Khud Parast Last Episode Story Review – Complete Ending

Opening Thoughts – Complete Ending:

Ohkay so, the ending of Khud Parast was well-written & well-executed. The fact that they started wrapping the drama up in the previous episodes made it a lot more easier for them to give it a detailed & slow ending, rather than just rushing with everything last minute & that definitely made an impact. When the drama ended, the first thought that I had was ‘bohat acha drama tha’ & I guess this is what our drama-makers should aim for where this is the first thing that the viewers think of, rather than wishing for more or imagining what it would have been like if they had added more details. For me, Khud Parast was a complete drama which had a complete & to-the-point ending.

The Consequences – Both Good & Bad:

Hanan & Beenish got married & right from the beginning Beenish started doing everything that a dutiful wife does for her husband; being with him & extending help & support when she felt he was down. I kind of liked that they didn’t dwell too much into their relationship & the writer didn’t focus on showing to the viewers that Hanan & Beenish were now madly in love with each other. Rather, the writer kept their relationship very simple & reserved, exactly how it should be because it was based on the fact that both Hanan & Beenish needed each other’s support in their lives. I liked seeing that even after marriage, Hanan & Beenish still had a line of decency between them because they both were not only well-aware of each other’s past but also knew the heart break they both had experienced. Hanan & Beenish did get married & they did lead a very good life by emotionally setting down but now they were each other’s life partners, standing by one another through thick & thin by being each other’s support system.

Adeel divorced Uswa & she didn’t even find a place back in her siblings’ lives. Saad refused to welcome her back because he blamed Uswa for Zarina’s death. Maria also was done with her. I think Maria’s reaction was justified, she tried to save her sister from falling into this deep pit but now, she didn’t have anything left to offer to Uswa. It was nice to see Rameez trying to show Maria the other side of the picture but then Maria had made up her mind that she had nothing to do with Uswa.

I think after watching the previous episode, everyone exactly knew what Uswa’s ending & her fate would be. She passed away after a long suffering & she immediately did realize that now everything that she was facing was basically a consequence of her wrongdoings but I wish she had gotten a chance to apologize or at least had done something to find a chance to apologize to both Beenish & Hanan.

Bakhtawar faced her fair share of consequences that is why I kind of felt relieved that Hanan saved her from Nazish. Moeez was thrown out of everyone’s life & I am glad that they didn’t put too much focus on showing his misery – his fate was decided & that was enough for the viewers to know what he was now going to go through.

The last scene of the drama was done well but was very sad. Uswa passed away & Hanan without even knowing contributed to her final rites. At that moment I felt uneasy thinking Hanan might see that it’s Uswa & he will be scarred & disturbed for life but I am glad that he went away without looking at her. He did the right thing by contributing financially out of good-will but then going away was also figurative of how he had moved on. Honestly, he had faced so much of humiliation & was disturbed for so long, that now staying oblivious of Uswa & her death was something that he deserved. The last scene was definitely heart breaking but it was done so so well. Good to see Hanan’s life back on track.

Closing Thoughts – Well Done Team Khud Parast:

Overall, this drama was my favorite & now that it has ended, that hasn’t changed. Yes, the previous few episodes were too slow for my liking but the fact remains that this drama overall was superb & gripping. Everything starting from production value to writing to direction & acting – every thing was spot on. All the characters were important & contributed a great deal in completing the picture. Khud Parast was an intelligent piece of writing where it focused on a bunch of flawed people who were struggling & fighting their battles in their own orbits – some introspected & learned while others faced the consequences of staying blind to their wrongdoings. My favorite aspect of Khud Parast remains to be the dialogues – hands down this drama had some amazing, thought provoking conversations to its credit which were worded so so beautifully. I remember when the drama began I was unhappy with the portrayal of Hijab as a symbol of oppression but I am glad this wasn’t the focus in the rest of the story. It just turned into a struggle of a young immature girl who got married with a wrong perspective & could not accept anything & everything that came her way, even if it was positive. Ramsha Khan & Shehzad Sheikh were the stars of this drama, they both acted brilliantly. Asma Abbas is such an effortless actor & it was a treat seeing her as an authoritative Bakhtawar. All the supporting actors played their parts really really well & made this drama complete. The OST grew on me too & props to the editors for using it at a right time to add more depth to the scenario. This happens to be one of the few OST’s that did not get to me at all due to over-usage. Khud Parast was an amazing drama for sure. Please share your thoughts about this entire journey of Khud Parast.

