Syed Abbas Jafri Elected On PTI’s Ticket!

So, the election results are here and we have seen some major upsets in every province of Pakistan. After millions came out to vote and choose their next leader, Chairman Pakistan Tahreek e Insaaf, Imran Khan is our new Prime Minister. PTI has won with the majority in KPK and they may form a government in Punjab too. However, the most surprising result in the whole country is from the city of light Karachi. With the majority win on National Assembly as well as Provincial Assembly seats, PTI has emerged as the major political force in Karachi. Aamir Liaquat Hussain has won on PTI ticket from NA-245. Another person from the showbiz community who contested the election on PTI ticket was Syed Abbas Jafri who is a well-known model and he has won a seat in the Provincial Assembly of Sindh. He thanked the people from his constituency on Facebook:

Syed Abbas Jafri Elected On PTI's Ticket!

It is great to watch people from other walks of life to contest in elections and try to work for the betterment of Pakistan. Congratulations to Abbas on winning in PS-125 from our side!

Zun Mureed Episode 22 Review – A Way Out!

With this episode Tabbasum finally managed to make up her mind about what she needs to do next. Tabbasum’s brother talked to Fari hoping that she would help him convince Tabbasum to go back to Sajjad but his plan totally backfired. Fari’s character continues to be a breath of fresh air. Although the actress playing Fari’s role always wears more make-up than is necessary just like Rubina but the character itself is so positive and likeable that you can’t help but appreciate it. Fari suggested to Tabbasum that they should rent a place where they can keep the children with them too. This was a brilliant idea and with the help of Sidra, the execution was easier than Tabbasum ever thought it would be. While there are women like Mariam, Tabbasum’s bhabhi and mother in law who cannot see Tabbasum happy or growing, there are also women like Sidra and Fari in this play who are wise, sensitive and practical and very willing to help. Tabbasum’s character itself has a great deal going for it. I don’t remember watching another play in which the viewers got to see a woman’s journey like this. Everything is being covered in detail and logically. We have watched many dramas covering domestic abuse but most often the women are shown as victims and there is very little that they do to make the most of their situation. The focus is usually on the protagonist’s majburis and sufferings as opposed to showing how a woman can cope with such a situation with perseverance. Also, most often even if a woman manages to stand on her own it is usually in the last episode and sudden! I am also glad that there isn’t another man in Tabbasum’s life who could possibly be the “saviour”, she is fighting this war all on her own with the support of her sister and now Sidra. It is always good to see a female protagonist who is her own hero!

Zun Mureed Episode 22 Review - A Way Out!

Abid still wants Tabbasum to come back but he isn’t as rigid as he was before. Everything he did tonight was completely in line with his character. After listening to all the problems which Sajjad and the children have been going through, he did not only allow Mariam to visit and help but also went himself to convince Sajjad to bring Tabbasum back. Bi Jaan finally tried to tell Sajjad and Mariam the truth about Rubina but Sajjad did not even bother reading what she had written and Mariam did not believe. This part was really convincing as well. I was waiting for Bi Jaan to tell someone since she has seen what Rubina is capable of doing.

Once again the scenes covering what the children were going through were right on point. Sajjad is too busy trying to prove to himself that he can manage on his own and does not take anything the children say seriously. Children need more than just food and a place to live. More than anything else, they need someone who will be there for them all the time. Sajjad is definitely not the kind of parent who can do that! Tabbasum was the one who was looking after the kids before and now too she is the only one who can give her children the kind of love and attention they need.

This episode laid the foundations for what is coming ahead. In the next episode Rubina will execute her plan and the preview of the next episode also suggested that she might have given Bi Jaan more sedatives than she could tolerate. I am looking forward to what the next episode will have in store. Will Sajjad eventually realize his mistake or will Sajjad and Tabbasum go their separate ways for good? Waiting to find out!

Haara Dil Episode 16 Review — Sad & Slow

So episode 16 went down today and it was a rather slow one, nothing of consequence happened in it. Faraz got a lot of screen time in this episode and he did better in this episode as compared to the previous one. This whole Faraz and Abeer story arch is still too much to swallow, Momina had hardly spent five minutes with him and she decided to suggest the idea of him marrying Abeer. It is as if Abrar and Shagufta never warned Abeer and Momina about strangers especially the strangers who propose marriage on the very first meeting. We also got to see Fehmi and Zeba bad mouth Abeer and Momina since such “ameer khandan ke larkay” are interested in both of them, I miss the old Fehmi and Zeba who were less toxic and more neutral.

In other news Qasid sees Abeer hanging out with Faraz and like any other man with fragile masculinity he runs to his mother figure Fehmi Khala and whines about how he can not marry a woman who has pre-marital affairs with guys. Upon further discussion it is revealed that Abrar was pretty smart and he left this house to his wife Shagufta and in case of her death to his daughters. Qasid then comes up with the idea that since Momina is so “shareef” and owns the house too he should marry her but while Fehmi and Qasid were busy conspiring Momina was eavesdropping and she heard everything.

