Gohar Rasheed Has A Special Request To Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry!

Everyone is in election fever right now. Some are celebrating the victory of their favourite party while others are just in despair. However, one thing which looks quite clear now is that Imran Khan is our next Prime Minister. One more thing which Pakistanis can never let go is their love for Imran Khan and ex-wife Jemima.

Gohar Rasheed Has A Special Request To Pakistan's Foreign Ministry!

Jemima and Imran are for sure goals because of the way they have maintained respect for each other and the way Jemima has always supported Imran even after the couple parted ways. For these reasons, Pakistanis always have loved Jemima. Now, with the oath-taking ceremony approaching, Gohar Rasheed has requested foreign ministry to invite Jemima as she has been a friend to Pakistan. Here is what he said:

Moammar Rana Asks For Apparent Pending Fee From Azaadi’s Producer!

Moammar Rana made his comeback in Pakistani films with Azaadi. The film which released this Eid ul Fitr was based on the war of Independence in Kashmir and had Sonya Hussyn in the lead role. Azaadi performed better than expectations at the box office. Now, Rana is claiming that he has not been fully compensated. This is what he posted:

Moammar Rana Asks For Apparent Pending Fee From Azaadi's Producer!

Irfan Malik, however, has denied these claims. He posted a response on Facebook too:

Hello All! Hope u are doing well. Imran Khan said it right! we are a nation of donkeys and start following and commenting on a narrative or issue we know nothing about. Quran says when u hear a news, check the authenticity before u comment or form an opinion. To clarify 1) I produced the Film and not ARY so lets keep ARY out of it as they only distributed the film. 2) Mr. Moammar Rana comes from a good family and should not be stooping this low for Rs. 50,000 or is the balance Rs. 70,000/- or was that also adjusted on account of some tickets?. Ill not stoop to the same level and talk details) I gave him a fee for Azaadi that he never received and never will receive for a film before or after AZAADI so i really dont know what he is talking about. 3) I was under the impression that the status was about thanking me to give him a lead role in a project that brought him respect after such a long time but anyway my best wishes remain with my friend Mr. Moammar Rana. Regds.

Let’s hope this feud ends soon!

Lashkara Episode 14 – Review!

Ohkay so, this episode of Lashkara gave is an insight into Bubbly’s state of mind which was a result of her predicament. I must say I am so happy with the pace of this drama because every single episode has so much to offer & takes the story forward a great deal!

Saima tried to make Bubbly understand that she shouldn’t keep things hidden from her mother at least. Saima was right but then Bubbly was right too because she knew that Kulsoom’s bubble will be burst soon anyway so she wanted her to be happy for the last time. I love Bubbly’s character for this very reason that even though people see her for her beauty & what’s on the outside, but from the inside, she is so much more than that. Bubbly got married to Feeka because she put her family’s reputation ahead of her & now once again, like a mature married daughter, she was putting her mother’s happiness ahead of her too. I also really like Saima’s character because even though people see her as a bookworm but she has a personality of her own too where she is in touch with emotions, is observant, doesn’t shy away from voicing her opinions & when needed, takes charge of the situation that too authoritatively.

Feeka was broken but unfortunately, no one could console him or undo his pain. I so wanted Nasreen to do something about it but she chose to stay silent. I think in stead of just letting Nikki be, Nasreen should actually probe & ask her about the things Bubbly said which clearly indicated that she didn’t know how to type a message. Even though Nasreen finds it hard to believe or trust Bubbly but I have a feeling she knows Nikki is behind all this or even if she doesn’t, I see her wise enough to connect the dots & know that there must be a solid reason behind the hatred that Nikki has for Bubbly because of which she must have done something to cause her pain. It was sad that Nasreen just let Feeka dwell more & more into depression & chose to stand there helplessly whereas she is the only one who can fix everything if she takes charge of the situation & puts her mind to it!

At this stage, it is only Sunny who can actually help Bubbly but sadly, he is locked up too but a part of me was happy to see him in the precap of the next episode because it does look like Sunny will try to do something about it. Saima told half the truth to Nasreen & Muneer but she didn’t go into details as she knew that this was not what Bubbly wanted. I so wish Iqbal understands how because of him Bubbly feels awkward in front of Feeka’s family. I really can not believe that Nasreen fell for Nikki’s little act & told her to stay, despite seeing Feeka’s emotional & mental state. Well, Feeka did bring Bubbly back but it looks like he wants to punish her for shattering his trust on her. I so hope Bubbly just doesn’t settle for whatever Freka will throw her way & with Sunny’s help she will try to clear her name. Let’s see!

Loving this drama so far & I am enjoying everyone’s acting too. Please share your thoughts.

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Ishq Tamasha Episode 21 Review-Chaos Extended!

This was an episode which all dramas have. Their purpose is to extend the drama as much as possible since there is just the repetition of all old scenarios. There was a huge focus on how miserable Rushana is. How her husband is putting her down and she is in so much pain. I don’t know if they are trying to portray Rushna as a mazloom also since it is not possible after all the stunts she has pulled up till now. There were so many unnecessary scenes for establishing the same point. I think they are not realizing that the audience wants to see some impact too. Only watching Rushna drowning in the rainwater like Mirha and at the end still not realizing her mistakes is not we want to see in the 21st episode.

Ishq Tamasha Episode 21 Review-Chaos Extended!

I think I’ll end up liking Aqeela too. At least she is one character who is genuine to herself and not scared of making her point. Mirha, who is being called characterless with dhabbay in her kirdar is getting extremely annoying. Why doesn’t she fight back? I know showing off bechari mazloom heroines is the formula of Pakistani dramas, but there should be a limit. Mirha should defend herself now and stop anyone who is defaming her. Instead, she is still giving Wahaj (who deserves a whole article on why he is the weakest character of the season). He takes Mirha for lunch and then gets ice-cream for her and the minute his mom starts yelling on Mirha, he transforms into invisible smoke. I would hate this drama to the hell if Mirha ended up with such a weak and cheap character. I know the way she never defends herself, she deserves some punishment but ending up with Wahaj is bad even for Mirha.

Mr. Kidnapper Industrialist aka Mehrab The Indecisive Boy is at it again. With the recent developments, it looks like he has fallen in love with Mirha. He married his brother’s girlfriend, sent away his phupho who was like his mother and sent away Mirha to the same hell hole she came from and now he is realizing it. Not really sure about his punishment ideas either.

Let’s see if Mehrab ends up falling in love with Rushna or not since everything is possible in Ishq Tamasha!

Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka Episode 6 Review-Gumshuda Dulhan!

For the record, I am not producing or writing a drama but I want to know what is the criteria for a channel to give a green signal to a script? I am confused the way APC was confused this week after the elections. Is the MKHKAK team trying to annoy us with their project or is this a project to measure the tolerance level in the society? All in all, I am on the brink of falling into the deep sea of confusion with this drama.

Dania who was an un-chahi dulhan and then she was a divorced dulhan is now a gumshuda dulhan and her dulha is too cool to care. Hareem Farooq failed to portray the emotions a girl should show when she is stuck in a brothel. She was sitting there calmly whining about Zaryab and thinking about the whole divorce scenario. She was not really trying to get out of there. She should have shown agitation after finding out what the place was. She was again very calm when the lady told her ke aaj raat bhi ruk jao yahan. 

Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka Episode 6 Review-Gumshuda Dulhan!

Armaan, on the other hand, is even chiller than his wife. He was procrastinating and then he decided to call Zaryab. If any woman from your household, even the helper disappears like that, you cannot be so calm. It does not matter if you have lived in Pakistan or you were somewhere else your whole life. It is a must that you will be trying to get the lady back. But all he did was went to his father in law, came back, called his brother and slept. He had a fever though afterwards and he was sleeping to get over it. Is fever deadlier than your wife gone missing? He was again planning how he will get Dania married to Zaryab than trying to find her in the first place.

Zaryab called Dania “Meri Dania”, went out to different hospitals to find her and somehow did not think of informing the police or his father about the situation. His mother was ill according to the episode, however, she looked extra healthy. And Dania’s father is too annoying. Rather than being a support system and supporting his only daughter, uncle baar baar dil pakar lete hain!

They also mentioned previously that the divorce was null and void and in this episode again Armaan thought of Dania as his divorced wife. If anyone understood this Shaadi or divorce or whatever this is, please let me know in the comments section!

Ali Zafar Reminds Aamir Khan Of Promise To Visit Pakistan When Imran Becomes PM

During a media event in late 2012, Aamir had told Imran Khan that he would visit Pakistan to celebrate his victory if he came into power.

Aamir had said,

“When you win the election, I will definitely come [to Pakistan] to celebrate your victory. And I will bring lots of Indians with me,” 

Ali Zafar Reminds Aamir Khan Of Promise To Visit Pakistan When Imran Becomes PM

Imran Khan is set to become the next prime minister as his party led the National Assembly tally with 116 seats as the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) released results of all 270 NA seats that were polled on July 25 across the country.

Singer-cum-actor Ali Zafar has reminded Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan of his promise to visit Pakistan if cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan came into power.

He tweeted in response to a fan’s request,

“Aamir Khan, I think it’s time :),” 

Given the anti-Pakistan establishment in India right now it looks like Aamir Khan wouldn’t be able to stay true to his word but then again the universe works in mysterious ways so who knows.

Visaal Episode 18 Review – The Confession!

Ohkay so, things have become quite intense & interesting at this stage of the drama & by the end of every episode, I find myself looking forward to the next one. This drama sure is a piece of intelligent writing because I absolutely love how layered the characters are & how the overall story is developing!

Naheed finally confessed, she had to because Akram just didn’t leave any other choice for her than to finally bring herself to admit what she did. Naheed knew that Akram found out about everything & she couldn’t fool him further. Despite knowing Akram’s reality & his unreasonable demand of wanting to get married to Pari, I still didn’t see him in as much of a bad light as I saw Naheed. Yes, she feels guilty, yes, she has not been at peace ever since she saw Pari’s life getting destroyed but still, a few tears here & there & few anger pangs wanting to protect Pari from getting married too soon is not enough of a compensation or rather redemption to be honest. I totally think this was the right time for Naheed to say whatever she had in her heart to Pari & confess in front of her, but she proved that she still loves herself a bit more to do that by putting Pari ahead of her!

I thought Naheed will know that she has nothing to lose & because of that she will tell Pari everything but she once again tried playing the victim card in front of Pari by making Akram look like a villain in this entire situation. Yes, I will definitely give it to Naheed that she genuinely feels remorseful over what she has done but then in stead of saving Pari, she made herself look like a victim who needed help. Akram didn’t pay heed to Naheed’s pleading & he didn’t want to either because for him, Naheed is responsible for everything that Pari has gone through & that’s about it. I loved the entire conversation that happened between Naheed & Akram & how he worded his feelings & insight over this entire matter. He knows what he wants & he is open about it. I must say, because the writer introduced him in such a manner, I have grown to have an acceptance for a character like Akram & despite wanting everyone to know about his reality, I want things to work for him so that he can stop living a life of lies.

I feel Visaal has become one of my favourite works of Hashim Nadeem & it is all because of the way he has written the characters of Akram, Naheed & Molvi Ghufran. I must say, this has to be one such drama where the female lead had zero personality & still it does not effect or impact the overall experience of this story because the male lead as well as the supporting characters have such strong roles to play & have so much to offer. Even the characters like Doodh Patti, Khala, Jumman Bua, Tariq, they all in their own way contribute so much to the drama & make it a complete package & not to be missed, an added bonus of amazing acting by every single one of them where they have owned these characters & breathed life into them. I simply love Visaal, what about you?

Koi Chand Rakh Episode 2 – Review!

Ohkay so, this episode of Koi Chand Rakh took the story forward but was strictly alright. I think the predictability of the plot & the entire story is making it harder for me to be too emotionally invested in this drama. Even though this drama has big names associated with it & they are definitely drawing the viewers’ attention to it, the overall treatment that has been given to it makes it a bit lacklustre.

Zain follows Nishal who he thinks is Rabail only to find out where she lives & he gets to know that she is a daughter of Asad Niazi. Ibrar scores himself a win when he talks to Zain about Rabail introducing him as Asad Niazi’s relative & that’s when Zain thinks the universe is in his favor. It was interesting to see that Zain’s mother seemed a bit suspicious over Zain’s sudden submissiveness because she knows her son too well to him being perfectly fine with this change in his overall attitude especially in the matters concerning his marriage.

Ibrar’s wife visits Rabail & finds her to be a very traditional & simple sort of a person who is completely different to the kind of girl Zain has an image of in his mind. Zain does tell his mother again & again that he is perfectly fine with this marriage & she can’t seem to wrap her head around it.

Rabail on her own faces issues because of Umair who happens to create problems for her. Even though Nishal & her mother Nafeesa love Rabail a lot but they do make a point that Rabail was always going to be an outsider despite being an ideal girl that she is. Nafeesa feels threatened because she fears losing Umair because of Rabail & Nishal gives words to how she felt about competing with this perfect image of Rabail her entire life. Rabail does see that her presence is causing issues in Asad’s family, that happens to be reason why she quietly accepts Zain’s proposal.

Umair is unable to accept that Rabail has rejected him because he just can not take no for an answer & he feels frustrated as he is unable to make Rabail understand that they can share a relationship deeper & closer than that of siblings. It is obvious that the more Umair will try to persuade her, Rabail will try to find a way out of his life.

Overall, this episode of Koi Chand Rakh was strictly alright. I feel this is the sort of a drama that one can tune to if they either want to see their favourite stars or their acting because the story is quite flawed as in an era of Facebook & Whatsapp I can’t really wrap my head around the fact that Rabail & Zain will get married on the basis of a misunderstanding that too based on Rabail’s name? I totally see Zain & his friends as stalkers, which they clearly proved by following Nishal to her home, so it is quite unrealistic that they didn’t bother finding out more details about her especially in such a situation where their marriage is on the cards! Anyways, talking about acting, Ayeza Khan has gotten a chance to perform so far but not Imran Abbas, which I am sure he will once Zain’s character will come to the forefront completely. I don’t want to say this in such an early stage of the drama but so far it hasn’t truly impressed me & I completely blame the predictability of the plot. I also don’t see the characters having much depth in them, so far they all seem very typical, seen-before kind & I am not too sure how I feel about them all. I hope the performances of all these actors & some twists & turns make this drama worthwhile but so far, I feel it has had a very average start. Please share your thoughts!

