Shazia Naz started her career with modelling and later stepped into acting career and made her small screen debut with ARY Digital’s drama serial “Mera Pehla Pyar” opposite Faysal Quraishi.
Shazia Naz in a recent interview with “Momina’s Mixed Plate” opened up about the gross reality of casting couch in industry. Shazia mentioned that it depends on a person itself that how you position yourself in such situation, how intelligently you deal with it and how desperate you are.
Shazia while sharing her own experience of casting couch added that “Quite recently, I’ve encountered a situation where somebody that I’ve worked with actually suggested me to be a part of the film in a very casual way. He said that I want you to be the part of the film but what you have to do is to meet the producer personally, just you and him. I just got red flags when he said that.”
“I asked him that why should I meet the producer and he replied that you should go and talk to him because he’s the one who’ll make the final decision. That shady tone of him just made me realize that there’s something wrong. I have already worked with this person and I was amazed that does he not know me? How is he even suggesting this to me? So ironically and unfortunately, you yourself get amazed sometime that how could a person whom you have known from such a long time could do this to you”, said Shazia.
Shazia further stated that “I turned around to that person and said that I’ll go through the script first and if the script would be good enough, just set a meeting with the entire team, I would love to meet. So that’s a indirect message that if you want to work, work professionally and if you are thinking something else, you can get lost”.

I have to admit that sitting through this episode was tough because I wanted to skip everything else and move to the part where Hani and Saad were finally together! This last episode of Shayyad was emotional just like this drama as a whole and it was good to see Sadia Khan sporting a look which went well with Hani’s situation and her acting too was right on point tonight. In this episode however, the background score at times was so loud that the dialogues were barely audible. Also, the last scene of this episode would have been even better if Saad thanked Tania before she left. The scene covering how Saad finally met Hani and the meeting itself was covered perfectly. The way Tania stood by Saad all these years was truly endearing and the best part of this last episode.
A love story which was poignant, inspiring and meaningful, Shayyad was one of those very few dramas in recent times which didn’t drag at all. Although few of the episodes didn’t work for me because of the choppy editing but overall I highly recommend this drama to all those viewers out there who would want to watch a different love story which has a filmy feel but at the same time is really convincing.
This wasn’t the first time that Faiza Iftikhar gave her viewers an unforgettable male protagonist. Saad wasn’t perfect but he was passionate about the woman he loved and he had quite a few personality traits which made his character appealing. In fact his flaws made him a compelling protagonist who always kept you guessing. Saad’s role was played brilliantly by Uzair Jaswal. The character growth was also covered convincingly and this aspect of the story was especially important since the story started from the time when Saad was only a teenager. Although the odds were always against Saad but he was never shown as someone who was a victim of circumstances. Saad’s character and Uzair Jaswal’s solid performance throughout was the highlight of this drama.
Hani’s character itself didn’t have the same appeal as Saad’s character but it was Hani who decided which turn Saad’s track will take by rejecting his love for her and ultimately by getting married. Saad was however never turned into a bechara, the viewers weren’t “forced” to feel for him but it was something which came naturally. The on-screen chemistry between Sadia Khan and Uzair Jaswal along with the beautiful manner in which their track was penned down made this love story relatable. This drama also had some of the most beautiful dialogues to its credit.
The background score and the beautiful poetry was used effectively in most of the episodes and the director Syed Ali Raza (Usama) gave this drama the right treatment. Except for a few episodes, the flashback scenes, especially the ones covering Saad and Hani’s childhood were translated on screen superbly. The supporting characters and their tracks were just as interesting as that of the leading characters. Tania’s progressive character was like a breath of fresh air and even Mahpara’s track held my interest completely in the last few weeks. Nauman Ijaz was phenomenal as Salar and even though he didn’t get a lot of screen time but every scene covering Salar’s track was written and executed faultlessly. Mahpara’s happy ending and Salar and Hani’s love story showed that you can fall in love at any age and if you truly love someone then age most certainly is only just a number!!
