Khaas Episode 13 Story Review – Superb
Opening Thoughts – Interesting:
Ohkay so, this episode of Khaas was again very interesting. It showed the transition of Saba in a very convincing manner where she was trying to come out of the thoughts of her loss & trying to give her marriage another chance. Sarwat Nazeer has done it once again, she has picked up a very simple story-line & has turned it into something actually very interesting because personality clash & lack of respect are damaging factors in any relationship & people find it hard to understand them, but this is what the writer has showed that such problems do exist & they not only consume the people involved, but also affect the relationship negatively.
Saba Is Giving This Relationship Her All:
Saba has made sure to do everything to make her marriage work. She has put her mind, heart & soul into this relationship & even though people around her blame her for not giving Ammar the kind of respect he deserves, Saba is putting in a lot of effort. Saba has never once thought of putting an end to this relationship because she genuinely wants things to work between her & her husband. Yes, Saba has a lot to complain about, Ammar has given her a lot of reasons to do that but she has never once thought of walking out of this marriage or escaping the tortures Ammar put her through. Saba has kind of understood that this is how her relationship is, this is what Ammar is like & she is trying her best to at times mend his ways or at times compromise. Everyone has pretty much made us their mind about Saba that she has problems with Ammar but no one has even once thought about the fact that Ammar must be giving Saba some reasons to feel that way.
Nida has decided to take a step closer to Fakhir & start a conversation with him. It was interesting how Nida decided to use Fakhir’s skill & craft to her advantage, I like how they have kept her feelings for Fakhir very decent & innocent. Even though Nida is keen to be with Fakhir because she genuinely likes him but there hasn’t ever been such a moment where the viewers were made to feel that she was being desperate. Nida is innocent, her feelings for Fakhir & the way she expresses them is all very innocent too. Nida did pick up on a fact that Fakhir was in contact with a girl named Saba but she kind of didn’t really seem satisfied with his explanation, obviously she likes him therefore she is possessive about him too.
Saba was confiding in Fakhir, she felt that there was at least one such person who was not judging her or telling her that she had hit a jackpot by getting married to a guy like Ammar. Fakhir was just there for Saba because he knew that she needed nothing but just some support & someone who’d listen to her quietly. Saba was again seen struggling, she wanted to vent out but then she felt guilty about it too. I loved this aspect of Saba’s ordeal where she wanted to let it out of her system to find her sanity back but then she also felt bad about the fact that she was talking behind Ammar’s back. This alone shows that Saba is ready to do everything to make this marriage work & even though she knows that Ammar puts her through so much, she is still not comfortable with the idea of talking ill about him. Ammar as well as everyone around Saba has made her feel that way, they all want her to always feel guilty & indebted to Ammar.
Well, another revelation was made in this episode that Salma & Ammar were not just university friends but they were in a relationship back in the day. Salma is tired of her ex-husband & that is why she now regrets breaking up with Ammar. Salma is so consumed in her own problems that she is not even thinking for a second that these meetings could give Ammar a wrong message & that Ammar is giving her way too much time, whereas he should be with his wife. Ammar got caught but he covered his lies up in front of Saba. Ammar’s friends are also tired of his attitude & behavior but they choose not to say anything to him because they have accepted him the way he is but it is good that his female friend has started being concerned about Saba’s well-being as she knows that Ammar is not only insincere to her but is also such a difficult person to be with.
Saba decided to come out of her depression & move on. Ammar’s pupho helped put things into perspective for Saba but then all of the things she said basically revolved around the notion that Saba should do everything to please Ammar, where she should not prioritize herself but put Ammar first because then only she will prove to be a good wife. Saba decided to give it a go but she has no idea that Ammar is not worth the effort. He is not worth her trust, her loyalty, her guilt, any of the emotions she feels thinking she is wronging or betraying him. After the incident, Ammar just decided to treat Saba nicely but then he continued to be involved with Salma too. Ammar is conniving, he knows what Saba wants – his appreciation & some kind words, so he gave it to her only so that she doesn’t grow suspicious or doubts his intentions ever.