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Pakistan has one of the best-armed forces in the whole world and they excel in every aspect be it the land forces, airforce or the navy.

Ranjha Ranjha Kardi Episode 21 Story Review – Survival Comes First

Contrary to everyone’s expectations, the focus tonight wasn’t on Bhola’s deteriorating health or Noori’s frame of mind but the focus quickly shifted to Noori and Sahir’s track. The issue of marital rape and Bhola beating up his wife was brushed under the carpet completely. Noori’s practical approach and strength this time around was unreal at times mainly due to the fact that Noori did not even once think about what had happened. Noori’s survival instinct has always been strong but it seems like it is stronger than ever now because she knows that she has nowhere to go and no one to turn to. Noori’s thought process and her actual feelings were covered only in two scenes. Yet again, the recent shift in the story was surprising in many ways. Noori went from being scared of Bhola to confronting him by the end of this episode.

Important Scenes

Noori and Fehmida’s reaction gave everything that happened in the previous episode a completely different turn. The fact that Bhola was extremely violent with Noori was not addressed as an issue at all. Instead, Fehmida questioned Noori’s love for Bhola and tried to make her ‘understand’ that it was perfectly normal for Bhola to make these advances. Fehmida obviously belongs to the old school of thought, something which has been well established so far therefore even though I was expecting her to ‘protect’ Noori, her endorsement of a husband forcing himself on his wife was completely in line with her character. The fact that the physical abuse otherwise was not discussed at all by either Noori or Fehmida was definitely disappointing.

Ranjha Ranjha Kardi Episode 21 Story Review - Survival Comes First

The scene covering Noori and Sahir’s meeting was the most anticipated scene yet it was not executed flawlessly. Noori was soaking wet outside but by the time she got in, her hair and clothes were dry. Syed Jibran and Iqra Aziz acted really well in this scene because the shock and confusion was quite obvious from their expressions. Noori’s conversation with Komal clearly suggested that Sahir’s reappearance in her life was like a nightmare for her. Sahir on the other hand envied Noori, at first he thought Noori was the maid but later on when he found out that she was the wife of the only son who was the sole heir of all the wealth, he was sure Noori had hit a jackpot. Sahir always wanted to be rich and even now he cannot look beyond the status of this family therefore he looks at everything only from this perspective. He was more than ready and simply ecstatic to be a part of this family and had absolutely no issue being the ‘ghar damad’.

Tonight, Sahir did not come across as someone who would do anything for anyone selflessly. This character keeps you guessing, it has always been like this and that is the main reason why it is impossible to predict what his actual intentions are. Is he just a little greedy; an average man who wouldn’t mind having an easy access to someone’s wealth by marrying their daughter or is he someone who actually respects Nusrat enough to feel privileged to be part of his family? The only thing obvious in this episode was that he went from being ecstatic to being really confused and in shock after finding out Noori was the bahu. Every time Noori met Sahir, she did not and was not asked to cover her head which was rather odd since the conservative and rigid rules of the house were spelled out clearly in the previous episodes.

Ranjha Ranjha Kardi Episode 21 Story Review - Survival Comes First

The change in Bhola’s personality – from aggressive and agitated to sleeping all the time – was another development which made you wonder why all of a sudden the affect of the medicines he took last night and in the morning again, wore off so quickly. After what Bhola did to Noori, Noori clearly does not want to give him any more of these medicines. Noori figured out that this recent change in Bhola’s personality was due to the medicines and chose to lie to Nusrat.

