Bas Tera Saath Ho is currently on air on ARY Digital. The show is the reversal on blockbuster Mere Humsafar. Anas and Ansa’s love story is moving forward and so is the track with Shehreen and Faham.
Shehreen is egotistical and oversmart. She thinks Fahaam has fallen for her and by bringing the proposal he has assured her of her delusions. Her father Mursaleen, grandfather, Anas and even Shayan is against her obsession with Faham but she is living in her La La Land. Fans are loving the twist and waiting for what is coming for Shehreen in Bas Tera Saath Ho.
This is how she is behaving:
Fans are loving this situation and everyone’s reaction. One fan wrote, “Tum ne naat parhi aur usse tum se pyar hogaya. Shayan was epic.” Another added, “Anas and everyone is trying to protect her.” One said, “Shehreen thinks she is smart but she is not.” Here is the audience reaction:
Aik Mohabbat Aur is a drama which is slowly making its way in the hearts of the audience. With the fresh pairing of Ahad Raza Mir and Maya Ali and Faiza Iftikhar as the writer, the show has touched upon many important issues. The leading duo has been brought together finally as they are tying the knot. The male lead is who is receiving the maximum love from everyone.
Aik Mohabbat Aur is showcasing the greenest flag in Haroon Malik. He not only understands the problems a single mother faces but also privides solutions for them. He is also willing to take on the responsibilities of a father if he is getting into the marriage with a single mother. He understands Khushbakht’s trauma and stands by her to help and back her in every situation.
Here is what Aik Mohabbat Aur showed about a green flag man and Haroon is getting the crown:
The internet is reacting to Haroon Malik’s green flag behaviour and they are in love. One person wrote, “Haroon is raising standards.” Another added, “The way he is providing solutions to all her problems.” One said, “Ahad Raza Mir has won again with this jolly role.” Here is the reaction:
Zanjeerain is a drama that has been highly anticipated since its announcement. The drama brought back the Yakeen Ka Safar trio of writer Farhat Ishtiaq, director Shahzad Kashmiri, and the lead star Sajal Aly. The drama went on air with a huge cast and caught the audience’s attention in an instant with its Game of Thrones-esque plot twists. With big names like Ahsan Khan and Momal Sheikh making cameos and stars like Adnan Siddiqui and Samiya Mumtaz taking the show forward, new stars like Danyal Zafar and Sahar Hashmi also tried to give their best.
Zanjeerain had a fast pace in the first half, and it gained an audience not just in Pakistan but internationally. Many people have praised the show for the strong performances and a storyline not revolving around conniving mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. But the drama still cannot be called a masterpiece due to some glaring flaws, which have dragged it back from reaching the peak it was aiming for. Here are the flaws that stopped Zanjeerain from becoming a masterpiece.
Unrealistic Settings
Zanjeerain was set in the rural areas of Pakistan. It is suggested to be the KPK area, as is evident from the Sardar attire, the women doing pardahs, as well as the Khan surnames. Some parts also seem to be set in Kashmir, though the provinces are not specifically highlighted. The Northern Areas of Pakistan and many parts of KPK are known for their beauty and nature. The culture of these regions is strong, and people often follow their norms and attire. Thus, watching a very rural Rabiya in a very Turkish-inspired attire looked very out of place. Similarly, the extreme frankness and closeness between Pashtun Bano and Sarbuland is also completely out of place. Their love and understanding make sense, but going freely into each other’s rooms at any time of the day does not match the area and culture depicted in the show.
Choppy Performances
Zanjeerain has some of the strongest performers from the industry in one project. Sajal Aly, Adnan Siddiqui, Samiya Mumtaz, and Hassan Nouman are all actors who give it their all. However, Danyal Zafar and Sahar Hashmi are two new actors who gathered praise for their work in the drama. But during some very important scenes, the performances were choppy, and the consistency faltered. For example, when Mudassir calls Sarbuland, Danyal Zafar was not able to hold his performance well. The same thing was seen once again after Bano disappeared.
Loopholes in the Plot
Zanjeerain has a thrilling storyline. The show did not hesitate in killing off the main characters played by stars like Ahsan Khan, Momal Sheikh, Ameer Gilani, and Sahar Hashmi. But there are some glaring loopholes in the story that do not make sense.