Haara Dil Episode 16 Review --- Sad & Slow

On Fizza and Arham’s front Fizza’s patience is running thin she probably thought that things between them will become better after the engagement but to her disappointment Arham is still the same old distant guy. It is understandable that Fizza is a privileged and very admirable woman and she probably has had everything in life that she has ever wanted and Arham is nothing more than another thing on her Bucket List that she has to own and she mistakes it for love but it is so unwise of both Amtul and Fizza to expect Arham to just forget the love of his life over the time span of a few days and fall in love with Fizza.

First of all why would any woman want the guy she loves to so easily get over the woman he so dearly loved. If he gets over her so easily what guarantee is there that he won’t fall out of love with you even more easily. But that’s not the character’s fault this one can be blamed on writers who still treat love like teenage infatuations or madness nothing in between.

Another thing that was unfair on Momina’s part but then again can be blamed on writers is her passive aggressiveness towards Arham and Afaan. Momina knows that she told Amtul about Abrar’s death and it is obvious that Amtul didn’t tell anyone so instead of being bitter about it she needs to inform them moreover she played victim in front of Abeer complaining about how Arham got engaged. Arham was ready to accept Momina with Sami but she refused and yet here she is complaining. It is not totally unbelievable people do that but the way Momina has been portrayed so far this is not like her.

Now that Momina is aware of Fehmi’s intentions she has become careful, as of Faraz he still comes off as a shady character, there’s still too much to be unfolded in this story so stay tuned.

HUM TV Defends its Decision to Hold Awards Ceremony During Election Week

HUM TV has found itself in a lot of controversy lately. The news of celebrities leaving for Toronto right before the General Elections did not go down so well with the audience. Many people, including celebrities like Farhan Saeed and Imran Abbas, expressed their disappointment with such an irresponsible behavior shown by their fellow celebrities. Many people are blaming HUM TV for scheduling the Award Ceremony at such a time and they have decided to boycott HUM TV. This led to HUM TV issuing an official statement.

Celebrities With Their Thumbs Up After Voting

Election 2018 has been all the talk for a while now. This election was one of it’s kind for so many reasons, ever since the election 2013 the political awareness in the general public has increased massively. After the Panama case and the disqualification of President of Pakistan’s biggest political party Mian Mohammad Nawaz Sharif people of the Republic of Pakistan have for the first time seen hope that things can get better. That everyone including the Prime Minister of this country is not above law and that is probably why the turn out this election has been massive.

Just like general public the entertainment fraternity was equally excited for the elections. The Hum Awards controversy aside the ones who were in Pakistan were super enthusiastic about the elections, they not only voted but also posted their pictures after voting and encouraged everyone to go vote without thinking who wins and who doesn’t. Here’s how the celebrities used their star power to encourage the masses to go out and vote.

Meri Gurya Episodes 7 & 8 Review – Truly Upsetting!

These two episodes of Meri Gurya covered the tragedy which was bound to happen but definitely not one which the viewers were looking forward to. Tonight’s episode opened with Dabeer telling his mother that Safina was the one who gave Samreen poison. His mother would have fallen for this lie if Samreen didn’t tell her that she took the poison herself. It was difficult to believe that someone like Safina had fallen in love with Dabeer so much that she would brush something as big as this under the carpet. This recent development in the story was unconvincing as well as disappointing. While I understand why someone like Safina would be interested in fixing a man like Dabeer, it is difficult to relate to the fact that she is still willing to live with him knowing that he is capable of killing her. The reason she gave was that she wanted to find out why he did not want to stay with her and it wasn’t convincing enough! Shehnaz and Shahmir’s conversation however was well written and brilliantly acted out. Shehnaz is an intelligent woman who refused to fall for the “blackmail” and tried to do whatever she could to stop this marriage from taking place.

Abida was a sweet and innocent girl whose mother did everything she could to protect her but the second Shehnaz was a little distracted because of her own troubles, Dabeer the monster took advantage of the situation. This basically goes to show that you just cannot protect your children enough especially when the monster who kidnaps and kills children might be a seemingly harmless neighbor who doesn’t have to try very hard to harm your child. This entire incident was covered in a painfully realistic manner. Dabeer had been planning this for a long time now therefore all he needed was an opportunity which he got when Abida’s father was busy getting married to a girl old enough to be his daughter.

Meri Gurya Episodes 7 & 8 Review - Truly Upsetting!

The scene which covered Shehnaz’s frame of mind once she found out that her daughter was missing was truly distressing. Sania Saeed is a remarkable actress who did complete justice to these scenes. The desperation with which Shehnaz looked for her daughter and her condition when she found out that Abida really was gone was extremely heart-wrenching. While watching all these scenes the reality hit home that it takes only a few seconds for something like this to happen. Mohsin Abbas Haider yet again performed brilliantly throughout. Dabeer knows only too well how to cover his tracks. Shehnaz’s mother in law’s attitude while she was desperately looking for her daughter went to show that she couldn’t care less. Right now, for her the most important thing was to get her son married so that he could give her a grandson. Safina did whatever she could to help Shehnaz not knowing that the person she was married to and sympathized with was the culprit. The callous attitude of the police was also covered in this episode, another aspect of our society we are a little too familiar with.

This was one of the most upsetting episodes of Meri Gurya so far. The preview of the next episode suggested that Abida will meet an end similar to that of her friend. Shehnaz is surely not the kind of person who will let someone get away with something like this therefore I am surely looking forward to how she will fight for her daughter. Shehnaz’s character is extremely likeable and Sania Saeed’s performance is impressive as usual. The drama will only get better once the focus is entirely on the three central characters. Mohsin Abbas Haider and Sania Saeed owned their characters completely tonight and their performances were outstanding.

Yasir Hussain’s Statement Makes Awards vs Elections War Uglier!

Hum Awards are being held soon and most of our entertainment industry went to Canada for the event. Singer-Actor Farhan Saeed expressed his disappointment on this as he wanted more and more Pakistanis to vote. Imran Abbas also showed disappointment as he expressed his views:

Though he did not target anyone specifically, Yasir apparently took it to heart and had a very irrational reply:

Teefa In Trouble – Film Review

Teefa In Trouble – Film Review

Writers: Ali Zafar/ Ahsan Rahim/Danyal Zafar
Director: Ahsan Rahim
Producers: Ali Zafar & Ayesha Fazli (Lightingale Productions)
Cast: Ali Zafar, Maya Ali, Mehmood Aslam, Javed Sheikh, Sofia Khan, Faisal Qureshi, Nayyar Ejaz, Mah-e-Nur Haider, Seemi Raheal, Asma Abbas & others.

 

    *SPOILER ALERT*

 

Teefa In Trouble is an action, comedy and romantic film which focuses primarily on the main protagonist Teefa, played by Ali Zafar, who is a Lahori gangster with fighting skills like that of a superhero. While Balu Mahi celebrated the beauty of Lahore, Teefah In Trouble makes the most of “Butt” and “Sheikh” jokes and can easily be termed as a mix of Punjab Nahi Jaungi, Balu Mahi and Na Maloom Afraad 2. When Teefa’s boss Butt Sahab, played immaculately by Mehmood Aslam, asks him to kidnap his friend’s daughter Anya (Maya Ali) from Poland so that he can get her married to his son, then that is when Teefa gets into trouble in many different ways. Anya belongs to a rich family but she is not happy with her life because she feels that her father (Javed Sheikh) gives more time to his business and step mother than her. She goes out looking for adventure on the day her father has planned her wedding and that’s when Teefa and Anya’s journey starts. This part of the film reminded me of Balu Mahi although the circumstances were different but it definitely had a been-there-seen-that feel to it. Like Punjab Nahi Jaungi, this is the story of a modern girl who ends up falling in love with a very desi munda!

The jokes have a Na Maloom Afraad and Actor In Law feel to them. The action however is the best part of the film and is something we haven’t seen in a Pakistani film yet; that is definitely a first! Some of the jokes are hilarious and they keep you entertained but there are also times when you need a break from the never- ending comic dialogues. Anya and Teefa’s journey is fun and happening but it isn’t convincing and heart-warming. Ali Zafar is absolutely brilliant as the action hero who doesn’t always have swag but definitely has the moves. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no on-screen chemistry between the leading actors because of which the romantic element of the film falls completely flat. Maya Ali is seen in a completely different avatar in the film, her ultra-modern look is nothing like the one she sports in dramas or is seen in otherwise. There are some scenes in which she looks exceptionally pretty but there are also a lot of scenes in which her make-up and overall look isn’t too impressive. Maya Ali is cute and likeable as the adventurous Anya but she doesn’t have the same screen presence which many of the other Pakistani actresses have on the big screen. The producers and writers deserve credit for giving this female protagonist plenty of screen time unlike Na Maloom Afraad in which the entire focus was on the male leads.

Teefa In Trouble - Film Review

The action scenes are brilliantly directed and executed on screen, Ali Zafar truly impresses and the camera work is phenomenal. The romantic scenes however have done-to-death and mediocre written all over them. The visual representation  of the songs too fails to impress. The songs have variation and they have been composed and sung beautifully but the picturization falls short especially when you compare it to Punjab Nahi Jaungi and Balu Mahi. The production house hasn’t invested a lot in giving the film a more visually pleasing look. Also, Teefa’s role is very desi but his overall look is inspired from Hollywood. However, As an actor and singer Ali Zafar has surely given this film everything he had. Javed Sheikh is turning out to be one of the most extraordinary actors in films who always leaves his mark. Mehmood Aslam played his role superbly too, his comic timing is impressive. Faisal Qureshi is a natural at doing comedy therefore it doesn’t come as a surprise that he fits perfectly in the role given to him. Mah-e-Nur Haider and Marhoom Ahmad Bilal are a pleasant and refreshing surprise in Teefa In trouble.

Teefa In Trouble’s producers managed to avoid an item number but the film overall has a modern feel to it. Teefa In Trouble could have been far more impressive if it was visually pleasing as well. The film drags in the end like many other recent films. Also, I wish Pakistani filmmakers would stop adding forced social messages in every film! Teefah In Trouble is an entertaining film but if you are looking for a solid plot which doesn’t defy logic and clichés then this is not the movie for you. If you want to watch an action film which will also make you laugh then Teefa In Trouble film is a must-watch!

Lashkara Episode 13 Review – Phenomenal x 10!

Wow! What an episode filled with such such such brilliant performances. It surely was a treat to watch & I found myself spell-bound, totally glued to the screen because I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Hats off to all the actors & the director for bringing out these emotions on-screen in such a real & convincing manner!

Feeka was only trying to help Bubbly but he didn’t know that his behavior with which he approached everything related to Bubbly will land him as well as her in deep trouble. Feeka just wanted everything in & around Bubbly’s life to be perfect, hence the haste. It was more like that he had set a task of outdoing himself every single time there was anything related to Bubbly, that is why just a mere mention of a loose hook of Bubbly’s chain made him restless. In front of Bubbly, Feeka wanted to be like that magician who fixed everything in a jiffy & that is why, he never really gave Bubbly a chance to just be. Obviously, it made Feeka a fantastic husband but then it also caused problems for Bubbly especially in a setting where someone was on a look out for a little window to throw a stone & destroy their picture perfect of a life.

All Bubbly did was request Nikki to give what belonged to her as she just wanted to stop Feeka from questioning her further as she knew she would run out of lies but then what happened was shocking. Feeka couldn’t stop himself from getting involved & then what Nikki did was unforgivably cruel. That moment where Bubbly, without even explaining herself walked out of that conversation was so upsetting, it just showed that all this while she was walking on eggshells but now she knew that it was not going to work. The way she just left showed that even she knew that she had lost the most precious thing in her life; her relationship with her husband.

One might definitely think that Feeka didn’t truly love Bubbly to blindly trust her, this is the thought that crossed my mind too but after hearing everything that Feeka had to say, it just got elaborated how he had such a low self-esteem, how he had zero confidence in himself because of which he easily accepted that Nikki was telling him the truth. Feeka didn’t doubt Bubbly, it’s just that he was so full of doubts about himself that he just couldn’t believe that Bubbly will stay loyal to him. The moment Feeka stood in front of the mirror with Bubbly, it just explained everything, it unveiled all the complexes, all those fears Feeka had ever since he got married to Bubbly where he knew that she was better than him in every single way yet she chose to become his wife. Then all this took me back to Feeka’s overall attitude with Bubbly; his enthusiasm, his keenness in dealing with everything related to her because in other words, by doing all of that he was compensating Bubbly for settling for a man like him, he was basically trying to make her so so so happy that even for once she doesn’t think that she got married to someone she didn’t deserve. So, basically Feeka didn’t mistrust Bubbly, all the doubts that he ever had just resurfaced making it easier for him to believe again that Bubbly didn’t deserve him & may be that is why she wanted an escape from the life where she had to live with a man like Feeka!

I must say I love these sorts of dramas where the writers build up the entire situation & use it as a stepping stone for the actual scenario. What happened in this episode & the way Feeka reacted made it easy for me to understand what he was saying & feeling as I immediately connected the dots & realized why he used to be this sort of a husband to Bubbly. He was just proving a point to himself as well as her – all the time. Beautifully written!

Another powerful scene that I loved was between Bubbly & Nasreen. Bubbly didn’t bother saying a word to Nikki because she knew she would not understand but I loved how she didn’t stay quiet in front of Nasreen & reminded her of the business deal that she did & the way she heartlessly treated her as a commodity. Bubbly didn’t want to say all of this but she did as Nasreen had the power & an authority to stop what was happening by telling Feeka the truth but she chose not to!

Well, Bubbly came back & only Saima could see that something was awfully wrong – things just weren’t right. I wish Kulsoom could see that too. Also, I am glad that the writer has shown this way of approaching the news of pregnancy, that it can be & should be celebrated but I am just wondering if it would have, in any way changed the dynamics of the story if Kulsoom had kept the news to herself? I am saying this because usually in such households this thing is definitely kept private especially in such initial stages. Also, Kulsoom didn’t get a confirmation from Bubbly first & based on an assumption she just went ahead, not only told her husband but announced it in the entire neighbourhood that Bubbly was expecting a child!?!?! Let’s see how this part will play out, apart from bringing regrets & shame Kulsoom’s way & more mental pressure Bubbly’s way.

I loved watching this episode, it is definitely a treat seeing such a well-written script acted & directed out such a brilliant way. I am definitely falling short of words for Ushna Shah, Mohsin Abbas Haider & the actress playing the role of Nikki, they literally blew the audience away with their phenomenal phenomenal phenomenal & effortless acting. Well done guys. Please share your thoughts!

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Ishq Tamasha Episode 20 Review-On Repeat!

Watching this episode of Ishq Tamasha was like watching an episode from the very start all over again. Mirha is back at Chachi Jaan’s house and she has once again stated degrading her. Mirha is back to being an irrelevant orphan with her relatives putting her down in every second scene and she herself behaving like a slave. She has also started braiding her hair again and is out looking for a job.

The equation between Mirha and Wahaj is extremely unsettling too. He is proposing her and trying to patch up. While Mirha is giving out mixed signals like she would forgive him in the future. A man who assassinates your character does not have faith in your love and loyalty should be a given a clear shut up call. What kind of a girl is Mirha after all? She was bossing everyone around in a house where she was not related to anyone and she is being a slave in front of the people who destroyed her life and reputation. She knows she has to support herself and had considered going to a shelter in the past then why is she taking all this crap? Why tolerate Aqeela’s behaviour and not call her out on her own daughter’s missives.

Ishq Tamasha Episode 20 Review-On Repeat!

Rushna is still playing games like the very first day. She is constantly blaming Mirha for Mehrab’s rude behaviour. She knows Arham is dead and she is still blaming Mirha, she must have used some common sense and figured out that a person whose brother you had an affair with will naturally not warm up to you. Aqeela is her accomplice in every plan and she is trying to win over Mehrab with English food “Pasta” (which is Italian), thus showing lack of common sense again.

This episode again hinted about Mehrab’s feelings for Mirha. He must have taken a stand by marrying her and providing her security when she was aimlessly wandering in his house. He is not really giving a shut up call to Rushna which she deserves.

Palwasha track is a total drag and maybe they are trying to make 2 or 3 more episodes out of it. All in all, we are back to square one with bechari Mirha at Aqqela’s house, Rushna running after her fantasies and a clueless spineless Wahaj.

Visaal Episode 17 Review – The Revelation!

Ohkay so, this episode marked the turning point in the story & things are going to get even more interesting as all the characters will be pushed to their limits & we will see the new reactions amidst the chaos!

Pari got rejected as per Akram’s plan because the suitor & his family got to know about Pari’s stained character & all that happened in her life in the past from someone. Akram thought he did score a win because everything unfolded just the way he wanted to. Akram surely took the help of the best, who he knew would make sure that everything happens according to his wishes & Khala took the job assigned to her quite seriously. I must say, the conversation between Akram & Khala was quite amusing & what made it even better were their expressions.

Pari was struggling, pretty much what she has been doing ever since Taimur walked in & out of her life. To add more to her woes, she got rejected & this time around even Molvi Ghufran felt dejected thinking about all the hardships that life was throwing her way. Molvi & his wife were unable to figure out who was behind all this but I am just wondering if they will ever learn the truth about Akram being responsible for all this?

Well, Naheed was unhappy, she was furious, at Pari who gave in & then at her mother who just wanted to get rid of Pari. Naheed’s reaction after finding out everything was basically because she felt helpless while still feeling guilty as she knows that she is responsible for everything to have ever gone wrong in Pari’s life till date. Despite wanting to, Naheed found herself helpless as she couldn’t help Pari the way she would have liked, also, she just couldn’t cope up with the burden that she had on her heart, especially now that she was getting to see the consequences of her doing!

Akram finally confessed everything in front of Naheed. He thought he will be able to win it by pressurizing Naheed as he had this huge secret in his hand against her to blackmail & threathen her. Akram actually thought things would work in his favor but I guess he surely underestimated Naheed. Naheed is someone who can go to any extreme, she has done it before by stabbing her best friend the way she never would have imagined, so it is so expected that she can go to another extreme too by ruining her own life to at least save Pari’s from getting ruined further. Akram probably failed to understand that & he thought that Naheed will stay quiet in fear of being exposed but little does he know that Naheed most probably doesn’t care anymore. She has felt guilty for way too long so this will probably serve as a push & pave a way for her to do something to compensate for the pain that Pari has endured because of her. It was quite interesting to see how Akram approached this entire matter, I guess he got carried away a bit too soon whereas if he had played this game a little more wisely, he would have controlled Naheed the way he wanted to. I guess because Akram riled Naheed up & because he let her know that he is well aware of what she did, that will push Naheed to confess about her wrongdoings. Naheed was only quiet all this while because she assumed that nobody knew about what she did but now when she found out that Akram knows what she did, she wouldn’t care much!

This drama is super intense & interesting plus I also like how at times it is super fun & amusing too. I love the background score they have used in Akram’s scenes, it fits & goes so well with the mood & intentions of Akram. This drama surely is an intelligent piece of work in terms of writing, direction & acting. Please share your thoughts!

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,

Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka Episode 4 And 5 Review-The Non-Marriage Marriage!

A good thing happened in Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka when they showed the procedure of divorce. It didn’t end in a second and they showed how there are laws and rules for such a big transition in anyone’s life. Dania finally knows that she is not divorced. Arman who was constantly being the whinny boy actually proved himself to be a whinny boy. He did not even sign the divorce papers and all the time he was trying to get Dania to move out on him. Dania cried for days, went to see a lawyer but did not see the divorce papers. Why? This is a mystery that will never be answered.

Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka Episode 4 And 5 Review-The Non-Marriage Marriage!

Things were about to go uphill. But Arman’s father came up with the honeymoon idea. And like any normal couple who wants to take a break to work on their relationship, who tries to patch things up, Arman and Dania did not do that. They go out and instead of booking another room in the hotel with Arman’s baap ka paisa and hide things comfortably, they decide to live on the streets of Islamabad. It has become a confusion for me that how Dania really is? In an effort to make her look helpless, they have made her look plain DUMB! First of all, there is a hostel who is not helping their student because she is married? Kahan paye jate hain ye hostels? Why are they not banned yet? Well, our sweet, too innocent Dania goes off with someone she does not know to an unknown place. Maybe Dania does not watch television or use social media, the kind of confidence this girl has depicted that. The worst parts were the scenes after Dania was caught up in that brothel. Hareem should have looked more worried in those scenes. She looked too chill for such a scenario. The emotions were so weakly portrayed in the scenes that they seemed like a joke.

Another DUMBO is Arman, how can anyone, man or woman drop a girl off to someplace and does not wait for her to get in? Bacha UK ka kamm, Mars ka zyada laga iss baat pe. Crimes against women are not only confined to South Asia or Pakistan to be more specific. They happen all over the world with a very huge frequency and even children know about this these days. Arman being a grown up should have known that. And his whole Abb kya karna hai infront of his friend was out of this world ridiculous. Alamdar is extremely weak in the dialogue department but his expressions were even worse in this one. A guy whose wife is missing should look worried like he is going to die in his next breath and not like he has lost his candy bar.

Ali Rehman Khan is still playing a supporting role. His lead characteristics have not started appearing yet. Rucksar Naaz also showed up but it was just her introduction yet and we will have to watch further to know how she performs.

This non-marriage marriage has become too twisted to be handled nicely. Let’s see how they are going to treat a scenario of a girl reaching a brothel as this should be handled sensitively and not forgotten like it never happened.

Kayseria & Bareeze Get Backlash After Waleed Zaman’s Remarks On Harassment

After Nueplex protesters gathered in Lahore too to protest against Ali Zafar and sexual harassment. While the protesters chanted “Boycott Ali Zafar” outside Cinestar Lahore Kayseria’s creative director Waleed Zaman showed up there to watch the movie. A video soon started circulating where a protester asks Waleed why he is watching Teefa in Trouble and he replies “Because we support sexual harassment of women.” He said that on record not once not twice but three times and every time he raised his hands as he said so.

Later the creative director of Kayseria and son of Bareeze’s owner Hameed Zaman; Waleed Zaman issued a statement where he claimed that he said this because he was upset as his wife was being harassed and threatened by the protesters. While the video clearly shows none of the said “harassment” happened.

https://twitter.com/haseemuzzaman/status/1020444201169948672

Soon after this Boycott Kayseria and Bareeze hashtags started appearing to show the privileged lot that their actions come with consequences.

https://twitter.com/RidhaAlii/status/1020376416553263106?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1020376416553263106&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.dawn.com%2Fnews%2F1180493

If this is how privileged and well educated lot of Pakistan thinks then what hope do we have for common unprivileged and uneducated people. Kayseria’s upper management not only needs to take serious actions after Waleed Zaman’s insensitive remarks it also needs to show how there is accountability of each person’s actions irrespective of their social status if they want to maintain the integrity of the brand because after all Kayseria is a WOMEN clothing brand, such mentality should be dealt with zero tolerance policy.

Woh Mera Dil Tha Episode 15 Review – Interesting Character Development

The character development in this play has to be the most interesting element of the story so far. Naina’s character in particular has evolved in such a manner that you can’t help but like her. Her conversation with Zaid’s sister today revealed why all of a sudden a girl who had all the luxuries in the world was so satisfied living in a house which did not meet her standards in any way. Like all of Faiza Iftikhar’s heroines Naina’s character too is turning out to be an interesting one and all the characters in this play are flexible in their own way. It is always good watching a play in which the characters are not black and white especially when their flaws are more appealing than off putting! Zaid is one such character, which doesn’t annoy you but is actually amusing!

Another interesting part of these latest developments was the change in Naina’s father. In this episode, he was genuinely worried about his daughter after watching her stand in the scorching heat waiting for the bus. Although, he is not willing to get in touch with Naina but the way he feels now is very different from what he felt when he told Naina that he never wanted to see her again. This shift in his stance made perfect sense and everything he did to “help” his daughter was also convincing. He asked Zaid’s father to work for him again but he refused. It is funny watching everyone give Zaid so much credit! For once Zaid is being applauded as a hero and he isn’t going to let anyone take that away from him. Zaid’s attitude towards Naina has changed because he feels that God “compensated” him.

Woh Mera Dil Tha Episode 15 Review - Interesting Character Development

Zaid continued to flirt with Sonia because he has not accepted his relationship with Naina even now. He is enjoying all the perks he is getting but he still cannot imagine accepting Naina as his wife. Arham is having a difficult time accepting the fact that Naina got married to someone out of her own consent and he is planning to come back. Khadija’s scene was the most annoying scene of this episode mainly because of the actor playing the role! Zaid’s mother is easily convinced but deep down she is a good person. Zaid’s father’s character is extremely likeable; he is wise, practical and caring. He is the only one who doesn’t judge Naina and gives her the credit she deserves. Sami Khan and Madiha Imam yet again nailed their respective characters and this around all the scenes were short and to the point too. For the first time Naina’s character was more appealing than that of Zaid. I am looking forward to Naina’s journey now and already feeling for her. She thinks she is finally with people she can trust but eventually she will end up getting hurt once again!

This episode was interesting and I am looking forward to the next episode. I hope that the story continues to move forward at this pace in the upcoming weeks too.

Zun Mureed Episode 21 Review – Meaningful and Relevant!

Every episode of Zun Mureed covers one day in the lives of its characters therefore while every minute point is covered in detail, the story doesn’t move forward quickly. What I love about this play is that it never loses focus, it can get repetitive but it is never pointless which is why Zun Mureed continues to be one of my favorite plays. Tonight, for the first time it seemed like Sajjad was missing Tabbasum and for once thinking about her didn’t make him as mad as it did before. In the previous few episodes, whenever Sajjad thought about Tabbasum, the phone call to the police and everything he had to go through as a result of that phone call outweighed all those years Tabbasum had dedicated to him and his house. This time around however, he could look at things more “objectively”. The reasons for this were many but the most important reason was that he was tired!! Tabbasum always supported Sajjad in every way therefore now that he was going through the most difficult period of his life not only was she not there by his side but their marriage was about to come to an end too. I truly appreciate the way these scenes were covered, the viewers were kept guessing what Sajjad’s next move was going to be and whatever he did showed how he felt. The director and Omair Rana both did a really good job translating Sajjad’s feelings on screen without any dialogues.

Sajjad wasn’t angry enough to break the photo frame with his and Tabbasum’s wedding photograph but he was also not ready to give Tabbasum a phone call and tell her that he was wrong! Tabbasum’s bhabhi and Sajjad’s mother played a major role in pushing him to the point where he thought he needed to do whatever it took to show Tabbasum that he was the boss! These flashback scenes were used effectively to show how their relationship went downhill. All these scenes showed that Tabbasum was always supportive and calm.

Zun Mureed Episode 21 Review - Meaningful and Relevant!

Rubina’s track finally moved forward too. Once again the viewers were shown how Rubina was teaching the children things which were getting them into trouble. Her boyfriend also figured out where she lived and decided to pay her a visit. The actress playing Rubina’s role is also performing superbly. Many of us can relate to everything she does and the ways in which a maid can impact the children negatively. The message which the writer is sending out is clear and I truly appreciate it – a maid cannot replace a mother!

Bi Jaan was more agitated than before in this episode and Abid seemed calmer. If Bi Jaan realizes how wrong she was everything will automatically fall into place. If Sajjad accepts his mistake and decides to mend his ways, Tabbasum will be more than happy to come back since she doesn’t have an inflated ego but her problem is that she cannot compromise on certain things and right now Sajjad is not willing to accept that. Tabbasum’s bhabhi decided to give the school principal a call when her daughters came home and yet again told her what Miss Tabbasum had taught them. It is quite obvious why lessons like these will get such a reaction from someone who is continuously trying to control other people’s lives. Once again, I felt for the children more than anyone else in this episode. They have no one to turn to because now they cannot even call their mother. Tabbasum thinks that her children don’t need her any more but that didn’t sound good enough. I hope she tries to reach out to her children once again.

The preview of the next episode showed Rubina stealing from Sajjad’s drawer. I am waiting for the time when Sajjad will finally get a wake up call! I truly appreciate everything this drama has to offer and look forward to it every week.

Koi Chand Rakh Episode 1 – Review!

Ohkay so, the production of iDream Productions, direction of Siraj ul Haq & the writing of Maha Malik; Koi Chand Rakh probably the most anticipated drama of recent times commenced on ARY Digital last night. The first episode introduced the characters & their personalities in a detailed manner & despite the plot not being new the drama still got a decent opening.

Zain (Imran Abbas) is your typical rich spoilt brat – the only son of the family & the eldest to a sister Sobi. Zain’s Father Ibrar does think his son needs to understand his responsibilities but his Mother (Asma Abbas) always finds a way to defend & protect her son, probably being the reason why Zain has become so stubborn, knowing that he will have things his way eventually!

Koi Chand Rakh Episode 1 - Review!

Rabail (Ayeza Khan) is a doctor who lives with her Uncle’s family because her parents passed away when she was young. Rabail’s uncle’s family consists of his wife Nafeesa, his daughter Nishal & his son Umair (Muneeb Butt).

Koi Chand Rakh Episode 1 - Review!

Rabail is this perfect young girl who is a good doctor, is like an ideal elder sister to Nishal & a guide & mentor to Umair. Rabail insists that no matter what, one should stay true & loyal to the job at hand, that is why she feels passionate about her medical profession & constantly reminds Umair about his education & future too.

Rabail came to her uncle’s place when she was quite young & she was the first girl other than Nishal that Umair grew up with & he just didn’t realize when his respect & affection turned into love for Rabail. Just the thought of Rabail going away after her marriage with someone else shook his ground because he couldn’t imagine Rabail not being in his life anymore. Umair’s mother Nafeesa does feel a little suspicious about Umair’s equation with Rabail but her husband insists that things will get back to normal once Rabail will leave after getting married.

Zain lands himself in hot water after the mother of one of his girlfriend’s shows up at his doorstep, obviously, Zain’s mother defends & protects her son but this entire scenario doesn’t sit well with Ibrar. Zain’s mother typically suggests that getting him married will instil this sense of responsibility in him which his parents failed to do so & also stop him from wasting his time like this. Zain demands that he will only get married to a beautiful girl & won’t settle for anything less.

Ibrar meets Rabail at her uncle’s place & that’s when he speaks about Zain’s proposal for her. Zain who has already fallen for Nishal assumes that her name is Dr. Rabail because that’s what she says jokingly while volunteering for the blood donation camp in her university. Things will obviously become complex due to this misunderstanding but then at this point everything seems a little too predictable. Umair confesses his love to Rabail & she on her own struggles to comprehend when & how did Umair start having such feelings for her. Rabail not only gets disturbed but also feels embarrassed because for her Umair was just like a younger brother & nothing else. Nafeesa does overhear them but I am not sure if she will spare Rabail by solely blaming Umair for crossing the line.

Overall, the first episode was fairly decent with just the right kind of direction & acting. I wouldn’t call it outstanding though but something that can be tuned to. The OST is very typical & not appealing at all, I so wish they don’t overuse it in the remaining episodes as I don’t see it growing on me either. Ayeza Khan did well as Rabail & so did Imran Abbas as Zain. Muneeb Butt was good as Umair too & he conveyed the feelings of a young guy in love who fears losing it, perfectly as well. The girl playing the role of Nishal acted effortlessly as well. To be honest, after Khasara, I am kind of sceptical after finding out that Koi Chand Rakh has been written by Maha Malik, not too sure what to expect but let’s see. Please share your thoughts.

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Haara Dil Episode 15 Review — The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

So episode fifteen as expected was brimming with emotions so much that it brought more than just one tear to my eyes. The good part of this episode was Abeer, oh Abeer that gorgeous gorgeous actress is so great. From the moment she learned that her father is dead till the end of this episode it was pure one woman show. Abeer sure stole the show today. Her sadness so relate-able so real that she forces you to feel her pain and cry with her. From her trembling hands holding her father’s picture to her shaking voice it was all screaming what an amazing actor this woman is.

The bad part of this episode was the introduction of Faraz. Firstly the actor portraying Faraz was mediocre secondly the whole story seemed so rushed and unreal and unrelate-able. Apparently this tour is the first time Faraz and Abeer are meeting but the writers thought this was enough to spring a romantic relationship between the two. People start with “I like you” followed by “I love you” which are rarely followed by “will you marry me?” but here the guy starts with “Hey we have just met and this is crazy but will you marry me?” and Abeer says something even crazier “This is weird we have just met but yeah sure”.

I understand that the writters did not want to establish that Abeer was already in a relationship when she left for this trip and in no way they wanted to imply that Abeer left on this trip and defied her father for this guy because that would have played really bad for the character. I understand the writer’s need to stay true to the essence of Abeer’s character and yet introduce Faraz somehow because he will be playing key role from now on but I still believe his introduction could have been a bit better and believable.

In the ugly part of today’s episode we got to see step mom acting like a real step mom now because she doesn’t have to even play the good mom anymore. She not only bad mouths Abeer in front of everyone she also looks for legal documents in Abrar’s room suggestive of her true intentions to probably own the house legally as his widow.

Faraz as I mentioned before will be playing a key role since he is rich and powerful he can surely use that influence to find Abrar’s murderers but all that will depend on his intentions too. So far it has’t been revealed whether Faraz here is really a hero or the anti hero.

The Afaans didn’t get any screen time in this episode. They probably still do not know that Abrar is dead. Whether realizing that he is dead will make Arham reconsider his decision of marrying Fizza or not is something we wouldn’t be finding out any time soon.

Protest At ‘Teefa In Trouble’ Premiere

Boycott Teefa In Trouble has been in order ever since the harassment allegations against the actor-singer Ali Zafar. The idea behind the boycott is that harassment allegations alone are not enough, naming and shaming alone is not enough, the sexual predators need to be hurt where it hurts them the most and what hurts more than losing money.

Ali Zafar was supposed to be at KFC last night for promotions but when he reached there he was met with protesters chanting “Boycott Teefa In Trouble” instead.

Internet had a field day with Ali Zafar’s picture with the shell shocked expression on his face albeit.

The protest last night was not the end of it, Teefa in Trouble was scheduled to premiere tonight and protesters have gathered outside Nueplex as we speak to protest against Ali Zafar.

Although nothing has been proved against the actor yet the fact remains that he was accused by Meesha Shafi and seven other women. The case is in court right now as Ali Zafar states he will fight this in the court of law and not on social media.

Protest At 'Teefa In Trouble' Premiere

Teefa In Trouble is the most expensive Pakistani movie to date it also happens to be a family project it was co-written by Daniyal Zafar and co-produced by Ayesha Fazli with Ali Zaffar. In the wake of MeToo will Teefa in Trouble do the expected business or not is yet to be seen.
