Rehmat Ajmal is an emerging fashion and commercial model of Pakistan’s fashion industry. She has made a prominent place among the models of the industry. She is one of those few celebrities who have achieved tremendous fame in such a short time span. Rehmat Ajmal has worked with numerous western and eastern clothing brands. She is mostly seen in different collections of fashion designers and other clothing brands. She has also worked with cosmetic and other beauty brands appearing in some TVCs as well.
Rehmat Ajmal got engaged a few months back. She has recently tied the knot with Tayyab Saleem in an intimate wedding ceremony. The couple has also hosted a walima lunch, which was again a small intimate event, attended by close friends and family. Let’s check out some beautiful couple pictures from their Walima.
Right now there are some really interesting dramas on air on different channels. Most of these dramas wouldn’t have been as engaging as they are if the actors who play the leading and supporting roles were not translating their respective characters so impressively on screen. An actor’s performance can make or mar a character. Even the most well-written characters lose their appeal if they are not portrayed convincingly on screen. Only an actor who understands the character he is playing and puts his performance before everything else can do justice to a character. There are times when even the most simple supporting characters become easy to connect to when they are enacted on screen in the right manner. While playing a negative role, it is also really important for an actor to keep things real and not go overboard. An actor who manages to do that makes the viewers hate their character but the audience cannot help but praise the actor.
Here are some of the best performances by Pakistani actors from those dramas that are on air right now:
[lwptoc]
Sheheryar Munawar (Pehli Si Mohabbat)
Sheheryar Munawar is back with a bang! He is playing an intense and sometimes immature character in drama serial Pehli Si Mohabbat. We are pleasantly surprised by his powerful portrayal especially in scenes showing Aslam’s relentless love and his growing frustrations. This is the first time that Sheheryar Munawar’s performance is totally effortless which definitely adds appeal to a character that wouldn’t have been this powerful had it not been for his impactful portrayal. Feeling for Aslam comes naturally because of Sheheryar’s superb performance throughout.
Hassan Sheheryar Yasin (Pehli Si Mohabbat)
Hassan Sheheryar Yasin is a well-known fashion designer who made his acting debut on the small screen this year with the drama serial Pehli Si Mohabbat. His character is completely opposite to his real-life personality which is why we are even more pleased not only with his performance but also his selection. Hassan Sheheryar Yasin already has an impression on the viewers as a modern fashion designer therefore getting himself recognized in a role that is conservative and extreme is impressive. After watching his performance in Pehli Si Mohabbat, we are waiting to see more of him in dramas.
Rabia Butt (Pehli Si Mohabbat)
Rabia Butt stepped into acting only a few years back but every time she has left a good impression on the viewers. Her role in Pehli Si Mohabbat has so much to offer and she has done complete justice to it. She makes Nargis’ character stand out just the way it was meant to be. The persuasive manner in which she delivers the dialogues adds more meaning and intensity to these well-written scenes.
Uzma Hassan (Pehli Si Mohabbat)
Uzma Hassan is a phenomenal actress who makes sure that she highlights all the shades of the characters she plays perfectly on screen. Therefore, it is no surprise that she was chosen to play Zainab’s role, who is an important character in drama serial Pehli Si Mohabbat. Her convincing portrayal is the main reason why Zainab’s track truly stands out. She performs exceptionally well even in those scenes that require the use of body language and expressions alone to translate emotions on screen.
Saba Faisal (Pehli Si Mohabbat & Raqeeb Se)
Saba Faisal’s effective portrayals have won the viewers over many times. She always ensures that every character she plays stands out for its uniqueness. She has been part of many dramas lately but her performances in Pehli Si Mohabbat and Raqeeb Se truly stand out. Both these characters are completely different from one another yet Saba Qamar has breathed life into both of them. She is just as convincing in both the dramas and her definite screen presence makes her characters more appealing. She has proved that she is a versatile actress who makes her character more engaging by her realistic performances.
Furqan Qureshi (Raqs-e-Bismil & Aulaad)
Furqan Qureshi has to be the most underrated male actor in our industry right now. His unique style of acting coupled with how effectively he pays attention to minute details makes him one of the best actors in the industry. Yet, most often he is seen playing supporting roles in dramas. Right now in Raqs-e-Bismil and Aulaad he is giving the best performances of his career in roles that are poles apart. He always makes sure that the viewers are left guessing what his character’s next move will be. In Aulaad his character is grey and he is particularly impressive in it. In Raqs-e-Bismil he has translated the manipulative side of his character impressively on screen.
Mehmood Aslam (Raqs-e-Bismil)
Mehmood Aslam is rarely seen in dramas and most often the viewers associate him with the character that he is playing in the sitcom Bulbulay. In drama serial Raqs-e-Bismil he plays the role of a rigid and powerful peer who will do whatever it takes to ensure that the customs and traditions he has been holding on to are not compromised. Everything from his overall look to the body language is perfect in the drama. He has done a brilliant job of carving a new identity for himself on screen through this role and performance.