Closing Thoughts – Quality Entertainment:
Overall, this episode of Khaas was again done very nicely. I like how this entire drama is all about reading between the lines, understanding the unsaid words & unstated emotions. I like how everything has shown to be coming from a good place & how one thing is leading to another. Even though this drama does show that Saba is distressed but the way she is fighting to make things work is nicely shown too. I am really glad that Khaas has turned out to be a quality drama & I can’t wait to find out what happens next. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Khaas.

Mein Na Janoo Episode 1 Story Review – Clichéd & Unappealing
Writer: Nooran Makhdoom
Director: Furqan Khan
Producers: Cereal Entertainment & MD Productions
Scehdule: Every Tuesday 8pm HUM
I must say that I did not have huge expectations from this serial especially after watching the promos but even then I felt that this first episode was too plain, stereotypical, clichéd and unappealing. After watching this first episode it isn’t very difficult to predict how the story will progress in the next few weeks. I am however hoping that it will get more interesting and hopefully will have some surprises in store in the upcoming weeks. The overall execution of this episode was not impressive either and some of the scenes were repetitive.
The Characters & The Main Theme
Since this is Sanam Jung’s comeback serial therefore her character and performance mattered more than any other. Saira’s character is as typical as it gets and her overall situation even more so. This character gave me Romaissa vibes and Sanam Jung’s performance was just as plain as the character itself. There wasn’t anything new about her styling and overall look either. The fact that Saira not in a position to take a stand for herself and her step-sister Kiran (Komal Aziz) has her family’s support makes it easier to guess where the story will go from here. The only mystery element in this first episode was the background of Farah’s (Huma Nawab) story and how Zulqarnain lost his eyesight. Farah’s majbooris, her becharapan and the fact that she was completely resigned to her fate was overemphasized in this first episode. All the primary characters were introduced without any ambiguity in this first episode but none of these characters were ‘new’. Also, the scenes too had done-to-death written all over them.
Affan Waheed’s look for this drama will probably with time grow on me but for now he looks too much like a pappu bacha but not young enough to pull it off. Zahid Ahmed’s character (Zulqarnain) was relatively more interesting and intriguing. Few of his dialogues suggested that he had a strong personality and he was very sure about what he wanted from life. His strong likes and dislikes were also highlighted through different scenes. There are many characters which will be playing the role of the zalim samaj and it already felt like Farah and Saira against the world kind of a situation. A saas who belittles her bahu every chance she gets and makes her work like a slave, a husband who couldn’t care less and is too busy with his second family and a phupi who thinks Saira is not good enough for her perfect son. We will probably be watching Saira and her mother sacrificing a great deal in the upcoming weeks because they simply don’t have a choice.
Final Remarks
This wasn’t the kind of first episode which gives you a lot to say or talk about. The characters were pretty simple and the scenarios too were nothing out of the box. My guess is that this is going to be yet another complicated yet typical love triangle with family dynamics playing a major role. This first episode revolved around marriages more than anything else in some way or the other instead of relationships in general which in my opinion gave it a very typical feel. The writer and the director played it safe, a little too safe in this first episode therefore there were no flaws or glitches in it but that is the exact reason why this episode was also not appealing.

We are getting positive vibes from Amna Illyas’ latest clicks and love how she is enjoying every little thing about her life. Amna Illyas’ performance in the film Baji has been liked by everyone. The tag lines with these pictures are just as pleasant as the pictures themselves. With one of the pictures she wrote, “Sending love and light to all of you amazing people today ❤️ It’s so important to give love whenever you can.”
In another one she said something which would make her fans easy to connect to her. “A mood when you’ve had your afternoon chai!” The looks Amna Illyas is supporting in these latest photo shoots are definitely style goals. Amna Illyas also believes that, “Your eyes show the strength of your soul.”
Surkh Chandni Episode 11 & 12 – Story Review
Opening Thoughts – Different Aspects of A Victim’s Journey:
Ohkay so, this episode of Surkh Chandni was depressing & somewhat slow but still, it is good to see that they are showing different aspects of what a victim goes through & how in some rare cases a victim tries to take the matters in her hands. Aida was pushed to the limit & her patience was being tested time & again, therefore she was left with no choice than to do what it takes to punish the one who was responsible for what she was going through. The direction & acting to be seen in Surkh Chandni is definitely amazing but it is too bad that the theme of the drama is so depressing.
Aida Took Matters In Her Hands:
Aida tried to harm Junaid but she couldn’t succeed, however Aida showed no remorse over what she did, to an extent that she was not even worried about the consequences she’d have to face if Junaid had actually died. It was basically the way to highlight what Aida was put through time & again & how it boiled down to this point that she saw this as the only option. Aida has grown cold, she has shed enough tears & after seeing the destruction her family has faced, she was numb but the only thing that riled her up was the thought of Junaid roaming around freely while still being the one who did this to her.
Aida was arrested & then once again, Amaan’s love & patience for her was tested. Amaan did everything to get her out of the prison but in the end, his helplessness took him to the path which he so did not want to walk on. Safina knew that the only person who could help them in this hour of need was Junaid & Amaan ended up doing which no one would’ve done for Aida. He surrendered but made sure that it guaranteed Aida’s freedom. Aida stayed aloof & numb but a part of her was done sulking because AIda had pretty much understood that nothing else or nothing worse could happen to her. Aida once again got to see the love Amaan had for her but she would may be never find out how he arranged for her to get out of the jail, it was by begging for her life in front of the one who destroyed it completely.
Mukhtar took the gloves off & told his mother that they had nothing to do with Aida anymore & if she wanted a roof over her head, she had to abide by the rules set by him. I know, this is yet another realistic part of the story but showing this much of helplessness is pretty depressing. Aida’s mother knew she couldn’t do much plus she was not even in the right state of mind to do anything, she was mourning the tragic loss of her husband & now her daughter too.
Junaid now has called dibs on Shumaila & I am sure this was something that no one saw coming. Junaid is after this entire family & he obviously is mentally twisted, that is why he didn’t even feel ashamed of thinking about Shumaila that way. I am sure Shumaila, despite hesitating will eventually understand what Junaid wants & she’d most probably get ready to get married to him. Shumaila only wants comfort & luxuries, that is the only reason she is drawn towards Junaid & his mother, while bearing in mind that they are responsible for all that has happened to Aida. This was definitely an unexpected twist & I am interested to see the doom of Mukhtar, when he will be ditched by the wife he trusts the most & this will eventually lead to the doom of Junaid & Shumaila too. Their lives will be full of regrets but then, before that happens, I so want to see Aida & Amaan pushing though. The ray of hope in this entire situation is the involvement of the NGO worker, where she has not only grown curious about Aida but is also following her case up because she can sense something is totally off about the way her family has been behaving. I so hope she gives Aida a hope & a new path which will shape her life like no one would’ve imagined.
Closing Thoughts – Brilliant Acting:
Overall, this drama definitely scores brownie points for the overly realistic portrayal of what happens in an acid victim’s life but still, I can not emphasize enough about the fact that it is very very very depressing & I watch the episode by forwarding quite a lot of closeup shots, tears & such scenes where the OST is echoing non-stop in the background. I must say, this drama is also quite loud, loud in a sense that it does have a lot of yelling & screaming but on top of that, the usage of OST is horrifically way too much. I so wish they had toned it down on it a bit because they are making quite a point so they don’t need to emphasize the sad state of affairs by relying so much on the depressing song. All the actors are doing a phenomenal work in this drama, be it Hassan Ahmad, Huma Nawab, Mansha Pasha, Sohai Ali Abro, Osman Khalid Butt or Asad Siddique, they all are brilliant in Surkh Chandni. I must also add that I am glad once they start off with one chapter, by the end of the double episodes, they wrap that up & give a teaser of what is going to happen in the next episode, I guess this will keep the story moving consistently & I hope that doesn’t change. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Surkh Chandni.

Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.

Dar Khuda Se Episode 5 – Story Review
Opening Thoughts – One-Sided For Now:
Ohkay so, this episode of Dar Khuda Se again focused on the aftermath of Azhar’s nikkah to Shehla. Even though this side of the story is also quite important to be told but I guess it would’ve made the drama a little more engaging if they had also kept on showing Shahwez’s life unfold on the side too. So far the story is coming across as one-sided & because there’s nothing much new in Afreen & her family’s track, it is kind of coming across a little less engaging.
Azhar’s Family Was Not Happy:
Azhar brought Shehla home & everyone had one thing or the other to say about it. Afreen knew that nothing could be undone therefore she told Tamkeen to relax & accept the fact that Azhar was now married. Azhar has pretty much made up his mind, he knew obviously that his family won’t jump with joy that is why he stood firm on his decision & kept on taking a stand for Shehla. Azhar had no shame in admitting that he got married for selfish reasons & he even let his parents know that he holds them responsible for pushing them to this limit.