Shayyad is one of the very few plays which ended at the right time which is why it is going to be missed and remembered for all the right reasons. The ending couldn’t have been more gratifying but the preview of this last episode gave this ending away which wasn’t fair with the viewers. Unlike many other writers, Faiza Iftikhar didn’t wait until the last episode to wrap up all the tracks but only left the main track to be wrapped up in the last episode which is always a great idea.
I would like to thank all those talented and creative individuals who worked hard to make this drama a success. A special thanks to all those wonderful viewers who read the reviews every week and gave their feedback. It wouldn’t have been the same without you guys. Shayyad will be missed but thankfully we have Woh Mera Dil Tha to look forward to every Saturday now!
Do share your thoughts about this last episode, I would love to hear from you.
Another week, another intense and convincing episode of Shayyad which ended a little too quickly! Shayyad is turning out to be an interesting play which keeps you engaged and even though some of the cast members are clearly not the best people for the job yet it manages to hold your interest. Shayyad is the perfect drama to watch if you want to be thoroughly entertained. It has a different and unpredictable storyline and the execution is on point for the most part with the exception of the loud background score which can be overbearing and drowns out the dialogues sometimes. The pace of this show also gives it a definite edge since so far every episode has contributed something substantial to the story. Saad’s character and his track continues to be the main attraction since it isn’t very often that we see a young man’s journey translated in such a manner on screen in our dramas. The fact that the misunderstanding in this episode wasn’t stretched and in fact took the story forward deserves special mention since many of the dramas nowadays bank heavily on misunderstandings alone! It is always good watching a play which doesn’t have those run-of-the-mill scenarios.
Like every other episode of Shayyad this one too had quite a few important developments to its credit. Saad’s desperation piqued after Hani made it clear that this was the last time he was going to express his love for her in this manner. Saad’s disappointment to see dada alive said a great deal about how desperate he was. I am however glad that he had nothing to do with Salar’s accident because planning something extreme makes him human but going ahead and executing these plans would have turned him into a negative character. Even when Saad is saying those negative things and plotting the unspeakable, he comes across as desperate and immature and never as a negative person. This is the reason why even though his character isn’t perfect, it is always likeable. Saad and Hani’s confrontation in Hani’s room was intense but a little too loud. While Saad’s tone was alright, Hani was literally shouting. The scene covering Hani and Saad’s first meeting in this episode was beautifully written and directed. The additional poetry in the background is a remarkable way of showing Saad’s state of mind and adds to the intensity of these scenes.
The wedding festivities and everyone’s frame of mind during them was covered impressively. This episode also showed how Salar felt about his deceased father which makes his track even more intriguing. He definitely has a background story and a specific reason for being so controlling, selfish and cold. Hani’s outburst in the hospital and the reason behind it was the best part of this episode. Now everyone knows what is going on between Saad and Hani, I am waiting to see how Mahpara reacts to this latest development.
The preview of the next episode was interesting but it revealed a little too much since after this episode the viewers would be wondering whether Salar survived or not and if this marriage will eventually take place. Saad has more time on his hands now but it is highly unlikely that he will be able to convince his parents or Hani. Apart from some scenes in which the background score could have been toned down, rest of the episode was brilliantly directed. The script so far is logical as well as enticing. Uzair Jaswal continues to impress as Saad, Nauman Ijaz has nailed Salar’s character and majority of the supporting cast has been giving solid performances. Sadia Khan’s acting was slightly better in this episode.

Shayyad is getting more interesting with every passing episode and although some of the scenes in tonight’s episode were difficult to execute but the director managed to translate them on screen without making them look too awkward. Like most of the other dramas written by Faiza Iftikhar this one too is unpredictable, convincing as well as realistic. I truly appreciate the fact that the writer did not make Saad an ultimate bechara although his character is such that he would have gained a lot of sympathies from the viewers had his character not taken the turn it took recently. The fact however is that the main reason why his character is more appealing than ever now is that he isn’t perfect. The evil and desperate plans he keeps on thinking about intentionally and unintentionally make it easier for the viewers to connect to his character. Right from the first episode Saad’s character has held my interest and even now his character keeps me guessing. Uzair Jawal was absolutely remarkable in tonight’s episode and overall too he has done justice to his character.
Tonight’s episode covered a great deal from light moments which covered the marriage functions to serious developments like Saad getting even more desperate and Hani sensing Saad’s true feelings for her. This episode showed that Saad isn’t even trying anymore to keep faces which is why when he went to take Salar’s measurements, he continued to say things which will put him off. Salar’s reaction showed that he was quite capable of controlling his anger if it suited his needs. Salar is also desperate to have Hani in his life but for completely different reasons. Apart from being controlling and rude, Salar is also very calculating. We have seen quite a few men like Salar in our dramas, characters who only reveal their true identity after marriage but it isn’t very often that the viewers are shown the mindset of a man like him on screen. He gets angry at a lot of things but only shows his anger if he feels that the situation is right. The intensity of his anger is also measured by the circumstances. Nauman Ijaz is the king of expressions, no matter what role he is playing, he always manages to impress the audience. He was a brilliant choice for playing this role.
Hani and Saad’s scenes together in the first half of this episode once again showed the difference between their feelings for each other and the second half covered the way Hani felt after realizing how Saad actually felt about her. Her initial reaction and the confusion later on was covered perfectly. Even though so far Sadia Khan looks much better than she acts but in this episode in particular the scenes were written and directed so well that her average performance could easily have been overlooked. Mahpara’s character so far doesn’t have a lot to offer because her scenes always show how left out and betrayed she feels. Her story is gradually being revealed and as long as she does not get a lot of screen time, her character is bearable.
The preview of the next episode was really enticing and well put together. Will Saad do something extreme to stop this marriage or will Hani end up blaming him for something he has not done? The best part of this drama right now is that it is impossible to predict what is going to happen next!

This episode of Shayyad was extremely convincing because every aspect of the story was covered flawlessly. From Hani and Saad’s relationship to Salar’s intentions, all the developments were written and executed well. This episode also revealed Mahpara’s story’s background and the reason why she is a spinster. The best part of this drama so far is that the characters are not black and white, with the exception of Salar’s character which so far appears to be the bad guy only. I am waiting to find out why he is so controlling and also the reason why he is so bitter towards his mother in particular. Although Salar’s character isn’t the least bit likeable but Nauman Ijaz is absolutely phenomenal as Salar, every single expression tonight was timed perfectly and his body language is always completely in line with the character that he is playing.
The most important development in this episode was that Saad’s plan backfired. The reason for this was that Salar was willing to do anything at all to make sure that he got married to Hani. Salar’s conversation with his mother clearly indicated that his sole purpose right now is to make Hani his wife, after that he does not plan to go out of his way to make this marriage work. Salar is someone who is used to owning whatever he likes therefore when he felt that his marriage with Hani might be in jeopardy, he decided to change the date of the wedding.
The way Salar kept on insisting that Hani couldn’t possibly be happy because he wasn’t happy with this marriage showed how convinced he was that Hani felt the same way about him too. Saad finally revealed to Hani that for him she wasn’t just a good friend but since this was another one of those vague indications therefore I am wondering if Hani still knows what he actually meant. Before this, Hani asked him if he had done something wrong or if he was hiding something because she still didn’t have a clue why Salar was so upset. Everything is happening quickly now therefore no one has the time to pause and think why Salar is behaving like this. I especially liked the scene in which Saad tried to tell his father the truth. Although he mustered up the courage to tell his father what he had done but his father’s reaction changed everything. Had he told his father the truth, the focus would have shifted to him and the entire situation would have been even more complicated.
