Pakistan has been grappling with problems with law and order and particularly with violence against women. We have been seeing all forms of violence being committed across all strata of society and then perpetrators going unpunished. Recent example is of Noor Mukadam’s horrific murder in Islamabad and even after such uproar, the criminal Zahir Jaffer is still not punished. We Pakistanis raise slogans and hashtags of Justice For Someone every other month and things never change. The latest victim is Sara Shahnawaz who was brutally murdered by her husband in Islamabad.
Sara Shahnawaz is a Canadian national. She met her husband through social media and they both got married just three months ago. Her husband is the son of famous journalist Ayaz Amir. She had just come back from abroad when her husband killed her by hitting her with gym dumbbells. Shahnawaz has been arrested by the police.
The whole nation is once again demanding justice for Sarah and celebrities are not behind either. All of them demanded justice for Sarah while raising the concerns over Zahir Jaffer still not getting the deserved punishments. Here is what they had to see:
Abrar ul Haq is one multitalented man. Coming from a family of educators and army officers, he went on to study geography as well as law. Abrar also was a professor of geography in the prestigious Aitchison College in Lahore. That is when he started to write his songs and his Billo De Ghar blew up to become a sensation. He has since then given us countless hits and he is definitely the Bhangra king of Pakistan.
One of the biggest songs by Abrar ul Haq is Nach Punjaban. You can never have a Punjabi wedding without it such is the impact of Nach Punjaban. But Bollywood did what Bollywood does. Karan Johar’s production house stole the song and used it in their film Jug Jug Jeyo and Abrar ul Haq gave a statement that he has not given the rights for that song to them.
While in an interview on G Sarkar, he has given an update about the controversy. He revealed that he has filed a case against them in UK, another case against them has also been filed in Pakistan and now he is preparing to challenge them in India.

The multitalented and accomplished Pakistani actress Sarwat Gillani recently appeared in an interview with “Gloss ETC By Maliha Rehman”.
Sarwat Gillani while talking about the cosmetic side of her life, mentioned that “Fahad once said me that I thought you will come to me for any cosmetic surgery because you don’t have a good routine but you’re actually going in reverse. I’m not the one who take cares of herself all the time but now I’ve started drinking water and using sunscreen but it’s all because of my genes that I’ve a good skin till now despite having a bad routine.”
“I’m really very sacred of needles so I avoid such treatments. I fell on my face when I was in college and I broke my nose. I had my nose surgery done long time ago but still a lot of people think that it was a cosmetic surgery. Yes but I got to Fahad every now and then for the treatment of the lines on my forehead but still I say Fahad that you’re lucky that I’m not into such things”, added Sarwat.
Sarwat Gillani is a super talented and versatile Pakistani actress and model who has contributed a lot towards Pakistan’s showbiz industry. The actress was recently spotted in an interview with “Gloss ETC By Maliha Rehman”.
Sarwat Gillani while talking about the criticism she faced on her wardrobe choice at Cannes Film Festival, mentioned that “It’s about general mindset. Pakistan’s mindset is all about leg pulling. Pakistani’s are famous for leg pulling and it’s a rare chance that they praise or appreciate anyone. It will take a long time to change the Pakistani mindset.”
“However, across the border the nation praises them for whatever they have done because they have nationalism and it has taken them a while to get there. We don’t have nationalism at all”, added Sarwat.
Sarwat further said that “Our designer needs big names of industry who can wore their branded outfits and if they are not famous enough they won’t trust them for their brand which is an unfortunate bit. None of the designer was ready to design the outfits for the entire team as they thought that it’s not a big event. It would have been non-dramatic if there wouldn’t have been any criticism, so it was nothing to worry about. Even our friends criticized but it’s ok it’s their opinion. Once they reach their they can wear whatever they want to.”

Listen to Nabeel Zafar’s revelation about Chandi aka his daughter Fatima Nabeel:
Second marriage of a woman whether she is a divorcee or a widow is a huge topic in Pakistan. Despite being a country with 95% Muslim population, it a huge taboo in many households which is senseless. Consequently women avoid talking about the journey to finding love again but Shagufta Ejaz spoke up about it quite openly and did not hold back. She shared the hardships along the way, the concerns she had while making this decision and how her current husband came into her life.
Shagufta was a single mother with two daughters when her now husband Yahya Siddiqui came into her life. She said that they both liked each other and her daughters were also very comfortable around him but she still took two years to say yes to his proposal. Shagufta shared what doubts a person can have when getting into a marriage again. She added that her husband is older than her and there is a huge age gap which was also a concern for her whether they will always be compatible or not.
After two years of waiting, when Shagufta realized that she loves him and her daughters are also in love with him, she said yes. She also shared that he had grown up sons from a previous marriage and as he is a rich man, they were concerned that why a woman of such young age would say yes to their father if she is not interested in his money. So, they held a meeting with her and they all talked about their concerns. Things eventually settled and now she shares a beautiful relationship with them which has mutual respect ad understanding of each other.
Shagufta shares two daughters Nabiha and Iman with her husband but he is a father to all four girls. She also shared that when their daughter was born, her husband started a job again to support his little girls. He is a very experienced man as he has worked in Pakistan Customs as well as owned a production house where they had met for the first time, so he got offer for a consultancy which he took.
Love has no age and it surely comes in all shapes and sizes. Shagufta Ejaz’s story shows that but her journey to find her happiness also gives inspiration and insight to people going through similar experiences on how to be practical and wise about making a big decision again:

Anya while sharing the story of her marriage proposal, mentioned that “I knew him since a long time but I told Mama about him when his family wanted to come for the proposal. It was quite difficult for us to convince mama because she is very possessive about me. When it comes to me she analyses the person ten times more.”
“When I went to meet Anya’s mother for the first time, she rejected me. I had a proper rishta interview but I was so confused and unfortunately that interview led to rejection. Before that I already met Anya’s khala and she made sure that everyone will love me but I was very scared”, added Ali Hamza.
Anya further said that “After one week Mama said that I’m not satisfied with this proposal. I asked Mama to meet his family once as they were coming over our place from Islamabad.”
Shagufta Ejaz stated that “Me and my husband were on same page that they aren’t compatible but I had a thing in mind that Anya is very smart and intelligent and there will be surely a reason behind selecting him so I should better trust her choice. Later, the love and respect Ali Hamza’s family gave Anya and our family was just adorable. The way they asked for Anya’s proposal was priceless and within no time me and my husband agreed for Anya and Ali Hamza’s proposal with a whole heart.”

These two episodes of Habs proved that all my “reservations” regarding the drama were accurate, especially the one concerning the writer(s) of the drama. Since Habs’ script is a product of “teamwork”, it would be safe to say, at this point, that too many cooks spoil the broth. Ayesha’s character started going downhill the day she married Basit and all the decisions she took in these two episodes proved to be the final nail in the coffin. Ushna Shah made the character bearable but even with all her intellect, Ayesha took some of the most stupid decisions. After watching the latest episode, in particular, I was reminded of the drama serial Dillagi, the misunderstanding between Mohid and Anmol, and how it made everyone root for them more than ever before. The writer(s) definitely took some serious inspiration from there but they failed to execute the entire climax in a similar fashion. I have always felt that Basit and Ayesha’s track has been the weakest link. The sidetracks held my interest more right from the beginning but with this episode even Bano disappointed. These had to be the worst two episodes of Habs content and execution-wise. It is unfortunate that the producers ruin a perfectly put-together storyline by asking writers to stretch the stories and requesting them to “copy” ideas from other dramas!
The Misunderstanding
It is difficult to gauge what was more absurd about the latest developments, Ayesha and Fahad’s “friendship” or the fact that Ayesha and Fahad could not “guess” how this would impact Basit who already has serious trust issues. Basit has a lot of issues, the character is toxic in its own way but his toxicity makes sense. The writer(s) made sure that the viewers understand why Basit has all these issues but at the same time, they showed how he was willing to move forward. Also, the fact that there was a time when Basit trusted Fahad enough to have dinner with Ayesha and then drop her back in the middle of the night but now all of a sudden had lost all that trust was just nonsensical. Especially because now Basit was actively working on getting closure and was healing. All of this would have made some sense had it happened earlier on. Such misunderstandings are always in bad taste. They started with dramas such as Meri Zaat Zara e Benishan, Hamsafar, and the list is never-ending. Most of the time they are forced, even in the drama serial Hamsafar the “misunderstanding” was stretched beyond the limit. The viewers are sick and tired of watching such scenarios.
Zoya’s track was used desperately and unconvincingly to create this misunderstanding between Ayesha and Basit. It was understandable why Ayesha thought she could not tell Basit the truth but the way Ayesha lied to Basit about her whereabouts made no sense. She could easily have told him that she had gone to see her mother but she chose to lie. The Ayesha-Fahad meeting scene in last week’s episode was funny because Ayesha’s formal look at such a time was just as senseless as this entire track as a whole. This misunderstanding was forced into the story and I am still not certain why! If the writer(s) were hoping that the viewers would desperately wait for Basit and Ayesha to get back together then they were seriously mistaken. The drama could easily have ended by showing Basit falling in love with Ayesha, Bano, and Fahad getting married.
I found the dinner scene with Fahad and his mother hilarious. Fahad knew Basit was acting “strangely” and he could guess why but even then he continued to compliment Ayesha because obviously, his dil was squeaky clean. Common sense definitely left the room when this scene started. Later on, the poor guy was “shocked” at Basit’s behavior even though he knows about his friend’s state of mind better than anyone else. What Basit did was wrong, there’s no doubt about that but what Fahad and Ayesha did was just plain stupid.
The only good thing about these two episodes was Zoya’s track. I always felt that Aamir was taking Zoya for a ride but he definitely kept his end of the bargain. It was refreshing watching him stand by Zoya unlike before. Bobbi Phupo’s backstory was also revealed in these episodes but even after everything she said, Zoya’s mother was not too convinced. I also liked the way Bano was happy for her sister even though she misses having someone who will be by her side through thick and thin. I expected Bano to step in and explain the actual situation to Basit but the writer(s) clearly want to prolong the misunderstanding so that Bano and Fahad can bond while trying to resolve the issue.
Final Remarks
Habs has been an entertaining play with its highs and lows. The discrepancies and shortcomings in the script till now were easy to ignore but after this episode, it is really difficult for a viewer such as me, who looks for logic in the script to take Ayesha-Basit track seriously. The side tracks are definitely much more well-written than the main track. I just hope Bano’s track has a good, logical ending.