Fehmida gave her house keys to Noori and the way Noori looked at these keys was definitely meaningful. It is difficult to figure out whether Noori took this as a responsibility she was going to keep or an opportunity to start over. So far, Noori has not exploited her position in this house even once therefore it is quite likely that this will probably be nothing more than a ‘warning’ sign for Nusrat who will get more insecure.

What’s Next?

The preview of the next episode showed that Sahir will finally meet Bhola as well. His thinking regarding Noori’s ‘perfect’ life will change after this meeting. Noori will question Nusrat about Bhola’s medicines and his wife will probably tell him that Noori is now incharge of the house keys. That’s when Nusrat will start feeling even more threatened from Noori once again. Waiting to find out more about Noori’s actual feelings and wondering if the survival instinct will ever take a backseat in Noori’s life.

Cheekh Episode 12 Story Review – Realistic Portrayal

Opening Thoughts – Intense & Interesting:

Ohkay so, this episode of Cheekh was interesting & intense. It kept me engaged right from the beginning till the end. The previous episodes showed the battle between the two parties but now, it was all about that one person who was torn between his life partner & his siblings. The way the writer penned down this entire scenario was quite interesting because it was all very realistic & convincing.

Shayan Was Trying To Figure Things Out:

Shayan came back & ever since his return, he was being fed one lie after another. On one side, he saw his siblings angry, frustrated & in a hurry to hear his final decision but on the other, there was Mannat, all alone, content but still standing by her words & facing all the atrocities coming her way patiently. Shayan took a little time to analyze what was happening, how Mannat was being treated & what her behavior towards others was & despite being confused, he kind of saw some sort of honesty in Mannat.

Shayan made it clear to Mannat that he can not give his vote to either her or Wajih, as in order to do that he needed some time but seeing how Mannat was even ready to put her marriage at stake did hit Shayan hard. He couldn’t really comprehend why it was so easy for Mannat to even think on those lines where she was ready to let go of him. It did force Shayan to do some thinking & as he spent time in that house, he could see all the wrong that was happening.

In this episode, Shehwar got some coverage too where she decided to ask some questions but was sternly silenced by her husband Yawar. Yawar is a sure shot hypocrite where he preaches one thing but practices the complete opposite. Yawar’s interaction with Shehwar also showed the kind of relationship they both share where Yawar does not give Shehwar the freedom to think or question, plus he wants her to follow his orders all the time. Going by how Shehwar’s attitude later was in the rest of the episode, it did show that she is quite submissive & is someone who might not question her husband or doubt his choices.

It was nice to see how slowly Mannat was starting to get the support of Shayan. When he came it did look like he was flustered & unhappy with her but slowly & steadily it was obvious that he was feeling a lot for Mannat after witnessing himself what she was going through. Haya really is turning out to be an annoying character but then all those who will blindly support Wajih till they find out the truth will remain annoying. Haya is the youngest, therefore she can not even imagine the fact that her brother is capable of doing something so horrid, that is why she wanted Mannat out of her life & her house because she doesn’t believe in Mannat’s side of the story. I really liked how Shayan slowly started taking a stand for his wife, yes, he is torn between Wajih & Mannat but it was nice that he was not blindly supporting his younger brother. He was hearing whatever Yawar, Haya & Wajih had to say while also giving Mannat a chance to explain if she wanted to. After this episode, it is kind of clear that Shayan will not go by what his family says, he will always use his sensibilities & will base his decisions in his own judgment.

The last scene of this episode was again an interesting development. Shahwar heard whatever Wajih was saying to Mannat & as the preview suggested, she will be questioning Yawar later but I am sure Yawar will silence her again but I am sure this little incident will stay with her & make her curious to not just ignore whatever is happening around because her husband said so.

Closing Thoughts – Realistic Approach:

Overall, this episode of Cheekh was really nice. It had some sweet moments & some very intense & dramatic ones too. So far, what I love about Cheekh is that the writer has kept it very realistic & to the point. All the emotions, all the reactions, all the conversations seem very real & that means this drama will resonate with all the viewers because of the nature of its execution. All the actors are performing brilliantly, so well done Team Cheekh. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Cheekh.

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Aangan Episode 14 Story Review – Meaningless and Pointless

Aangan continues to be repetitive, unimpressive and unconvincing. Even after all these weeks, there isn’t a single character which I can connect to and root for. Right from the first episode complete focus has been on visuals with the script and the screenplay taking a backseat. The over-literary dialogues do not go well with the shallow characters and the over-emphasis on the makeovers and the cinematography clearly suggests that the producers did not give the viewers enough credit! It is tedious sitting through an entire episode of Aangan even when you skip the commercial breaks. The viewers see their favorite celebrities looking pretty on social media, in commercials and functions all year long therefore the drama makers should realize that good makeovers do not make up for a bad script and can in fact add further to poor execution.

Meaningless and Pointless

This episode covered Jamil’s confession, Chammi’s madness, Alia’s confusing state of mind and Daddi’s demise. I am still trying to figure out what the purpose of this drama is since it has been presented in such a ‘grand’ manner and it was promoted like it was the next big thing. Aangan is definitely not engaging and the seriousness with which it has been presented on screen does suggest that the team Aangan had a bigger purpose in mind yet even after all these weeks it continues to be pointless. The viewers also found out tonight that Najma was still alive although her mother never thought of her even once! Israr’s character is a disgrace since he has hardly been given any screen time yet somehow the viewers are supposed to feel for him. This episode was also filled with meaningless conversations which did not add anything new to the story.

Aangan Episode 14 Story Review - Meaningless and Pointless

The ‘Love’ Triangle

Jamil and his mother’s fascination with finding a parhi likhi bahu and Jamil’s ‘love’ for Alia made me wonder if this time a man will actually do something extreme and ‘rewrite’ this Aangan’s history! Chammi and Alia too had the same conversations in this episode. While Alia worried about Chammi growing distant, Chammi felt insecure because she could see that Jamil was falling in love with Alia. Chammi has always been blunt and honest but tonight she lied to Alia when she said she was looking out for her. The physical closeness in the scenes and the dialogues tonight yet again suggested that Jamil was incapable of falling in love with anyone at all. The scene on the balcony with Alia was quite similar to the one we saw earlier when Jamil was flirting with Chammi. Some of the dialogues in this episode were completely out of context which lead to even more confusion. I am finding it really difficult to digest the fact that Safdar disappeared after writing those letters. The person who informed him about Tehmina’s marriage must also have told him about her death and Mazhar’s arrest.

Aangan Episode 14 Story Review - Meaningless and Pointless

Overall Impression

The overly-staged treatment given to this play coupled with a script which is clearly going around in circles and is pointless makes Aangan one of the biggest disappointments of this season. After watching this episode of Aangan there are a few questions in my mind and no they are not about the characters or the plot. I am wondering – what were the makers thinking? How could such wonderfully talented and creative people go so wrong? How will this Aangan survive for another 8 weeks or so? Who will tune into the next season considering how badly written and executed this one is?

The preview of the next episode showed that Najma will make an appearance in the next episode and Chammi will probably bribe Shakeel to make Jamil jealous!

Do share your thoughts about this episode of Aangan.

Sohail Javed Filed Defamation Suit On Jami Fr Sexual Harassment Allegations

So, we all know about Jami who is a very good filmmaker and he has always talked about violence against women and in the industry. So, there was a turning point when Hollywood collectively stood against sexual harassment and thus started the Me Too movement. The wave then swept the whole world as many women talked about the harassment they had faced.

Pakistanis were not behind either and many people like the CEO of Patari were caught and sacked. Jami is one person n the industry who has openly talked about the culture prevailing in our industry too. He even supported Eman Suleman who recently spoke about sexual harassment in the industry.

Sohail Javed Filed Defamation Suit On Jami Fr Sexual Harassment Allegations

So, Jami read a letter written by a 19-year-old girl at the 2016 Lahooti Melo where the girl described that a famous director took her to his apartment where he raped her. She also told in the letter how she has coped with the trauma and that the said director is still going in his ways.

Now, no names were named in the letter, neither of the victim nor the predator but Sohail Javed has just filed a defamation suit of 1 billion on Jami over the sexual harassment allegations. Since no one was named in the letter, why has Sohail taken Jami to court is a mystery to many.

Do Bol Episode 5 & 6 – Simple Story Done Right

Opening Thoughts – Simple Story Done Right:

Ohkay so, this episode of Do Bol was intense but still showed events unfolding in the most simplest of manner. This is what I like about Do Bol, even though it has its fair share of dramatic moments, the overall feel of the story, characters, events & situations remains simple, real & very relatable. Do Bol is definitely turning out to be such a drama that I look forward to & I am happy about that!

Badar Got The Love of His Life:

I really like Gaiti’s character, even though things are always not in her favor but she doesn’t let it stop her. Before doing anything, Gaiti still decided to speak to her father, assuming that he’d care & listen to what she wanted. Gaiti also knew that Iqbal will not pay heed to her feelings but she still gave it a try. I like her persistent attitude. When Gaiti felt that Iqbal was going to get her married to Zafar by hook or by crook, she decided to get in touch with her mother Jahan Ara because Gaiti felt that she was the only one who could help her.

Nafeesa has always spoken about Jahan Ara with a lot of regard. It is like Nafeesa does not blame Jahan Ara for choosing to part ways with Iqbal, more or less sounding like she understands her perspective & that actually makes me want to know more about her. Iqbal & his entire family has always spoken against Jahan Ara but Nafeesa hasn’t, which kind of makes one wonder that she might not be as bad as Iqbal & Co. make her look like. What Gaiti did by taking matters in her own hands was only because of Iqbal. His careless & cold attitude towards his daughter made her do what she did. Gaiti has grown up facing rejection of her father that is why, now when she felt that he was literally snatching her life away from her, she decided to do something about it. Yes, all of this definitely was because she loved Sameer but apart from that, Zafar was definitely not an ideal guy that any girl would want to get married to, therefore pushing Gaiti to resort to running away. Gaiti tried to convey it to Iqbal but he was too engulfed in the love of his sister & nephew that he couldn’t care much about Gaiti.

Whatever Sameer went through was very realistic, at times when things are not meant to be, they just don’t happen even if it is the simplest of things & that is why he couldn’t meet Gaiti at the time they both had decided. Sameer was also getting pressurized by his mother but still it was good to see him being adamant to be with Gaiti. Gaiti kept on stopping Sameer but then even Sameer couldn’t really approach Iqbal through a proper channel because he didn’t have any support of his mother. If Safina had at least spoken to Iqbal once, things wouldn’t have taken such an ugly turn.

In this entire situation, it was interesting to see how Badar kept on reminding Gaiti that he loved her & that Sameer was never going to come. Even through that wasn’t the case but it actually turned out to be true because in this situation, trust was the main factor & even though Gaiti trusted Sameer & Sameer wasn’t deceiving her, Badar ended up being right because Sameer didn’t show up. One thing led to another & everything escalated in the worst manner, something that Gaiti must’ve not imagined in her wildest dreams.

Gaiti was brought in front of Iqbal but still, she didn’t choose to stay silent as she once again tried convincing her father that he should trust her. Iqbal who already was emotionally detached from Gaiti paid heed to others more than what his daughter wanted to say. That entire situation depicted Gaiti’s frustration, helplessness & anger perfectly; she was crying to be heard but no one was listening to her. I liked how Badar tried to tell the truth but then again, it wasn’t meant to be.

Badar & Gaiti got married & that marked the beginning of new phase of Badar’s life & new test for Gaiti. I felt for Gaiti a lot, she is someone who has never really experienced what the love of a father is & how it feels being valued & cherished. She has always seen herself being an afterthought; an emotional burden on Iqbal, that is why as much as it was hard for her to accept what happened, it was very easy for her to sever ties with all of them because they didn’t understand her when she wanted them to, the most. I felt bad that Gaiti lost her mother again, Nafeesa loved Gaiti like her own child & that bond was broken that too because of Iqbal. Nafeesa’s outburst was heartbreaking, she genuinely felt for Gaiti & could see how unfair Iqbal was in dealing with her. Another aspect that was uncovered in this episode of Do Bol was Firdous’ greed, the moment she found out that Jahan Ara had the ownership of the property & without her consent, Zafar will not get anything, she immediately changed her mind but obviously, put the entire blame on Gaiti to make herself look innocent.

I love Gaiti’s character. Even though she has had a tough life where she never felt valued, she has found out a way to fight her battles herself. Iqbal has done everything to lower her self-esteem & shatter her confidence but despite all of that, Gaiti knows how to stand up for herself. Usually in such a setting when things are never in your favor, no one musters up the courage to make their own decisions but Gaiti is not like that, she has turned her weakness into strength, is rightfully opinionated & doesn’t settle for whatever comes her way just like that.

Closing Thoughts – Perfection:

Overall, this episode of Do Bol was really well directed & everything was perfectly done. Be it smallest of details, all of them were taken care of & that completed the entire picture in a very effortless manner. I loved how when both Badar & Gauti got married & were sitting together in a taxi, unconsciously their outfits were color co-ordinated, making them look like a couple right from that moment onwards. Now the love story will begin where Badar will prove his love to Gaiti & she will actually get to know him. Do Bol has Sarwat Nazeer written all over it, it is amazing how she picks up simplest of scenarios & turns them into something magical. I can’t wait for the rest of the story to unfold. Hira Mani is outstanding in this drama, I have liked her since Preet Na Kariyo Koi days & it is good to see how she has come a long way & chooses her projects wisely. The OST of Do Bol is melodic & very nice. Looking forward to the rest of the journey. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Do Bol.

Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Inkaar Episode 2 Story Review – Living In The Past

This second episode of Inkaar gave further insight into the main characters. Hajra’s character is intriguing, her thoughts are interesting and her track has a really gloomy feel to it. While on the one hand her thoughts are rather unconventional, on the other hand she was also shown worrying about her reputation. Some of the scenes in this episode were somewhat preachy and the screenplay was different but at times not engaging enough.

Shayan and Hajra’s Track

Shayan’s determination to win Hajra over so that he could make her smile again was shown through different scenes in this episode. Shayan thought he was showing Hajra how much he loved her but Hajra felt uncomfortable around him. The dialogues about how a man can harass a woman just by his presence were quite interesting. These dialogues nicely summed up how Hajra felt while Shayan was around. We still don’t know what happened in Hajra’s past but it is quite evident that her thoughts are largely influenced by her past experiences. The screenplay reminds me of Muqabil because it makes the viewers constantly wonder what the backstory is. The leading lady’s thoughts and actions are determined by bitter experiences of the past and now there is a new man in her life who is willing to accept her for who she is. Shayan’s sketch of Hajra and his message clearly suggested that Hajra was a very different person before all of this happened.

Inkaar Episode 2 Story Review - Living In The Past
Hajra’s conversations with her friend give an insight into her thoughts but these conversations would have been so much more relatable if we actually got to see who this friend was! By the end of this episode Shayan and Hajra both left their jobs. When Hajra came back home she was not upset because she felt for Shayan but she was more concerned about how this incident made her exit from the school awkward. The only person Hajra listens to and wants to please is her father. By the end of this episode, her father made a decision which will change everything for Hajra. Will she end up getting married to man she does not even feel sorry for? Shayan’s role so far has nothing new to offer, it is a lot like many other characters Sami Khan has played in the past as well. So far, I haven’t warmed up to Shayan at all and I don’t find myself rooting for him.

Inkaar Episode 2 Story Review - Living In The Past

Overall Impression

This drama so far has an old and gloomy feel to it. Sami Khan’s makeover is turning out to be a major distraction. The good boy hairstyle and clean shave look does not look good on him. The grey foundation coupled with those black spots on his scalp (some kind of a hair treatment?) are also distracting. Sami Khan needed to look younger for this role but he actually looks too mature for it. Yumna Zaidi has played her role well and so far Hajra’s character is intriguing. Imran Ashraf will finally make an appearance in the next episode. The preview of the next episode also suggested that we might get to watch what happened in the past.

Khud Parast Episode 26 – Story Review

Opening Thoughts – Good Build Up:

Ohkay so, this episode of Khud Parast started wrapping the drama up. I think Team Khud Parast deserves a credit for doing justice to every phase of the story that was being shown at the time because they took their time & established & elaborated all the plots like they were meant to be. Even now I felt that we won’t get a rushed ending which will leave us asking for more because they took a decent time in bringing the story to this point where everything has started falling in its place.

The Time To Face The Consequences:

Even though I have always felt that I didn’t want to see Hanan & Beenish together but what I liked about this entire scenario was that Hanan didn’t just say yes to his marriage with Beenish because Asma pushed him to. Hanan observed Beenish, he learned more about her due to the interactions they had, he also realized that she had an answer to all of his problems, something that actually compelled Hanan to admit that he was impressed with Beenish & her approach towards life. Yes, Hanan did find it hard to accept that he could actually get settled with Beenish but his friend also directed him a bit & Hanan finally convinced himself. Asma conveyed it to Beenish & her inhibitions as well as concerns were totally understandable. She didn’t want to confirm the rumours that were spread about Hanan & her but then Asma did make her see the bigger picture where having Hanan by her side would secure her. I do think Beenish will say yes, but I still feel they both shouldn’t have ended up together.

Nazish is two-timing & she is cheating on Moeez. I guess he deserves this, Moeez will definitely come to his senses when he will lose everything & I do want to see him paying the price for being a bad husband, worst father & a selfish son. It seemed that Moeez was well aware of the kind of treatment Nazish was giving to his mother but he didn’t bother because all he wanted was the money. Sad.

Adeel had AIDS & he infected Uswa too but it was sickening to see him blaming her & then Hanan for all of it. Adeel very well knew that he had this disease but he still chose to get married to Uswa because he wanted to enjoy the remaining time that he had. What a twisted & mentally deranged character. Zarina passed away & her pain & suffering did force Uswa to realize that things are only going to get worse. Soon enough Uswa will find out that Adeel didn’t inform her about her mother’s illness, & no matter what she will say, her brothers will not forgive or believe her. Uswa really has brought herself to this limit because she chose to believe on those who weren’t sincere & overlooked the sincere advice of her mother & sister. Indeed, everyone has paid the price for all that they have done & Uswa is left to accept, admit & apologize for her wrongdoings.

Closing Thoughts – Looking Forward To The Last Episode:

This episode of Khud Parast was nice but it definitely was depressing. Whatever Uswa faced in the initial stages of her marriage was definitely not something that would’ve convinced her to continue with this relationship but yes, in order to call it off, she did cross the limit, therefore she is going to face the consequences. The time when Uswa used to give it back to Bakhtawar was when I liked her for being unapologetically selfish but then there came a moment when she really crossed all the boundaries & for that, she has to face the brunt. Definitely looking forward to the last episode. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Khud Parast.

Cheers,