First and foremost, Mudassir grew up with Sarbuland, and he should technically know his family members and vice versa. Similarly, Torsum also grew up with them, and he should have seen Mudassir a few times. But they both acted like strangers when Torsum came to kill Rabiya.
Another huge loophole at this point is Rabiya staying for months on at Sarbuland’s house, and she has still not shared a single word about what happened that night. Why she is not taking Torsum’s name is not make sense, as she has nothing to lose at this point.
Sarbuland not getting suspicious at all of Sohrab, especially how calm he has been since his sister’s death, is also not making sense. Though Sarbuland has shown to be an “urbanised” guy, he is still the son of Sardars, and he should have some survival instincts.
Trench Level Lows After Peak Highs
Zanjeerain is a hit as the drama has shown some peak moments. The scene where Mahgul and Sherdil’s car was blasted looked realistic. Similarly, its aftermath, Sarbuland’s emotional breakdown, was also great. Ameer Gilani’s Mudassir’s death, as well as Sajal Aly’s breakdown as Rabiya, were high points of the show. The drama picked up after these high peaks, but the show again falters as it drags back to trench-level lows.
The drama shows a big plot twist and then keeps dragging on for a number of episodes. This alternating of peak highs and trench lows does not let the curiosity build as it did for a show like Khaie. The inconsistency has become a hurdle in this drama reaching the masterpiece level.
Underutilized Potential
Zanjeerain went with a stellar cast and then failed to utilise it to its full potential. A stunning actress like Samiy Mumtaz is mostly limited to crying for her dying progeny or lying in the hospital. Similarly, Adnan Siddiqui’s Zafran Khan was so intriguing, but he never got enough screen time. Usman Javed was a breakout star as he made people hate him as Torsum. He has now been confined to wandering around to find Rabiya, and his villainous streak has somewhat died down.
These actors were capable of a lot more, but all we get are repetitive scenes of Shireen and Sohrab’s cringe romance.
Unnecessary Screentime
The show has many tracks that have people invested, including Rabiya and Mudassir, Bano’s murder, Sherdil and Mahgul’s murders, and much more. But the screen time always keeps fluctuating between Shireen’s intrigues, Sohrab’s romance with her, and also running along the hills for no reason at all. Fans mostly do not get what they actually want to see, and screen time is given to unnecessary plot points, which drag the script unnecessarily.
All these shortcomings are a hindrance to Zanjeerain being called a masterpiece. What other shortcomings have annoyed in the drama? Share in comments!
Nadia Khan is a renowned Pakistani television host and actress who is currently facing strong criticism from the entertainment industry after she openly called out a scene from Hum TV’s drama Zanjeerain. In the sequence, Sajal Aly’s character was rescuing herself by running while softly saying, “Koi Hai.” Nadia Khan mimicked the scene and remarked that it demanded a much more powerful performance. According to her, the character should have been running while shouting “Save me!” instead of casually saying “Koi Hai” in a low tone.
Nadia Khan is facing both praise and criticism for fearlessly pointing out a logical flaw, loyal Zanjeerain viewers, Sajal Aly’s fans, and several artists took offense of her statement while other said she just pointed out the flaw not Sajal. Saima Akram Chaudhry, Maya Ali, and now Saba Faisal have publicly expressed their displeasure with Nadia Khan.
Saba Faisal commented on an Instagram post criticizing Nadia Khan, writing, “Nadia Khan, you aren’t sitting in your living room; you are on social media. Why do you speak like this against your fellow artists? Who are you to criticize the one and only Sajal Aly? / Nadia aap apnay ghar kay living room main nahi balkay social media per baithi hain. Q aap apnay artiston ko is tarha bolti hain?”
However, Saba Faisal’s criticism backfired as Nadia Khan’s supporters rushed to defend her. One user wrote, “Saba Faisal is upset with Nadia because Nadia isn’t her bahu and neither is she under her control.” Another commented, “Stop it. For once, Nadia Khan was right.” A third user wrote, “Nadia ne to phir bhi ‘Koi Hai’ bol diya tha. Even that ‘Koi Hai’ was hard to hear in the actual episode, and I’m shocked how it was heard by Sarbuland standing miles away from Sajal. Where was the logic?” Another fan stated, “What Nadia said wasn’t wrong at all. It was the director’s mistake, which should have been fixed during editing.” One more user added, “It wasn’t about Sajal. It was Zanjeerain’s poor scriptwriting.” Read the comments here:

Nadia Khan is a renowned television host and actress who is currently making headlines for her blunt drama reviews. She recently criticized the flawed execution of an important scene in the hit drama series Zanjeerain, which did not sit well with Sajal Aly’s fans and the drama’s viewers, who began bashing Nadia Khan.
Nadia Khan stated that Sajal Aly underperformed in a scene where her character had to save herself from goons. While many agreed that Nadia Khan had raised a logical point, she also faced significant backlash from fans and celebrities, including Saima Akram Chaudhry.
Saima Akram Chaudhry did not appreciate Nadia Khan’s criticism of Zanjeerain and shared a post, saying, “This woman, Nadia Khan, needs a psychiatrist for her bad behaviour. She ruined one of my best scripts, which I had written with so much passion, through her pathetic performance, and now she is criticizing others.” Read here:
Nadia Khan has now made a strong comeback and gave Saima Akram Chaudhry a reality check about her run-of-the-mill scripts. Nadia Khan wrote, “Saima Akram Chaudhry told me to see a psychiatrist, so I did! Diagnosed with a severe case of ‘Truth Syndrome’—aka practicing free speech and calling out bad writing. There’s no cure for my honesty, but there is a prevention for you: write better scripts and fix your production errors.” Read what Nadia Khan shared in her official Instagram:
Bushra Ansari is a legendary actress of Pakistan. She started her career as a child artist and she has reigned for 4 decades over the industry. Her family is also a huge part of arts and culture with her father being a renowned journalist while her sisters are also writers and actresses.
Bushra Ansari’s father Ahmed Bashir is a legendary journalist. He was honest and principled and never made compromises. But there was a dark part of his personal life which Bushra revealed on Good Morning Pakistan.
The actress shared that her father made a movie which flopped. He had put in his own money as well as his parents money in it. After the film flopped, the relationship between Bushra’s father and her grandparents deteriorated. She revealed that her father did not even know where was the grave of his mother. After 30 years, she saw her grandma in a dream and told her father. He then went to search for the grave and cried a lot. He later found out that he was crying at the wrong grave. She revealed her father was not a good son.
This is what she said:
The internet is reacting to Bushra Ansari revealing her father’s story. One person wrote, “Bushra should know to not reveal her parents’ secrets.” Another added, “Maybe your grandparents were in the wrong for prioritizing money over their son.” One said, “These actors share such weird stories.” Here is what they had to say:
Tipu Sharif is an actor who is known for his very natural performances. He always does great work and he is often speaking about animal rights. He is currently starring in two big hits aka Bas Tera Saath Ho and Tapish. The actor is very candid and says what is on his mind. He was a guest on FHM podcast and exposed the biggest three channels of Pakistan.
Tipu Sharif revealed how big channels exploit actors. They will never offer you great roles and if they ever offer you a big character, they will quote a smaller fee. They know that the actor will be stuck and they will work in the drama for lesser money if the role is good. He was exploited this way by ARY Digital who paid him very small amount of money for the drama Kaisi Teri Khudgarzi as they knew the role was good.
This is what he revealed:
Tipu then revealed that he was shocked when he was offered such a big role in Tapish. For the drama he revealed that he will be paid around 20-30 lakh rupees depending upon his days required. But the character is supposed to be ultra rich and to make its wardrobe, Tipu Sharif had to spend 9 lakh rupees which the production does not pay. Thus this is how male actors especially always have to curate their own wardrobe.
Listen to another expose:
About Hum TV, Tipu Sharif revealed that he has not received a call for work for 6 years. They just say that there is no character that suits you. He did a huge drama like Sang e Mar Mar with them and he still never gets any offers from the channel despite having a good relationship with the management.