Momin Saqib (Raqs-e-Bismil)
Momin Saqib is another actor who truly outdid himself in a supporting role in Raqs-e-Bismil. Just like many other actors on the list, Momin Saqib’s off-screen personality is completely opposite to the role he is playing in the drama. Yet, he is highly convincing and endearing as the soft-spoken yet emotional young brother who looks up to his older brother. This relationship between Esa and Moosa wouldn’t have been so heart-warming had both these actors playing the role didn’t translate their character so flawlessly on screen.
Yumna Zaidi (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
Yumna Zaidi keeps on treating her fans to powerful performances every year. She translates the most difficult roles effortlessly on screen and never ceases to add the kind of intensity needed to make such roles memorable. She is playing one such character in drama serial Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi and she is simply outstanding in the role. Her portrayal is intense enough but never overdramatic which makes Sumbul’s character come alive on screen with its vulnerabilities and strengths standing out in every single scene.
Yasra Rizvi (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
Yasra Rizvi most often chooses projects that are challenging and she makes sure that the projects she works in are meaningful as well. Her role in Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi signifies how some girls in Savera’s situation resign to their fate. Yasra Rizvi’s performance is top-notch in the drama and she does exceptionally well while translating Savera’s soft and nurturing nature on screen.
Sammiya Mumtaz (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
Sammiya Mumtaz is another exceptional actress who makes the viewers feel for her characters irrespective of the role she is playing. She is playing an inspiring role in drama serial Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi of a mother who stands by her daughters’ side despite all odds. Her performance, as usual, is not only convincing but also endearing because she adds the right emotions to every single scene.
Isbah Irfan (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
We are truly impressed to see some of the young actors from the industry showcasing their brilliant acting skills in drama serial Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi. Isbah Irfan plays the role of Naseem Zahra in the drama; a young girl with big dreams. Isbah’s performance has been on point throughout which adds even more appeal to a character that has been written so well. Her performance has been effortless and convincing throughout.
Saadoon Ali (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
Saadoon Ali is another young actor who has completely won the viewers over with his perfect portrayal as young Jamshed. If it wasn’t for his phenomenal acting skills the viewers wouldn’t have been able to feel for this young boy the way they do now. Saadoon has also made the effort required to ensure that Jamshed’s innocence stands out since that is such an important part of the character.
Navid Shehzad (Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi)
Navid Shehzad has made an amazing comeback to television with a negative character. She plays the role of a wicked woman who runs a brothel. Although this character is negative but watching Surriya auntie’s antics is sometimes entertaining! Navid Shehzad has such a graceful personality yet her effortless portrayal makes her the perfect actor for this role. We are truly in awe of her outstanding acting skills.
Mohammad Ahmed (Aulaad)
Mohammmad Ahmed is not only a senior in terms of experience also in terms of his craft and range as an actor. At this stage of his career, he picks one character after another where he continues to outdo himself every single time. In drama serial Aulaad, it won’t be wrong to say that the soulful performance that he has done is what has made this drama worthwhile. To showcase the helplessness of a father who hits a rock bottom one after another is no easy feat but Mohammad Ahmed has succeeded in making it a performance to remember.
Qudsia Ali (Aulaad)
The fact that this happens to be a debut drama serial of Qudsia Ali goes to show that she has a bright future ahead of her. She is a measured performer because of which she has given such a brilliant treatment to the character of Mouni. It is only because of her performance and grip on the character that she has made it cute as well as very realistic. The innonence of Mouni along with all the emotions and feelings that she experiences within a few seconds was not easy to translate with such clarity and precision on screen, but the fact that Qudsia has made it happen definitely shows that she is a gifted actor.
Shehzad Sheikh (Phaans)
Shehzad Sheikh has caugth us off-guard with his performance in drama serial Phans. He has actred in numerous dramas and has also given some very convincing performances but Shehzad Sheikh was typecast and stayed well within his comfort zone, because of which he did more or less the similar characters. However, the promos made the viewers skeptical whether Shehzad Sheikh will be able to perform a character of such nature but with each passing episode, he continues to impress and has shown that he is no more afraid of challenging himself as an actor. Shehzad’s portrayal of Sahil in Phans is not only convincing but phenomenal and he deserves all the appreciation for it.
Hadiqa Kiyani (Raqeeb Se)
There was a lot of hype about the fact that Hadiqa Kiyani was making a debut with drama serial Raqeeb Se. So far into her career, everyone knew her as an ace singer but who would’ve thought that she was hiding this talent in her all along. The performance of Hadiqa Kiyani in Raqeeb Se has been mind-blowing and to see that she effortlessly matched the caliber and finnesse of her exeprienced co-stars like Noman Ejaz and Sania Saeed is an example in itself. Hadiya Kiyani has portrayed the character of Sakina with such finesse that it won’t be wrong to say, the drama audience would love to see more of her on screen.
