This famous celebrity couple, Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor look amazing together. Ayeza Khan took a break from work as she was busy with her baby girl Hoorain but now the lady is back and look stunning. Her new avatar in drama Shehrnaaz and Mohabbat tum se nafrat hai is being appreciated by her fans. Lets see how tha plays will be. Here are few latest pcitures of Ayeza Khan and Danish Taimoor from Mansoor Akram Couture.
So the first thought that crossed my mind while watching this beautifully portrayed story was ‘Where have these days gone?’ No, Seriously. Watching such crappy serials every now and then has seriously affected my taste buds that now I can’t even stand such serials with the credit and appreciation they actually deserve. Patriotism, thrill, humor, romance, jealousy and sense of achievement all are packed in one and we all are left in awe. Those who have watched this can’t disagree that this drama is the ‘perfection personified’ in terms of everything. Shoaib Mansoor really roved himself as the best director of this time by extracting nothing but best from the cast who had no previous experience of acting. Who can say that it was their first play? For those who haven’t watched this play yet, here is the story:
Story:
As the name indicates, the drama is based on the life and times of three characters — Faraz, Kashif, and Gulsher also known as Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie respectively — and their friendship. These passionate young men wish to start their careers in the Pakistan army. In the initial episodes, ample footage is used to detail the background of every individual and the circumstances under which they enroll for the armed forces. Faraz is Mr Perfect, the guy who does everything right while Gulsher is a polite, simple-minded, shy person. Kashif is originally the funny man responsible for providing most of the comic relief through his antics, pranks and mischief. Eventually the series morphs into a coming-of-age story where the lead characters realize that there is more to life than their present happy-go-lucky lifestyle as they experience reality in all its fragility and extremities — jealousy, heartbreaks, trauma and death. Another important character is Shahnaaz, a confident, educated and well-mannered young lady, who plays an important role in the lives of these friends. Her involvement with them in the role of friend, wife and confidante adds reality to the series that is poignant and touching on a personal level. The main theme of the drama is that every person should lead a purposeful existence and that, if one has the will and the passion, he can achieve anything.
There are certain aspects of this drama which make it stand out in the crowd and here are those:
Patriotism:
So how many times we have seen such dramas in which the story revolves around the sense of devotion towards country? All we have seen are misunderstandings, extra marital affairs, second marriages, love triangles, women running after their cousins who show zero interest in them. For God’s sake there is something beyond this crap. The beauty of ABC is the central point of the story which has everything to do with leading a ‘Purposeful’ life. The word sounds odd because the dramas running now a days show the marriage and affairs as the sole purpose of human life. The leads Kashif, Faraz, Gulsher and Shahnaz made devotion their first priority. Do we have dramas like these anymore where people are selfless and all they think about are the ways in which they can utilize their abilities in the best way for the prosperity of their country?
Humor:
Honestly speaking there was a constant smile on my face while watching it excluding some emotional scenes in which I couldn’t hold back my tears. The naughty and witty character of Kashif constantly makes you look forward to his scenes. Abdullah Mahmood has breathed life into his character. How many times we have seen humor in our dramas that also keep the integrity intact? Even some serious situations brought a smile on my face and I couldn’t resist that. The style all the army officers carry and their sarcastic remarks on every situation and lack of emotions on their faces while delivering the dialogues was beautifully portrayed. Kashif won the game for me when it comes to humor and pranks, such a full of life person he was. All credit goes to the whole crew of ABC. They did their complete homework before touching such a topic that demands nothing but ‘perfection’ and ‘reality’.
A ‘Sensible’ love triangle:
I have laid stress on sensible. Yes, it was a decent and sensible love triangle. When Faraz found out that Shehnaaz was not interested in him but in Gulsher, he went through an emotional breakdown but soon he realized that he was getting jealous of his own friend and jealousy is actually self destruction. He became the cause of their union and look at Gulsher, he knew that his friend was interested in Shehnaaz so he explained it to Faraz that he couldn’t even think of the girl his friend was interested in. That is what they were taught in Army. Bravo Man! This track was given the minimum coverage. If that happens in recent dramas be ready for World War 3. And they will stretch the whole story to 30 episodes leaving the audience scratching their head thinking that who will be the luckiest person on the face of this planet who will end up with the girl.
Sorry! No Misunderstandings:
Even after Gulsher and Shehnaaz tied the knot, Faraz used to visit them and what surprised me the most was not for a second Gulsher doubted his intentions or thought something cheap about the scenario. Imagine if it happens in current days, get ready to hear those three magical words: Talaaq, Talaaq, Talaaq. Our writers have left no stone unturned in making this word nothing but a joke! Even Shehnaaz used to write letters to Kashif along with Gulsher when they both were on their mission and Sorry! Again no misunderstandings. Such things seem alien to me after watching the current crap on-air these days.
Strong Headed female lead:
Shehnaaz knew what she wanted from her life. She was not before any man and was not waiting for his ‘Khuwabon Ka Shehzada’ to complete her life. She was strong, determined, devoted and what not? She was looking for a man for whom she could do anything, who had some deficiencies and who could take some benefit from her presence. She could easily drool over Faraz who was more interested in her but she chose Gulsher over him who had no family background neither he was a rich fellow with a Mercedes like Faraz. She was a teacher of special children and we saw a lady who had much more to do with her life unlike our heroines who have zero self respect and all they have to do with their lives is playing tricks to get the ‘Shehzada Gulfam’ of their dreams. And it’s not their fault either; all credit goes to our writers who are stuck to a single topic i-e, cousin marriage.
Decent Romance:
Our directors can learn something from this play. You can convey all the emotions with decency and without any physical contact that serves nothing but ending up viewers changing the channel or in some cases one or two of the family members leave the TV lounge. When Gulsher talked to Shahnaaz for the first time on the telephone, he said “Bat simple si hai. Ap qoum ki izzat hain aur main uska muhafiz” What a beauty. Without going overboard and getting cheesy, he conveyed what was needed to be. The innocence on Gulsher’s face and Shehnaaz’s makes all their scenes remarkable.
Selfless Friendship:
The trio of Gulsher, Faraz and Kashif was one of the reasons behind the success of this play. Whenever they shared the screen, their bonding and chemistry made the scene picture perfect. Despite coming from different backgrounds, they never had a conflict based on it. Gulsher, the one having weak family background was always looked after by the other two and they always took great care of him knowing how sensitive a financially unstable person can get and how a small act can hurt his ego. They never looked down upon him and never made him feel insecure. Brilliant! I absolutely loved the bond they had and their love for one another.
Siachin Conflict and Bosnia War:
The drama was shot at beautiful locations giving us views of Siachin and Bosnia. It might be difficult to shoot in such extreme weather conditions but they did their job flawlessly. We came to know through this drama that through how many difficulties our soldiers went and it’s all because of the sleepless nights they spend that we can sleep peacefully without fear. It was a tribute to our Pak Army and an eye opener for those who think that being in Army and fighting against enemies is a piece of cake. This drama was a collage of different true events picked from here and there and gave us the insight of the tough life our soldiers spend. At the end we saw Kashif losing his both arms and legs and it is so inspiring to know that his character was inspired from a real Army Officer Lieutenant Colonel (R) Zafar Abbasi Ghazi. And we saw Gulsher losing his life. How beautiful it is to watch something like this that teaches you to think above personal level. Nobody can deny that dramas do have an impact on audience and all these purposeless dramas based on extra marital affairs, doubts and misunderstandings are playing their role very well.
I am actually short of words while describing the beauty of this magnificent piece of writing and the strong message it holds for our youngsters. Those who haven’t watched this play yet, please go and watch. It is undoubtedly the best drama in the history of Pakistan television. Those who have already watched it, please share your thoughts.

I don’t think any of us could’ve seen this coming! Hamein gaddi ka bhi soochna hota hai… just when Wali wanted to shine in his moment of manipulating the situation into Habibullah’s favour, Peer Sahab surprised everyone by sharing his wahi– Given the gravity of the situation, it was imperative that the nikah take place but the announcement left Kulsoom in a state of shock and rendered her numb. Tactfully keeping the women at bay, Habibullah did what he needed to do to turn things around.
Akhir ek maa Ki baddua lag hi gayi... Tahira never feared Allah’s wrath when she cursed her daughter and finally she ended up paying the price for her andha ehtemaadh. The very people she looked up to for blessings ended up being the ones to wreak havoc. Wali questioned the wisdom behind Habibullah’s decision and it dawned on me that this entire story was fabricated with one goal in mind- acquiring a woman who Peer Sahab had set his eyes on… wars have been waged over women in history; but wars are fought by men not slaves! And Kulsoom’s family were slaves to their Murshids and Habibullah knew that only too well.
I felt sorry for Haroon Bhai- his love story ended before it had a chance to take off and Shagufta was left in tears. Haroon was always shown as the one with the strongest aqeedah so he was the easiest to control. I shudder to think how Habibullah will exploit Kulsoom now that she’s under his panaah. Who will Kulsoom turn to if he chooses to violate her? Who will believe her? Surely not her family- these people who she called her own didn’t wait to think for a second of the repercussions of this nikah and how it will impact Kulsoom for the rest of her life.
Bibi was unable to intervene and she didn’t even manage to get a word in private. She glared at Habibullah but the deed is done and I don’t see how she will get it undone. I fail to read Bibi- I was sure she was pushing Habibullah towards Kulsoom and her taunts of the past were confirming the same. But the Bibi over the past couple of episodes is a completely changed one and I’m left wondering if I misread her expressions of if that was purposely done to confuse the viewers.
Bilal was shown for all of 30 seconds and I’m waiting for him to recover and confront Habibullah and Wali. Meher Nigar signalled the storm ahead and I hope she doesn’t have to suffer any further. How many of you were shocked at the nikah and the dulha?

Ohkay so, this episode of Dhaani was on the slower side too. They are taking their sweet time in showcasing the heartbreak both Dhaani & Sameer are going through. It is somehow good to see that as much as Dhaani is suffering, Sameer is suffering too, but I guess it is time to move forward to the next phase of the story.
All of a sudden, the happy & chirpy young fellows like Dhaani, Shaani & Raja have forgotten how to smile because they all are struggling. Gone are the days when they used to have fun together because where Dhaani is heartbroken, so is Raja & in the middle of this Shaani is struggling too because she is seeing her two closest people in pain. Sameer managed to get a glimpse of Dhaani & he was shocked to see her getting engaged the same day. Obviously, Sameer became a lot more restless but Dhaani thought it was only because his ego was hurt. Dhaani is right in misjudging Sameer as after finding out how she was never in his heart, she hasn’t given a chance to Sameer to explain how much pain & regret he is feeling.
Sameer still hasn’t been able to put a finger on what he feels for Dhaani, that is why he wants to speak to her in a hope that may be she can help him understand his state of mind better. Sameer even went out of the way by arranging a gathering in the Purani Haveli in a hope that he will be able to meet Dhaani & explain things to her but that attempt went in vain. Sameer however did get to speak to Dhaani for a few seconds & I am sure he convinced Dhaani to speak to him at least once showing his eagerness. As much as Dhaani says she doesn’t want to be associated with Sameer, even she wants to know what he has to say & what he is going through because the moment she heard there was an event taking place in Purani Haveli, she grew a little impatient.
In this episode, apart from the heavy stuff, I am glad they have given us some lighthearted moments between Raja & his friends. I enjoy listening to their conversations a lot & it shows how much Raja’s friends love & respect him. Amjad & family got a lot of coverage in this episode too & it seems even Amjad is quite happy with his engagement with Dhaani. Even if Amjad doesn’t say, just like any other guy who gets engaged, he wants to be on talking terms with Dhaani too, that is why he is seen speaking against the restrictions that Kaleem has imposed on his daughters. To be honest, even though it is a done deal that Sameer & Dhaani will end up together, I would hate to see Amjad’s family getting hurt in the middle. Amjad is a decent guy & most probably he will back off or might end up with Shaani, I just hope the entire family doesn’t suffer because of Sameer & Dhaani’s immaturity & irrational decision making.
Overall, this episode didn’t offer much but I hope they take things forward in the episodes to come & end the drama without wasting a lot of time. The actors have done a brilliant job & so have the writer & the director. I like how they add a touch of compassion, respect & honesty among the people of the interior city. Their scenes always bring a smile on my face. The way Kaleem still apologized to the Halwai for Raja’s behavior was quite nice. Also, I think they shouldn’t have shot all the scenes of Sameer & his friend in the dance club, it looks like that have no other place to live. Anyways, please share your thoughts about this episode of Dhaani.

The makers of Quddusi Sahab Ki Bewah, Faseeh Bari Khan and director Mazhar Moin are back again with another interesting play Faltu Larki.
Faltu Larki, the drama is comical exploration of how unfair the society gets towards women. The story is based upon a girl who comes from India and lives with a family in Lahore but is unable to stand for her right.
The drama is starring Seemi Raheel, Samiya Mumtaz, Hina Dilpazeer, Sumbal Abbas and Yasra Rizvi and also new talent.
Regarding the play Samiya Mumtaz said, “This is going to be very, very different from anything I’ve done before, I’ve often been stereotyped on television as a victim or a wailing woman; I want to change that image. This character isn’t dependent on any man.”
Regarding the Indo-Pak tensions Moin shared his feelings and said, “Emotions are more important. Pakistan and Indian share the same culture and ethnicity; for example, we turn a blind eye to the fact that there were/are inter-marriages happening. It’s difficult for those people to get their families to meet and mingle, despite having so much is common. We are just bent on trying to find differences rather than similarities and that’s a theme we tried to address.”

Mohib Mirza refused to present award on the Hum Style Awards 2016 for free. Mohib has simply said No to Hum TV Network that he will not be presenting any award at the show just thinking that it will be a great honor rather the channel should be paid for it.
Mohib, even wrote on his Facebook page:
According to the Bachaana star, the award show is being sponsored by a huge telecommunication brand, then why the channels expects the channel expects the celebrities to do work for free or for the sake of feeling honored at the ceremony. Mohib insisted that the stars should be compensated fro being part of the show.
After Mohib’s post, Ali Azmat also shared that he has also refused from presenting any award just like that. Filmmakers Shahzad Nawaz and Asad ul Haq and other fellow actors Sami Khan, Uroosa Siddiqui and Rubya Chaudhry also supported Mohib’s decision.
Ohkay so, this episode of Besharam was interesting too with some little developments to its credit. They have considerably slowed down the pace of the drama but I guess it doesn’t matter because they gave us happening episodes back to back for probably 20 weeks. I also feel they needed this time to introduce the turbulence that Haider & Mishi will face in order to emerge from it better & stronger.
Asfand has now started to push his agenda & that is he wants to do so many favors on Haider so that he can never come out of the deep pit he will be entering on Asfand’s orders. Haider is not wrong in feeling the need to access the lifestyle he only dreamt of because he believes he if getting everything based on his hard-work & due to the position he has secured in Asfand’s political party. Haider has always wanted to give Mishi the luxurious lifestyle that she left for him & because of that reason, now when the opportunity has presented itself, Haider is thinking one dimensionally. Haider has never experienced the life that Asfand is introducing him to, that is why right now it is seemingly attractive to him but Mishi on the other hand has lived such a life so she knows that that particular lifestyle comes with a territory & probably has more cons than pros.
I loved the way Mishi tried to explain things to Haider in simple words that she is far more happier & content in living a simple life with him & there is absolutely nothing good about the life Haider is dying to live. I liked the fact that Mishi immediately felt something fishy about the way Asfand was treating Haider. Even Khadija & Hamna didn’t seem too impressed because like Khadija said, it takes a lot of time, patience, perseverance & hard-work in materializing such dreams & these short-cuts never bring prosperity with them. I loved the fact that all three ladies of the house were on the same page & most importantly were right in their stance. Haider definitely doesn’t understand the gravity of the situation but I am sure he will have to fall hard to wake up & realize his mistakes. Haider right now is unable to relate to Khadija’s & Mishi’s feelings because he has tasted the power, so it is imperative that it will cloud his judgment to some extent. For the first time in his life, Haider has started reaping fruits of his supposed hard-work, that is why, he is not too sure why his mother, sister & wife are not being supportive. I wish Haider sees through Asfand’s intentions before it is too late.
Qadeer finally said yes to Shakira’s plea & he seems more than ready to get married to Humna. To be honest, even though Shakira did redeem herself by realizing her mistakes, she proved that she is enslaved to her selfish nature, because of which she ended up telling everyone that Humna was still engaged to Qadeer & they were going to get married soon. It was but natural that Khadija & Haider once again thought that Mishi was the reason why Mrs. Imtiyaz changed her mind about Humna but now when Mishi herself heard what Khadija said about her, I think she should put forth Manan’s proposal for Humna as she knows what Manan feels for her & she has also seen how supportive Khadija is of her despite being worried about her daughter’s marriage, I think Mishi owes them that much.
Everything that Humna said to Manan was actually quite sweet & even though I am not a fan of eavesdropping, I actually wished that Mishi had eavesdropped on that particular conversation because it would’ve been enough for her to get convinced that Humna was Ms. Right for Manan. I hope Sara snaps out of her depression, curbs her persistence & supports Manan in his decision of marrying Humna only in a hope to find some happiness by making her only son happy. Sara has lived her entire life on her own terms that too in search of happiness through true love but now when she doesn’t have a partner, she has her children who she should live selflessly for. Sara forced Sofia to marry Wahab despite knowing that their mental wavelength doesn’t match, she didn’t accept Haider despite seeing how happy Mishi is with Haider & now once again, she only wants to prove her authority to Manan by rejecting his wish to get married to Humna, so I guess it is about time that Sara realizes her mistakes & understands thsat even though she has destroyed her own life herself, she can not & she should not destroy her children’s lives too.
Overall, this episode was a little slow but I still had a good time getting the dose of my favorite drama after 2 weeks. The precap of the next episode suggested that Haider & Mishi’s relationship will suffer because of Asfand’s ulterior motives & Haider’s stupidity. Haider is being irrational to not see how Asfand is using him for his personal gains. I am sure Haider will soon realize his mistakes & he will bid good bye to Asfand & more than that I am looking forward to see how he will learn the value & importance of Mishi in his life when she will walk away. The effortless acting & the flawless direction makes this drama a treat to watch. Saba Qamar & Zahid Ahmed’s chemistry has made the couple of Mishi & Haider memorable. I can’t wait to see the next episode already. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Besharam.

After the border clashes between India and Pakistan and the ban on Pakistani celebrities in India, the Pakistani cinemas announced that they were not going to show Indian films to show support for their armed forces and country. The meek reply from the celebrities of Pakistan, especially those who have already worked in India proved that these celebrities put their careers in India ahead of their support for their country. While many celebrities in India were quick to support their armed forces and clearly stated that Pakistan really was harboring terrorists, all the Pakistani celebrities who have worked in India remained quiet.
The move from Pakistani cinemas to ban Indian films was the only big blow which proved that Pakistan too was in a position to ban Indian content. Soon after the ban few Pakistani celebrities like Shamoon Abbasi and Hamayun Saeed showed their discontent with this move. Shamoon Abbasi put up a status on facebook showing his disappointment with this ban. Hamayun Saeed said that Pakistani film industry was not producing enough films so Indian films were necessary for Pakistani cinemas to earn revenue. Even then the cinemas stayed trued to their promise, at least for some time, and decided to show Hollywood and Pakistani films, even those which were old so that those people who had missed these films could see and cinema houses will be doing business. There was no call for banning Indian shows on leading Pakistani TV channels, which was another disappointing development.
The shocking news is that all the promises made by these cinema houses cinemas could not be followed through. The film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil which has been produced and directed by Karan Johar and stars Fawad Khan too but no one is sure whether Fawad Khan is still part of this film. Another film Shivvay will also be soon in cinema houses. Those people who think that Indian films are a necessity for Pakistani cinemas should also realize that banning Indian films in Pakistan will hurt India more than Pakistan. Sometimes there are certain situations when standing by your country comes before everything else but unfortunately financial concerns come first for some business people. Also, ARY is already showing the promos for Big Boss’ new season. PEMRA should have dealt with this situation wisely by putting a permanent ban on Indian films and Indian content so that the cinema houses and channels did not have a choice.
In a statement today Karan Johar said that he will not cast any Pakistani stars in his upcoming projects if the environment stays the same but no Pakistani star has said that they are not going to work in Indian films if the environment stays the same. He also said that he respects the Indian army and commended them for their efforts! It has become impossible for him to screen his film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil in Indian cinema houses because of Fawad Khan’s presence in it.
Now the only hope are the people of Pakistan. If they refuse to buy a ticket for these Indian films and don’t tune into Indian content on television then that will be the best way to show support for their country and it will also give a loud and clear message to the cinema houses and channel owners that Pakistani cinema goers and television viewers can do without Indian films.

ZZZZzzzzzZzzzz….Oh! Sorry, I just woke up because this episode of Sanam served as a lullaby & put me to sleep. Ohkay so, shuru karain? LOL! Even though I knew that this drama didn’t have much to offer but I never knew that it wouldn’t even have some sense & logic to offer too. After watching this episode, I was reminded of Sallahudin’s mother’s comment; ‘in logon ka koi deen emaan hai bhi ya nahi’?
The moment Shehroz realized that his frankness with Aila was going to cost him his job, he returned to his senses & immediately forced himself to see Aila as his Bhabhi. All of a sudden Shehroz realized that he couldn’t deceive his langoti yaar because of sir-phiri Aila. Honestly speaking, I will thank Shehroz for making me laugh at his chicken-ness which made him realize that he was nothing without the financial support of Harib. The entire time Shehroz was pledging his loyalty to Harib by calling Aila his Bhabhi repeatedly, I was recalling all those times when he flirted with Aila shamelessly & all those satyrical glances he gave at her which clearly indicated his evil intentions. I must say, the writer really has left a lot on the viewer’s imagination, where she expects the viewers to understand these characters without doing any work on her part & without even establishing their characters properly. In the initial episodes, we were clearly told that Shehroz was anything but a loyal friend but now the bromance between Harib & Shehroz was being pushed to the limit to show that Harib meant everything to Shehroz.
I have a business plan for Shabnam & Aan & I am sure they will make big bucks if they will follow my advice. Shabnam should open a catering business & Aan can become a food deliverer & while she is at it, she can charge a few extra bucks for fetching couriers, letters & newspapers for her clients too. Since Aan is taking her Nashta delivery job so seriously while being a Daakiya too, I am sure Allah will put a lot of Barkat in this business seeing Shabnam & Aan’s sincerity & devotion in feeding people. Just when I was about to doze off, Harib made me laugh out loud at his ‘bohat bhook lag rahi thi’, like seriously, in the very first episode when Harib made brekkie for Aila, we learned the fact that Harib is a decent cook, so why has he forgotten the art of culinary ever since Shabnam & Aan have become meherbaan at him?
All this while, I was blaming Mona Haseeb for not doing justice to Aila’s psychological issues by completely forgetting about them, but she proved me wrong by ‘slightly’ hinting about the medication & psychiatric sessions that Aila needs, haha, like they waste so many episodes on bickering & bechargi but when it comes to something meaningful, they literally cover it in a dilogue or two. What a great way of dealing with an issue when you show nothing about it, do not give it a proper coverage & just when things are about to fall apart & just to prove how bighearted bechara Harib is, you make him say ke Aila Jaan, apni dawai yaad se khana aur pagal khanay bhi yaad se chali jana. This dialogue showed that this drama did include the fact that Aila has some psychological issues, so in stead of turning this story into a marital war & in stead of keeping the pace so fast, why didn’t they give a proper coverage to bipolar disorder by showing that Harib himself took Aila to the shrink & focused on understanding her behavior & issues himself too? Like they could’ve taken some time in developing misunderstandings between them but they just fast forwarded everything. It seems like such a wasted opportunity & also the entire bipolar thingy seems like an after thought because the director was in a hurry to throw Aila out of Harib’s life so that Harib could enjoy Anda Parathas without any mental pressure.
Aan learned the truth that Aila was seeking divorce from Harib & she blamed herself for it which was a right thinking on her part but then she put a lid on it quite easily & announced that both Aan & Shabnam should take care of Harib, meaning they should make him some more Andas Parathas, like seriously? I never knew that such a ‘seedhi saadhi’ Aan who has such a bright future ahead of her will entangle herself in the worry of her parosi’s parathas, lol. Like just imagine, from now on, Aan’s entire routine will be revolving around Harib’s nashta, where she will make sure to sleep early, so that she can wake up before the sunrise, iron her clothes, straighten her hair, clip in some weirdly textured extensions, put some makeup on to show up at his doorstep on time with a tray of weird smelling Anda Paratha & god forbid if Harib will spill the oil or yolk on himself, she will do his laundry too. In the initial episodes, they showed that Aan barely had time & she was always running late for office, so much so that Shabnam had to run behind her holding a brekkie tray, but seems like Aan has started waking up before Tahajjud so that she can spend enough time with Harib without even worrying about getting late from her office. I must say, even though I love Shabnam’s character & even though she was quite liberal, I still find it odd that she is allowing Aan to spend time with Harib, that too when he is going through a rough patch in his life, it’s like she herself is hoping for Harib & Aan to cook something together, haha!!! Bhai Harib munnay ko nashta karana hai to apne ghar pe karwao na apni nazron ke samne, ye Aan ko akele bhejne ki kya tukk hai? I feel this way because we know that Shabnam was looking for a decent proposal for Aan but now she seems a little too relaxed & laid back? Kyun jee!?!?!
I must say Aan was introduced as a very wise character but even she forced me to remember the infamous dialogue of Sallahuddin’s mother because at one hand she was crying buckets blaming herself for the divorce & on the other she was visiting Harib’s place as if it was her own home. Why didn’t Aan think for a second that may be Aila decided to come back so she shouldn’t just barge into Harib’s home so casually? Harib to choro abb to Shehroz ko bhi Anday Parathay ki adat dalay lagi hai Aan, haha! I was never a fan of Anda Paratha combination but thanks to Sanam-makers, I will detest it for the rest of my life!!!
This episode reinforced the importance of smartphones in our lives. It showed how one bro was manaofying his rootha hua bro, using the telephone credit that he was able to load in his phone because of the rootha hua brother’s meherbaani. It also showed us many features like how one can ignore phone calls & how unwanted messages can be deleted. To be honest I enjoyed watching the tantrums Harib was throwing over Shehroz’s phone calls & text messages, only to prove his bechargi in the next scene by opening the door for him to stay at his place, haha! To be honest, these characters have no personality whatsoever, they don’t have a mind, they don’t have a stand, they have nothing, which brings me to a point that the writer has no writing skills & that is why, this entire drama is so weak in terms of screenplay!!!
Overall, this episode was filled with subliminal humor. I had a good laugh watching Aila ke sataye hue Harib & Shehroz with their pain stricken faces, where Harib was dukhon ka mara hua & Shehroz was Aila se shadi ke khayal se ghabraya hua. I had a good laugh seeing Aan hovering around Harib like a food-fairy. Seriously girl, get your act together & stop worrying about Harib’s calorie count. Aila is fun, like seriously, at least she is someone who has a personality & is consistent. Aila might be negative but at least she is not a lota. The preview of the next episode suggested that Aan’s zid of thoosofying food in Harib’s mouth will cause more troubles for him because Aila’s parents will spot both of them together. I must say Aan’s dhitai & besharmi is commendable, like she is forcing herself into his life so much that he can’t even think of living a day without her anda paratha…hmmmmmm, strategy aur tact bohat acha hai waisay. Also, Aan was introduced with a braid & a dupatta, like it was good to see a confident educated girl still being in touch with her roots but ever since she has allotted a duty of feeding food to Harib to herself, her dupatta has slipped from her head & her braid has untied itself automatically, hmmmmmmmmm, bohat nazuk surat e haal hai. Anyways, please share your thoughts about this food filled episode of Sanam.

Ohkay so, a lot of twists & turns were introduced in this episode of Kathputli, but I am not sure if they were necessary because the characters have stopped making sense & that happens to my biggest peeve while watching any drama. Everytime I watch Gohar Mumtaz & his wife, I am always left wondering how good it would have been if they were not apart of this drama or their coverage was limited because they are not doing anything good in the story anyways. Also, I don’t think it is fair to Farhan Ahmed Malhi that his face is not a part of this title while still being the main lead, whereas Gohar & his wife, despite being supporting characters are seen embracing it as if they had a very important role up their sleeves.
Honestly speaking, I feel Ahad & Amna are justified in making assumptions especially after learning the truth that Shiraz & Mehru were related before. Amna did know about the fact that Shiraz & Mehru were cousins but she was justified in feeling cheated because of the way Shiraz was keeping things from her. On the other hand, Ahad’s reaction was natural, because he was learning things about his wife from a stranger & it was imperative that he had to be shocked.
Mehru & Shiraz returned & where they should not have wasted a single second in explaining things to their spouses about their little trip, they ended up beating around the bush, which was so nonsensical. I found it a very poor & forced execution of the twist to drag things where Mehru & Shiraz didn’t even bother about Amna & Ahad’s feelings while completely missing the point that they owed their spouses an explanation. Mehru however did try but by then Ahad was not in a mood to listen to his wife which I felt was Ahad’s mistake. I don’t really understand when Mehru finally decided to tell Ahad the truth, why didn’t she start off by talking about her mother because that would have given Ahad some perspective & enough patience to listen to her entire confession while giving her a benefit of the doubt. Mehru started telling Ahad the tale of her previous engagement with Shiraz which was uncalled for. Yes, she wanted to come clean & she wanted to be honest, but why did she speak about the relationship that didn’t exist anymore first & not about her mother? While watching that scene, I kept on wondering how long it would have taken Mehru to blurt the truth about her mother’s health? Where I did feel that Ahad should have listened to his wife, I also felt that he was pushed to the limit because he already saw that Mehru was lying to him before this adventure too, so he had no courage left inside to sit through that conversation.
On Shiraz & Amna’s front, things were just as bad but what made things ugly was Shiraz’s attitude. On one hand Shiraz said he was protecting Mehru, but on the other he was keeping Amna in the dark & not only that, he was being insensitive towards her feelings, so how did he expect his wife to react when he was not in a mood to tell her the truth? All this while when Shiraz was questioning Amna about why she checked his phone, I was getting irritated because he could have used that time in explaining things to her in order to calm her down & to make her understand that she was doubting Mehru for no good reason. I don’t understand how long it would have taken Shiraz to explain it to Amna that the relative of his who was hospitalized was none other than Mehru’s mother. Shiraz ended up threatening Amna with a divorce, only because he failed to explained everything to her while she was right in demanding an explaination for his weird behavior. Shiraz said he didn’t want to do anything to cause a dent in Ahad & Mehru’s life, so why was he being so unreasonable? Honestly speaking, I thought both Shiraz & Mehru will be wise enough to understand that hiding things would only cause troubles for them but they chose to waste time in speaking on the lines of riddles, without even bothering to solve them!!!
Well it was good that Saira found out the truth about her & Ehtashaam’s medical report but what seemed even better was that Saira chose to confront her husband for all the lies that he had told. It was actually quite amusing that the toughest looking guy like Ehtashaam had no guts to even stand a single confrontation & it took such a toll on him that he ended up getting paralyzed. I think this should be the beginning of the wrap up where Ehtashaam will realize his mistakes after getting such a harsh reality check & I hope the way the director has intelligently dealt with the script so far, he won’t drag things further & will curb the misunderstanding between Ahad & Mehru ASAP.
Overall, this episode was good. The drama has remained quite interesting so far, so I hope it ends on the similar note too. It is actually quite amazing that the writer has given us so many heart warming moments through Mehru & Ahad. It was actually sad to see Ahad suffering but I hope Mehru gets a chance to explain herself before it is too late. Sanam Chaudhry & Farhan Ahmed Malhi have made this drama a very interesting watch, not only the characters that they are playing are good but their acting is on-point too & I commend them for that. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Kathputli.

The four talented ladies were invited on Nida Yaisr’s Morning show and all were looking very beautiful.Have a look at the pictures.
Ohkay so, these episodes of Thora Sa Aasman were quite engaging & interesting. The consistent pace has always remained the strength of this drama. The director surely has given it a perfect treatment & there are no loopholes in the direction that were necessary for such a serious themed drama.
So, finally Rakshi showed her true colors & now when she saw how secure Mansoor made her in this relationship, she started exploiting his trust on her too. Rakshi ended up telling Ambar that Mansoor married her, while she had no reason to because she was at this stage where Mansoor could never throw her out of his life despite the suggestions of his wife or daughter. Rakshi very conveniently twisted the truth in front of Mansoor, which showed that she is in this relationship only for herself and not for any other reason, not even Mansoor.
The moment Muneeza and the entire family finds out about Rakhsi & Mansoor’s marriage, the hell breaks loose & everyone starts questioning Mansoor followed by blaming Ambar for bringing Rakshi into their lives, only to destroy everything. Muneeza thinks just by bribing Rakshi, she will be able to save her marriage only to find out that Rakshi had some other intentions too. Rakshi never wanted to share her husband, infact she never wanted to share his wealth, that is why she tells Mansoor to divorce Muneeza. Mansoor actually proved that he was a simple minded person who could easily get manipulated that is why he ended up doing what Haroon Kamal & Rakshi told him to do. If Mansoor had known that Haroon Kamal was the wrong support system he was depending upon, he would’ve never ever allowed a conniving man like Haroon Kamal to make a fool out of him. Mansoor ended up divorcing Muneeza while also estranging his beloved child Ambar. Safiya & Roshaan stay with Mansoor only to see what Mansoor would do, but they are left shattered when they see Rakshi in their home.
Looks like Zarka is going to make an appearance again. She might pursue her singing career & I am sure she will very soon come across Haroon Kamal. Shahista’s search for her son continues & they get a step closer by finding out that the couple who adopted him ended up giving him to a woman named Fatima. The scene where Shaheer, Saani & Samar run into Haroon Kamal was done really well. That was the moment where Samar felt some sort of attraction towards Haroon & for obvious reasons. It seems Nayab has developed some feelings for Samar due to which she gets irritated the moment Haroon tells her to judge him according to to his social standing.
Samar, Saani & Shaheer have no idea what Fatima is hiding from them & what their life has in store for them too. Fatima has done well as a mother & she has shaped the characters of her children really well. It would be hard to see them falling apart because of Haroon Kamal’s shadow in their lives. Haroon has wrecked Mansoor’s life & I am sure, the tables will turn & Karma will play its part on him too. Haroon thinks he has a strong hold on his life & his destiny & everything that he has done won’t bite him but he will be proven wrong & I can’t wait to see that happen.
Overall, these two episodes were done well. I know the way things unfolded, they had to be conveyed through a lot of screaming & yelling but there came a time probably after 2 scenes or so where I had to mute the TV because I couldn’t handle all the noise. All the actors conveyed the feelings of their characters really well & the director did a great job too. I hate to say it again but I didn’t like Yasra Rizvi as Fatima in this episode too, may be because I had a lot of expectations attached to her character that I am left feeling disappointed every single time I see her character being spoiled because of such a substandard performance. Anyways, please share your thoughts about these episodes of Thora Sa Aasman.

This was another well-paced episode of Bin Roye which had at least one unexpected development to its credit which added an interesting twist to the story and started a new chapter in the lives of all the primary characters. Even though this episode was not perfect but the best thing about Bin Roye so far is that it is a light family drama. Also, there are no heroes or villains in this drama which makes the characters easy to relate to. The positivity in the females leads in particular is also very refreshing. It was truly refreshing watching someone like Saba who is possessive and stubborn accepting Saman as her sister wholeheartedly. Things will of course change in the next episode but that does not change the fact that Saba’s character has only one flaw – she cannot share Irtiza with anyone at all – other than that she is not a negative person ; she does not get jealous and knows how to appreciate others which goes to show that she is not an insecure individual in general. Saba’s concern for Saman and the way she supported her went to show that she had a very loving and caring side to her personality. Mahira Khan and Hamayun Saeed were stars of the show tonight. Mahira Khan hasn’t only done complete justice to her role but you look forward to Saba’s scenes because of her. Hamayun Saeed’s overall personality is very well-suited for the character he is playing. Irtiza does not have a very complicated personality, he is a simple and nice person and Hamayun Saeed manages to pull that off effortlessly. One aspect of Irtiza’s personality which was continuously reinforced throughout this episode was that he is a very responsible person who takes his duties seriously.
Irtiza came back after finishing his studies and when dadi mentioned that Irtiza should get married now, Saba said something which was rather serious and definitely shocking for someone who was not anticipating something like this yet dadi ignored it completely perhaps because even though Saba is doing her masters now, no one takes anything she says seriously. Even then this was an important scene which most viewers were looking forward to but it lacked substance and had no impact. Why was this scene showed if it was going to have zero impact on the developments in tonight’s episode?
The first half of this episode was perfect but in the second half the editing was choppy and there were scenes in which there was no continuation whatsoever. The two scenes after Saman came back to Pakistan and the family secret was revealed to her came out of nowhere and had zero continuation. One second Saman was sitting there with no make-up looking like someone who was going through hell and the other second she was sitting with Maliha in full make-up sharing her feelings. As if this was not enough in the next scene she was wearing a completely different outfit and by the time she was in bed she was wearing another shirt which made you wonder if all of this was transpiring in one night! Saba and Saman’s scene however was emotional and marked the perfect beginning to their relationship. Saba’s reaction came as a pleasant surprise. Saman does not have a lot of dialogues which is actually working out well since Armeena Rana Khan’s dialogue delivery is usually not very convincing. Saman is a quiet and sensitive girl who is also multitalented. Saman and Irtiza’s growing interest in each other was also shown through brief scenes therefore it is somewhat difficult to relate to the connection between the two just yet. Their scenes have been lifeless and somewhat repetitive whereas the scenes in which Saba and Irtiza interact are full of energy. Saba has a strong relationship with her dadi and their scenes always put a smile on my face. These scenes also suggested that Saba is more close to her dadi than her mother.
Overall, This was another simple yet effective episode of Bin Roye. Every scene in this episode added something new to the story. Bin Roye does not have any powerful dialogues to its credit neither does it have characters which would leave a huge impact but it manages to hold your interest. The preview of the next episode showed that Saba noticed Irtiza and Saman’s interest in one another. I am waiting to find out how this character which has been very positive so far will change after making this discovery.
How many of you watched this latest installment of Bin Roye? Do share your thoughts about it.
There was a time when Pakistani dramas were known for their quality content more than their boldness. Families still gather in front of the television at 8pm hoping that they will get to see the same kind of quality content which Pakistanis were so used to watching at one time. Most often however the romantic scenes in the dramas are so bold that they make the viewers cringe and make it impossible for them to watch these scenes with their families. There were dramas like Zindagi Gulzar Hai, Hamsafar and others in the recent past which showed romance without going overboard but most of the dramas nowadays cross the limits which were once the benchmark of Pakistani dramas. Dramas in the recent past which did not have such scenes were less controversial and more hit which proved that people would much rather watch romantic scenes which are meaningful but not bold.
The Pakistani Censor Board should have a strict policy to ensure that such scenes are chopped down in the Censor process and as a result people can be sure that when they sit to watch Pakistani dramas they will get wholesome family entertainment.
After a long delay finally the film ABDULLAH is ready to hit the cinemas on 21st October. The movie is based on the incident of Kharotabad. The incident is about the deaths of five unarmed foreigners at an FC checkpoint in Quetta. The film was delayed due to the censor board objections as they considered the content bit controversial.
It’s been three years that the film was under production. The film is featuring Hameed Sheikh, Imran Abbas and Sadia Khan. Regarding the objection of censor board the director Hashim Nadem shared that they wanted the climax scene to be blurred but that could affect the movie therefore we re-shot the entire scene and now the issue is resolved.
The Kharotabad incident 2011 has been discussed and criticized on the national and international media, regarding how this film will show the incident the director Nadeem said, “The film actually revolves around Abdullah, who was the driver driving the foreigners, and how the incident affected his life. It shows the aftermath, the consequences of what happened. But, of course, the film’s backdrop is the incident.”
The director shared that through this film they have tried to reduce the intensity of criticism which the incident has caused. “There has been a lot of negative reports and propaganda revolving around the incident. With this film, we have tried to clear that out and send a positive message.”
Good luck to the team of Abdullah!

Wow! Loved this episode and the fact that all the tracks are being wrapped meticulously with every passing episode. Tum Kon Piya is one of those dramas which continue to entertain you and it also has a very solid storyline. The writer Maha Malik has written a script which is very well-thought-out and director Yasir Nawaz has a strong grip on the story and character as well, which is why Tum Kon Piya keeps you entertained and gives you a reason to look forward to the upcoming episodes. There was a time when the story came to a standstill but these past few weeks have been very happening. There are so many dramas on air nowadays that viewers are spoilt for choice therefore when a drama manages to hold your interest in this way for so many weeks than in my eyes it is a complete success. This isn’t one of those dramas which banks on star power also but the solid storyline and the way it has been executed is the primary reason why so many of us are still watching and enjoying Tum Kon Piya.
The most important development in this latest episode was Ramish and Neha’s marriage. All the reasons given by Tamkanat and Ramish’s father were convincing enough and ultimately both Ramish and Neha decided to get married only because they wanted what was best for Elma. Sunbal’s decision showed how wise she was and she was right when she said that she had learned to sacrifice her love for others from Ramish. Ramish’s character has been brilliantly etched-out, he has many positive points but he has some weaknesses as well. His biggest weakness is the love he feels for Elma which does not allow him to do justice to other people in his life. The scene at the breakfast table after 5 years of being married to Neha and later on Neha’s conversation with her Aapi went to show that Neha and Ramish were living a lie. They got married but Ramish never accepted Neha as his wife. 5 years is a long time to move on but apparently Ramish has not been able to do so maybe because he feels that he does not deserve to be happy because of the state Elma is in.
Zarbab’s sudden plans to go to England were somewhat unbelievable, if he was moving to somewhere in far East it would have been more convincing. Anyway, he moved away and out of Elma’s life forever thinking his wife had cheated on him. He was always shown as someone who had shocking double standards therefore watching him justify his own actions in front of his sister did not come as a surprise. Ali Abbas has been phenomenal as Zarbab. Imran Abbas also owned his character in this episode, his dialogue delivery, expressions and body language was perfect. Shameen Khan has also played her part really well especially ever since Neha moved into Ramish’s house her character has been much more likeable too. Azra Muhiuddin is another actress who has proved her talent and versatility in this drama especially because right now the condition which Tamkanat Begum is in is not an easy one to translate on screen. Exceptional acting by all the actors is another reason why all the characters and happenings have been easy to relate to.
This episode was emotional, convincing and covered a great deal in limited time. It ended at the perfect note, leaving the viewers wondering where Arif was and why was he willing to admit that he lied. Zarbab would never have been convinced that Elma was innocent until Arif admitted it himself therefore it would be good to see what condition he is in right now and the reason behind this change of heart. He could be in the prison or the mental asylum, I can’t think of any other place which would have the same shock value.
The preview of the next episode showed Zarbab running after the ambulance in which Elma was being taken to the hospital. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

The Cinema Owners and Exhibitors Association of India (COEAI) on Friday announced that movies featuring Pakistani actors won’t be screened in single screen theaters in Maharashtra, Goa and Gujarat.
The decision comes ahead of the scheduled release of Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which stars Pakistani actor Fawad Khan. While it was slated to hit the screens on October 28, the COEAI decision has cast doubts if it will see the light of the day any time soon in western India.
COEAI President Nitin Datar told IANS : “We have nothing against Karan Johar. It’s just that we won’t allow the release of any film which will have Pakistani actors or technicians in it.”
The COEAI has over 400 members. “We have collectively taken this decision that we won’t showcase such films in our single screens. As of now, we will be following this decision in Maharashtra, Goa and Gujarat,” Datar added.
The decision comes amid India-Pakistan tensions. “We can’t say we are banning these films. It’s just that we are suspending all these films,” said Datar.
“In future, if our (India’s) relationship with Pakistan gets better, we will work towards it. But looking at the current scenario, we have to take this decision,” he added.
The Maharashtra Navnirman Sena had earlier warned Pakistani actors to quit India and said it would not let movies — including Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Raees — to release.
Following that, the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association had passed a resolution to disallow Pakistani artistes from working in Indian films.
In response, Pakistani exhibitors had reportedly decided not to screen Indian films in their cinemas.
