As someone who has followed Hum Dono from the start, I was really hoping for a strong, emotionally satisfying finale. Instead, what we got was a rushed, illogical, and frustrating ending that failed to do justice to its characters and story.
Storyline & Pacing: Where Did It Go Wrong?
The drama started off with an engaging premise—a love story entangled in class differences, betrayals, and family politics. But as the episodes went on, the pacing became painfully slow. Some plot points were dragged for weeks, yet the final episode rushed through crucial moments that should have been given more depth.
One of the biggest disappointments was how many storylines were left unresolved.
- What happened to Sumbul? She was a major character, yet her arc just disappeared.
- Shehroz faced no real consequences? After everything he did, the story simply moved on without giving him a proper punishment.
- Asad and Wafa’s reunion felt forced. After all the emotional buildup, their reconciliation was too sudden and lacked a heartfelt moment of closure.
It felt like the writers just wanted to wrap everything up as quickly as possible, without caring about whether it made sense or not.
Performances: A Mixed Bag
If there’s one thing that kept Hum Dono watchable, it was the performances.
- Kinza Hashmi as Wafa was a highlight—she delivered emotions beautifully and made Wafa’s struggles feel real.
- Azaan Sami Khan as Asad had a solid presence, though his character’s development felt inconsistent.
- Zaviyar Nauman Ejaz as Shehroz was probably the weakest link. His acting felt forced, and he struggled to bring depth to an already one-dimensional character.
The supporting cast did well, but with such a weak script and rushed ending, even the best performances couldn’t save this drama.
Direction & Writing: A Missed Opportunity
Bee Gul is known for writing complex, emotional narratives, but Hum Dono felt like a case of lost potential.
- The early episodes had depth and strong dialogues.
- But as the drama progressed, it became repetitive, predictable, and eventually rushed.
- The final episode could have been an emotional rollercoaster, but instead, it left me feeling nothing—no excitement, no sadness, just frustration.
Aabis Raza’s direction was decent, but the inconsistent storytelling overshadowed any good cinematic moments.
Final Verdict: Worth Watching or Skip It?
If you started Hum Dono, you might want to finish it just for closure. But if you’re considering watching it from the beginning, I’d say skip it—there are far better Pakistani dramas out there with stronger storytelling and more satisfying conclusions.
💬 Final Rating: 2.5/5 ⭐
✔️ Pros:
- Kinza Hashmi’s performance
- Good OST (Soundtrack)
- Engaging start
❌ Cons:
- Slow, dragged-out middle episodes
- Rushed and unsatisfying ending
- Unresolved storylines
- Weak antagonist
A drama that started with promise but ended with disappointment—Hum Dono could have been great, but instead, it left me wondering why I even invested so much time in it. 😕
