I love one thing about Pyarai Afzal; The characters of the show are etched out so perfectly and flawlessly that sometimes we forget that we are watching a drama and not a real life scene. From chamkeeli sisters, Farah and Lubna, to simple Arifa and pyarai Afzal; every character speaks for itself effortlessly. This show has the power that compel viewers to glue to their television screens till the last scene.No matter how much stressed you are, you will forget everything once you will become part of Pyarai Afzal’s world.

Afzal always dreamt about Farah;For him, Farah is that earnest yearning of his life which seems almost impossible for him to get accomplished. He always underestimated himself in front of her because deep inside, he knows that his past overshadows every good aspect of him.But when Lubna gave him 2 lacs per month offer along with having an affair with Farah for four months,he was out of his senses.He was not shocked to know that he will be a “lakh pati” soon,  but he heard something that he never expected.

 Despite of imagining Farah all the time,how can he believe what he just heard ? To have an affair with a girl about whom he dreams always, what else one can expect from him except fainting on the spot.The shock didn’t end at just fainting – aftermaths of it were yet to be followed. Afzal’s shivering sequence was too intense and it was clearly depicting his state. I loved everything about the part from his sheer shivering state to his thoughts equipped with Farah in his life in whatever way. I must say in any show, love in its purest form was described at its best today. Superb homework!

Lubna expected that Afzal won’t be giving any response after knowing the scenario and explained everything to Lubna like a teacher that what should her response be when a certain question will be asked from her by her parents. For every possible question, she gave her a lesson and asked her to go to her parents but wait.. ! Lubna got a call from Afzal and he accepted their offer with open heart. It was so cute to hear how purely Afzal is taking this fake relationship whereas Lubna was taking it to the materialistic side.

Everything went against their plan and Farah,being confused and unable to handle the situation uttered  Afzal’s name. Wesay, according to me, if Lubna was put in such kind of situation than she could have handled the situation intelligently and cleverly unlike Farah who had nothing to say.

The letter mystry is still not openly revealed but my prediction says that its Afzal who is writing these letters to himself. I am liking everything about the show and really looking forward to the next episode.

I am extremely sorry for reviewing it late as I was not well for many days.

So, 20 episodes down and Farah is still unaware of the fact that she loves Afzal;Or maybe she knows but hesitating in confessing it infront of everyone. Whatever the reason maybe, I started watching this show with a note that tonight, this love thingee should be confessed by Farah. And I am glad that they put a step ahead of what Farah thinks and feels for Afzal now. Because despite of that fun element and strong dialogues, from last couple of episodes, I was thinking that they are dragging this show and they should let Farah disclose that she is in love with Afzal.

Today, we saw more of concern from Maulvi Saheb for his son. Now, at this point, we all know that not only Maulvi Saheb but Afzal’s whole family is extremely worried for Afzal and loves him to the fullest. So, I think that concern scenes should now be ended and they should find something else to show whenever they think to show Afzal’s family.

Another thing that I pondered upon today was that “Bhaie” part where everyone called him “Afzal Bhaie, Afzal Bhaie” and Afzal took it so seriously. I mean, I know that it feels awkward when no one talks to you and soon after an incident everyone start paying regards to you. But why they have to highlight that word “bhaie” in that ? Are we living in such society where “bhaie” is taken in terms of an underworld don rather than an “actual bhaie” ? Bhaie ko bhaie he rehnay dou bhaie..

Moving on to Farah and Lubna, Farah se zyada pagal khatoon mai ne aaj tak nahi dekhi; She is so much confused about what she thinks and what she speaks. On her visit to psychiatrist, she was not even sure what she spoke about earlier and what she should tell to him.By the way, as soon as I saw Vasay Chaudry in psychiatrist role, I smelled something funny in forthcoming scenes but he proved himself that he is not better with comedy roles only but is good when it comes to act serious too.

Farah’s father was so right that sole reason of Farah not telling her mother about her feelings is the communication gap between her and Farah. Its duty of mothers that they should create such atmosphere at home where daughters feel close to them. I have seen many cases where daughters are so close to their mothers that even it’s so hard to guess whether they are mother-daughter or friends and I am glad that I am among those types.. :)

Immediately after seeing Sohai Ali Abro in the serial, I guessed that she will definitely be liking Afzal in next episodes and that is what exactly happened.Its the time when Afzal should give her a signal that he is not at all interested in her “pink lipstick” but in her “chicken ginger”..

Only scene that gave a new turn to the story was the discussion between Farah and Lubna. Farah was not ready to confess her love for Afzal and Lubna was not ready to accept that Farah is telling her the truth. And as soon as Farah went to Lubna to clarify herself again, Lubna asked for permission that if Farah is not in love with Afzal than permit her to marry Afzal.. Uss k baad kya tha..aik zor daar thappar jis ke goonj sab ne suni.. 

As far as I can predict, that was a stunt performed brilliantly by Lubna just to let Farah accept that she wants Afzal in her life. Another thing that can be guessed is that she was seriously asking Farah for her marriage to Afzal.What do you think ? I would love to read your feedback.

Love,for people like Afzal ,is the purest of the pure form of affection and respect. While for people like Mehtaab,its more of craze- Craze to get something ,to own something just the way they want , rather than playing with the cards intelligently.

Afzal’s love for Farah is of the type that is rarely found these days. But when it rains, it pours and same is the case with Afzal; Afzal’s affection is not merely the matter of words. He loves Farah beyond any limitations and above all with no expectations and for that, he seems always ready to face any kind of situation that he comes across with.

Whereas, Mehtaab’s love is more like that of a child’s urge to get a toy and play with it. I am not saying that it’s just his attraction towards Farah that made him this way. His love was pure too but right from his childhood, he got what he desired for and that made him stubborn and pampered. Now when he faced the real life challenge ,he expected the same but this time it was a matter of life and death plus he failed to compromise on Farah letting go out of his life. So collectively, all that was buried inside him for so many days came out as revenge in the form of burning the thing that was closest to Farah.

I really like the fact about Pyarai Afzal that nothing has been portrayed overboard. Mehtab’s exit from the show could have been much more wild as compared to what was shown. But what he did was just a cute little silent revenge from his side. Further, his mother could have created the mess but that part also went absolutely normal – rather much lighter than our expectations.

Arfa proved that she is not only caring,loving,concerned and loyal sister but also a wake up alarm for Afzal whenever she finds him suspicious.The dialogues and that light nok jhonk is what that makes their relation look beautiful always.The rungeeli sisters, Farah and lubna, finally decided that Afzal part should now come to an end in their lives but Afzal, for the first time, took a step for himself and credit goes to his friend who did the right thing at the right time.

Sometimes,in this show, they take care of even minutest details like I was impressed by the director’s attempt to show Maulvi Saheb drinking water with three pauses.I am glad that they always succeed in showing Maulvi saheb as ultra optimistic person in this show .I really enjoyed Afzal and his father conversation today; Especially, when his father asked him,“shaadi kar k ittela dou gay ya humain bhi bulao gay“.Maulvi Saheb’s concern and Afzal’s loyalty to his father is another example of pure relationship in this show.

Afzal left Maulvi Saheb in confusion when he told him that its his boss’s daughter with whom he wants to get married and they, themselves, invited Afzal and his family for the dinner. From last couple of episodes, I was thinking about some twist related to Arfa’s misunderstanding of thinking Lubna as the mystery girl. But that is revealed  at the end of this episode too and we are left with questions in our mind again- whats next ?

I thoroughly enjoy each and every dialogue of this show every time. Brilliant piece of art-work by Khalil-ur-Rehman. Cant wait for next episode.

Just finished watching this week’s installment and all I said is Wow! What an episode. No matter how much exhausted you are, Serials like Pyarai Afzal are not less than a cool breeze that blows and freshen up your mind-state.Hamza Ali stole the limelight once again this week and I got spell bounded with every word that he uttered and every expression he gave throughout the episode. Perfect piece of acting by him!

It seems that destiny has planned something else for Afzal and Farah’s relation and this is the reason why he missed the call when Farah was about to break the ice in front of her parents. Arfa,knowing a part of reality decided not to tell anything about that call. Because for her,Lubna is the princess of Afzal’s dreams and Farah is the evil sister who is creating hurdles for them. So being a well-wisher,she decided better to stay out of it.

Afzal’s changed life style has now started bringing impact on his friends. His loyalty towards his friends always remained unquestioned and for that his friends never compelled him to pick the way that goes against his and his parents will. And now that his friend was in need of cash, Afzal was ready to give it in place of him without having any second thought. It has been said, kabhi kabhi aik lamha he kaafi hota hai and that was the moment when his friend decided that he won’t be taking part in anything that involves gamble in it from now on.

Lubna is a perfect planner; She always know what to do next and for that Farah relies on her always and this time it was Lubna again who forced Farah to get ready and I must admit that Aiza Khan looked ravishing and entrancing; Navy Blue suited her so well. Farah’s “Crisis Management” technique failed badly when she came to know that Afzal was right there at her door. Did anyone notice ever that figure 9 is of prime importance in this show; Anything important that has to take place always revolve around this figure, haan, a.m. and p.m. varies.. :)

Afzal’s meeting with Farah’s father was another interesting part of today’s episode. The way he answered every single question of his FIL-to be was more than enough to satisfy his expectations from Afzal. He was impressed by Afzal right from the day when he left the job after being accused of what he had not done and there was no room of doubt left when he met him and heard  Afzal’s point of view about his and Farah’s relation. Despite of the fact that he was not trained by Farah and Lubna this time, all the do’s and dont’s were handled by Afzal really well. The look at Afzal’s face when Farah entered dining area worth million dollar.

After the sad demise of Farah’s plan :p , she discussed rather yelled at Afzal (like always) that what he has to do next – ofcourse, with the help of Lubna. Goofy hai na Farah bechaari.. At that time, all I felt was the difference in Farah and Lubna’s tones – Former shouting out loud and latter speaking softly and politely. I felt bad when Afzal was left helpless by being forced to agree to what Farah and Lubna said.

I am not going to unveil the charm by narrating the preview of next episode but I want to tell that we will be seeing Mehtab in next episode again.. :)

What an episode it was.. I don’t know why but everytime I watch this show,I like it even more than before. Once again, Hamza Ali stole the limelight today; Though I am not a die-hard fan of HAA,still I am finding his acting quite promising.Being first serial of having male actor as protagonist, this show is really attracting the viewers and compelling them even more to watch it.

Aiza seemed so loud and rude as compared to other episodes today where she was always caught confused and begging Lubna to help her in getting out of the fuss she has created.Now that they have created that not-so-real situation,they have to bear the consequences too; With this thought, Lubna made it very clear to Farah that there is no margin left in order to back off from the whole situation.

I found Farah’s mother very unreasonable today. I mean after knowing whole story that why he left his job,how can she be so sure that Afzal will leave Farah just like that. Offering him cash in replacement of Farah was not at all a good idea by her and that is the reason why her husband was not ready to second her decision.

Farah called Afzal to make everything clear to him but poor Afzal was unable to hear and understand anything because he was in state of sheer shock. I mean waking up by hearing the voice of whom  you dream about all the time was nothing more than a miracle for him; He is taking all this matter like a serious lover who wants to pay the bill as if he is going to dine out with his real life girlfriend- that was like an awww moment.. :p His meeting with Farah was really indeed a treat to watch. Farah was yelling out so loudly that I felt pity for pyarai Afzal who was all set to have a delightful afternoon that will be spent with Farah.

Meanwhile, Lubna and Farah were giving him lessons,Arifa came to know that Afzal left the job. Did you also feel or it was just me who found that flashback pretty clueless.Khair leave that, Afzal and Arifa’s strong bond was witnessed by us once again as they both were upset at their own places – Afzal,being the culprit and lying to his sister and Arifa,who felt as if she was cheated by her dear brother that made her cry.

Now that mulaakat scene was way too indigestible for me.How can Farah’s mother be so rude that she didnot want Afzal to come in.Okay,I can understand that it was part of her so called test but it was matter of his health. Afzal bhi dheet tha, cheenkta raha magar “chaiye” nahi pe.During whole discussion,Afzal was so honest with his words but Farah’s mother was turning even more and more rough with every statement she gave.Afzal didnot take anything on his nerves and dealt everything with “khanda paishaani” :p .. Bravo.. :)

I can smell Lubna falling for Afzal after watching few incidents in last couple of episodes. Are you feeling the same?  Do share your views about today’s episode.

Afzal’s longing for Farah has attained another level where he craves for Farah but cannot express,where he dreams for her but forgets everything everytime she comes infront of him. With a hope of making Farah a permanent part of his life, he asked his parents to visit Farah’s parents but he never counted the real life consequence in his plan. And when he got rejected by Farah,he was back to what he was before – rather even worse than ever before. He was unable to bear the pain of letting Farah go out of his life and to keep his mind distracted of her thoughts, he adopted every bad thing that can help him to forget the refusal.Farah did no good by insulting Afzal; Poor Afzal was unable to utter a single word after hearing what she said.

Jo chup kharay gaalyaan sun laitay hain na woh badnaam nahi kartay..

Lubna was so right about Afzal ; How can he even think of destroying Farah’s image in other’s eye. Afzal was one of his own kinds and Lubna knew it very well. Afzal knows how to respect women and if Farah was sensible enough, she might had the whole “8 lakh waali nokri” in mind for which she hired him. If not then than how can he think of putting a question mark on her character now. She made Farah realize that she should have shown patience which she lacks.

Afzal was all set to leave Hyderabad but it was his concern,love and respect for his mother that was not letting him take this very step.

Mera Zameer mujhe keh raha hai k chala jaa..

Tou phir maa se kyu pooch rahay ho chalay jao..

Chala jaoun ga Saajid, bus mujhe koi ye bata dai k maa bari hai ya zameer bara hai..

And at that very moment, his friend,Saajid,was completely short of words. The whole sequence, the silence with which Afzal left and the answer Alladyo gave, Batao na uss ko.. Maa bari hoti hai.. left mark deep inside my heart. This is the beauty of Khalil ur Rehmaan dialogues – When everything seems quiet, silence breaks the ice.

I really like the fact that both Afzal and Farah’s family share good regards for each other. Unlike typical serials,where after being insulted or rejected, all families are left with is rivalry or somewhat close to that.

Arifa turned out to be evil yet concerned tonight when she came to know that her brother was insulted by Farah right in the middle of street.Her reaction to the situation was too natural to believe and I literally felt that I was watching a real life scene; the strength of siblings relation was at its peak today.

Arifa knows when and how to react.She has all the elements that make a perfect sister – she smiles when she sees her brother happy, she cries when her brother betrays her and she can even switch herself into an evil immediately as and when she feels that her brother was insulted.Indeed,she is a typical eastern sister and I mean no harm in saying that!

Arifa revealed the letters mystery infront of Farah and Lubna and by the time, I was completely convinced that it will be Farah as she knows that Afzal won’t reveal her identity out of respect,she played with her emotions just like typical rich spoil girls by writing him letters.But I was proved wrong next minute when Farah visited Arifa and clarified everything infront of her mother. It was so nice and surprising to see how blindly Afzal’s mother trusted Farah.

From asking for coffee to the gift they gave, every action of Afzal’s family was depicting that how open heartedly and without holding any grudge,they welcomed Farah and Lubna.

It was so sad to see Afzal stepping in gambling again; I mean there are other ways with the help of which a person can keep oneself distracted  from all the thoughts but for Afzal,if not gambling, than what would it be ?Afzal packed his belongings as he finally came to a decision that he will no longer stay in Hyderabad.After watching tonight’s episode,according to me, these lines fit best on Afzal’s situation:

Jisay mai keh nahi sakta usai mai farz karta houn..
Chalo mai farz karta houn, mujhe tum se mohabbat hai..

I would love to read your comments about today’s episode.

“It is good to have an end to a journey; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.” Today marks the end of a wonderful journey – a journey we all lived, a journey we all cherished ,a journey that will be remembered and will truly be missed for a long long time.

Yasmeen tried her best to convince every single person of Afzal’s family to accept the fact that there is no place for her in their house. Afzal’s family loved Yasmeen from the day she came in their lives, but they never thought of her as Afzal’s wife to be and now that everyone was familiar with the hidden truth, there was no reason for Yasmeen to elongate her stay in Hyderabad.

Farah’s love for Afzal proved to be so pure that she accepted that all this while, she was the one who wrote letters to Afzal. Sabtain wanted to marry Lubna but she put a condition infront of him before accepting his proposal ; He has to make Farah realize the power of true love. But he failed completely; Eventually, it was Yasmeen who turned the table and compelled Farah to confess her love for Afzal. Indirectly, it was a plus for Sabtain and Lubna was all hers in the end.

I am completely speechless and have no words to explain my state of mind. I am unable to express my feelings after watching this end to a wonderful journey. Afzal and Farah waited and waited for each other’s confession for so long or confession hue bhi tou kesi.. From the day , when Afzal became bhaie ,I had this thing in my mind that Afzal will ultimately pay for killing those people; No matter whether they were innocent or culprit, he took lives and he will have to pay for that. Deep down in my heart, there was another corner that was yelling that Afzal should not die and I was sincerely indented at that corner’s side and was hoping for a very happy ending to such an eventful journey.  But at the end, it was Khaleel Saheb’s script and with his signature style, he came up with a real sad end to a stupendous journey. Still, I absolutely loved the direction of very last scene where Afzal confessed his love. Farah was waiting for him to talk more and more while Afzal was taking his last breath.. jaanay woh kesay log thai jin k pyar ko pyar mila.. 

The success of this show is not merely result of single person’s struggle. It is an outcome of hard work of each and every cast and crew member of Pyarai Afzal team. Dialogues were the soul of this show; Khalil ur Rehmaan Saheb penned down a wonderful script and to give life to the splendid story , cast of the show evolved and extracted the best out of themselves. I am unable to figure out even a single name whose performance was not up-to-mark. Hamza Ali Abbasi outdid himself and this character of male protagonist,Afzal, will surely leave a mark and will prove out to be turning point in his acting career . Aiza Khan and Sohai were under a dark shadow of  type-cast ; Farah Ibrahim and Yasmeen’s role gave them a completely new look and unleashed them from a shell of doing same roles again and again. I am sure, after this serial, we will see them signing variety of different roles. Firdous Jamal did a splendid job and turned out to be most beloved Maulvi and father, he proved himself as a versatile actor and more than that he proved people’s perception regarding Maulvi’s to be wrong. Arfa and Lubna were the best and most loyal sisters I have ever came across in any show.

Overall, it was an epic show with powerful dialogues, mesmerizing characters and flawless performances. Pyarai Afzal will definitely be missed and I am guessing that it will be going to turn out as an old classic for our next generations..

Rabia Basharat.

P.S I would like to thank each one of you for making this journey memorable and enjoyable. Special thanks to Ammar, Aiman, Naveed Zarrar, Areeba Mohsin, Sharmeen, Atty, A, Shariq and Malika and each and everyone of you for enduring me and my reviews, for your continuous support,appreciation and for pushing me to the extent through the long discussions that made me fall in love with this show even more.. :)

Kahan se shuru huai thai or kahan pohanch gayai.. This is what that comes in my mind whenever I think of this show now. I feel extremely sorry for all fans of Pyarai Afzal, including me, because this show started with a great note and look where we are standing now. First of all, having male protagonist and then Khalil Saheb’s powerful dialogues made this show most anticipated one. Episode after episode, we kept on falling in love with this show but after 20 episodes, this show started losing its charm.

I have no clue why are they doing this to the brilliantly written script; I mean this extension is totally uncalled for. We wowed to see Afzal happy  ,we got sad when Afzal cried but now, nothing comes in my mind that can help me to connect to the characters.

I agree with the fact that dialogues were the reason for which this show got famous and loved by all. But repetition of same dialogues and same situations adds nothing but gives you a feeling as if you are watching the same incident again and again.

Afzal rejected Yasmeen when Yasmeen confronted him and spoke her heart out. Afzal loved Farah throughout his life and now that he knows that he is not capable of getting married to her so there was no chance of him getting married to someone else too.

Afzal parents are still longing for him and he misses them equally. His sister, Arfa – who was once closest to him, cries for him day and night and prays for him. Rukayya knew that Afzal liked Farah and for that whenever Farah visits her, she feels as if her own son is sitting in front of her.

Lubna’s so called love is of no use till now because Farah has seriously become a “dheet haddi” ; I mean hadh ho gaye ab tou, she is ready to be engaged to that psychiatrist but has no guts to tell Afzal about her feelings for him. On the other side, Afzal bhi dhun ka pakka ho gaya hai, that slap of rejection somehow made him egoistic and now he wants to get engaged too – after knowing that Farah is getting engaged.

After rejecting her, Afzal asked Yasmeen ;  I mean seriously , was it that much easier for him ? He proposed her just like that and thankfully ,she rejected her because she knew that he loves Farah and both of them will never live a happy life because when it comes to Afzal, Farah’s love overpowers Yasmeen’s affection.

But wait.. Yasmeen kahan reh sakti thei peechay.. She called Afzal and told him that she is ready for engagement but with a condition that he has to marry him and will never leave her half-way. Afzal is now unable to stand Farah’s association with someone other than him and inreturn,he is putting his own life at stake ; Taking decision of getting married to someone whom you never loved isnot clever act indeed or woh bhi badlay ke aag mai..

Thats all what I extracted from past few episodes. Still, I can’t smell this show heading towards its ending. Are you ?

Do share your thoughts about your journey with Pyarai Afzal so far.

Rabia Basharat.

P.S. I was busy with personal stuff , you will get to read regular reviews from now on.

By far, we have seen that Afzal leaves Hyderabad just for the sake of becoming an established entity; He knew that this was the reason for which he got rejected by Farah. It was so interesting to see that how Afzal’s family reacted after knowing the fact that Afzal is gone. Maulvi Saheb’s concern didnot come to end but he got anxious to know whether Afzal had some cash to spend or not. Afzal’s mother got shocked but didnot put a glance of sadness at her face just for the sake of not letting her husband know that she is worried. Inshort, both of them looked apparently happy, but deep inside they were completely broken.

No one can be as dumb as Farah. I am seriously not getting what on earth she wants ? And why she is not clear about her aims. Firstly, she played with emotions of Mehtaab. To clean bowled Mehtaab, she took help from poor Afzal.Then played with his emotions because she wanted to go abroad for Mphil. And now that all obstacles are completely vanished, she decided to not go abroad but will do Mphil from Karachi.And now today,she seemed confused again that she should not go to Karachi. Her father is so right.. wakaie, dimaagh ka aalu bana deya hai..

Farah’s discussions with her sister clearly depict that she has developed feelings for Afzal. Unlike Lubna and Arifa, I guessed it not merely because she keeps on talking and asking about Afzal but my guess also relates to Farah’s feeling for Mehtaab. Now that she is in love with Afzal, she came to know that how badly Mehtaab got hurt when she rejected him.

Babu Hameed, Afzal’s first friend in Karachi, helped him to go through his hard time.. Ya ye kehna chahye that Afzal helped him. This way or that way, within very short span of time, they became good friends as if they were together since their childhood.

I am really liking Sohail Ali Abro’s character in this show. Her first encounter with Afzal at her own house was fun to watch. It was pretty much predictable that sooner or later Yasmeen will fall for Afzal and tonight’s episode gave her strong reason for that.

Be it his love for Farah, respect for his parents or loyalty towards her sister, Afzal proved himself to be an extremist. And tonight, we came across his hidden trait and that is to fight for right. It was his father’s teaching that gave him courage to never fear a man because at the end of the day a man is the creature of Allah who wants a man to fear him only.Afzal’s fight with Wali was interesting to watch and I enjoyed every dialogue during their fight; The way Afzal handled wali after having that lethal fight was another treat to watch. So for me, the highlight of today’s episode was Afzal and Wali’s encounter and the scenes after that; Inshort, last half of the show compelled me to watch the show till end.

First half of the show was a bit dragged and I lost my interest somewhere in the middle of episode.But Wali’s part brought my interest back into the show. Ab dekhna ye hai whether Farah will go to Karachi or not ?

I would love to read your feedback about today’s episode.

24 episodes down and this show is still entertaining as it was in its first half. Despite of the fact that story is unfolding quite slowly, still strong dialogues and above all its perfect cast is more than enough to  glue its viewers in front of their television screens. Further, this show is bringing back the “family drama” trend and I hope that drama-makers will now be more sensitive in producing the quality content – Content that all of us can comfortably watch and enjoy with our families.

When a child is in trouble, a mother’s instinct tells her about the ongoing crisis through which her child is passing. But this time, it was not only Afzal’s mother – Every person related to Afzal felt as if there is some ongoing trouble at Afzal’s end. Yasmeen’s impatience clearly depicted that how much worried she is for Afzal. Kher se , we came to know that Afzal is all well and he will be discharged within few days.

Now coming to Hyderabad, Farah’s every single action narrated that she is not at all feeling comfortable after rejecting Afzal. This is the time when the feeling of remorse and regret of refusal is burning her deep inside and for the peace of her mind, she decided to go to Karachi with her Father. Indeed, it felt very nice to watch how she slept in the car just for the sake of going to Karachi to look for Afzal – After all, she knew that she won’t be able to wake up early in the morning and she didnot want to take any risk this time.

Farah’s visit to Yasmeen was quite interesting to watch; The way Farah inquired all “aglee pichlee”  stories from Yasmeen showed how desperately she is yearning for Afzal. There was a huge grin on my  face while watching whole of Farah and Yasmeen’s “rapid fire round”.

Farah took no notice that she was talking to her father when she came back from Yasmeen’s home – Ofcourse, she was habitual of using those few trademark words every time she opens her mouth and now that she is all alone with her father, she can’t help herself to stop uttering them. She was unable to open up infront of anyone so she started cursing Lubna after meeting Yasmeen. Farah’s rage and jealousy pointed out nothing but her love for Afzal.

On the other side, Lubna’s disappointment after knowing  the details showed that she was in no way pretending to love Afzal – rather she was actually fond of Afzal. Yasmeen apni jaga paraishan thei that who Farah is and whats her relation with Afzal. Her mother was clever enough to judge that who will come for a security guard unless there is some ongoing chemistry between them?

Wali’s cheapness was at its peak today but this time Yasmeen confronted him confidently because she knows that Afzal will be there for her now. I laughed every-time Khala slapped her bhaanja – he deserves to be slapped again and again. Episode ended with a very sad note; Babu Hameed became Wali’s victim and I am dead sure, Afzal will not spare him this time.

With whom would you want Afzal to end up ? Farah or Yasmeen ?

I would love to read your comments about this episode.