Noman Ijaz (Raqeeb Se)
Noman Ijaz is an institute within himself, he is a true artist, therefore this kind of acting and portrayal was expected from him. The fact that even after so many years, Noman Ejaz’s association with any project guarantees that the viewers in for a treat speaks volumes of how much faith and trust the audience have in him. In drama serial Raqeeb Se, Noman Ijaz plays a central character but the way he has shown all the shades of Maqsood makes it an experience of itself to witness. The love that Maqsood has had for Sakina all these years has given him all sorts of pain, anguish, anger and numbness but now with her entry back in his life, he is already realizing that his love never changed for her and he still has that longing for her. To portray such intricate and complicated emotions with so much of clarity is only possible when it is an actor like Noman Ejaz playing the role.
Faryal Mehmood (Raqeeb Se)
Faryal Mehmood has been a part of the industry for a few years now. She has always stood out and earned appreciation for her performances but it won’t be wrong to say that her portrayal of Insha in drama serial Raqeeb Se is going to put her name on the map. It is a treat to see Faryal Mehmood just being herself and so effortlessly acting out the character of Insha who is strong, independent, level-headed but also has her emotional struggles, especially related to her father. Faryal Mehmood has done complete justice to this character and after this project, the audience are definitely going to be excited for her upcoming projects because they already know her caliber as an actor.
Imran Ashraf (Raqs-e-Bismil)
Imran Ashraf’s name always guarantees quality drama serial and entertainment. He is one of the biggest stars of Pakistani drama serials and has a range that is unmatched by anyone else in the industry. Imran Ashraf has that charm that he owns the characters like they were made for him and no one else could do justice to those characters that way he does. Moosa is another example of fine performance and acting skills of Imran Ashraf. He has performed this character with so much of heart and soul that every single viewer watching Raqs e Bismil feels his pain and has fallen in love with this character.
Ali Rehman (Safar Tamam Hua)
Ali Rehman has emerged as such a strong performer in last couple of years. He has become quite selective about his projects and makes sure to become a part of such dramas that give him a margin to perform. Ali Rehman is one of those few actors who are keen about the fact that none of their characters are similar. This is why after his strong portrayal as Ammar in drama serial Khaas, he is now seen playing a totally different characer in Safar Tamam Hua. Right from the beginning he has owned this character and the ease and effortlessness with which he delivers his dialogues and emotes makes Sami a very special character, someone you want to see and feel his pain. His performance in Safar Tamam Hua is one of the best of his career so far.
Madiha Imam (Safar Tamam Hua)
Madiha Imam has been a part of some of the superhit projects and it is always interesting to note that she makes sure that all of her characters are different from one another. She always picks up such characters that are realistic and relatable, also the kind of organic and raw treatment that she gives to her characters makes it a treat to watch her. In drama serial Safar Tamam Hua, the character of Anoushay has a lot of emotional baggage and despite putting up a brave face, she has her moments of anguish and despair where she feels hopeless and dejected. It is a fine balance where Madiha Imam has not turned the character of Anoushay into a bechari, rather she has made it very realistic and interesting to get to know her.
Syed Jibran (Safar Tamam Hua)
Syed Jibran is one of the highly experienced actors in the Pakistani drama industry right now. He has proved the kind of range he has as an actor. However it won’t be wrong to say that when he does negative roles, he gets to showcase his craft a lot more. In Safar Tamam Hua, the character of Jamal has a negative streak and the way Syed Jibran has underplayed it makes it a very interesting experience to watch this character. Although the drama is still in the inital stages, he has given enough reasons to prove that this is another best performance coming by him.
Affan Waheed (Shehnai)
Affan Waheed has more or less played similar kind of roles but in drama serial Shehnai, he is definitely experimenting and trying to show that he can also do such kind of characters which have layers and a comedy streak to them. The character of Meerab is faced with one challenging situation after another yet he is trying hard to find the solution to his problems. Affan Waheed has made the character of confused and kind-hearted Meerab look really cute. It sure is going to be a memorable performance by him.
Ramsha Khan (Shehnai)
Ramsha Khan is a fine actor and this is why the ease in the dialogue delivery comes naturaly to her. It is always interesting to see that no matter how challenging or complex the characters are, Ramsha Khan brings such effortlessness into her acting that you really find her characters closer to reality and relatable. In the drama serial Shehnai, her character is also going through a lot where she is being forced to marry, the anger, anguish, pain of heartbreak and hope of moving on, all these factors have been portrayed brillianlty by her, making it yet another brilliant performance by Ramsha Khan.
Sania Saeed (Raqeeb Se)
There is no denying the fact that Sania Saeed is one of the finest and senior most actresses of Pakistani dramas right now. She has so much of experience that she literally owns the characters that are asigned to her, therefore it goes the same for Hajra in Raqeeb Se. The flow there is to her performance in this drama is unparalleled, it is like watching a river of emotions flowing in front of you. There is so much that Hajra has to say but she can not and making that visually obvious for the viewers to decipher is not an easy feat but this is Sania Saeed at her finest for you.