Decorated writer Saima Akram Chaudhary is hitting back at Nadia Khan. She took Nadia to the cleaners as her comment was very harsh. She said that Nadia needs a psychiatrist for how she behaves. Saima added that Nadia is a pathetic actress who destroyed a great script which I wrote with her pathetic performance and now she is criticizing others. Here is what Saima Akram Chaudhary had to say:
Nadia Khan has worked in a drama titled Kaisi Aurat Hoon Main written by Saima Akram Chaudhary.
Besides Saima Akram Chaudhry, the writer Sarah Majeed also called out Nadia Khan. She said, “One is constructive criticism and the other is criticism for the sake of criticism and it happens every time because these people know nothing other than criticism”
The internet is reacting to Saima’s criticism of Nadia and they agree. One person wrote, “Nadia is such a worst actress herself and she criticizes others.” Another added, “She does this all for ratings.” One went, “Agree with Saima’s words about Nadia.” Here is what she said:

Real Azan is a young Lahore-based Pakistani digital creator who recently made headlines after sharing his Nikah pictures and reels. Following the viral Nikah posts, the digital creator’s Instagram following grew from 60,000 to over 82,000. The publicity stunt also made him go viral in India, where his videos were viewed by millions.
According to many of his old followers and fans, Real Azan’s Nikah and Mehndi events were staged and a gimmick to gain more followers and views. They claim that the “bride” is actually his younger brother, who had previously appeared in his vlogs. Fans say the bride has the same facial features as his younger brother and allege that he wore a wig and makeup as part of the publicity stunt. One social media user wrote, “This is not a girl but a boy wearing a wig.” Here is the post:
Netizens agreed to the claims after spotting a person with similar features in Real Azan’s previous videos. Although Azan has denied the allegations that his Nikah was staged, many fans remain unconvinced. One user wrote, “I knew from day one that it was a boy.” Another commented, “So they are inspired by the most viral reel, Nadiaa.” Another wrote, “Thank God it’s not a real marriage. Otherwise, he had put us in a complex that people much younger than us are getting married. Now I’m feeling better.” One user said, “I had noticed earlier that it was a boy.” A fan also wrote, “I had a feeling that he did it all for fame.” Read the comments here.

Faysal Quraishi is a versatile and acclaimed Pakistani actor, admired for his top-notch performances in hit TV serials such as Boota from Toba Tek Singh, Meri Zaat Zarra-e-Benishan, Haiwan, Qaid-e-Tanhai, Bashar Momin, Muqaddar, Hook, Farq, Aap Key Liye, Bheegi Palkain, Khaie, and Fitoor. Last year, he received widespread praise for his performance as Kamran in the drama serial Case No. 9.
Recently, Faysal Quraishi appeared on Trifit Pakistan’s podcast, hosted by Maham Khalid. During the podcast, he claimed that Indians do not want Pakistani content to be featured on Netflix.
Responding to the host’s question, “When do you think Pakistani content will be seen on Netflix?” Faysal Quraishi said, “Should I speak the truth? Indians don’t want Pakistani content to be published on Netflix. Secondly, we don’t speak the truth, and for Netflix, we have to speak the truth. Netflix wants countries to show their dirt and dark side. You should show what’s happening in your country, and Pakistan can’t show everything that is happening here because, eventually, the filmmaker who presents the real picture of the country won’t be able to live in Pakistan after that. And Indians won’t let it happen either. Another main issue is that everyone in our country is watching Netflix through borrowed accounts. Some get access from friends or cousins abroad, while others share a single subscription with many people. Nobody in Pakistan is buying their own subscriptions, so Netflix isn’t getting any revenue from Pakistan like they are getting from India, so there is an Indian hold on Netflix because their market is bigger. In Pakistan, the first question we ask about our upcoming film release is, ‘When is it available on YouTube?’ I wish Hum TV good luck with their upcoming Netflix venture.” Watch here:
Bushra Ansari is a renowned television artist known for her multiple talents, including acting, hosting, comedy, writing, and singing. Her notable dramas include Aangan Terha, Badlon Par Basera, Bilqees Kaur, Udaari, Barat Series, Pardes, Tere Bin, Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum, and Very Filmy, among others. She is currently receiving praise for her brilliant performance in the hit Geo TV drama Shaidai.
Bushra Ansari recently appeared on Good Morning Pakistan. During the show, she opened up about the family restrictions they imposed on their daughters and how their progressive approach toward marriage eventually led to what she described as their biggest mistake.
Talking about it, Bushra Ansari said, “I am already wounded and have a bad experience regarding my daughter’s marriage. In our time, we weren’t allowed to explore things. We were restricted from having male friends, and we didn’t study in co-education. In reaction to that, we told our daughters not to lie and to inform us if they liked anyone. I remember once Nari received a call at home, and Ansari Sahab said, ‘I don’t want boys calling my daughters.’ I asked him to give them a bit of freedom so they wouldn’t lie. I made him understand that studied in co-education and had male friends. Those friends would naturally call her, and otherwise she would have to lie about them. I didn’t want my daughters to lie. He then said he wouldn’t allow her to visit her male friends’ houses, to which I replied, ‘It’s okay. I will invite her friends to our house. They are most welcome.’ So, we found a middle ground and became more progressive.”
She further added, “We belong to a middle-class family where it was considered a taboo to tell daughters to look for rich husbands. How could we ever say, ‘Find a man with a big house or a lot of property?’ Because, for us, values mattered more than money. We believed financial status didn’t matter as much as a man’s upbringing. We always advocated that a husband and wife should build a home together, even if the husband had a low income. We made a mistake while finding a perfect match for our daughter. I couldn’t judge a boy by his family or outward appearance. I thought if he’s talking elegantly, his family is educated, he is the right guy. Even Nariman had told me that he gets upset whenever I ask him about his finances. It was actually a major red flag, but we ignored it because we were afraid of losing the proposal.” Watch here:

In a recent episode of Kya Drama Hai, Nadia Khan mocked Sajal Aly’s dialogue delivery. According to Nadia, Sajal underperformed in the escape and running scene.
While mimicking Sajal Aly’s dialogue delivery, Nadia Khan said, “Rabia was constantly running and saying, ‘Is anyone there?’ Suppose you are running—how would you run, and what would you do if people were chasing you to harm you? What would you say? She was so politely saying, ‘Is anyone there?’ Instead, you would be loudly shouting, ‘Save me!’ If you were trying to save yourself, would you call for help in such a low voice? The movements and visuals did not match the voice. And Danyal also heard this low voice. From her tone, it felt as if someone was sitting on a rock, playing with the water, and she is softly saying, ‘Is anyone there?’ ‘Is… is anyone there?’ ‘Is anyone there… in my dreams?’ It was a mystery, sorry to say.” Watch here:

But these women get into cars of these new age criminals willingly.

Recently, Sahar Hashmi appeared on the YouTube show Haute Talk, hosted by Hassan Choudhary. During the show, she addressed her Zanjeerain post regarding the alleged cold behaviour of some cast members.
Responding to the host’s question, “You shared a post and then changed its caption about cold behaviour and fever. What was that about? Were you specifically referring to someone?” Sahar replied, “It was really cold out there. We were shivering because of the intense weather and filming difficult scenes. It was a dark story, and such stories also affect your mood, so we can let it go. The set was good for me, and I had a good relationship with the cast. I got along well with Raza, Anaya, Sajal, Danyal, and Momal. My experience with Danyal was okay as we didn’t do much scenes together also that Bano mystery happened. I had a great time working with Sajal Aly. She even called me to appreciate my performance. I would love to work with Sajal again, and I can also work with Danyal if the role is suitable but with Sajal I do crave to work more” Here is the link to the video:
She further added regarding Danyal Zafar’s behaviour, saying, “Listen, when I feel disrespected, I remove myself from that situation. Obviously, when I wrote that, people started giving me weird reactions, so I decided to remove myself. I felt that if I wasn’t there, there would be no discussion. They weren’t fans, but I don’t like attention. No one likes to be discussed in a negative light, and not everyone enjoys that kind of humor. I’ll be honest—it wasn’t my co-actors, the director, or the producer. It was a few people on set who were rude and always in a bad mood. They weren’t part of the main crew; they were people working behind the scenes, like the editing team. I respect Danyal Zafar and the cast. People take female actors’ captions differently and male actors’ captions differently.” Watch here:
