What is the new normal? The media’s role in desensitizing the audience.

0

It is said that if you view acts of violence/ aggression and the likes, it in turn reduces our responsiveness to them thereby making them appear normal to us. Seeing a pattern of behaviour over and over again, we tend to subconsciously accept it. Talking to my sister who resides in Karachi, I often hear her say “Yeh toh yahan roz ki baat hai…” as if a bombing was as commonplace as fireworks at a wedding. People have a lukewarm response at most when narrating the latest target killing, tact of terrorism, etc. Similarly, we the audience are being routinely exposed to drama after drama that are passing on violence and abuse as if they were promoting some new blend of chai. Has abuse become something we now readily accept as a part of life? Is putting up with violence the prerequisite for a girl getting married? How many such concepts are quickly creeping into our dramas making them the new normal?

Browse through any random drama and you’d come across some common themes- dusri shadi, women putting up with abuse because their husband lost their cool, talaaq, jadu and jahalat. We are repeatedly seeing women being mistreated, ridiculed, humiliated, raped and yet it is simply a part of the storyline and in the end, the women pretend like nothing was ever wrong- a few quick tears and all is well with the world. I often wonder where the writers who pen these storylines seek inspiration for their creativity? Is our society embedded in such vices and are we being ignorant of shrugging them off or is this slowly becoming something we are ready to accept as a part of the society we live in?

What good can come of out showing a man who takes another wife and then justifying his reasons for it? Is there nothing a woman can say or do to ensure her man will remain faithful to her for the years she gives to her marriage? Why is it that every time there’s an argument between a husband and wife the wife is either slapped into submission or shown the door with a divorce? Have we seriously become so numb that we watch all of this unfolding on our televisions without so much as flinching? Soon there will be a time when every girl getting married assumes her husband is entitled to abusing her as he pleases and she will become accepting of this treatment. Are we creating a breed of domesticated, unthinking women who have little purpose in life except putting up with whatever they are subject to? I am seriously frustrated with the line-up of dramas that deal with some or all of these issues and never actually make a point. Can we please just put an end to all this rubbish?

Yours in watching,

What is so special about Turkish Dramas?

0

Yes seriously, those people who are going gaga over the Turkish plays please enlighten me, what exactly is it about these plays that is so different or unique and obviously appealing that I find so many people praising these plays and of course following them. Turkish dramas have been criticized to the limit, I know that but the fact is that they have a huge fan following. I have witnessed it around me and I also know it because of the number of people who watch these dramas online. People may not have the “courage” to say outright that these dramas are great and we love them because there will be too many people “judging” them then but there is a big “silent” majority who follows these dramas. I have nothing against Turkish dramas; I am definitely not the part of the “group” that dislikes Turkish dramas solely because they are foreign! I tried watching Ishq-e-Mamnu when it went on air because practically every second person around me was talking about it, like it was something very special but I found the whole dubbing factor a huge put off and couldn’t watch it. I must confess though that based on the opinions of many people I know, I did feel like I was missing out something big.

ishq e mamno

Things have changed greatly now in the past few months, even if you don’t like something about these plays, you still ended up watching a few minutes of a Turkish play every now and then while switching channels or out of sheer curiosity because they are being aired on every single channel and also because sometimes it seems like Turkish plays are all that there is on television at a given time. I ended up watching a few episodes of these Turkish plays in bits and pieces and I think I got the gist of all the stories quite well. Most of the stories revolve around rich families with twisted morals (illegitimate children and extra marital affairs); most of the family members are very actively involved in plotting and planning, young or old.  Yes, there most certainly was a lot of plotting and conspiracies in the few episodes I watched. I watched at least two different plays in which the sisters (or the step sister) were after their Brother-in-Laws. The one on Hum TV is pretty much the same as the twisted sibling stories we see on our screens very often. One sister is holier than thou and the other one is totally opposite – she is out to ruin her sister’s life. The plotting and planning is very different from our dramas (it is much more intricate) but that is what it is. Almost all the stories revolve around married couples and families that have ugly secrets. Don’t we see all of just that in our plays too? The only difference is that the women in our plays are not dressed to kill and the houses are not so beautiful. Yes, some of these dramas proved to be visual treats but nothing more than that. There was nothing about the stories at all that made me stand up and take notice or look forward to more.

junoon tere pyar ka

My opinion is based on watching only a few episodes of some of these plays. I would really like the viewers who like Turkish plays to tell me that what is about these plays that is so different? Is it because of the different faces (I have to say some of them are very pretty!) or is it because people like the settings of the plays which are obviously different too. Is there a Turkish drama on air right now, the story of which does not revolve around family politics of rich families or extra marital affairs? I heard Fatima Gul had a different story but I didn’t watch it at all. I don’t mean to be sarcastic or critical, I am just very curious to hear what is it that the viewers like about these plays. Feel free to share your thoughts.

But everyone got suspicious when the lead star of the movie Shaan Shahid didn’t show up at the trailer launch. As far as things have progressed Shaan is keeping himself distant from the promotional events of his own film.

What is fishy with Yalghaar?

The tension arose more when he didn’t even show up at the premiere of the movie. An unknown injury was told to be the cause of his absentee from trailer launch and no explanation has been given for the premiere one.

What is fishy with Yalghaar?

Moreover director of the film Dr. Hassan Waqar Rana introduced every actor of his film on stage. And whom did he forget? Yes you guessed right! Shaan Shahid the lead actor. A reporter had to remind him of his slip about introducing the actor.

No one is commenting on anything as the film is about to release. We wish all goes well with Yalghaar.

Rabia shared that after she lost her mother she came to know how much she loved her. She said that “Muhabbat” is when you love a person but “Ishq” is when you love the person that your lover loves. She says that since her mother’s death i.e. almost eight years, she has dedicated her whole life for the people her mother used to love; her father, her sisters. She said that she tries her level best to value every single wish of her sisters because she knows that, that’s what her mother would have wanted.

What Happens In Pakistan, Stays In Pakistan! :)

0

Ohkay on this website, we have an influx of those regular readers who reside outside Pakistan, so I thought of coming up with an article to which most of them in fact all of them can relate. :)

I think the excitement of visiting Pakistan every single time is beyond explainable. No matter where you live, no matter how much settled you are in your routine, the vacation to Pakistan is the most anticipated thing & worth the wait. I myself always look forward to visiting Pakistan no matter what the time span of my stay is but by the end I always feel that you just can’t get enough of your homeland.

Here’s a list of some of the perks of visiting Pakistan, every single time: :)

The Dose of Urdu:

I must say this fact brings a smile to my face that the moment I step into Pakistan, I get to hear my mother tongue in my surroundings. I think nothing beats the connection you feel the moment you hear Urdu all around you. No matter where you go, the relation & the bonding you feel with the people who share the same language as you is unexplainably appeasing.

Good Old Family:

For me, the best part about visiting Pakistan is meeting the grandparents & all the elders of your family, in fact the whole bunch of relatives. The peace & happiness that you feel after meeting your people, after seeing those familiar faces eradicates all the hassle of travelling. Nothing beats the warm welcome that you experience the moment you meet your family.

Shopping Till You’re Dropping:

Not sure about the gents but for the ladies, hands down, this has to be the best perk of visiting Pakistan. Discussions on the latest trends, the designers & all those shopping trips are the best part of the the whole journey. I mean who doesn’t like stocking up the apparels for your new wardrobe? Coming to Pakistan & not to shop till you drop is something impossible. I enjoy my fair share of those bargains with the ‘Pathan’ vendors, I must say they do come up with all sorts of tricky taglines to sell the fabric, which you can never think of & yes, the most important aspect of the trip to Pakistan is the regular trips to the family tailor, lol.

Cravings of Pakistani Food:

Ohkay, we know, we all have that one specific dhabba that we all want to visit before leaving Pakistan. I make sure I compile a list of the places that I want to visit & the food I want to eat because there are plenty of places that have helped in spoiling our taste buds. No matter where you eat, nothing beats Pakistani food & especially the food of those road-side stalls is to die for.