Sana Javed (Dunk)
Sana Javed has started taking one challenging character after another and in every drama serial, she has paved her way to success. The same goes for her in Dunk where she has underplayed the character of Amal, not making it too obvious what is running through her mind yet letting everyone know the evil streak there is to her personality. Sana Javed’s performance is very convincing in drama serial Dunk and she has made this drama worthwhile.
Feroze Khan (Khuda Aur Mohabbat)
Feroze Khan had a huge responsibility on his shoulders because this was Khuda Aur Mohabbat, the previous seasons of which were already successful. Feroze Khan has definitely been the best part of this drama and his performance as Farhad is a memorable one. He has given the character of Farhad the perfect treatment it deserved and now with the story nearing the state of his hopelessness, the viewers are going to get mersmerized by his performance.
Saleem Mairaj (Shehnai)
Saleem Mairaj is another experienced actor of Pakistani drama industry. There is no character that Saleem Mairaj can not do justice to. After impressing the audience as Peer Matiullah in Kashf, Saleem Mairaj is seen as Qifayat in Shehnai and it is beyond impressive what he can do and how well he can perform when it comes to such varied characters. In Shehnai, he is seen as this conspiracist, someone who derives saddistic pleasures out of others’ misery and despite knowing that he is disliked by many, he continues to be the way he is. Qifayat is a very interesting cahracter but it is a done deal that if it wasn’t for Saleem Mairaj’s brilliant performance and convincing portrayal, this character wouldn’t have been so fun to watch.
This completes the list of the best performances that we are getting to see in Pakistani dramas that are currently on air. Which of these performances are you enjoying watching? Please feel free to add more names to the list.
Momina Iqbal is a Pakistani television actress. She is best known for her leading roles in Daal Chawal and drama serials like Parlour Wali Larki, Ishq Mein Kaafir, Ajnabi Lage Zindagi, and Ehd-e-Wafa and currently on air drama Khuda aur Mohabbat. Momina Iqbal has also been associated with fashion modeling for different brands and designers for quite a long time.
Momina has recently appeared in the show “Heart To-Haute”, which was streamed on the youtube channel “Something Haute”. Momina shared about the degrading behavior of some senior actors on set.
Momina said, ” Some of the seniors don’t even respond to our Salam just because we are in our struggling phase and we are not big names like Sajal Aly, Saba Qamar, and Mahira Khan.No one can disrespect them because the seniors have a realization that they have made a place in this industry after so much struggle but we are currently going through that time and anyone can say anything on our face and we have to tolerate and ignore a lot”.
She further said,” I was about to shoot a major scene for one of my dramas with a senior actor where he said ” Why did you cast her? Isn’t there anyone better than her? No, it’s okay I was Just saying.”. You can not believe how much difficult it gets after listening to such degrading comments. The junior artist always look up to their seniors for appreciation and just a little comment of appreciation made our day but such things make it even more difficult to shoot.

Tonight’s episode of Raqs-e-Bismil was powerful and well-paced. It had some of the most important developments so far. This episode was filled with revelations since so many secrets were revealed starting from the opening scene. With this episode, the story took yet another exciting turn with all the tracks moving forward. The conversations were well-written and executed. Zohra and Moosa’s meeting was definitely the highlight of this episode. Imran Ashraf’s performance continues to be the most appealing aspect of the drama; the show definitely belongs to Moosa! The confidence with which Imran Ashraf has translated different shades of Moosa’s character is truly impressive especially given the fact that the character doesn’t fit in the usual ‘hero’ category! He keeps on breaking stereotypes and never ceases to impress. The camerawork in some of the scenes tonight was also impressive as usual! Every scene added something to the story and that is what makes Raqs-e-Bismil such an interesting drama to watch. Zara Shaikh continues to be the weakest link even though her track has been penned down well, her performance has been shaky.
Moosa and Zohra
Tonight’s episode of Raqs-e-Bismil opened with Moosa rescuing Zohra, in the same manner, he rescued Sakina. The big difference here was that this time around he was face-to-face with someone high and mighty. That of course did not make a difference to Moosa who has nothing to lose and never really cared too much about consequences while following his impulses. This time around since he was defending Zohra, he did not need to think twice before acting on his impulses. This scene is definitely going to get popular since he has this particular way of ‘killing’ people, giving them to recite Kalma before dying! I find it very filmi and even amusing the way he feels he needs to kill everyone who puts their hands on his women while giving them a chance to recite Kalma! That hug and Zohra’s dialogues made it quite clear what was going on in her mind. When they met before Zohra did not apologize but this time around the situation was such that she ended up saying what was on her mind. Also, she had just realized that Shehryar would do anything at all to please Shehbaz and her integrity meant nothing to him. Therefore, she now valued Moosa more than ever now. This was how Moosa found out that Zohra was miserable and it would be interesting to see what he does next.
Everyone found out about Zohra’s past relationship with Moosa because of this opening scene and because of it Laila was more inquisitive than ever to find out who Moosa was. Esa’s timing, therefore, was perfect and it was through him that Laila found out the truth about Moosa’s identity. Back at home, Moosa’s father is clearly missing him and it seems as if at some point he might be more flexible! Esa cannot take up Moosa’s responsibility and his father is finding it difficult to manage things. Moosa hasn’t thought about his parents or family even once which is really odd since he loved his mother so much and was so close to Esa. Also, he shared a close bond with his father at one point too. He has lost so many people he loved yet he has not been even once shown thinking about them or missing them. Sarah Khan acted really well tonight which is why Moosa and Zohra’s scenes were a treat to watch.
Other Important Developments
Another important development in the story tonight was Shehryar’s family members pressurizing him to leave Zohra. This scene went to show that Shehryar’s family was not too proud of him and they were also rigid individuals who wanted him to do exactly what they wanted. He does not exercise the kind of control over his family which would be needed for him to continue doing what he wants. Also, Zohra’s mother’s story hinted that she might also meet the same fate. She will obviously be lucky if she gets divorced and that would also pave way for Zohra and Moosa’s union in the future. Laila’s husband is planning to get her killed again but at the same time Moosa is trying his best to find out who was behind the previous murder attempt. I can already see Moosa asking him to recite the Kalma next ;)
Final Remarks
Tonight’s episode of Raqs-e-Bismil was thoroughly entertaining. The preview of the next episode suggested that Moosa will be able to save Laila and her husband will probably be behind bars soon. I am waiting to see what turn Zohra’s track takes. I am eagerly looking forward to another exciting episode of Raqs-e-Bismil.

Adnan further added “This was also the time when I had no plans to join the television industry and was content with being a model. As part of the storyboard, I had also visited a girl’s college. Before my interaction with the students, the principal invited me to her office and quite sheepishly asked me to tell the students that I am engaged! Well, I followed through though I am not sure till date that it made any difference to them.”
“With this sepia leaf from my past, I want to juggle your grey cells a bit. Can you spot who is the doctor cum model cum actress in the ad?”, mentioned Adnan.

I had simple clothes made to match a dupatta my mother-in-law already had for me, did my own hair and makeup (so forgive any imperfections), and had one 15 minute meeting with @flowevents.pk where my only real instruction was ‘no gold sofa and just make it look pretty in the budget I have!’”

There is no denying the fact that the Pakistani drama industry is growing leaps and bounds. With every passing year, drama makers are continuing to bring quality entertainment to the audience’s way. In every season, the viewers get to see some of the best dramas that are not only engaging but are thoroughly meaningful. There are a lot of factors that contribute to making the drama successful. First and foremost, the script is the backbone of any drama, and then comes the production values, direction, and in the end, acting. It is always astonishing that at times, the simplest of dramas do well in terms of popularity because they click with the audience and the viewers watching those stories and characters resonate with them a lot. Another important factor that also at times works in the favor of a drama is the cast. If the casting is done right and the actor succeeds in conveying the essence of the character through his or her portrayal then it becomes engaging for the audience.
This season, Pakistani drama viewers are also getting to see some of the best dramas, that are not only entertaining and engaging but have a lot of meaning to them. In this list, we discuss those dramas that can be termed as quality entertainment and have all those factors that make a drama memorable and successful. The list is in alphabetical order:
Aulaad
Writer: Syed Ameer Ali Shah Director: Aabis Raza Producer: Big Bang Entertainment Channel: ARY Digital Schedule: Monday & Tuesday 8 pm Cast: Muhammad Ahmed, Marina Khan, Marina Khan, Sunita Marshal, Hasan Niazi, Furqan Qureshi, Nabeel Zuberi, Mahenur Haider, Minsa Malik, Hina Altaf, Qudsia Ali, Humaira Bano, and others.
There are only a few Pakistani dramas that do not rely on star power and narrate the story of older characters. Aulaad is one such drama that highlights how important it is for parents to be economically independent and not to rely entirely on their children. Also, Munni’s character translates the innocence and needs of a special child flawlessly on screen. There have definitely been instances when you feel that the parents would have been in a better situation at this point had they not given in completely when they were being pressurized by their children to meet their unreasonable demands. But then that is how the writer has conveyed a really important message which is hardly ever highlighted the way it has been in the drama serial Aulaad. Right from the beginning, the characterizations have been on point and the emotional element of the drama has always stood out. When this drama started many people thought that it was inspired by the Bollywood film Baghbaan and to a certain extent it is but unlike other dramas which took inspiration from Bollywood films, Aulaad has enough substance to keep you engaged and coming back for more.
Muhammad Ahmed is well-known for his apt portrayals. Ever since Durr-e-Shehwar went on air, he is hands down the most loved Pakistani actor from his age group. He makes you connect to the characters he plays instantly and even though in most dramas he plays supporting characters, he never goes unnoticed. Qudsia Ali has played Munni’s character so brilliantly that most of the viewers couldn’t help falling in love with her. Her impactful and effortless portrayal has always made her character stand out. All the other actors have done complete justice to their respective characters which definitely makes this drama worth watching. The director Aabis Raza has made sure that the essence of the story does not get lost in translation. Aulaad is an emotional ride with more sad moments than happy ones but it tells a story that should be told and heard! If you are missing out on this one, tune into it right now. We just hope that the drama ends at an appropriate time and is not stretched needlessly.
Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahin
Writer: Amna Mufti Director: Kashif Nisar Producer: Kashf Foundation Channel: PTV & TV One Schedule: Monday 8 pm Cast: Yumna Zaidi, Yasra Rizvi, Sammiya Mumtaz, Noman Ijaz, Navid Shahzad, Omair Rana, Wahaj Ali, Bonita Malik, Hina Altaf, Noor-ul-Hassan, Adnan Shah Tipu, Kashif Mehmood, and others.
Amna Mufti is a remarkable writer who makes sure that all her scripts provide much more than just entertainment. Many of her dramas highlighted issues that are most often brushed under the carpet since they do not bring in the ratings! Kashf Foundation definitely deserves credit here for investing in such projects. Kashif Nisar never shies away from directing such dramas and he always has a grip on every single aspect of the story. This drama, therefore, has a dream team of creative and intelligent people. Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahi effectively highlights issues such as human trafficking, child labor, exploitation of the poor, corruption, lack of empathy, and even animal rights. It gives a face to every child who is deprived of his or her rights since all these tracks start from the time when these children were not given their birthrights. Since they were born in families which were either poor or had fathers who did not prioritize their well-being. All the characters in the story have a journey, unique personalities and they represent a section of the society which has in some way either added to the problem or tried to break free from it. It isn’t easy penning down so many different tracks with such precision yet Amna Mufti succeeded in doing so.
The fact that this drama is not being aired on one of the leading channels definitely takes away an edge needed to guarantee viewership but even then it is being watched by many and is getting the appreciation it deserves. Dil Na Umeed Toh Nahin stars some of the most phenomenal actors of the industry which definitely adds to the overall appeal and feel of the drama. Yumna Zaidi has truly outdone herself in a role that is extremely challenging. Navid Shahzad also stands out in a negative role even though most often the viewers have seen her in a completely different avatar. Omair Rana, Yasra Rizvi, Kashif Mehmood, Sammiya Mumtaz, and all the child actors make their presence felt in all the scenes. Child stars Saadoon Ali and Bonita Malik have been truly exceptional in their respective roles as Jamshed and Allah Rakhi’s younger versions. Also, the director Kashif Nisar has not added a commercial element to this story at all which makes it even more impactful. This drama is not for the light-hearted since some of the episodes were quite disturbing but it is definitely not to be missed.
Khuda Aur Mohabbat
Writer: Hashim Nadeem Khan Director: Syed Wajahat Hussain Producer: 7th Sky Entertainment Channel: Geo TV Schedule: Every Friday at 8pm Cast: Feroze Khan, Iqra Aziz, Mirza Zain Baig, Waseem Abbas, Sunita Marshal, Javed Sheikh, Usman Peerzada, Rubina Ashraf, Hina Bayat Khan, Junaid Khan, Fariha Jabeen, Asma Abbas, and others.
It won’t be wrong to say that Khuda Aur Mohabbat happens to be one of the most popular dramas on air right now. The moment it started, the attention and popularity it got have been unparalleled. The fact that the audience had to wait for this drama has also played a lot to its hype and because the previous two seasons of Khuda Aur Mohabbat have done so well and have earned a place in the audience hearts, it also impacted the emotional pull the audience felt towards this project. Khuda Aur Mohabbat is all about the journey of self-discovery and the spiritual path that Farhad will embark on after his heartbreak. However, the writer has added a lot more layers to it and it is not just going to be about it. Farhad’s character has been quite special, because of which he impacts everyone he interacts with. Khuda Aur Mohabbat has offered the viewers everything they imagined to see in a Pakistani drama; from beautiful locations to larger-than-life execution, from high production value to such beautiful art direction that it captures your eye and holds your attention in every single scene.
Feroze Khan has definitely carried the drama on his shoulders and it is because of his performance, that Khuda Aur Mohabbat is what it is. Iqra Aziz and Feroze Khan’s pair was also fresh and although their love story has not really flourished as of now, it is also adding more to the drama-watching experience. The writer Hashim Nadeem has definitely tried to bring in those elements that are patent to the Khuda Aur Mohabbat experience, such as unrequited love, the train station, mysticism and spirituality, and the longing for love. Khuda Aur Mohabbat has become one of the top dramas of this year and for all the obvious reasons. Watching each and every episode of this drama is an experience in itself and the convincing performances of all the actors have added a lot more depth and meaning to the characters and their stories.
Pehli Si Mohabbat
Writer: Faiza Iftikhar Director: Anjum Shehzad Producer: IDream Entertainment Channel: ARY Digital Schedule: Saturday 8 pm Cast: Sheheryar Munawar, Maya Ali, Uzma Hassan, Hassan Sheheryar Yasin, Rabia Butt, Shabbir Jan, Saba Faisal, Paras Masroor, Nausheen Shah, and others.
Faiza Iftikhar is known for her meaningful scripts and plot twists that leave the viewers on the edge right till the end. She is also one of those few writers who can skillfully add social messages to an entertaining drama. Most of her love stories have been much more than just that therefore it does not come as a surprise that her latest drama Pehli Si Mohabbat is also not just another love story! The producers lured the viewers into watching the show by promoting Sheheryar and Maya’s on-screen couple which was already a hit among cinemagoers. This was the first time that these two stars were going to be seen together in a television drama. Both of them had also taken a long break from television therefore Pehli Si Mohabbat was also their comeback drama serial. The leading actors and the larger-than-life promos played a vital role in enticing the viewers but after a few weeks, it was the well-written and meaningful script that became the main attraction for the viewers. Pehli Si Mohabbat has some of the best supporting characters we have seen in dramas lately and it is a social drama that highlights the importance of consent in a manner that is anything but preachy. The effective and well-integrated screenplay keeps the viewers entertained and looking forward to more. Some of the scenes of this drama have been so intense that they truly leave a lasting impression. Even though the supporting characters are most often shown breaking the stereotypes, you can’t help rooting for Aslam and Rakhshi.
Sheheryar Munawar and Maya Ali have definitely succeeded in translating this young couple’s trials and tribulations effectively on screen. Hassan Sheheryar Yasin’s debut has been one of the best ones this year since he chose to play a role completely opposite to his off-screen persona. Rabia Butt, Uzma Hassan, and Saba Faisal’s performances make their tracks and stories easier to connect to. Pehli Si Mohabbat demands your undivided attention since there is always a surprise in store and you can never tell how one track will be linked to the other one as the story progresses. The drama definitely has a commercial element to it which at times takes away the originality needed to make certain scenes come alive on screen but overall Pehli Si Mohabbat has all the right ingredients in the right proportions and is an absolute must-watch!
Raqeeb Se
Writer: Bee Gul Director: Kashif Nisar Producer: MD Productions Channel: HUM TV Schedule: Wednesday 8 pm Cast: Sania Saeed, Hadiqa Kiyani, Noman Ijaz, Faryal Mehmood, Iqra Aziz, Saqib Sameer, Hassan Mir, Hamza Sohail, Salman Shahid and Saba Faisal
Writer Bee Gul is known for her unconventional storylines and characters that give even the most seasoned actors a new identity! Her style is always bold and unapologetic since she is not afraid of showing scenarios that most writers would not even think of penning down for a television audience. Kashif Nisar is known for his powerful directorial skills and together these two creative individuals are a force to reckon with! Raqeeb Se’s main plotline and its characters are highly unconventional and at times difficult to relate to because they are unlike any other we have seen on television. We have watched many love stories on television but not even one like this one! For a change, the women who are in love with the same man are not shown fighting with one another but that man becomes the reason why they ultimately bond. While Sakina’s open-hearted and caring nature can be difficult to connect to at times, those short but meaningful scenes showing how she feels as if she is the other woman when Maqsood treats Hajra a certain way, make her character human! Hajra’s character kept the viewers guessing for the longest time but gradually she has come into its own and together these women are the highlight of this drama! Two unusual characters who meet in the most bizarre circumstances end up giving each other the kind of acceptance which both of them never even got from their spouses!
All the tracks in Raqeeb Se are unique and they highlight the inner struggles of the three main leads, in particular, in a powerful manner. Probably for the first time in a Pakistani drama the female characters are so strong that the male characters have taken a backseat. Having said that, Noman Ijaz is beyond impressive as a man who keeps you guessing! Faryal Mehmood is also the star of the show and we are pretty sure there is more to her track. Iqra Aziz is the only actress who has been typecast and therefore does not stand out as much as the other actors. Hadiqa Kiyani’s outstanding debut performance has left the viewers in awe of her talent. The OST of the drama is just as soul-stirring as the content as a whole. Raqeeb Se might not be everyone’s cup of tea but we are pretty sure that there are so many viewers like us out there who are completely involved in this unusual love triangle and perhaps find it difficult to choose between Hajra and Sakina because the writer probably does not want them to choose! The well-written dialogues of the drama make every scene a treat to watch.
Raqs-e-Bismil
Writer: Hashim Nadeem Director: Wajahat Rauf Producer: Shazia Wajahat & MD productions Channel: HUM TV Schedule: Friday 8 pm Cast: Imran Ashraf, Sarah Khan, Mehmood Aslam, Nida Mumtaz, Momin Saqib, Furqan Qureshi, Anoushay Abbasi, Javeria Abbasi, Azeem Sajjad, Zara Sheikh, Gul-e-Rana, Saleem Mairaj, and others.
Hashim Nadeem is known for his powerful characters and settings which are always different from the ones we usually get to see in our dramas. His heroes in particular never cease to impress. Raqs-e-Bismil is a well-paced, well-written drama with some amazing performances. The main lead Moosa and his heart-wrenching journey has been the highlight of the show throughout. The story has been knitted together so well and it has been unpredictable throughout. The director Wajahat Rauf has given this script the perfect treatment and is definitely the one responsible for the pace of the drama since every scene in the drama so far has been short and to the point. Even though the OST is beautifully sung but it has never been overused. The director has throughout focused on the content and has made sure that the drama does not have any filler scenes. The script also questions preconceived notions and gives a new face to certain characters who are often stereotyped in dramas.
Raqs-e-Bismil has definitely proven to be another feather in Imran Ashraf’s cap since he has nailed an avatar that he has never been seen in before. Momin Saqib is another actor who stands out as Esa even though this character is quite unlike his actual personality. Mehmood Aslam and Furqan Qureshi also stand out in their respective roles. Raqs-e-Bismil’s cinematography and the way each scene has been captured make it a visual treat. We guarantee that once you start watching this drama, you will be forced to continue! Zohra and Sitara’s characters are perhaps the weakest element of the drama, other than that every character leaves an impact. An impactful leading lady would have made this drama even more powerful. Moosa is clearly the one running the show and the one who will keep you glued to your television screens.
Safar Tamam Hua
Writer: Rahat Jabeen Director: Shehrazade Sheikh Producer: Momina Duraid Productions Channel: Hum TV Schedule: Every Monday & Tuesday at 8pm Cast: Madiha Imam, Ali Rehman, Syed Jibran, Samina Ahmad, Maha Hassan, Yasir Waheed, Saife Hassan, and others.
Safar Tamam Hua is still in the initial stages but the introductory episodes have set the tone right from the beginning. This drama deals with complicated relationships and shows how a girl with vulnerabilities and complexes tackles what life throws at her. The writer has shown that despite the emotional baggage that Anoushay carries, she still puts up a brave face. She does get affected by the opinions of others therefore she confides in her cousin and love interest, Sami. Safar Tamam Hua has a very zen-like feel to it and although it deals with complicated and sensitive situations, it unfolds in an effortless manner. The director definitely has directed this drama with a vision where she has not made it heavy but has kept the tone mellow for every situation to make an impact. Another aspect that sets the execution of Safar Tamam Hua is the usage of background music, it is never over-powering and is used strategically to add more to the situation.
Safar Tamam Hua has also deals with the idea of how much sensitivity is required in dealing with people like Rija, where they must be loved like a child and dealt with utmost attention and care. Rija definitely has everyone around her concerned about herself but the beauty is that everyone accepts her the way she is and doesn’t believe in changing anything about her. Rija is loved and Maha Hassan has definitely given a convincing performance portraying such a difficult yet beautiful character. Madiha Imam, Ali Rehman, and Syed Jibran are right in their element and it is their powerful performances that make Safar Tamam Hua worth watching.
Shehnai
Writer: Radain Shah Director: Ahmed Bhatti Producer: iDream Entertainment Channel: ARY Digital Schedule: Every Thursday & Friday at 10pm Cast: Affan Waheed, Ramsha Khan, Maham Amir, Arsalan Faisal, Hammad Shoaib, Maryam Noor, Zainab Qayyum, Behroz Sabzwari, Javed Sheikh, Samina Ahmad, Umar Alam, Saleem Mairaj, Salma Hassan, Javeria Abbasi, and others.
Shehnai is the kind of drama that the Pakistani audience don’t get to see quite often. The genre of romantic comedy is pretty unexplored and this is why Shehnai stood out right from the beginning. It deals with how girls and even boys are pressurized into getting married and how, unfortunately, their feelings are invalidated because they feel they owe it to their parents. In this drama, both Bakht and Meerab are pretty much in the same boat but somehow they have joined hands to come out of this situation by helping each other. Drama serial Shehnai has the kind of dynamic that each and every regular drama viewer will be able to relate to because it shows the dynamic of a huge family and everything that comes as a part and parcel of it; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Shehnai is fun and chaotic, the fresh pair of Affan Waheed and Ramsha Khan is also a bonus. What is also quite interesting about Shehnai is that veteran actor Saleem Mairaj is seen in a completely different avatar and it is astonishing to see how good he is at comedy with his perfect timing and just the perfect treatment of the character.
Writer Radain Shah has definitely tried something new and it is always a good change when the writers not only experiment but turn it into light-hearted entertainment. Shehnai has a lot to offer but the way the writer has conceived the character of Meerab is the most endearing part of this project. It is definitely refreshing to see a man who is very much in touch with his emotions, who is not afraid to show his vulnerabilities, someone who thinks with his heart and is quite sensitive. Meerab is also the last person to judge someone, which makes him a very strong and interesting character. Shehnai has so many characters but the best part is, they all play a strong part in contributing to the story. Shehnai is definitely one of the must-watch dramas on-air right now because it is not only light-hearted and fun but is quite refreshing.
