Villains are as important to a story as a hero if not more so. Any drama, film or short film is as interesting as the negative character which forces the hero to make choices and propels the story forward. Pakistani dramas also largely depend upon negative characters and many of our stars have admitted that playing a negative character allowed them to showcase their real talent and that is where they had the margin to shine. Each season comes with its own fair share of hated characters and we have a list for this season’s most hated characters from Pakistani dramas:
Arham From Hasrat
Arham’s character was weak, lacked even basic moral values and still ended up as a winner in a fight between women that he was solely responsible for. Fahad Sheikh played Arham in Hasrat brilliantly. The viewers were hating on all his actions and the way he was seen treating his very loyal wife and then later on his second wife was painful to watch at times. Arham represented the common man of our society who always gets away with what he has done while women are left behind to pick up the slack. The ending of Arham also made people furious as he was not punished for his deeds and got the best of both worlds.
Fabiha From Hasrat
Fabiha is another character from Hasrat which was played by Janice Tessa. Fabiha’s circumstances and her justifications for her character were understandable but no one can feel sympathy for a woman who is going after a married man. The way she got married to Arhma and then kept scheming against Sanaya made the public’s blood boil. Janice did a geat job with Fabiha and though her ending was stupid and unjust, people still did not like her in Hasrat.
Jameel From Radd
Jameel is played by Paras Masroor in Radd. Paras is a great actor as he has established that through his work in Sang e Mar Mar but he keeps getting typecast in roles as Jameel and well, he is good in them too. Jameel is the brother-in-law from hell in Radd. The way he has schemed and conducted himself is being hated by everyone. He somehow gets away unscathed from every controversy he starts and he is the worst husband to Savera which makes people hate him even more.
Aslam From Jaan Nisar
Aslam is played by Sajid Hasan in Jaan Nisar. Aslam is the protagonist Dua’s father and he is one of the worst characters on television right now. He is constantly yapping about what a disaster daughters are. He is not supporting one daughter who is getting abused while he threw out the other who ended up at a brothel. He is also sort of characterless personally and there are no positives about Aslam from Jaan Nisar. He is definitely one of the most hated characters right now.
Kashmala From Jaan Nisar
Kashmala is played by Hiba Ali Khan. Kashmala is the protagonist’s ex-sister-in-law as well as his current first wife. Her character is getting backlash as she is scheming to keep Dua and Nosherwan Ghaznawi played by fan favourites Danish Taimoor and Hiba Bukhari apart but one of the most imprtant reasons for the hate Kashmala is getting is for the way the character is written. Her obsession with Nosherwan and how she is always so desperate makes her stupid, too negative and people dislike watching it.
Sultan From Shiddat
Sultan is played by Muneeb Butt in the drama Shiddat. Though Sultan’s extremism and torture streak has a reason stemming from his abusive childhood, people simply hate this character for all it has done. Sultan not being redeemable is basically a win for Muneeb Butt because that is how it should have been perceived given the toxicity of the character. Shiddat gets a spot on the list with Sultan.
Noor Jahan From Noor Jahan
Noor Jahan is played by Saba Hameed in Noor Jahan. She is a controlling and conniving woman who likes to rule her kingdom with an iron fist. She operates her sons like puppets and takes every decision of their lives. What makes her hated is not just the control that she exercises over her sons and daughters-in-law but her aversion to having daughters makes her evil of the evil. The way she was happy about losing her first granddaughter to a miscarriage was menacing and made everyone hate her.
Hunaid From Noor Jahan
Hunaid is played by Noor Hassan and he is the eldest son of Noor Jahan. He is nearly as toxic as his mother and the way he treats his wife makes everyone’s blood boil. His constant Amma Amma is irritating to watch and the character has been performed well. Unfortunately his abusive behaviour towards his wife and the way he reacted to losing his daughter made people put him on their hate list. He also has no sense of boundaries and keeps crossing them with his brothers and now sister-in-law Noor Bano.
Safeer From Noor Jahan
Safeer from Noor Jahan is played by Ali Rehman Khan. He is the second son and a person with no spine. He has destroyed two lives just because he did not have the guts to stand up for himself. Safeer not only betrayed Zoya twice, he is now betraying Sumbul once again and he is happy with her demeanor as his persoanl slave and not a wife who is an equal life partner.
Adeel From Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum
Adeel in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum is played by Emaad Irfani. He is insecure and shallow and he cannot stand by his word. He is also super greedy and did not handle the situation in the correct manner. People already hate his price-tag yapping personality and he will soon be joined by a toxic and stubborn wife to push him further. By jilting Sharjeena at the altar, he is definitely being hated these days.
