation on Ubaid’s part to go to the police. Faiz says Moiz doesn’t know all the hassle that goes into dealing with the police. Aamna agrees and Moiz gets frustrated. I feel even though both Aamna and Faiz come across as insensitive at times, they are the ones that actually give a reality check to the other characters.
Tooba is traumatized and remembers all the happy times she spent with Geeti. She remembers one incident when Tooba volunteers to convey Geeti’s feelings to Adil but Geeti tells her she’s not in favour of using a messenger between them. In Tooba’s mind, Adil likes Geeti as much as she does. Geeti says she’s so in love with Adil that she can die for him. The irony of it all makes Tooba more upset.
Salma can’t stop thinking about what she had overheard nor can she share it with anyone, not even her husband. She keeps wondering what her son is actually up to and thinks if her son is behind Geeti and Tooba’s kidnapping. I really wanted her to ask Adil directly or at least talk to Waqar but it didn’t happen.
While praying with Maira, for Tooba’s safe return, Khadija faints. Tania calls their father to take her to the hospital. The doctor comes to see Khadija and says her health has deteriorated due to stress and advices rest otherwise she would be in the hospital. Breaking news comes on TV and everyone gets to know that a dead body has been found in a dumpster which is recognized as Geeti’s. Akhtar falls ill. Adil’s mum can’t believe it’s her son and thinks he can’t be so ruthless.
I felt the scenes from taking Akhtar in the ambulance to the hospital were too elaborate and long. The doctors try really hard to revive Akhtar but he passes away from a sudden heart attack due to shock and immense grief.
Adil comes to the farmhouse and Tooba gets very scared. He threatens her not to speak to anyone about Geeti’s murder so that there’s no witness. He warns her that if she tries to speak he’ll kill her or her sisters and her father will end up like Akhtar.
Aamna tells Maira not to inform Khadija about the deaths. She also says maybe Tooba will have the same fate. Neighbors gossip and want to know what has happened but Aamna doesn’t tell them the truth about Tooba or about her mother’s poor health.
The family doesn’t want to file a case but the police agree to investigate the incident. Ubaid has become very depressed and Waqar tries to comfort him and give him some strength.
Adil’s friend has been instructed to call Tooba’s home and terrorize them so they don’t contact the police or else she’ll have the same consequence as Geeti. Adil doesn’t want to keep Tooba at the farmhouse any longer and asks his friend to help him.
Faiz wants to spend some time alone with his wife. Although Maira is with Faiz, she keeps tense and concerned about her mother and sister. This makes Faiz very annoyed and blames Tooba for spoiling his marriage. I couldn’t understand his sudden outburst and really couldn’t believe that Faiz would be portrayed as an inconsiderate character. I’m hoping there is good reason for this later on in the story.
Yousuf and Adil are such cheapsters, saying all horrible and disgusting things to threaten Tooba into keeping quiet. I am surprised at how a suave, apparently well-bred person like Adil who has such a wise and morally strong father like Waqar can behave like this. Adil tries to reason Geeti’s murder, saying he was provoked by her and lost his temper. Both of them plan on allowing Tooba to go home.
Let’s see how Tooba manages to go home and face everyone’s comments and questions in the next episode.

“Jub dil ka darwaza khul jaye tu chahney wale wapas aa hi jate hei” This episode of Dil Lagi focused on the aftermath of what transpired between Mohid and Anmol but this time around the viewers got to see the reaction from Anmol’s mother after she found out about the lies Anmol had been telling Mohid. Interestingly enough this episode was like a rerun of the discussion under the Dil Lagi review last week. Anmol voiced the opinion of those who sided with her, Anmol’s mother said everything which viewers who thought there was no reason to feel for Anmol said and Mohid did not plead his case at all but he once again pleaded Anmol’s case by saying that perhaps the way he asked her the question wasn’t appropriate. This proves the fact yet again that all the viewers understand these characters and always find it easy to connect to them from some perspective or the other.
Anmol once again is trying harder than ever to follow her mind and not her heart. This time around doing so is even more tough because she has fallen in love with Mohid. Anmol’s meeting with Mohid when she was on her way to see the lawyer was one of the best scenes of tonight’s episode. The dialogues and the way this scene was directed reminded me of the times when Mohid fell in love with Anmol and was trying to win her over. The big difference now is that Mohid is convinced that Anmol loves her, he can see it in her eyes but he doesn’t want her to feel defeated. Also, when Anmol calls him back after he turns to go away went to show that she did not want Mohid to give up on her, on this relationship! In the previous episode Zulekha was shown supporting Anmol and in this episode Anmol’s mother supported Mohid.
“un ka dil aap ki wakalat krta hai”…this dialogue was spot on! We have seen Mohid justifying Anmol’s unreasonable behaviour more than once. Even in this episode he was looking at things from Anmol’s perspective and justifying her actions. Just when I thought Mishal and Dastagir were not playing their roles as the “supporting characters” they did just that by doing whatever they could to once again convince Anmol how wrong she was about Mohid. Mishal stepped in and said something which was clearly shocking for Anmol when her mother was shouting at her for giving her husband a reason to doubt her. Mishal knows Mohid better than anyone else because she heard his response more than once when she proposed that he should deal with Anmol differently.
“Adhay rastay se wapas lot aye. Mera apne faislo pe se etmad khatam hota ja raha hai.” Anmol has a big ego, she will always expect more from Mohid because it isn’t easy for someone like her to submit to her feelings therefore she will always need Mohid to keep on assuring her that he is worth it. Anmol is also extremely afraid of getting hurt which is why she is more angry with herself right now than with anyone else. Will she ever change? Even though she loves Mohid but she still continues to judge him at every step. She wants him to suffer and try harder to prove that he deserves her love, that she can trust him. Anmol’s character is complicated but perfectly etched-out. Everything she does has Anmol written all over it. Mehwish Hayat is absolutely flawless as Anmol even though it is not an easy character to translate on screen.
“Apne ghur ke darwazay kabhi band nahi hotey” was another dialogue which went to show what a big heart Mohid had. Mohid’s character is that of an intelligent man who puts his relationships above everything else; Hamayun Saeed has definitely nailed this character. It is also good to see mothers for a change who can look at things neutrally and at the end of the day all they want is their children’s happiness. Zulekha for example was not very keen on bringing Anmol back because of her “kari shart” in the beginning of this episode but later on when Mohid was going to see Anmol, she was happy. Saba Hameed’s acting and dress sense both are remarkable in this drama.
“Beghairat aur bezameer insan ko kabhi underestimate nahi krna chahyeh.” Mohid’s meeting with Kafayat Ali once again hinted that he was capable of doing anything to get what he wanted done. How many of you think that killing Mohid in the end would be a good ending? I definitely want this drama to end on a happy note because we have seen Mohid and Anmol suffering for too long. Mohid deserves a happy ending and this would be the only way for Anmol to start a new life which might give her a reason to trust people more and judge them less!
Do share your thoughts about tonight’s episode and don’t forget to share what kind of an ending would you like to see. Looking forward to your feedback.

The story line of the movie is very strong and is basically about a journalist who is working in the favor of the people of Kashmir and the government is very much against him and his grandfather. The budget of the film is not that high.
In a statement Fahad said, “I am very delighted that we have won an award for this film. Credit goes to the entire team involved in this project.” “When I decided to make a film about Kashmir, there was never an attempt at glorifying or demonizing any side. I was clear that I wanted to tell the compelling story of one of world’s oldest and brutal conflicts.”
According to the Rick Prickett the chairperson of IndieFest Film Awards, it is not an easy award to achieve. For achieving this award the film makers have to be really creative and multi- talented. So this proves that Fahad Kahut movie “Faryad” is an exceptional work.

Ohkay so, these two episodes of Deewana were definitely better because things moved forward that too at a decent pace. There were some conversations which seemed repetitive but then the overall progress was pretty decent which was much required.
So, Haris has packed his bags & has moved to Karachi. I am still not unsure what to make out of Haris’s move because he threatened Amtul & Tabrez that he’ll drag them to court by spilling the beans in front of Subhan’s family, so I am not sure if his ulterior motive of coming to Karachi is that or he is actually thinking of bringing Mehru back in his life? Haris himself has been quite confused but I wish he had sticked to his plan of exposing Amtul & Tabrez because they are doing nothing except ruining his life. It was quite obvious that Haris was unhappy after what he did to Mehru because his conscience didn’t let him live peacefully & may be that was also one of the reasons he turned against Amtul & Tabrez because he became bitter & bitter day by day. Anyhow, his intentions are still dubious because we have seen both the sides of his personality where he can be stubborn enough to do what he feels like & then he can also easily become a puppet of Amtul & Tabrez. I like this uncertainty for now because it keeps the interest alive & for that reason, I am definitely looking forward to see if Haris actually has had a change of heart or he is just getting Mehru back in his life to torture Amtul & Tabrez & to blackmail them by keeping them on the edge that he might tell on them any time.
Finally, Mehru & Falak have confessed their love for each other & Mehru has done her part of the confession even in front of her parents. Their love story is very sweet because both of them are equally committed to each other & respect each other the most. Now it’s time for Falak to come clean but he definitely knows that his reality will come as a shock to Mehru & his honesty might cost him their relationship, that is why he seemed a little uneasy when Mehru told him that she expects nothing but honesty from him. Mehru already has been through a lot & her husband; the love of her life lied to her, that is why the only thing she wants is honesty but sadly, Falak’s honesty is far more complicated for her fragile mind to handle. I like Mehru’s character for the fact that she is not your typical bechari who will keep on sulking because of what life has thrown at her. She has suffered her part of the pain & that is why she is giving herself a chance because Falak made her realize that she can have a second chance at life too where she can be happy & feel loved as well & for that reason, she is taking a stand for her love & is doing everything to let others know that she is ready to move on in her life.
Shabnam finally put forth a proposal of Gaiti for Falak. I loved the way she convinced Husn Ara & tried to tell how much stuff Gaiti will bring if she will get married to Falak. Shabnam might be annoying for others, but when it comes to her daughter she is just a mother who loves her daughter to bits & would do anything to make her happy. Even though Shabnam wants her daughter to get married to Haris, she still tried her luck with Falak’s proposal as she knew that it will make her daughter happy. I like how all the characters are not completely black & white in this drama & only because of that, they seem real & relate-able as they react differently in different situations.
It was good to know Husn Ara’s side of the story too. It looked like her family owned the kingdom but Agha not only snatched their status away but also killed Husn Ara’s husband & Falak’s father. This is the reason why Husn Ara dreads returning back to her own world as she knows that Agha won’t spare Falak too. I hope they cover this side of the story a bit more where we get to see how Falak will deal with this truth & how he will battle with Agha to restore the status & position of his clan.
To be very honest, the most boring & purposeless characters in this drama are Shama & Subhan. They are just there because they are Mehru’s parents because other than that, not only their scenes are boring, their conversations are repetitive to the core too. The moment Shama starts talking, I fast forward her scenes as I already know what she will be saying – she will either be cursing Mehru, or she will be putting a blame on Subhan & if not that, then she will be playing the self-pity card where she will keep on talking about all the things that she has lost & how she is the only victim. I really feel the editor should edit her scenes out because they don’t offer anything at all!
Overall, these two episode of Deewana were definitely good & I liked most of the conversations. I will say that the dialogue writer has done a fabulous job, it is actually quite refreshing to hear such interesting conversations with meaningful dialogues that shed a light on the beauty of our language. Also, I will add that if it wasn’t for these actors, these dialogues wouldn’t have made such an impact, so props to all the actors for conveying these amazing dialogues flawlessly. Even though in all the scenes, it is hard to tell who’s wearing more makeup; Iqra Aziz or Shehroz Sabzwari but I like how their get ups & overall looks compliment the fantasy genre of the drama, so props to the makeup artists & the stylists as well. Anyways, please share your thoughts about these tw episodes of Deewana. :)
Keep Supporting,
Cheers,

Bollywood film Happy Bhaag Jaye Gi which was due to release on 19th August 2016 in Pakistan has been delayed as the film has failed to get the censor certificate required for its screening. As per BBC Urdu, Mubashar Hassan the chairman of the Central Board for Film Certification (CBFC) has said that initially the film was watched by six members where three rejected the film and three deemed it fit for screening. Upon not reaching a majority decision the film was presented before the full board of CBFC which comprises of all nine members of CBFC. The full board raised objections on many scenes of the film and in any such case the film is referred to the National Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage.
As per Mobashar Hassan the film has some derogatory remarks about the founding father of Pakistan Quaide Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah as well as few objectionable references towards Pakistan.
So now the decision of screening of this film lies with the Federal Ministry of Information. Last month another Bollywood film Dishoom also faced the similar fate.
As per BBC Urdu, Happy Bhaag Jaye Gi is the story of a run away bride of Indian citizenship who runs away at the night of her wedding and hides herself in a truck. The truck crosses the border and comes to Pakistan and thus the bride also arrives accidentally in Pakistan.
Pakistani artists Javed Sheikh and Moomal Sheikh have also worked in this film.
The promotion of the film was in full swing where the distributor IMGC has advertised the release of the film in all the leading Urdu and English daily. However the poster of this film published in the papers has no image of either Moomal Sheikh or Javed Sheikh.

The ‘Bay’ Syndrome; a syndrome which compels its victims to imagine & pen down such characters that embody all the characteristics that begin with ‘bay’, examples include ‘bay’ghairat, ‘bay’sharam, ‘bay’shaoor, ‘bay’haya, ‘bay’tukkay, ‘bay’charay so on & so forth.
Surprise surprise, I am writing about the latest trends that our writers have started & the bandwagon of writing the ‘bay’ghairati filled dramas that our writers have hopped on & for that reason, I most certainly believe that most of our writers are down with ‘the ‘bay’ syndrome’ because other than that, there’s no justification to the idiocy that our writers are churning out, one after another. Gone are the days when our writers used to feel the pressure & found it as their moral & ethical duty to pen down such scripts that had some purpose. Gone are the days when our writers used to write such stories that actually contained a message that they felt that needed to be conveyed. Gone are the days when the writers took their job seriously & actually considered what the viewers would want to see & gone are the days when the definition of entertainment was entirely different & definitely better!
These days, it seems like our writers have gotten a wrong idea of what qualifies as an entertainment. Ages ago our writers stopped experimenting with different genres & shoved saas bahu sagas down our throats time & again. It was so obvious that our writers clearly ran out of ideas so they gave a different spin to the stories of domestic issues which were more or less the same. The masses still showed acceptance towards such dramas because they had no other option than to tune to what was being shown but seems like the writers stopped taking their work seriously & came up with a hideous idea of twisting the logic & concepts of Divorce & when they felt that this idea was getting old & rusty, they took their fixation a step further & started exploring (read exploiting) the concept of Halala too!
A few years ago, channels like HUM TV & ARY Digital actually brought back people to Pakistani dramas & made them forget the never-ending hideous dramas of Star Plus which had everything except good stories. We Pakistanis, used to take pride in our Pakistani dramas because we knew that our dramas were completely different & had a meaning but sadly, that is not the case anymore. From the last 3 – 4 years, the quality of our dramas has only deteriorated because it is so obvious that all the toms, dicks & harry’s think they can become a writer & they end up writing down the most idiotic scripts that leave the viewers baffled & furious at their audacity for coming up with such level of ‘bay’ghairti.
There was a time when all our writers were fixated with the sister rivalry & we got so many photocopies of same idea as the writers thought that this is what was going to sell their scripts. After that came a trend in our dramas where everyone got married to the one they were not in love with & planned on eloping with their beloved from the past. Then came a trend of such dramas where each & every female lead was being accused of infidelity. Then came the most amazing trend of ‘dusri biwi’ which some writers once again took a notch higher & threw in 3 – 4 biwis too. I am talking about these trends because they show the lack of creativity that our writers suffer from, where they take it as their duty to follow the lead of those dramas that might do a good job rating wise & this is the reason why we see so many copies of one idea for a certain amount of time.
I am sure by now you guys must’ve understood where I am going with this. Yes, I am talking about the trend that has compelled the writers to play with the concepts of Divorces & Halalas because of which we are seeing so many photocopies of this sickening idea & honestly speaking, I am actually unable to figure out what makes these so-called writers think they can write such pathetic scripts & get away with it? Are they so rating-hungry that they find it totally cool to play with such concepts so brutally? Since our writers have even taught the kids about what divorce is, I am sure when asked, the kids will also say that a divorce means no turning back but here we are, getting to see such dramas where divorce is treated as a cancelled meeting where the involved party tries to arrange a meeting again while completely forgetting about what had transpired between them already. These days in our dramas written by the writers that are down with the ‘bay’ syndrome, we are shown that after getting divorced, the wife tries to go back to her husband citing kids as an excuse conveniently. If the ‘bay’ syndrome writers actually think that their miserable couple can still do well together then why do they shove in the phase of divorce? Only because that’s the easiest way to earn ratings? In stead of exploring the opportunities of how they can show divorce & reconciliation in different lights, why don’t these bay syndrome victims try to explore their heads & see if they have a thing called ‘brain’ inside it or not & if by chance or by luck, they do spot a thing called ‘brain’ then how about putting it to good use because everything is there for a reason so why not use it & see how they go? There was a time when our writers used divorce as a last stage & also as a sign of freedom which put the kibosh on the misery of the couple involved but these days, seems like even divorce doesn’t put an end to the misery & the ex husband & wife still find it in their hearts to get back together, thinking everything will be alright while completely forgetting about the fact that they are divorced!?!?!?!
Mann Mayal; as declared by its creative team, #lovestoryof2016, #bestdramaever – also showed that ‘bay’shaoor & ‘bay’chari Mannu, even after getting divorced was ready to go back to ‘bay’ghairat Mikaeel & even he was thinking of taking her back saying everything will be alright & their cupid Mr. Sallahuddin told his mother that this is a ‘new zamana’ & things like these happen or rather, casual & temporary divorces like these happen so she should just chillax & that is why in the latest episode he was wondering if he could settle a divorced couple abroad for the sake of their kids? How amusing, right!
Even though I haven’t watched Pakeeza but a commenter told me that even after getting divorced, ‘bay’sharam Pakeeza lives with her ex-husband only for the sake of her daughter. I didn’t watch this drama but I did see the promos when it was about to go on-air, where the writer; Bushra Ansari requested people to feel Pakeeza’s journey & relate to it, well sorry writer sahiba, I can not relate to such a story which makes no sense to begin with? Things like these can be expected from Samira Fazal as #naamhikaafihai but I actually believed that Bushra Ansari; being such a seasoned actor with so much of experience knew better & could definitely do better, but sigh!!!
Then we have the most unique writer of recent times; Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, who actually twisted the concept of Halala so badly that my head hurts the moment I think about it. This drama showed that a ‘bay’ghairat girl got divorced because she was in a mood for a new adventure & when she got bored of it, she wanted to get back to her ex-husband so bad that these days she’s on a hunt for some ‘bay’ghairat who’ll become her temporary husband. Can someone please tell Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, that a marriage done with the intention of getting divorced is not valid in the first place, so why did he put so much of pressure on his ‘brain’ & come up with this script & not only that, wasn’t there even a single person in the entire creative unit who could’ve told him ke Uncle jee appse blunder ho gaya hai & this story can not be dramatized as it doesn’t make sense & doesn’t do justice to the concept of Halala actually?
Our writers need to understand that they have a responsibility & they have a duty towards those who tune to their dramas, that is why they just can not show something that happens to be their fantasy as it affects the mentality of others & reaches out to so many people out there. In the recent times, every time I have watched these dramas, I have felt that these writers need to enroll in the schools again & they need to pay attention to their Islamiyat classes because these are the concepts that are taught at a school level but seems like these writers were the famous bunkers of their times & they bunked most of their Islamiyat classes because if they had attended at least 2 – 3 of those lectures, they would’ve known better & they would’ve understood that they are psychotically twisting such basic concepts which serves no purpose at all.
The way these ‘bay’ syndrome victims are twisting the basic & straight forward concepts of divorce & halala is quite alarming. I actually feel infuriated to see that how easily these unqualified individuals believe themselves to be the writers & not only that, they take pride & joy in their writings which actually look like papers that were puked upon & deserved getting dumped into the dustbin but made it to the hands of the producers & they decided to produce it because of being money & rating mongers.
Being a fan & an avid viewer of Pakistani Dramas, I still have hope because in such dark times we still are getting dramas like Diyar-e-Dil, Besharam, Dil Lagi & Udaari, which have nothing to do with divorces still they keep the interest of the viewers alive & are being spoken about for all the right reasons. I hope that these ‘bay’ syndrome victims take inspiration from these drama-writers & come up with something better that has nothing to do with divorces & halalas. Also, I wish the producers curb their hunger for ratings & money & expand their vision to be able to see that those dramas who had nothing to do with divorces & halalas did good in terms of ratings too. I wish to see a better quality dramas with amazing scripts & an actual quotient of entertainment because what we see these days in the name of entertainment is everything but that. It is actually quite sad to see that the channel heads have become so commercialized that for the sake of their commercialism, they are taking such scripts that actually have quite a questionable content that doesn’t really sync with our religious & cultural values. Please share your thoughts about the writers that are suffering from the ‘bay’ syndrome & do let us know if you wish to see these victims getting treated professionally.

Hareem Farooq looked really stunning at the official promotion of the movie Janaan.
The famous vocalist of numerous popular numbers, “Baandeya,” “Thora sa pyaar” from the movie Bol now has sold her another beautiful song “jeeney dey mujhey” to the movie Pink.
In a statement Fiaza shared that the producer of the movie Pink Ronie Lehri even contacted her before for her song “Meri Zindagi” in 2012 but things did not work.
But this time Faiza has really liked the story of the film Pink as it revolves around women and she found this the right time to sell her track for the appropriate film.
Fiaza herself is a ver impactful singer , lets see how the song looks in the Amitabh’s film.
Minal and Aiman Khan have gone to Thailand for vacations with their family. Here are the fun- filled pictures for there fans. (Sildenafil)
Have fun gals.
As the electronic media has made a world very small place and our stars are not only famous in home country but are very well-known across the borders. The India Vogue came to Pakistan to shoot our handsome guy and the gorgeous gals.
Have a look at the pictures.
Mohabbat taweez mein nahin hota, insaan Ki rooh mein hoti hai…
The contrast between Kulchu’s family and Billu’s family is evident by their approach towards life. Billu’s mother, Meher Nigar is a realist who turns to her Rabb for her needs whereas Kulchu’s mother, Tahira relies on the prophecies of her revered Peer.
Murshid ka hukum toh Tum logon ke liye imaan Ki tarhan hota hai… Ibaadat Ki tarhan baja latey ho ussey …
Bibi Sahiba knows how heavily influenced Kulchu’s family is and uses it to her advantage. She convinces Habibullah to steer Kulchu’s family toward accepting Bilal. Meher Nigar wanted Bilal to leave because she fears her son will become a peer worshipping zombie and her worst fears are realized when Haroon informs her that Peer Sahab wants to meet Bilal. Even though Habibullah wants to stay away from their personal affair, Bibi Sahiba has taken it upon herself to ensure their union.
Mera toh iteqaad hi nahin hain inn taweezon pe jo rishtey torh Taho… Khuda Ka Kalaam insaano ko jorhney ke liye bana hai, tornay ke liye nahin… Yeh taweez nahin mafakat-e-Amal hai…
We finally got to know the reason behind the feud between Tahira and Meher Nigar. Siraaj, Billu’s father was the bone of contention between these two. Once upon a time, Tahira was in love with Siraaj and when he didn’t reciprocate, she tried multiple taweez to lure him. Uska baap Phir Bhi taweez baat Ta tha- kabhi mohabbat ke aur kabhi nafrat Kay aur Tumhari maa jholiyaan bhar bhar ke lati thi… . . Meher Nigar developed an intense hatred for peers seeing how they misuse their status and play with the lives of people. Despite her hardships, she never faltered from her faith in the Almighty. Tahira gets violent and attacks Kulchu and threatens to do far worse and when all else fails, she goes to Meher Nigar to seek forgiveness.Tum jaison ke iteqaad ne un hey khudai Ki ghalat fehmi mein mubtila kardi ya hai…
Taana toh laalchi aur kameeney logon ko diya jaata hai- tumney toh qurbaani di hai, merey liye, iss gaddi ke liye. Hum dono ke baap dada Ki qabron ke liye...
Habibullah and Bibi Sahiba had an arranged marriage to secure family ties and retain control of their legacy. Habibullah loved someone else but had to succumb to family pressure as did Bibi Sahiba. I felt she not only enjoys controlling him but mocking him too. Is this all a game for her? Does she hope to gain some sense of inner satisfaction by seeing Kulchu and Billo happy? Or does she have something else in mind?
Dumpukht is turning into a gripping serial and I’m loving the unpredictability. Every episode reveals a little bit more about the characters and entices me towards the next one. Thought/ Comments/ Emotional Outbursts?
Kanwal Murtaza
Eloquent dialogues and beautiful visuals are the two main strengths of this drama. Lack of character development however is its biggest weakness. When Elma slapped Arif it gave hope that this was going to be the change which most of the viewers had been waiting for but things went back to the way they have been ever since Elma stepped into that house. As a result Sharafat begum refused to keep Neha in her house and that is how Neha ended up living with Ramish. Sharafat begum’s tolerance for Arif’s behaviour highlighted her double standards once again. Zarbab continued comparing his wife to other women and his mother made matters worse by repeatedly telling him that Elma was not good enough. The only reason I continue to watch this drama and like reviewing it is that although the story is done-to-death but everything has been shown logically.
Ramish’s character stands out in this drama because he is the only one who truly believes in something, has certain principles and even with no change in his character he continues to be a likeable personality. Unlike some of the previous episodes Imran Abbas gave brilliant performance in these two episodes. I actually found it funny when Neha mentioned Elma api on the breakfast table; she is someone who always gets into trouble because she does not think before saying something! Sunbal’s conversation with Ramish in which she told him that she never thought she would be willing to marry someone who loved someone else was a good addition because usually when girls are shown in such situations in our dramas they lose their self-respect completely and forget the difference between right and wrong.
Zarbab thinks he is justified in having a girlfriend because his wife is not good enough and Sharafat begum thinks Elma is responsible for all the ‘nahusat’ in her house. Now that Zarbab has lost his job and Elma is in the hospital Sharaft begum will be dependent on Arif completely which will serve as a reality check. Rania made it clear that she was not going to entertain Arif’s family members before she got married to Arif and in the latest episode once again she told Sharafat begum on her face that they had everything except time for her! Very soon Sharafat begum will realize that Elma was the only person in this family who looked after her even though she never gave her any respect or love. I truly felt for Elma in this episode mainly because of the way Ayeza Khan portrayed her character on screen.
I would love to see Zarbab getting married to Javeria! That way not only he will suffer but also Sharafat begum. The best part of the preview of the next episode was watching Sunbal break off the engagement. She has broken off the engagement before too but I really hope this time she walks away for good. A girl like her shouldn’t settle for someone who does not want her in his life. Hira Tareen has a very cute face and she acts well too but the character she is playing doesn’t have much to offer.
Yasir Nawaz has put in all his effort in making sure that this drama is a visual treat. Did anyone notice the wall in the background when Zarbab picked Javeria in tonight’s episode? The pace of the drama has slowed down and it would be good if they wrap things up in the next 3 episodes. We have yet to see the downfall of Sharafat begum and Zarbab has to pay for the way he treated his wife. Will there be a happy ending for Elma?? Right now it seems unlikely.
How many of you watched this latest episode? Do share your thoughts about it.
The preview of this episode which was shown repeatedly on HUM all week pretty much summed up what was going to happen in this episode and some of the promos also revealed rest of the story therefore I must confess that I wasn’t very excited about watching this episode. However, the little surprises which this episode had in store for the viewers turned out to be the reason why this episode was overall an interesting one. The secret that was revealed in this episode was the centre of attention right from the beginning. Although so far the story doesn’t seem brand new but there are some aspects of this drama which should be appreciated.
The subtle way in which different scenes have been directed has to be the best part of this drama so far. Haider and Shah Sahab’s conversation (which could have turned into a confrontation) was the highlight of this episode because it was not over-dramatic but it had an impact. Also, Shehla shared her feelings with her father when he talked to her about the proposal instead of giving in instantly. I mentioned this in the review of the previous episode and I feel the need to say it again; I appreciate the fact that everyone in this family can communicate with each other without shouting or going overboard. Showing these characters think about what was happening around them also helped understand what was going on in their minds. Shah Sahab loves Shehla like his own daughter but she is not a Syed Zadi therefore he cannot ‘betray’ his dead brother by marrying Haider with someone who is out of cast. This is the main reason why this marriage can never take place. The fact that this is not an easy decision to make even for someone like Shah Sahab was highlighted repeatedly. The scene in which he goes to reassure Shehla after she finds out she is adopted was very touching. Bibi Jaan and Shah Sahab both put what they should do before what they would rather do. Bibi Jaan’s approach is more matter of fact than Shah Sahab’s. This is definitely one drama in which emotions take a back seat!
Mansoor (Emaad Irfani) was most surely interested in this marriage only because of the political and financial support he will get in return which goes to show that he puts his career before anything else. It isn’t only Shehla who is going to be forced into getting married to Mansoor but he too isn’t taking this new relationship very seriously. The actress playing Tahira failed to impress in her brief appearance.
Naveen Waqar was fantastic as the vibrant girl who was very sure that this marriage will eventually take place in the first episode. In this episode however there were times when it seemed like she was trying too hard. Overall, her acting was convincing enough but in some scenes it definitely wasn’t up to the mark. Ahsan Khan’s acting was brilliant throughout this episode as well. Jamal Shah is a natural actor who was a good choice for playing this role. The ‘happy days’ are clearly over because this episode was filled with reality checks which will change the way Haider and Shehla look at things forever. The happy family which was introduced in the first episode has a lot of secrets which once revealed were not taken well by the members involved for obvious reasons.
This episode was directed brilliantly and the script so far is on point although it doesn’t offer anything new. The preview of the next episode suggested that the conversation Shehla had with her father did not have the effect it should have had and quite naturally she feels like she does not belong in that house therefore she goes somewhere.

Ohkay so, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this week’s episode of Dhaani. I really like the comic factor that this drama has & also the way the situations keep on changing one after another. I must say I love the way all the characters have been written because they all have a personality of their own, which is really nice to see.
So, Rehan feels burdened by the responsibility that Riyasat has allotted to him & more than that, Rehan & his entire family knows the reason why Riyasat is being so generous & kind to them, that is because he wants to see Maya becoming a part of their family as being a father, he knows that his daughter actually really likes Sameer. Rehan knows that the moment he will step into politics, he will be needing the support & expertise of his people, that is why Tanveer suggested that Rehan should tag Sameer along because he is a fresh graduate & the time is right for him to step into practical life. Rehan has allowed Sameer to have a time of his life but even he feels that Tanveer is right & now it’s high time for Sameer to become a bit serious about his career & future. Sameer agreed to what his family suggested but he did feel a little pressurized as even he could feel that his family was paying a bit too much heed to his & Maya’s relationship, which for him is just a friendship & nothing more than that. Maya obviously is in love with Sameer & she has clearly spoken about her feelings but Sameer has never once reciprocated in a similar tone as he doesn’t see Maya that way, which makes it clear that Sameer is not into this relationship as much as Maya is.
As much as I enjoyed Dhaani & Shaani’s scenes, I actually really felt bad for Bee Jee & I felt the most for the fact that her nieces were exploiting her innocence. Bee Jee trusts Dhaani & Shaani a lot & she is so simple-minded & kind-hearted that both these partners in crime know the tact of using her innocence to their benefit & every single time she falls prey to their traps. Even though I really like both these girls but I wish at least Shaani was mature enough to stop her sister from doing something that can put the entire family in jeopardy as it would’ve made much sense if at least one of them cared about her father’s morals & principles. I love watching Bee Jee’s scenes, it’s like she adds such warmth to the entire situation & as much as I love seeing her, I hate how easily she gets fooled by Dhaani & Shaani. Bee Jee is like a mother to Dhaani & Shaani & I wish to see them not taking her for granted at least once.
Dhaani wanted to fulfill the promise she made to Sameer, that is why she tagged Shaani & Bee Jee along but the reason why Sameer showed up is something that Dhaani can’t even imagine. For Dhaani it was just a meeting that she arranged to get Sameer off her back but Sameer turned it into an opportunity to form a relationship with her as he is clearly attracted to Dhaani & more than that, he is fascinated by the idea that how can a simple girl from such a humble background can be so gutsy yet can be so clear-headed to not fall for him so easily. Even Sameer’s friend felt that he was only trying to form a relationship with Dhaani because his ego was hurt that a girl like her is not into him. I really wish that Sameer is not just playing around & he plans on taking Dhaani seriously. Also, I wish that before Dhaani does something stupid, she thinks things through & figures out in her mind if Sameer’s the guy she wants to be associated with because she clearly has seen his unsober side, so she shouldn’t just curb it & ignore it as if that side of Sameer doesn’t exist because that’s a fact & a reality about him that she is not oblivious of.
Sameer wants to know Dhaani better, that is why without even thinking for a second, he handed over his cellphone to her & I am sure no matter what Dhaani will say, Sameer won’t stop pestering her as he can’t stop thinking about her. Dhaani’s personality is admirable & she is adorable, that is why it is imperative for any guy to fall for her, but I just wish that his intentions are right. So far, Dhaani has succeeded in keeping Sameer’s mobile phone hidden but I can’t even begin to imagine what sort of hell would break loose in their household if Kaleem or Raja will find out about it. I had such a great laugh at the note at which the episode ended. The thing that Raja dreaded the most was about to happen & Dolly along with her Halwai father finally decided to show up at his place for the proposal. I can’t wait to see what will happen & what decision Kaleem will take regarding Raja & Dolly’s future. ;)
Overall, this episode was great & I enjoyed watching it a lot. I love Madiha Imam’s acting & feel that she shares a nice chemistry with Sami Khan. I love the way the episode was directed, all the scenes were to the point & all the situations seemed correlated. For me the star of this episode was Bee Jee for sure, she is such a lovely motherly character that you just can’t stop loving her. I appreciate her character & presence in this drama a lot. I actually liked the usage of the OST in this episode in particular, the instrumental was nice too & it complimented the scenes of Dhaani & Sameer a lot. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us in the episodes that are yet to come. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Dhaani.