Overall this was an emotional episode but there were some light-hearted moments in this episode as well. Dada and Mahpara’s scene was one such scene. This was the kind of episode which keeps you at the edge of your seat because it was impossible to predict what the outcome of different developments would be. Few scenes of this episode reminded me of Dil Banjara, especially the turn in Mahpara’s track and the whole issue of dividing the assets just before marriage. Sadia Khan’s wooden acting once again stood out like a sore thumb. Her dialogue delivery is weak and her body language stiff. While all the other actors are doing complete justice to their characters, Sadia Khan continuously keeps the viewers wondering whether or not she will be able to translate the challenges Hani is going to face in the future realistically on screen in the upcoming episodes. Right now Hani’s character isn’t a difficult one to portray but even then she is constantly struggling.

Tonight’s episode of Shayyad revealed a side of Saad’s character which showed his desperation as well as his immaturity. While everyone else around him thinks he is depressed because he is afraid that he is losing a childhood friend, no one has been able to decipher the real reason behind his anger and depression. Surprisingly enough, even Mahpara has not been able to figure out why Saad is behaving in an odd manner. So far, apart from his own feelings Saad has been getting enormously influenced by everything he hears. When his friend told him that everything was fair in love and war, he felt he had the license to do whatever he wanted to. Similarly, when his phupo criticized Salar, he instantly felt Hani deserved better. For once phupo’s observation was absolutely right but Hani’s uncle is just as impressed by Salar’s personality as Hani is and Naila just wants Hani to get married so that she doesn’t have to live with another spinster. Phupo on the other hand cannot see Hani getting married because of her own complexes. Mahpara’s scene with her father was hilarious! I absolutely love Irfan Khoosat in this role and would love to see more of him.
Salar’s character is turning out to be completely negative but after tonight’s episode I am more interested than ever in finding out how the relationship between Hani and Salar will turn out to be once these two get married. Salar wants Hani’s undivided attention and treats her like something he owns instead of a human being who has a life of her own too. Tonight, the way he refused to greet Saad properly and later on the manner in which he inquired about Saad clearly showed how possessive he was about Hani. Given his controlling and cold nature, this marriage will probably be a nightmare for Hani.
In a way Hani is looking for Saad’s approval, she has always shared all her good and bad times with Saad therefore she is missing Saad’s presence and support now. She was eager to find out what Saad thought about Salar and was upset when he drew that picture to tell her how he felt after meeting Salar. Hani’s situation is interesting and her confusion understandable at this point. Sadia Khan however remains the weakest link in the play. Although overall Uzair Jaswal’s performance wasn’t impressive in this episode but there were a few scenes in which he performed really well. Even though what Saad did tonight was way out of line but I actually like these flaws in his character, his character wouldn’t have been so appealing if he didn’t have these flaws.
Salma’s love story has been relegated to the background all of a sudden and it is almost as if that particular track never took a tragic turn. This is especially strange because her track was getting a great deal of attention before. Although, watching her get a lot less screen time than before is definitely better but then why was there so much focus on her track before?
Although Shayyad isn’t picture perfect but the story is interesting enough to keep your interest alive, it is definitely the kind of drama I look forward to mainly because of the fact that it is unpredictable and interesting enough.

Shayyad is turning out to be an interesting play which is a must-watch for all those viewers out there who enjoy watching well written romantic stories. Saad’s character is turning out to be an extremely likeable one, I don’t remember the last time I saw a character like this one in one of our dramas. The fact that Uzair Jaswal has translated this character on screen in such an impressive manner definitely helps, he doesn’t appear to be a bechara because he is not helpless, gullible and a dimwit (a character which we have seen on screen a little too often) but you feel for him because his feelings for Hani are genuine and pure. He is not weak because he takes a stand and does whatever he can to protect Hani. Most often such sweet male characters are shown as helpless individuals who rely entirely on the women they love (remember Harib) but Saad is someone who right from day one when he was a little kid has given Hani the emotional support she needed which is why even though he is much younger than Hani, he has contributed a great deal to this relationship.
Tonight’s episode revealed a great deal about Salar’s character even though his scenes were short but his conversations with his mother and Hani showed that he was a self-conceited individual for whom his own happiness came before everything else. Salar ordered his mother to go ask for Hani’s hand and didn’t even bother waiting for her reply. I am slightly disappointed with his character because he isn’t a likeable person therefore I am wondering why Hani will consciously get married to someone who has such an intimidating personality. Salar told Hani off more than once and made it clear that he wanted their meetings to be about him – whatever he wanted to talk about – he is clearly a person who likes to dictate and control. He hasn’t kept this side of his personality hidden from Hani but even then Hani is falling in love with him even more. The conversation in the car about not expecting anything from him unless he makes promises should have been a warning. I still feel like I don’t know Hani well enough, there are times when she seems like an opinionated woman and then there are times like these when it looks like she will allow someone who fascinates her walk all over her. Hani fell for Salar the second she saw him but later on she also gave him a piece of her mind when he said things she didn’t like therefore Hani’s reactions tonight were surprising.
There were some scenes in this episode which highlighted the difference between Saad and Salar. While Saad was more than willing to listen to Hani talk about Salma for as long as she wanted because he knew that would make her happy, Salar told her off the second she mentioned Salma. Saad puts Hani’s happiness before his own, in fact whatever makes her happy, makes him happy as well but things are completely different with Salar. Salma’s track took an unexpected turn with this episode. Although the eloping scene was slightly long and the music loud but it was filmy in an interesting way, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it especially because it resulted in a significant development in the story.
The background score in some of the scenes in tonight’s episode was so loud that it was distracting. Salma’s scenes once again were painful to watch because of the get-up of the actress playing the role more than anything else. There was no need for her to wear so much make-up and a see through chiffon duppatta looked completely out of place when she was eloping! Although I absolutely love Nauman Ijaz’s natural portrayals but I felt that Salar’s character should have been underplayed in this particular episode. Sadia Khan’s acting in this episode was relatively better but there is a lot of focus on her character and she doesn’t always do justice to the attention which is being given to her. Uzair Jaswal is the star of the show so far. Some of the scenes tonight were somewhat rushed as well but overall it was an interesting episode which definitely gave me a reason to tune into the next episode. I am very interested in finding out how Hani’s brother reacts once Salar sends the proposal since Salma’s dialogues in this episode hinted that this family was very particular about the men they got their daughters married to. Will Salar fit the bill? And if this proposal is rejected, what extent will Hani go to in order to be with him? How will Saad react once he finds out that Hani is not in love with him? I am waiting to find out.

This had to be the best episode of Shayyad so far and one which won me over completely although it wasn’t picture perfect. The manner in which Salar’s character was introduced in tonight’s episode was a classic case of show and tell. Nauman Ijaz’s overall demeanor and the way the scene was structured gave the perfect introduction to Salar. He is a serious and no-nonsense kind of a man who didn’t fall for Hani instantly but later on felt attracted towards her or perhaps felt a desire to have her in his life when she played hard to get. Hani was looking for “inspiration” when Salar happened to pass by and he grabbed her attention instantly. Nauman Ijaz’s screen presence and his sheer brilliance as an actor allows him to translate every role assigned to him on screen with perfection. Salar’s character got the full-blown introduction he deserved since it is a central character and also someone Hani felt attracted to instantly.
Tonight for the first time the viewers saw a different side of Hani’s personality. Although Salar caught her attention instantly and it seemed like a case of love at first sight but even then she told him off more than once. Hani’s character is being revealed gradually and so far she appears to be a woman with a strong personality, definitely not one of those typical heroines who only look pretty and wait for someone to come rescue them. She has a purpose in life and her dialogues tonight gave an insight into how she feels about life in general. Sadia Khan looked stunning as usual in all of the scenes but the scene covering her first meeting with Salar was shot so beautifully that it looked like a painting. The on-screen chemistry between the leading actors in this drama makes their scenes together a treat to watch; the credit for this goes to the writer as well because these scenes have been written so beautifully.
Saad’s scenes with his friend showed how sure he was that Hani loved him too and once he has finished his education, he will have no trouble convincing his parents. Saad is too young and too in love to see that Hani doesn’t feel that way about him. The fact that Hani felt attracted to someone like Salar showed that her ideal man was very different from Saad. Saad’s love for Hani is pure and it has been translated on screen superbly.
The only thing about this episode which didn’t work for me were phupo’s scenes since all her scenes show her resentment towards her brother and bhabi for not being concerned about her marriage. Also, Salma’s overall look doesn’t go well with her character, she is too made up for a “ghulam”. These scenes shouldn’t have been given so much screen time since they disturbed the flow of the main tracks. Having said that Hani, Saad and Salar’s track is headed towards an interesting direction especially after tonight’s episode. Although I feel for Saad already and can’t imagine how he will cope once he finds out Hani is in love with someone else but I can totally relate to why someone like Hani would fall for a man like Salar and not Saad. Sadia Khan has failed to bring out the best in her character, so far her portrayal isn’t entirely flawed but at the same time it is pretty average. Hani’s character and the story as a whole is interesting enough to keep me coming back for more. Salar’s entry in the drama has definitely made it more appealing. Uzair Jaswal yet again was perfect as the naive young boy who is madly in love. I also like the stark difference between Salar and Saad’s personalities

This was the kind of episode which keeps you glued to your television screen right from the get-go. There were some major character developments in this episode and a plot twist which changed everything. Tonight’s episode was full of emotional scenes and the kind of positivity which puts a smile on your face. The opening scene of this episode was powerful and after a long time the flashback scenes were used effectively. This scene was brilliantly written, acted out and directed. The change in Salar’s personality and his decision to set Hani free was convincing because in the previous episode he narrated the reasons for these shortcomings in his personality and for his violent nature in detail and ultimately he decided to set Hani free because he could see that she wasn’t scared of him any more.
It was however difficult to understand why he forgave his mother since she hadn’t changed in any way and the fact is that there wasn’t much she could do to change the way she reacted to different situations in the past. Nauman Ijaz’s performance tonight was exceptional and Sadia Khan also gave a steady performance. However, Sadia Khan’s failure to compromise on her styling and make-up definitely proves to be a distraction. The fact that Hani was wearing clothes different from the ones she was “rescued” in only three days after Salar left her couldn’t possibly go unnoticed. Such small distractions effect the continuity of the chain of events and make you wonder about aspects which are not even important!
I love the way the power of dua has been shown in this drama throughout. Salma’s entry in this episode came as a complete surprise. The way she helped Hani and the manner in which her husband supported her was really touching. No one can understand the plight of a person who is desperately in love more than Salma therefore she will eventually help Saad find Hani. Until last week, it was difficult to predict how these two will finally get their happy ending but after tonight’s episode there are absolutely no hurdles in Saad and Hani’s way. In the previous episode Tania wanted to leave because she felt she wasn’t needed any more but she also changed her decision tonight. Tania’s support for Saad didn’t come as a surprise since her character has always been positive.
The background score was also used effectively tonight, with the exception of the scene in which Salar was talking to his mother. In rest of the scenes it fit in perfectly and added to the overall impact these scenes had. Once again Saad is hopelessly wishing that he will get his Hani back and this time around Hani too has realized her true feelings for Saad therefore the situation is completely different. Uzair Jaswal and Sadia Khan look great together on-screen, the chemistry that these two share along with the way their story has been written makes their love story one of my favorites. Just like every other episode of this play, this one too had some of the most beautiful dialogues and even the poetry in the background was spell-binding.
I will be watching this episode a few times again before the next one airs. Looking forward to a fantastic ending to a beautiful love story which had my undivided attention throughout.

In her recent interview with Nida, she talked about herself as Feroze Khan, on question, “If you are made Feroze Khan for a day, what would you do to bring change in him?”
Replying to the question, Shazeal Shaukat said, “Every body can get fame but you should stay grounded, don’t forget your roots, we get arrogant with people without knowing what they are going through, I always think like that, for me who ever that person is, I try to be equal with everyone from the staff of my set as I don’t know what they are going through, I don’t want to sound rude and also they should not feel that we are superior or of a bigger stature, I would change that thing in me”. Here is when she said these things.