Mere Bewafa Episode 21 Full Story Audio Review – Azra Ka Naya Roop

Woh Mera Dil Tha Episode 16 Review – Entertaining!

This episode was thoroughly entertaining and I am really enjoying the recent shift in the story and different changes in the characters. It is definitely time to tune into this drama once again especially for those people who might have stopped watching it after watching the initial episodes. Zaid and Naina’s track has taken centre stage and the recent developments have been fast paced as well as interesting. Zaid and Naina both have “gained” something from an experience which initially left them bewildered and upset. Naina has learned that money is not everything, she is quite happy with the love and trust she is getting. Therefore she is doing everything she can to give some love back. She has no idea that Zaid is taking money from her mother therefore she thinks that Zaid has perhaps changed a little. She has also been shown as someone who appreciates every little thing someone does for her and is completely different from Zaid who is selfish and thankless. The shift is Naina’s personality is likeable as well as convincing. This change did not come overnight and considering how “insecure” her father always was, it is easy to understand why this new-found trust would give her the courage and confidence to see something positive in an otherwise bleak situation.

Zaid is a selfish and greedy man who is making the most of this opportunity. Right now, even though Naina has changed so much Zaid is not interested in her at all. He notices the changes in her but unlike Naina he fails to see anything positive. He is thoroughly enjoying the fact that he is getting monetary help from Naina’s mother but he is so insensitive that he is using the car given to him to give other girls free rides. Naina and his sister still use public transport or walk back home! Until last week I didn’t feel the need to judge Zaid’s character because he came across as amusing but tonight I definitely felt for Naina. Zaid is cheating on her in so many different ways and he does not even pause for a second to think about how unfair he is being! Sami Khan has translated the character of a self-centered man who has hit a jackpot brilliantly. His expressions and dialogue delivery is always on point and effortless. Madiha Imam is extremely likeable in this role. She has done complete justice to her character and after this episode, I am dreading the fact that she will eventually find out what is going on and she will be heart broken.

Woh Mera Dil Tha Episode 16 Review - Entertaining!

The change in Fayyaz and Nawaz’s character is another interesting development. Although the actor playing Nawaz’s role completely killed the affect those dialogues could have had but the writer managed to get the message across. Nawaz has finally forgiven Fayaz which means that eventually both these families will meet at some point. Fayaz has also partially forgiven Naina and tried to help Zaid’s father today. Zaid’s father is completely different from his son – sometimes you wonder who Zaid took after! Zaid’s father deserves tons of credit for giving Naina the confidence because of which she has undergone a complete change. Zaid and Naina’s scenes continue to be the best part of this drama. Naina’s efforts to get closer to Zaid’s family are also heart-warming.

In the preview of the next episode Arham was shown trying to get in touch with Zaid. It looked like Zaid will try to get closer to Naina now because perhaps he feels Naina might leave him if Arham comes back. Right now, the story has tons of potential and there is so much to look forward to. If this drama had better production values and the supporting cast was better, it could have been more visually pleasing as well.

Imran Abbas Supports HUM Awards!

A huge controversy went down recently when Imran Abbas and Farhan Saeed showed disappointment on stars flying to Toronto for Hum Awards and not staying in Pakistan to vote. Imran Abbas was then targeted by Yasir Hussain who by the way thinks ke do baar vote kiya kuch nahin hua to abb to na diya to kya hogaya. Many people started talking about boycotting the upcoming Hum Awards. Imran Abbas has now clarified his stance on the whole scenario. This is what he said:

Imran Abbas Supports HUM Awards! Imran Abbas Supports HUM Awards!

Hum Awards are getting a lot of hate since the celebs started flying for rehearsals to Toronto. Hum has however also given their stance on the situation!

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.

How’d you like this episode of Haara Dil?

 

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.

 

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

 

How do you find HUM TV’s clarification? Is it Justifiable? Do let us know in the comments. The 6th HUM Awards will be held in Toronto, Canada on Saturday and will be broadcasted on HUM TV sometime during next month.

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:

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

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

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

Saheefa Jabbar also defended Pakistani stars who went to Toronto:

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!

Farhan has been very vocal about who he is supporting in the upcoming elections and has encouraged everyone to vote for their favorite candidate in order to become a part of the change for the betterment of Pakistan so his disappointment with fellow celebrities and other people leaving country at such a crucial time and wasting their votes makes complete sense.

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.