North Indian Street Food

The Weddings:

No matter what time of the year it is when you visit Pakistan, you always get to attend the wedding functions during your stay. All those vibrant colors, the long discussion, everything related to the festivity is something to look forward to & luckily if the wedding that you get to attend is of the immediate family member then the excitement is sky-high.

The Night Long Discussions:

Who doesn’t do it? The best part of visiting your family is staying up till late hours of the night just so you talk about everything that has been happening in & around your life. I look forward to these sort of sessions with my cousins the most & I think everyone does it because those discussions are the best way of unwinding with your people.

Mini Trips:

That’s like taking a mini vacation within your vacation. Those short trips that you tend you plan with all the families of your immediate relatives are the most memorable moments of the whole trip. My ancestral home happens to be in Murree so for me, visiting Murree is a compulsory part of every trip that I make to Pakistan. All those gatherings & outings are something worth planning so as to experience a wholesome vacation & not to be forgotten the late-night outings with a bunch of cousins to settle the food cravings are another highlight of your stay.

Remembering The Routes:

Remembering the routes to everywhere you go. Remembering all the places, all the markets, all the roads, ways, even the sign boards has to be the best thing about being in your place & then all of a sudden you realize, things might’ve changed but a lot of them didn’t. I totally enjoy how the whole map is sketched into your memory & helps you in remembering everything related to the journeys you’ve taken on these roads.

M2-1

So, this was my little dedication to the awesome trips we make to our country; our Pakistan. Share what you felt about the article, what you guys look forward to the most when you’re planning your trip & what does your to-do list comprise of? :)

& yes, in the end, nothing beats Pakistan. :D

Keep Supporting,
Cheers,

What Happened When Muhammad Mehfooz Shaheed’s Grave Was Dug

0

A Shaheed has great value in the eyes of Allah, it has been said in the Quran

وَلاَ تَقُولُواْ لِمَنْ يُقْتَلُ فِي سَبيلِ اللّهِ أَمْوَاتٌ بَلْ أَحْيَاء وَلَكِن لاَّ تَشْعُرُونَ

“Those who are killed in the cause of Allah: Do not call them dead.” In fact ! they are living, though you can not perceive that life”.

 

ATV’s Morning Show host Farah Hussain has been conducting the show very well. This time she interviewed the brother of Muhammad Mehfooz Shaheed, who received Nishan-e-Haider. The brother of the Shaheed told her something that was really shocking. He told her that when his brother got the Nishan-e-Haider it was decided that the Shaheed’s dead body will be shifted to another grave. Many people were against the idea because naturally the corpse would have been eaten up by then.

He said that when the grave was dug six months after his brother passed away, a rain cloud appeared out of nowhere and it started drizzling. The grave smelled really good and when the coffin was being lifted there was fresh blood coming out of it. The body looked like it had been buried only minutes ago. Also, the flowers on the coffin were still fresh.

Few American from the US Embassy in Islamabad were divided in a set of two each and were shown this music video for the first time. They were asked to say whatever they felt about the video out loud and the reactions were very amusing. Some felt sorry for the poor kid who was in the video and there were others who questioned what was meant by “mankind angel”!! There were also some who thought the tune was very catchy and many of them liked the cinematography and colors in the video. They also could not make out whether the people in the video were dressed as angels or fairies.

What happened to our Writers?

There is no doubt about that our writers had played a big role in making our dramas globally hit. Whether we talk about Umera Ahmed or Khalil ur Rehman Qamar, their thought provoking stories had given drama industry a recognition. Of course we do admire our actors/actresses, directors and production houses but what attracts audience is a brilliant storyline and a strong plot that send some positive messages as well to the audience. Cast, direction and Production is secondary and that’s the reason why we had witnessed many star studded downers recently.

Dragging is there and I accept it and we had indeed talked about it zillion of times. In my opinion dragging is acceptable unless a story of a particular play is entertaining us for example Pyaray Afzal, we all know that ARY had dragged this play up till 37 episodes but we all have enjoyed this drama and our emotions were quite high about it.However if our writers continue to provide us with stories that are full of clichés and controversies then soon there will be a decline of this growing industry.

well-duh-tell-us-something-new-sherlock

Now let’s take a week review of those high budgeted dramas airing these days and analyse how our writers have failed us in terms of quality entertainment.

Aik Pal: This is supposed to be a mega project of HUM TV but I guess in production. Mega project nowadays means a large villa and some luxury cars. Ok for many of you out there the story might seems to be interesting but for me it’s actually very boring. The plot is good but storyline to be honest isn’t attractive at all. We all know that how flat is the story, there is one good guy and one bad guy that’s it. This drama got no curiosity as what will happen next neither it contains any suspense.

Dosri Biwi: “Naam hi kafi hai”, I mean do I need to say anything. Dosri biwi is the latest obsession from our drama writers and ARY Digital thought that promoting this kind of pathetic play would actually increase the TRP. Come on For God sake we don’t need picture quality we need thought provoking stories. I am not watching this brilliant stuff so can’t comment more about it.

drama meme

 

Zid: WOOH! Yet another high budgeted drama shot in America, probably producers’ favourite country. So drama took off with a good pace and first five episodes were interesting but now it has gone totally baseless. Seriously what this drama is all about? What writers wants us to understand? All I could understand in this drama that everyone got their own thinking and they demand for their rights, however the way they demand for the rights is not correct. So now what else is remaining in this drama when all cards were already revealed by the writer? Saman left the house and Omar is not making any effort to bring her back. What Saman wants now? What Rukhi wants? What Omar wants? Scenes are incomplete and didn’t make any sense.

Chup Raho: wow! Wow! Wow! Yet another masterpiece brought to you by Samira Fazal and ARY Digital. “bahi pair pakar ke maafi maangte hain agar koi ghalti hogai hum audience se lekin is torture se bahar nikaalo”. This drama is surely on an endless path and making no sense at all. “Rameen ke adventure hain ke khatam hi nahi ho rhe”. Rameen’s infinite stupidity is making me sick and the story is just going round and round in circles. I would like to request samira fazal please stop writing for a while and make your return when you get some good logical stories in your mind. Let’s see what Alvida will offer us in future.

please-stop-this-now

Jackson Heights: This 24 instalment drama could have been easily wrapped up in 16 to 18 episodes but our producers and directors love to drag it. “In ka khaana hazam jo nahi hota drag kiye bagher”. Forget dragging but seriously I witnessed many loopholes in the story. Salma is such a darling! I would like to ask Vasay Chaudhry where I can find this type of wife who can be treated as a doormat despite being an independent bread winner. On the other hand Michelle is such a cute baby who had rejected her trusted friend and is going to marry a boy who is half of her age and just arrived from Pakistan. Vasay sahab your story was different and I appreciate it but you still need to work on your script and learn to design some sensible characters.

common sense

Seriously by looking at the list above you will ask yourself what happened to our writers. Soap like “Susraal Mera” was good than these high budgeted dramas. Only Digest Writer and Goyaa are there to rescue us.

I am not watching “Sadqey Tumhaare” but let’s see what Khalil ur Rehman will offer us in “Zulekha bin Yusuf”. Furthermore we definitely need new writers with resplendent stories.What do you guys have to say on this topic?

Talking about how his husband reacted to the divorce, she said, “Fawad had a different scenario, my family urged Fawad to follow all the court proceedings because I was a celebrity and family didn’t want me to follow the proceedings, Fawad got fainted in the court when he was being forced to sign the divorce papers, My brother had to take him to the hospital first. Fawad didn’t want to divorce me. It was my family who wanted me to get a divorce. Also, for me Fawad was not romantic husband, he was more of a friend to me. He was groomed, he was social but he didn’t keep a romantic relationship with me, I was more like a friend for him, he didn’t know about the duties of a husband”. Here is the link to the video:
