He was seen as a child artist in many films like Hum hain Raahi Pyaar ke and Zakham. Kunal was in a live-in relationship with actress Soha Ali Khan since May 2013. The couple got engaged in July 2014 and got married in a private ceremony in Mumbai on 25 January 2015 in the presence of selected members of Soha’s family. They have a beautiful daughter Inaaya Khemu.

Solis Festival happened on 15th February 2020, but instead of enjoying it, people had to face injuries, harassment, and death. The festival was wasted by some people with fake entry tickets. Fake ticket holders overflowed the crowd that the VIP stage collapsed and fell. The audience was harassed, molested, and were scared to death. Many girls were sexually harassed.
People on social media protested against the organizers of the Solis festival. What was the fault of poor boys and girls who paid more than 10,000 to enjoy a musical night with their friends? Who is responsible for all the mess?
Angelina Malik shared a post of a girl who personally experienced everything at the festival. She is worried about the young youth who will run the country in the future. The government needs to take serious action against this so that nothing like this happens tomorrow. Angelina felt sorry for all the women who had to face everything.
Sajal Ali and Ahad Raza Mir are one of the most loved couples. The on-screen bond and real-life relationship leave all their fans in awe. How can they manage to look perfect all the time? The love and bond that they share is precious and can’t be expressed in words.
The Alif actor took to Instagram to share a beautiful picture with her fiance, Ahad Raza Mir. The picture was from behind the scenes of the most popular drama, Yeh Dil Mera. Sajal captioned her post ”Yeh Dil Mera” with a heart emoji for Ahad. Isn’t this cute?
Well, Mahira Khan and Mawra Hocane commented on the picture to show their love for both of them. MaSha’Allah, may Allah Almighty keep them away and protected from evil eyes. The couple has been the talk of the town ever since they got engaged, and now their fans are anxiously awaiting for their wedding.
One of the most-watched and loved shows of Hum TV, Ehd-e-Wafa, is on YouTube trending. The youth loves chemistry and bond that SSG shares. From all the fights and resolving personal issues, their friendship has grown stronger.
The drama shows four characters from different professional fields, an anchor, an assistant commissioner, a politician, and an army officer. Four pillars of Pakistan were displayed in the drama series.
A man name Muhammad Zeeshan filed a petition against the Ehd-e-Wafa. According to him, the drama portrays a negative image of politicians and media persons. He has requested the court to check the upcoming episodes of Ehd-e-Wafa, otherwise, this would paint a negative image of Pakistan on an international level.
Tonight’s episode of Ishqiya was slightly more entertaining than the last one. This episode had some important developments to its credit and it was yet again frustrating watching Hamna contemplate whether she should tell Hamza what was actually going on or not. She went ahead with the nikkah without informing Hamza. Although her confusion and fear both were translated convincingly on screen but even then her approach has been immature. I must say that Hania Aamir’s character and her performance is the main attraction of this drama right now. Hania Aamir is one of my favorite actresses who always brings out the best in every character she plays. Having said that, I really wish that she gets a better stylist and that the producers let the actresses with short hair flaunt their natural hair as opposed to forcing them to wear hair pieces. In every other drama the actresses are forced to wear either extensions or hair pieces because somehow it isn’t okay for the leading ladies to have short hair!
Even though some of the scenarios in this drama have done-to-death written all over them but there were also those elements of Hamna and Romaissa’s track which were quite likable. There were times when I wondered what would have happened had Hamna taken her sister or mother in to confidence. The writer has shown how a loving and caring father completely failed to let his daughter make one of the most important decisions of her life.
Hamza and Hamna
Hamza’s commitment towards Hamna seems quite genuine, something more than just crazy love but if you compare him with Azeem, Azeem definitely appears to be a more mature character. Hamza’s conversation with his father in the previous episode suggested that Hamna had never made a commitment with him therefore their relationship status is confusing. Hamna has definitely made quite a few decisions in this one week which show that she is not as certain and confident as her sister is. Hamna was shown crying and ignoring Hamza and she simply brushed this entire affair under the carpet even after the nikkah happened. Some of the flashback scenes were completely unnecessary and it would have been better if instead of showing these scenes, the writer would have given the viewers a more clear insight into what Hamna was thinking. Although she wanted to get married to Hamza but we still don’t know whether she loves Hamza as much as he loves her. While it was relatively easier for Hamza to tell his parents off, Hamna’s situation has been completely different. Feroze Khan’s entire outlook doesn’t go well with his character since Hamza has a more responsible and serious side as well but he looks like the reckless cool dude.
Family Dynamics
There were quite a few scenes tonight which showed why Hamna decided to do exactly what she was told and why she might have to put up with even more in the future. Romaissa took the medical file from her father but we still don’t know what his medical condition is. Romaissa’s character is a breath of fresh air and definitely different from the one she played in Anaa. Romaissa looks out for her parents and her sole aim in life is to see her father happy. Her relationship with her father in particular is both cute and endearing at the same time. Hania Aamir’s performance has been effortless and on point. She does not overdo the bubbly side of Romaissa’s personality and has made sure that the viewers can see the sensitive and caring side of her character. Shabbir Jan too has translated his character gracefully on screen. Even though he has made some decisions which were too hasty and perhaps not fair but even then you understand where he was coming from.
Azeem and Hamna
Azeem was properly introduced to the viewers tonight. The introduction he gave made me wonder why he mentioned the past. Can he sense that Hamna is hiding something or is there something that he is hiding from her? Or was it just something he said to make Hamna feel comfortable? Waiting to find out! Azeem sounded like someone whose world would revolve around his wife once he got married therefore it would be interesting to watch how this relationship grows. Hamna just sat there, lifeless and sad while Azeem tried to have a conversation with her. He likes Hamna and is looking forward to starting a new life with her but Hamna clearly is not ready for this fresh start, it is more like an ordeal for her. The preview of the next episode suggested that Azeem might find out the truth in the upcoming episode – I really hope that does not happen. Hamna’s situation is actually painful to watch especially because she hardly had any interaction with her friend in this one week. Gohar Rasheed is a brilliant actor, I am waiting to see what his character has in store for us.
Final Remarks
Ishqiya so far is a decent watch, it isn’t remarkable and it is not entirely run-of-the-mill either. The performances and the direction has been on point and even though the story is familiar, the writer has managed to avoid certain clichés. The preview of the next episode showed that Hamza will find out the truth and he will once again show his anger in front of everyone. Will Azeem witness all this? The preview suggested that Hamza will feel betrayed and rightly so too! I guess we all know where the story will go from here but it will be interesting to watch how it is taken forward.

It was given that when it came to her brother’s wedding, Maya had to shine and look beautiful, this is the reason her pictures have wowed all of her fans and she has carried a variety of looks on all the wedding functions of her brother Afnan and his bride Nosha Afnan.
Here are the dress and makeup details of Maya Ali from her brother’s wedding:
Pre Wedding Party Dress & Makeup
Maya Ali’s best friend and one of the leading fashion designers of Pakistan; Faiza Saqlain was the official dress designer of this wedding. All the dresses that Maya Ali has worn were designed beautifully by her. During the pre wedding party which was conducted at Maya’s home to get into the mood of the festivities, Maya kept her look comparatively simple yet elegant. She wore a gorgeous shade of navy blue. Her dress was a pleated long sleeveless shirt with a flared palazzo. The shirt had a detailing of golden embellishment on the neckline and also at the bottom of her palazzo. Maya’s dupatta was the star of this outfit. It was a beautiful rustic, almost a reminiscent of the olden era fashion. The dupatta had a timeless look to it and was gorgeously pattern with repetitive motif over all. It gelled well with the golden detailing on her shirt and palazzo. Maya accessorized herself with a set of golden bangles and small jhumkas. She also wore a pair of simple golden khussas. This entire look was simple and effortless but was enough to wow everyone. She wore her hair in their natural state and parted them differently throughout the night.
The makeup look of Maya was also simple, it was almost as if she did her makeup herself because she didn’t want to put too much effort into getting ready for this intimate homely event. She has a bit of shimmery eyeshadow on her lids, some bronzing on the hollows of her cheeks. She is wearing a nude brown lipstick and a lot of highlighter to achieve the glowy skin look.
The Qawwali Night Dress & Makeup
Designed by Faiza Saqlain, Maya picked gorgeous aubergine shaded dress for the Qawwali night. It was a heavily flared dress with puffy sleeves and pleats to it. It was again a simple and effortless look that Maya opted for the night. The silhouette of this dress was such that it accentuated Maya’s petite waistline beautifully and sat perfectly on her shoulders. The entire dress was simple but the sleeves had a bit of embellishment and design. Maya draped the dupatta around her arms and it also had a golden lace to it which tied well with the golden pattern on the sleeves. This look of Maya can be termed as effortless and classic. She wore a gorgeous pair of jhumkis and basic strappy heels to complete the look.
Maya kept her makeup simple at the Qawwali night. She focused on keeping her skin fresh and vibrant, wore some eyeliner and kajal to accentuate her eyes. Some blush and nude shaded pink lipstick to tie the entire look together. The hairstyle was simple with side partition and backcombing to give a body to the hair on the crown. The rest of the hair was straightened and she looked gorgeous.
The Mayoun Dress & Makeup
Another beautiful creation of Faiza Saqlain, Maya Ali wore a gorgeous shade of sap green on the mayoun function, which went perfectly well with the theme of the day. She jazzed her look up a bit and kept it feminine and effortless at that. She wore a beautiful sleeveless short shirt and patiala salwar. It was a self-printed shirt which was embellished with the rustic gold gotta. The shalwar was also embellished and looked beautiful. The net dupatta had a gotta detailing to it with tassels all around. She accessorized herself with elaborate statement jhumkas, a polki ring on one of her fingers and a pair of sap green bangles. For footwear she chose sparkly mirrored khussas, which went well with this Punjabi styling and fashion that she opted for this event.
After keeping her hair straight for the first two functions, she decided to go for a different look. This time around, she styled her hair in voluminous waves and center parted them. Due to it being a day function, Maya kept her makeup very minimal. She however defined her eyes with an eyeliner and highlighted the inner corner of her eyes to bring attention to them and make her eyes look awake. She wore a lot of pink blush to bring in the element of freshness and liveliness to her face because it was a day event.
The Shendi Dress & Makeup
Maya Ali wore a beautifully designed lehenga choli for her brother’s wedding which was a creation of Faiza Saqlain. After keeping her looks comparatively simple for the previous events, she went full glam and elaborate on the Shendi function. Since it was Mehndi and Shadi rolled into one, keeping the theme in her mind, she came up with this look thoughtfully. Her beautiful dress was a gorgeous shade of pink and golden, and the mehndi element was brought into it with the green detailing as well as motifs on the lehenga. The blouse was crop and the sparkly chiffon sleeves were extended till the back of her hands which were then tied in a middle finger. She wore an elaborate jewellery set with tikka, jhumkis and a gorgeous necklace. The dupatta was also sparkly and again had the gotta detailing to it on borders along with the tassles. The lehenga was a beautiful vibrant shade of pink with a beautiful design to it. It was heavily flared which accentuated Maya’s waistline and slim figure perfectly.
Maya wore her hair in a sleek bun and adorned it with gajras. She looked like a heroine straight out of an 80’s Bollywood movie. Her makeup was beautifully done where she wore a winged eyeliner. Bronzed her face a lot and wore a lot of highlighter to give herself a glass skin. Maya has such beautiful eyes which can carry thick eyeliner beautifully. The makeup artist also accentuated the crease of her eyes and gave her an extended transition shade which was taken till her brow bone. She wore a beautiful shade of brown nude lipstick and kept her eyebrows bushy and not too defined. She looked ravishing on the Shendi function.
The Walima Dress & Makeup
For Walima, yet another beautiful creation of Faiza Saqlain, Maya Ali wore a gorgeous white saree. After a lot of color and sticking with golds, she chose a completely different palette – whites and silvers, which was a perfect choice for yet another day event. It is a white chiffon saree which has been embellished with silver sequins and rhinestones around the border as well as splattered across in the form of small motifs. The blouse is sleeveless and has been adorned with pearls all over. Maya also carried a beautiful pouch which was also white and went perfectly well with the white saree. Maya Ali wore a beautiful polki set with emerald stone in the middle. She also wore a set of silver bangles on both her wrists.
She went for an elaborate and glamorous hairstyle to give herself a very defined and composed look. She wore her hair in beautiful luscious curls and kept them on one of her shoulders. Maya went for a dark smokey eye makeup look keeping in mind the white color of her saree. The makeup artist defined her cheekbones with the help of contouring and brought attention to her cheekbones with the help of highlighting. She is wearing a beautiful shade of mauve pink lipstick and looks stunning.
This concludes the details of Maya Ali’s makeup and dresses from her brother’s wedding. Which of these looks were your favorite? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below.

Social media influencer and vlogger Irfan Junejo left his fans disappointed when he announced to quit making videos anymore. He released a video titled ‘I Quit‘ and left his fans disappointed.
Irfan Junejo in his video message cleared that due to vlogging he is having anxiety and self-esteem issues and for now he is taking a break.
Fans and followers suspected that Irfan Junejo left vlogging because he didn’t receive an award for his achievements at PISA 2020 but he came forward and clarified everything.
The young vlogger thanked his fans and said, “Hello duerz, thank you for all the kind messages over the past few days. I am really blessed to have such kind of people in my life. I can’t reply to everyone individually as much as I try so I’ll just put a story here.”
He further clarified, “No award show has anything to do with my decision. I am not that naive and emotional. I just need some time away from Youtube to focus on my health.”
He announced that he will be doing those things in the future which will make him happy. “I’ll be back soon making things that bring me joy, which unfortunately aren’t typical daily vlogs anymore. Duaon ka talabgar, apka bhai.”
The beautiful model Eman Suleman tied the knot with her beau Jamil Haider Rizvi. Eman Suleman had simple and traditional wedding functions where only close friends and family were invited.
The stunning couple met when Eman wanted to learn kickboxing and Jamil Haider Rizvi was the trainer. The husband of Eman Suleman took to Instagram and wrote how they met.
He shared, “I met this Eman back in 2017 as a client who wanted to learn kickboxing. She came in for just a month because she lived closer to Multan than Lahore. During that time we discussed how amazing Sri Lanka was and this town called Galle with its beautiful fort and this amazing quaint little place with the BEST burgers called Rocket Burger.”
He went on and said, “As lovely as this conversation was, we didn’t speak/meet for the next two years. Didn’t really become close or too friendly.”
He praised Eman Suleman and said, “May 2019 we met again. October 2019 I’m engaged to her. January 2020 I’m married to her. February 2020 we are in rocket burger. What a dream. Only the burger was absolutely shit and the fort just wasn’t as nice anymore. But it was still the best it could have been because at the end of the day, I was finally there with her. Bari achi bivi hay. Ulti Maray gi yeh caption parh kay.”
Finally we have the news, all Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor fans have been waiting for. The real life couple are coming together for a drama and that too very soon.
The news was shared by production house 7th Sky Entertainment, who made the announcement on their Instagram.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B8mGaWQFR_F/
“7thSkyEntertainment is thrilled to bring you your favourite real life couple @ayezakhan.ak and @danishtaimoor16 as the leading pair in an upcoming drama serial!✨ Are you excited? We certainly cannot wait to see them onscreen in their characters together for the first time after their marriage! Can you guess the name of the drama,” read the post.
The same picture was shared by Ayeza Khan on her Instagram where she added the details, sharing names of her and Danish’s character for the drama. Ayeza Khan will be playing Mehru while Danish Taimoor will be taking the role of ShahJahan for the upcoming drama, which seems to be a romance story from the pictures shared.
Accoring to news, the drama will feature a star-studded cast and is expected to hit TV screens on Geo Entertainment in the first quarter of 2020.
This will be the first drama serial of Ayeza Khan and Danish together after getting married in 2014. Before their marriage, Ayeza and Danish had shared the screens in multiple drama serials including Saari Bhool Hamari Thi, Shareek e Hayat, Kitni Girhain Baaki Hain as well as a telefilm called Jab We Wed.
Here are a few other pictures of Mehru and Shahjahan;
After delivering hit drama serials from Hum TV and ARY Digital, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, the ace writer, is now set to make a mark from Geo Entertainment as well. According to news, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar has signed a special deal with 7th Sky Entertainment and will be writing more dramas for them to be aired on Geo Entertainment.
“I have signed a deal with Asad Qureshi and Abdullah Kadwani of the 7th Sky Entertainment. I will be writing about 3-4 dramas for them every year,” a leading online publication, quoted Khalil ur Rehman Qamar.
Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, no matter how controversial he is, is one of the top writers in Pakistan. The writer has given us hit dramas including Pyare Afzal, Sadqay Tumharay, Landa Bazaar, Mohabbat Tumse Nafrat Hai and the recently hit Meray Paas Tum Ho. Khalil ur Rehman Qamar has also written the highest grossing film in Pakistan i.e. Punjab Nahi Jaungi and is currently working on the script for London Nahi Jaunga for Humayun Saeed again.
Working with a production giant like 7th Sky Entertainment, that already has a knack for creating the biggest sensations on television, Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, is certainly going to bring to the audience some serious entertainment and maybe more heartbreaks with his usual writing style.
Finally Ehd E Wafa brought the episode that everybody had been excitedly waiting for. Although this week’s episode had Saad and Dua finally tying the knot, what excited Pakistan more was the SSG reunion. The boys are now back together as friends and no matter how ominous the upcoming episodes appear to be, this week’s episode was all about friends and the power of friendship.
SSG Reunion in Ehd E Wafa’s latest episode has made the entire Pakistan emotional as majority of people are missing their friends and realizing the value of true friendship.
Check out these reactions from social media below to see how Ehd E Wafa’s latest episode is making Pakistanis miss their friends;
And that’s not it. Along with the friendship and the bonding shown, some people couldn’t help but praise how the four actors were absolutely natural with their chemistry as friends. Osman Khalid Butt, Wahaj Ali, Ahmed Ali Akbar and Ahad Raza Mir have done absolutely wonderful in their respective characters in Ehd E Wafa.
The casting of this show is so on point. The chemistry these 4 share as best friends is so real. Not even for once it seems that they are acting. It all looks so natural. Plus writer has made sure that we connect to both their quarrels and fun ❤#EhdeWafapic.twitter.com/FfcX7y7OtC
There is no denying the fact that Pakistani drama industry is blessed with the best. There is no dearth of talent when it comes to acting but there are always times when some actors fail to give good performances. No one can be at their best all the time but viewers expect better from actors who have given some brilliant performances in the past. While these actors are really good performers otherwise, there are always those instances when they either overact or fail to breathe life into their characters. In an attempt to be ‘different’ these actors tend to give performances which are simply the worst. A script of course makes a huge difference but sometimes an average written character too can become likable if the actor performing the role gives a good performance.
Unfortunately, some of the biggest actors recently gave worst performances. Here is the list of those Pakistani actors who gave the worst performances in the recent dramas.
Natasha Hussain (Ye Dil Mera)
Natasha Hussain is a well-known model who made her comeback in dramas with the play Ye Dil Mera. Ye Dil Mera is a popular play with some big names attached to it. Natasha Hussain is playing the role of Farhana Khala, a sister, wife and khala whose role is limited but crucial to the plot. Farhana Khala all of a sudden is shown being highly inquisitive about her sister’s death and that is when the viewers repeatedly got to see scenes covering her curious mind. Natasha Hussain’s character itself doesn’t have a lot to offer but her performance makes it even more annoying. From her outlook to her expressions, everything is all over the place! You would expect better from someone who has had so much exposure in the industry. Natasha Hussain has taken Farhana Khala’s curiosity to a whole new level with her exaggerated expressions. She has tried too hard to show Farhana’s puzzling state of mind and has ended up leaving the viewers puzzled whether they should watch her scenes or just forward them! Natasha Hussain is also seen wearing more make-up than necessary in all the scenes and it does not even look like it has been done by a professional. She could have kept her look casual and stylish at the same time but that has definitely not been the case. In most of the scenes she has dressed up like a teenager which does not help! Did Natasha Hussain think she needed to show that she could still pull of the looks Sajal Ali is sporting in the drama, even at this age?! It certainly seems like it!
Osman Khalid Butt (Ehd-e-Wafa)
Osman Khalid Butt is a really popular actor who has been part of some of the biggest dramas recently. While Osman Khalid Butt does wonders when he is playing a fun or comic character, he cannot act to save his life in the more serious roles. Ehd-e-Wafa has some really powerful performances to its credit by young and old actors therefore Osman Khalid Butt’s wooden acting stands out like a sore thumb. More than 20 episodes of Ehd-e-Wafa have gone on air till now and out of all these episodes, Osman Khalid Butt has acted well only in few scenes. His long hair right from the beginning were distracting and he looked older than all the other boys. Once his character Shahzain went back to his village and he had to play the role of a spoiled feudal, he did not fit into it at all! He either had no expressions or way too many expressions, basically his acting has been anything but effortless. Since he got more screen time than all the other leading actors for many weeks, his bad performance stood out even more. Out of all the boys playing the lead in the drama, Osman Khalid Butt’s performance has been most disappointing. Osman Khalid Butt has once again proved that he lacks versatility and he can do only certain type of characters. When he has to do more serious roles, he completely loses track and the viewers find it really difficult to relate to his track. Osman Khalid Butt should stick to doing light and comic roles since he clearly cannot do serious acting.
Hira Mani (Mere Pass Tum Ho)
Hira Mani has earned a lot of fan following in the past few years. She also takes pride in the fact that she is the only actress who managed to make such a big name for herself even though she joined the drama industry after she got married and was already a mother. In Mere Pass Tum Ho Hira Mani joined the drama late as Rumi’s teacher Hania. Right from her first scene Hira Mani failed to bring out the best side of her character. Her overall look was another factor which made it difficult for the viewers to take her character as a teacher seriously. This character did not need any kind of glamour yet Hira Mani’s revealing sarees made the viewers wonder what she was thinking while choosing her wardrobe. Hania’s character was tricky and it had many shades. Unfortunately, the only shade which Hira Mani truly nailed was that of being a judgmental outsider. She completely failed to portray the loving and sensitive side of her character properly on screen. Hira Mani is another actress who has the same expressions no matter what role she is playing. She also tends to overdo the ‘cuteness’ whether the role demands it or not. Hania’s character could have been far more graceful if Hira Mani was less of herself and more of the character she was playing.
Irsa Ghazal (Ruswai)
Irsa Ghazal is a phenomenal actress but her acting in Ruswai is the perfect example of overacting which literally gets on your nerves right from her very first appearance. Irsa Ghazal plays the role of Salma, who is the mother of main lead Salman. She is a materialistic and controlling rich woman with absolutely no class. Thanks to Irsa Ghazal’s pathetic acting in the drama the ‘no class’ element of her character stands out more than anything else. Irsa Ghazal did not have to try so hard to make people hate her character but she did and in turn ended up being terribly annoying. Saba Faisal and Saba Hameed have been seen playing similar roles in dramas often and they managed to be negative without being extremely annoying like Irsa Ghazal. Irsa Ghazal has tried harder than necessary to play the vamp with her over exaggerated body language and a weird manner of talking which does not go well with her character. Salma has been shown as an educated yet shallow woman but Irsa Ghazal’s portrayal is such that Salma comes across as an annoying wannabe. Her acting makes you wonder why someone like Ariz Khan got married to her in the first place. In order to look fake, Irsa Ghazal has seriously compromised on her acting. We expected better from her since she is such a good actress otherwise.
Imran Ashraf (Kahin Deep Jalay)
Imran Ashraf recently gave the best performance of his career as Bhola. Ever since Ranjha Ranjha ended, it seems like Imran Ashraf has been trying extra hard to re-introduce himself as the ‘hero’ although he himself has said that he wants to redefine the term hero! That is why he has been concentrating on his overall look more than ever in dramas now and is trying hard to look different than he did in Ranjha Ranjha Kardi. While we absolutely loved Imran Ashraf in so many dramas because he is such a daring and brilliant actor, he completely failed to deliver in the play Kahin Deep Jalay. Imran Ashraf is playing a negative character in the play with the utmost bechargi! People are finding his scenes comic because of the expressions and the overall acting. There are others who think that he is trying too hard to walk away from Bhola and hence losing his grip on acting.
Sanam Jung (Mein Na Janoo)
After hosting morning shows for so many years, Sanam Jung surely needed to do a crash course in acting before taking up a new project. Sanam Jung plays a character which is incredibly annoying in Mein Na Janoo and she has made sure that her portrayal is even more annoying! Sanam Jung has clearly concentrated more on her make-up, hair and dresses than she has on her acting. Even though Saira’s character itself is quiet lame but Sanam Jung has made it even more so by nailing the bechargi and overdoing it even in situations where she is shown as a relatively stronger individual. Even when Saira tells her mother to take a stand in so many scenes or when she is re-assuring her husband of her love, Sanam Jung still does not change her expressions. Even while uttering dialogues which show Saira’s strength, Sanam Jung makes sure she looks like the most victimized person on earth. Sanam Jung’s expressions and her hairstyle are two things which have stayed the same no matter what her character went through! She has sported similar looks and expressions all through the drama which has been enough to put the viewers to sleep.
Firdous Jamal (Thora Sa Haq)
It is definitely ironic that an actor like Firdous Jamal who is so experienced and has given so many impressive performances is all of a sudden overacting in the play Thora Sa Haq. Firdous Jamal’s character in the play is simple and it could even be quite likable yet his acting has been over-the-top right from the start. His portrayal is a serious case of too many expressions and trying too hard. Why would a seasoned actor like him do something like that? We can only wonder! Watching Firdous Jamal’s scenes in Thora Sa Haq is tormenting because his overacting is simply unbearable. Even some of the younger actors are giving a far better performance than him. Even though the character he is playing in the drama has taken a positive turn but Firdoud Jamal’s performance continues to be as exaggerated as it has been right from the first episode.
Parveen (Mera Dil Mera Dushman)
The actor playing Parveen’s role in Mera Dil Mera Dushman seems to be really impressed by the star plus negative characters since she has been giving the most evil and conniving expressions even when there is no need to do so. We are pretty sure she watched all those mother-in-laws in star plus plays who love putting their bahus through hell and then reenacted those performances in this one play. The way her eyes pop out and the manner in which she rolls those eyes is just plain hilarious although her role is definitely not comic. This is what happens when you take the evil side of your character more seriously than necessary!
There is one thing common between all these actors, all of them failed to portray different shades of their characters and only focused on one shade. These performances basically prove just how important it is for actors to understand their characters and not try too hard while portraying them on screen.

Celebrities Kids are celebrities themselves and that is very much true if we talk about the Bollywood industry. These days when celebrities are quite vocal about their personal lives and do share their children’s pictures and progresses with their fans and followers, almost every child of the star is a known star.
However, things were pretty different if you go two decades back. It was a very little that the audience got to see celebrities’ kids and Sara Ali Khan belongs to the same era. Being the daughter of veteran actress Amrita Singh and Saif Khan, Sarah is considered to be the cutest baby of the industry. Here are few of the most amazing pictures of Sara Ali Khan with other celebrities, indicating she is all famous and loved by the senior actors of the B-Town!
Sooryavanshi is one of the very much awaited movies of 2020 as it will be bringing back on screen, Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif together. The two of them have been seen on screen many times together but it has been quite a while that their fans have been waiting to have them on screen. Been directed by Rohit Shetty, the movie is all about the Cops and the Good and Bad, continuing the Shetty Legacy.
The movie is set for its release on March 27th, 2020 and the audience can simply not wait. The trailer was supposed to be out on February 27th, but it has now been delayed and will make out to the screens on March 2nd, 2020. So by then, keep your fingers crossed!
We did reveal just a few days back that Kangana will now be seen in an exclusive role that she has always been dreaming to play, and here comes its first look. The Panga actress will now be seen playing the role of the Air Force pilot in the movie Tejas. The movie is written and to directed by Sarvesh Mewar.
The story of the movie revolves around the event of including women as pilots in the Indian army in 2016. For the women of India, the event has been a sign of women empowerment to have the females in the combat role. The first look of the movie is out where you can see Kangana as a combat pilot with an air force plane at the back.
Kangana’s last movie Panga has badly failed to impress her fans and people now look forward to see what this actress has more to show in a quite strong role.
Box Office can be surprising at times. not only for the viewers, but for the actors as well. while some movies that are far too away from the basic understanding of the audience, do simply amazing, while the good story-line and a great cast goes all unwelcome by the fans. Talking about the much anticipated movie of this Valentines Day, Love Aj Kal has been quite a disappointment for the viewers. just in the first four days of the release, the movie has been able to grab a business of 20. crore approximately but the reviews of the movie are even worst.
Social media is all blasted with funny memes where viewers have shown how shocked they are to have a movie of this sort coming from Imtiaz Ali. Love Aaj Kal Again was already in a tricky situation ever since Saif Ali Khan commented on the trailer of the movie and said that he liked the trailer of his movie more.
For Sara Ali Khan, the movie has been a surprise since she was all motivated for its success and hoped for something great coming on her way after the movie to be released in the cinemas. Sara is deeply saddened that the movie is not yet able to reach where it was intended to be but is motivated to see the gradual progress still by the end of next week.

The new year has started and with this year we wish to see some of our favorite Pakistani actors on television. These actors have not been seen on television for a while and their fans would love to see them acting again in dramas. All of these actors are brilliant performers who have always left their mark every time they appeared in dramas. They also have massive fan following yet they make their fans wait for years before they make an appearance. Some of these actors took a break only recently but it would be great if this year, they are seen in dramas again. With the Pakistani film industry flourishing, some of the best actors have shifted their focus from dramas to television. These actors obviously want people to buy a ticket to see them perform. In most countries it is a norm that film actors do not act in dramas but in Pakistan, there are many actors who work in films as well as in dramas. Therefore it would be great if some of these actors could make their comeback in dramas this year especially because not everyone gets the chance to watch the films.
Here is the list of those talented Pakistani actors who should make a comeback in dramas in 2020.
Fawad Khan
Fawad Khan acted in a few dramas and then he started working in Bollywood. Once he came back to join the entertainment industry in Pakistan, he did very limited work. He is either seen in commercials or makes guest appearance in films. His fans miss watching him perform since he started his career with dramas. Although Fawad Khan is making sure that he makes his fans wait to see him perform on the big or the small screen but it would be such a treat if he could make a comeback in dramas this year. Any drama he chooses to be a part of will be an instant hit since there are so many people who anxiously want to see him in dramas again. It would surely be a dream come true for his fans.
Mahira Khan
Mahira Khan too it seems has chosen to work on the big screen and she has not yet shown any interest in working in dramas. Mahira Khan for the longest time was known as a drama actress. Now, there are so many of her fans who watch her movies just to see her perform. Mahira Khan is undoubtedly a superstar whose name sells dramas and films. We would love to see Mahira Khan making a comeback in dramas this year. Mahira Khan is another actress who hasn’t been part of a lot of dramas yet she is extremely popular among the masses. Her comeback in dramas will be the perfect gift for her fans who miss watching her on the small screen.
Fahad Mustafa
Although the fans get to see Fahad Mustafa regularly on television since he hosts a game show on one of the leading channels but he has not starred in a drama for many years now. Fahad Mustafa too has shifted his focus to films and production. His films have done really well and his performances in these films have captivated his audience every time. Fahad Mustafa was always known as a powerful character actor. His fans would love to see him performing in a drama again since he is such a versatile actor who has so much to offer.
Mehwish Hayat
Mehwish Hayat is another actress who has not been seen in dramas ever since Dillagi. After giving a remarkable performance in Dillagi, Mehwish Hayat also decided to work in films alone. She does not even talk about working in dramas again which is rather sad. There are so many viewers who would love to see Mehwish Hayat in yet another powerful role which is different from the one she played in Dillagi. Could 2020 be the year when Mehwish Hayat makes a comeback in dramas? We sure do hope so!
Alishba Yusef
Alishba Yusef is an incredible actress with an acting style which is different from others. Alishba has also not been seen acting in dramas for many years now. Alishba never pursued acting as a full time career but she always took up a drama after every few years. This time around the pause has been longer than ever. She has simply left acting for now but it would be great if she would make a comeback this year.
Maya Ali
Although Maya Ali too it seems has moved on to films but wouldn’t it be great if she makes a comeback in dramas? Most of the viewers miss watching Maya Ali on the small screen since she also has a massive fan following. Maya Ali’s last play on television Mann Mayal was a huge hit and after that she has not been seen in dramas again. Would you like to see her in a drama this year?
Aiman Khan
Aiman Khan was part of quite a few dramas right before she got married. Now, she was more focused on her married life and she also had her baby therefore she took a break from dramas. We are wondering if 2020 would be the year when she makes a comeback. Aiman Khan did say before getting married that she might leave showbiz but later on she also said that her decision was not definite. Aiman Khan is still young therefore if she makes a comeback now, she has a long career ahead of her. The fans are waiting for Aiman Khan to announce her comeback on television.
Most of the actors in this list got fame from acting in dramas but they prefer films over dramas now. While film is a much bigger medium and it is every actor’s dream to work in films but many people in Pakistan still do not go to cinemas to watch films. For them the only way to see their favorite actors perform is to watch their dramas. It would be incredibly nice to see these actors making a comeback in dramas in 2020.
Which one of these actors do you want to see making a comeback in dramas in 2020? Share your views in the comments section.
Tonight’s episode of Ehd-e-Wafa was fast-paced and thoroughly entertaining. The writer Mustafa Afridi has been making sure that every episode has enough emotional and meaningful scenes to keep the viewers connected to the characters. For the past few weeks every episode of Ehd-e-Wafa has been impactful and it continues to deliver. This recent episode covered a great deal. In fact all these developments could have been covered in more than one episode but it is good to watch a play which actually is taking off towards the end as opposed to slowing down because that is what generally happens. Usually by 22 weeks, the viewers are waiting for a drama to wrap up but Ehd-e-Wafa still has a great deal to offer. Tonight’s episode was directed brilliantly too. The wedding was covered quickly but convincingly and it was good to see that the focus was on the journeys of the main characters. I am still waiting for Shehryar to get in touch with Masooma, hopefully soon. The best part of this episode was Dua’s surprise and SSG’s reunion.
SSG Reunited
It was great watching all the boys together again. Their scenes together reminded me of the scenes we watched in the first few weeks. Even though they have come a long way in terms of their careers but when these 4 are together, they are still fun and adventurous. These scenes were so well written and beautifully executed. All those viewers who have crazy friends like these 4, must have been able to relate to these scenes. These grown up men who are actually quite serious and practical otherwise, turned into teenagers when they were with each other – that is the beauty of friendship. For a change Shahzain too was quite likeable in this episode and Osman Khalid Butt’s energy went well with the turn his character has taken. Saad too didn’t take the jokes seriously for a change and after a long time, these friends were back together like they were in college days.
The scene covering Firdous sahab’s meeting with the SSG boys after all these years was heart-warming. The respect these boys have given to their teacher and whatever they did to help him has been another inspiring element of the drama. Although, their relationship with Firdous sahab wasn’t ideal but it was that punishment they got in college which turned their lives around in a way. All of them needed such a shock so that they could get back on track. In a way Firdous sahab shaped up their lives with his discipline and strictness.
The Power of Media
Through Shariq’s scenes, the writer showed the power of media. All those people who were criticizing Ehd-e-Wafa for showing the corrupt element of all the institutions and organizations, must watch this episode since it clearly showed that there were people in the media like Shariq and his boss who were doing their job right. It was Shariq’s video that ultimately made all the difference and that is how Firdous sahab got his land back. Later on, Shehryar was ‘punished’ for his role in all this but that did not seem to make much of a difference to him.
The Wedding
Saad and Dua’s wedding was the most sweet and fun part of tonight’s episode. Right from the moment the SSG got together to the scene when Dua enters the marriage hall, the entire wedding was covered brilliantly. Dua gave Saad a big surprise on their wedding day and I absolutely loved Alizeh Shah and Ahad Raza Mir’s expressions in these scenes.
All of Saad and Dua’s scenes tonight were short but really cute. I loved the dialogues and the performances as well. The romance between Saad and Dua has always been sweet and not too cheesy. The credit khane ki machine dialogue was the best! Ahad Raza Mir is a brilliant actor who translates every single emotion superbly on screen.
Shehryar and Shahzain
Shehryar was transferred to Shahzain’s constituency and the welcome scene was one of my favorites tonight. Shehryar’s conversation with Laal Hussain resonated because his father too was in the same profession. Shehryar values people and their occupations in general but this profession is specifically close to his heart because of obvious reasons.
Shahzain’s political and family feuds got a lot of screen time tonight. The writer through these scenes, laid the foundations for what is coming ahead. Will Shahzain die? The story will once again take a more serious turn in the next episode when Shahzain gets injured and Saad goes away for his next mission. All of these boys are fighting some really serious battles and anyone of them can have a tragic ending. It would however be good if all of them stay alive till the end and then perhaps we can watch a sequel in the next few years!
Final Remarks
This was another episode of Ehd-e-Wafa with remarkable performances to its credit. There were so many small gestures shown in this episode which suggested how these characters were supporting each other. Whether it was Ramsha and Shariq, Dua and Saad, Dua and Saad’s parents or Shehryar and Firdous sahab – all these characters in some way or the other are proving to be a viable support system for each other. It was also good to see Gulzar there on the stage with Saad on his wedding. Overall, tonight’s episode was engaging and heart-warming.

Omair Rana is an actor and theatre director. He runs his theatre company by the name of Real Entertainment Productions (REP) that was founded in 2000 and has done over 50 plays ever since.
He is married to the love of his life, Maira Omair Rana. The couple faced lots of hardships in their relationship but their love story will surely melt your heart.
Omair Rans’s wife shared their beautiful story which is going quite viral on the internet these days. She shared, “1995. I was 16. He was 17. We saw each other for the first time in front of Copper Kettle in Liberty Market Lahore. He was a friend of my cousin’s and they met briefly while I waited next to the car. He thought I looked like a snob and I thought he seemed too chummy. So “hmph” teenage moment! We met off and on with the cousin but never got along. Snob vs too chummy didn’t stand a chance!”
“1997. I was 18. He was 19. I was in my BA 3rd year. He still hadn’t completed his A levels…moment of silence there. I took his number from the same cousin and called him one night in June to talk about something pestering me. Something I knew only he could help with. Incidentally he was alone at home and free. So, as fate would have it, the snob girl and the chummy boy ended up chatting the entire night. Something which is quite a heroic achievement in the times of one landline a house. That too in the TV lounge and Amma Abba’s surveillance at its peak. The next few days we ( separately in our own lives) couldn’t help but think of how well we got along in that one chat. It was actually as comfortable as chuddy buddies.”
She added, “So. A few days later I, the cheeti ( as my sister called me later) called him again! From the same landline ( it was an orange phone I still remember that. I still remember his phone number also) and from the same TV lounge. Guess what? Yes! Another all night chat. But drop scene yeh huwa ke meri walida mohtarima aa gayeen subha 5 bajay. She didn’t exactly figure out what was happening but of course antennas were up. And Mr Rana ki to sitti gum ho gayee (which he told me later). He said he walked outside on the road at 5 am for hours panicking that I may be in trouble.”
“Later in the day he walked to a PCO to call and check if all is well. The phone kept ringing and shutting until I picked it up. And a voice said “Sarah?” I said “ uhh no” He said “just wanted to check are you ok?” I said “Yes”. Two telephone conversations later we were both 100% certain that we wanted to get married,” Maira Omair Rana shared.
“1999. He told his mother kyunke bairooni maddad ki zaroorat par chukki thee. Aik rishta serious ho gaya tha. Army Captain. I wonder where he is now…ok. Focus. His mother was super supportive. I collected the himmat to confide in my mother. Jhaar pari lekin qayamat nahin ayee. Baree hee maharat se donon walidas to milwaya. Makhan lagaya. Kiya nahin Kiya. They both said ok we will help you. Plan yeh tha ke my Ami will defer potential rishtas and his mother will bring the rishta as soon as he nears graduation and can talk to Abu with some grace,” she said.
“2000. My Masters done. Itni parhi likhi qabil heroine. Hero ka final year. Finally!!! Rishta aa gaya.”
She continued and said, “2001. Finally a graduate. Hero found a job of 13000 Rs. Wasn’t great but I was ready to marry an unemployed man to Yeh to lottery thee. I started working. With almost the same pay…and Somehow, after two years of convincing and case pleading we got engaged on the 1st of January 2002. By far that day is, even now, the happiest day of my life. If anyone asks me that question, the first image that pops in my head is that night. It was surreal…honestly it was just meant to be. There was nothing going in our favour but somehow it happened.”
Maira Omair Rana said, “Understanding yeh huwee the shadi araaam Se ho gee. Obviously hero was 23 years old!!! But dekhain, dulhan 22 kee thee na…and that’s OLD in a conservative, Punjabi family. To naya katta khul gaya na. My parents wanted it over and done with ASAP and his parents were reluctant. I can understand both sides but qeema kis ka bun raha tha? Aik saal main tension peak par pohanch gayee aur wohee huwa jo filmi stories main hota hai. Hero ko laga unn ke Amma Abba ki “insult” ho rahee hai and unhon ne mangni tor dee… jee haan!!!”
“Lekin heroine ki dhittayee par to medal banta hai. Aadhi raat ko ja kar Abba ko jagaya aur bhaaan bhaaan kar ke dukhi kahani sunayee. Felix felicious feeling thee seriously. He heard me. And somehow promised to take care of everything. And he did. Date set ho gayee. Aglay saal ki! 365 days later.” Acha jee six months before the big day, Mr Rana decided to quit his job and pursue acting. Chalo jee. Naya sayapa. To huwa Kiya? Everyone discouraged him. Except me. But he wanted to satisfy his parents and went to UAE for a job hunt. Nope. No luck. Came back and announced that whatever it takes I am going to pursue my first love. Theatre and acting.”
She further added and said, “2003. To kar li shaadi. We were the happiest people alive. I honestly have seen VERY few couples as happy on their wedding day as we were. We were actually on cloud 9. Ready to take on anything that life brings. Anything.”

With its perfect script, amazing performances, great aesthetics and superb direction, Alif stands out amongst all other projects running on our television screens these days. A drama that depicts the spiritual journey of finding eternal love of Allah and the right path after being on the pinnacle of success, Alif’s story is captivating.
Currently the drama is going through a phase where Momina (Sajal Aly) and Qalb E Momin (Hamza Ali Abbasi) are starting to fall in love and yet misunderstandings cloud Momin, who just cannot help himself when it comes to Momina.
The latest episode had two absolutely striking halves, one which showed the great chemistry between Hamza Ali Abbasi and Sajal Ali and the other where Sajal Aly cut off Savera Nadeem’s (Maham from Meray Paas Tum Ho) record for delivering the slap of the year. Momina slaps Qalb E Momin while she is in love with him and there the entire audience becomes divided about which aspect of Alif’s latest episode to react to.
Here, check out the latest reactions on Alif’s episode this week and tell us what you think yourself;
yaar I cant get over this scene,they are so haseen and the way momin looks at momina is❤️❤️❤️❤️ the journey from respect to love can be seen through momin's eyes.#Alifpic.twitter.com/bHgIzMnyA2
And of course there were reactions for another ‘slap of the year’ when Momina didn’t hesitate to clear off any misunderstanding Momin might have had without speaking a word.
Yaar baaqi saari cheezein ek taraf, woh thappar tha bara zor ka. And it was so unexpected. Momin was definitely not prepared for it. Bechara 😂😂😂😂 #alif

In every drama, there are both good and the not so good characters. A good character comprises such qualities that it makes it unforgettable and leaves an impact on the viewers. The writers always get full credit for coming up with such characters who speak to the audience on a personal level and help elaborate the realities of life on TV screen in a very realistic manner. The writers also use characters in their stories to convey certain messages and by making them inspirational, they help shape the minds of the audience in that direction.
Pakistani dramas are filled with such characters every now and then who make you look towards the brighter side of the picture. A good character doesn’t necessarily have to be a positive character, if the writer has given it a complete personality who has his or her solid reasons, then they also qualify to be termed as best characters because in the end, they leave an impact. Actors who are assigned the task of portraying such characters usually have the biggest responsibility to do justice to the idea that the writers had in their minds.
Let’s take a look at 15 best characters that can be seen in the dramas that are currently being aired:
Dua (Ehd e Wafa)
This young girl’s character named Dua is an inspiration to all the impressionable minded viewers who are watching Ehd e Wafa. What makes it even special is that the writer has targeted a certain demographic by showing young characters who have their aspirations and have set goals for themselves. Dua’s character is refreshing to see in such an era of Pakistani dramas where every young girl is shown to be growing up dreaming of her knight in shining armour who will get married to her and elevate her status in her own eyes. Dua’s character is a depiction of a strong independent individual who against all odds stood firm on her ground. In toughest circumstances, she succeeded in earning her parent’s support because she made them believe in herself. Now with her will power, she is a doctor and has taken all the right decisions, Saad being one of them!
Abdul Ala (Alif)
Words will not be enough to describe the beauty of this character. It is unfortunate that the drama Alif is at such a stage where the viewers rarely get to see this beautiful character but because he has been the backbone of this story and the fact that Alif is still on-air, he automatically scores a spot in this list. Abdul Ala’s character was wholesome, he was a description of every such human being who has made mistakes and regretted later, and also held himself responsible when he knew what he did was something wrong. Abdul Ala’s journey was nothing short of a realistic experience where people learn from their mistakes and after holding onto their rigidity, they come to a stage in life where they learn that it is costing them the peace of their heart and soul. The way Abdul Ala became a mentor to his grandson Qalb e Momin and could predict every move of his because of his wisdom and experience was a beautiful experience to come across. One of the best characters hands down!
Saad (Ehd e Wafa)
Saad’s character is shown to be larger-than-life, in a sense that he always spreads positivity and influences and motivates people around him. Saad’s character is very refreshing to see because the writer has added layers in him where he was emotional but learnt to deal with his emotions as he attained maturity and clarity of thoughts. Saad always believes in teamwork which also makes him a selfless person because he knows that the reward he will get is far bigger than the favors he does for his friends and acquaintances. Saad is born to excel and that is another brilliant aspect of his personality!
Shehryaar (Ehd e Wafa)
Shehryaar’s character has that emotional feel to it which strikes a chord of the viewers every time they come across his track. Shehryaar’s character portrays the struggles of someone who comes from a very humble background and because he understands all the sacrifices his parents have made for him, he has never lost his focus. Shehryaar is a man of principles and believes in doing right by people. Not abusing and exploiting the power that he has attained also make him a best and memorable character for all the drama buffs.
Momin (Alif)
Momin’s character has stirred the emotions of the viewers as well because his lifelong journey has been told by Umera Ahmed and she has shown all the phases that Momin has been through. Young Momin was a loveable and adorable child who wanted the best for his parents, he was basically a victim of a dysfunctional marriage and from a very young age he saw his mother in a mental and emotional trauma, his father left and Momin spent his entire childhood finding answers for the questions and solving riddles. The adult Momin was trying to find solace by getting lost in the crowd, in the noise, in the world but after his grandfather’s death, he was shaken to the core and forced to think about the purpose of his life. His journey is realistic because each and every viewer watching it can relate to it!
Saad’s Mother (Ehd e Wafa)
To see such a mother in a drama who stands by her son like a support system, guides him like a mentor, is always emotionally available for him like a friend and sheds a tear at the thought of something happening to her son out of her unconditional love for him is absolutely beautiful and makes her one of the best characters that the viewers are getting to see in a current drama. All of her scenes have a feel-good vibe to them because its given that every time she will speak, it will be straight out of her heart and will make a lot of sense. A very inspirational motherly character for sure!
Husn e Jahan (Alif)
A selfless woman who did everything for others all her life and when she made a decision for herself, she was once again forced to be selfless because now, she had to do the heavy lifting for her emotionally absent husband and curious little child who deserved nothing but the best from his parents. Husn e Jahan knew that because her husband was unable to do enough for their child, she was always there for him, she was kind and gentle in her approach towards her son. Husn e Jahan’s character is such that it will make you cry and feel for her because the way she was mistreated and misunderstood by all those who mattered to her the most.
Momina (Alif)
She is another character of this beautiful lot who is selfless and has always done everything to fulfill all the shoes. Momina has been there for her parents, her brother. Before his death and after his death, Momina has put her family above her. The only thing she wished for was the love of someone but when she saw it was too demanding and will force her for lifelong compromises, she walked away. It won’t be wrong to say that Momina’s character is all alone, she does have a family and very supportive friends but in this whirlpool of a life that she is leading, she has realized that she can not fall back on anyone because there’s absolutely no one for her. Momina, despite being tired has not given up and what’s the best aspect of her personality is that all the fame and success that she has achieved does not mean anything to her because it was not what she dreamt of.
Shamsa (Thora Sa Haq)
Yes, this drama named Thora Sa Haq also has one such character who has surprisingly made it to this list and it happens to be the character of Seher’s hometown neighbour Shamsa. What’s best about her character is that she has stood for the right and despite facing objection from her own good for nothing husband and daughter, she stayed firm on her decision of supporting Seher. One of her reasons for being nice to an orphan like Seher was heart-warming that because she wanted good to come her daughter’s way, she was doing the favor of someone else’s daughter Seher too. Usually in such a setting, it is hard to find such characters who can differentiate between right and wrong and go to any lengths to do right by someone.
Nagina (Deewar e Shab)
A character of a single mother who never got the acknowledgment of her mother and spent her entire life filling the shoes of her dead sister who was idealized by her mother, Nagina’s journey has never been easy. Despite being someone who suffered from low self-esteem and saw herself unworthy, she succeeded in being a provider for her entire family for years. Nagina put everyone above her and completely forgot about herself because she knew that she was the only one who could bear the responsibility and the burdens of her family. Nagina never complained, however when things got too overwhelming for her, she always channeled out her frustrations by going around taunting and teasing her frenemies, as well as flaunting her successes and blessings in front of them. It showed her lighthearted approach towards life when things got tougher and also showed that she didn’t mind being a child at heart sometimes.
Hashir (Jo Tu Chahay)
In a typical drama which is all about mohallay wala cousins ka love, as well as characters which are either spineless or so full of themselves, Hashir is the only sane character who stands out and for all the good reasons. Hashir’s character is sorted, mature and far-sighted. He knows how to differentiate between right and wrong, therefore this is what he tries to preach to others as well.
Nageen (Deewangi)
Deewangi is basically a Pakistani version of Korean drama, which is all about a filthy rich young businessman and a girl from humble background who believes in herself and does not look for shortcuts to make her life easy. Deewangi is a light-hearted, feel-good kind of drama which definitely is entertaining. The character of Nageen is a breath of fresh air too because in such an era where the drama buffs are bombarded with freeloader sort of characters and damsel in distresses, Nageen is self-sufficient, she doesn’t shy away from standing up for the right and also doesn’t mind voicing her opinions despite the pressures that she is faced with. Although this drama is very much similar to a lot of Korean dramas that are based on a similar theme, can we have more such female leads in our dramas please?
Amaanullah (Ye Dil Mera)
It is a layered character which has been translated on screen with the help of a measured acting. Amaanullah’s character definitely has ulterior motives, however the way the writer Farhat Ishtiyaq has written it and explained his story makes it an interesting character to explore and get to know about. Some parts of Amaan’s personality are definitely problematic but this is what makes him more interesting because he has a lot to offer. He is getting acquainted with the idea of love, which was never in his plan of action, however it brings out his vulnerable side. The focus on bringing down the one who wronged him and took his entire family away from him also gives his character that extra edge which makes you root for him!
Salar (Deewar e Shab)
Salar’s character from Deewar e Shab is also quite interesting because he is a man of his words, he is a man of principles and knows how to fulfill his promises against all odds. It is always refreshing to see such characters in our dramas who are so young and are very much sorted to not only fend for themselves but also do right by the people that surround them.
Shanzay (Ghalti)
Although the character of Shanzay has not been given much coverage in the drama but as much as we have come across, she definitely turns out to be the best character from the lot, which is either filled with super negative nancies or damsels in distress. Shanzay is a career oriented girl who does not believe in giving the charge of her life to anyone. She believes in making her rules and following them. Shanzay also can not stand the idea of someone being mistreated and doesn’t bother if it is going to cost her anything because she knows that by the end of the day her conscience will be clear. We are definitely looking forward to how the journey of Shanzay will unravel in the upcoming episodes of Ghalti.
This concludes the list of 15 best characters that are seen in the dramas that are currently on air.