Azhar’s father came to a solution where he wanted to do everything properly so that later on, no one blames him or his family, plus he was worried about the fact that this could jeopardize the chances of his daughters’ marriages. Even though Azhar’s mother was not happy but still she half-heartedly accepted Shehla but when it came to Tamkeen, she made it very obvious to both Shehla as well as Azhar that she was not going to allow them the peace of mind they were looking for. Tamkeen has her own issues & she has grudges against her father too because she thinks he has double standards but then Afreen continued to explain to Tamkeen but she obviously didn’t understand.
Junaid & his wife did feel that Afreen was a very nice girl but considering the kind of family she belonged to convinced them that they could not carry on with this proposal. This is yet another aspect that the writer has touched upon where she has shown that for some people, family background matters quite a lot & they were obviously not wrong in feeling a little hesitant about pursuing this proposal. Junaid’s wife had her own reasons but still both of the did feel for Afreen as they knew she was paying the price for something she was not responsible for.
On Shahwez’s side of the story, nothing much happened apart from his wife finding out about his fling with the house maid. Shahwez actually thinks he is a hit too smart & he underestimates his wife’s intelligence that is why he was taking such a huge risk but he obviously got caught & he doesn’t even have an idea.
Closing Thoughts – Still A Decent Watch:
Overall, this episode of Dar Khuda Se was pretty basic but I still enjoy watching it considering the fact that we have so many depressing dramas on air right now, this one feels a little less heavy & pretty much showcases the day to day struggles of a middle class family in a realistic manner. Yes we also have a contrast in the form of Shahwez’s life so it is a pretty good balance. This drama obviously is not extra special but it surely is a good watch. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Dar Khuda Se.

Inkaar Episode 19 Story Review – Powerful Dialogues
Tonight’s episode of Inkaar yet again showed in the most realistic manner possible the aftermath of the court’s judgment. Hafiz Illyas who had kept his cool till now, finally shared his true feelings with a friend. Hajra’s desperation and helplessness grew and her mother once again suggested an ‘easy way out’ which of course was unacceptable for Hajra. The highlight of this episode were all those beautifully penned down scenes and dialogues which shed light on the hypocrisy and injustice which unfortunately is a part of our social fabric. Yumna Zaidi and Rehan Sheikh’s performances in particular were outstanding tonight. Their characters and the relationship they share is the most heart-warming aspect of this drama.
Emotional Scenes
Tonight’s episode had so many emotional scenes starting from the apologies in the opening scenes to the confusion all these characters faced right till the end. The journeys of all the characters have been translated on screen in an impactful manner. It was also good to see Hajra’s mother playing the role of a mediator for a change. Although there have been many times when her decisions have anything but likable but overall Hajra’s mother’s character is multidimensional. She is not as strong as her husband or daughter and is usually looking for easier ways to please others. Yumna Zaidi’s expressions in the opening scene and in this episode overall were extremely powerful. A father’s apology and later on his confessions made Rehan Sheikh’s scenes some of the most intense scenes tonight. I absolutely loved what Hajra had to say about girls who are victimized in some way or the other. These dialogues were written so well and summed up how difficult it was for a woman to get justice.
Rehan Chaudhry’s track was really interesting tonight. While his mother tried to ‘rescue’ him, his stepmother kept on giving him drugs and ultimately even went to Hajra’s house to ask for her proposal. Rehan’s mother’s dialogues basically showed how simple his life was before he came to live with his stepmother. The writer has throughout laid stress on the importance of upbringing. Rehan would have been a different person if he was brought up by his own mother. Rehan was confused for a little while tonight but when he heard that staying with his stepmother would mean getting married to Hajra, making a decision was not difficult. Imran Ashraf nailed every single expression tonight especially while showing his character’s vulnerabilities and confusion. The way his stepmother tried to justify his behavior pretty much summed up why Rehan is such a twisted character.
I felt for Shayan tonight just as much as I did for Hajra and her father. He loves Hajra dearly and wants to do whatever he can to make things right yet Hajra cannot even stand to be around him because he reminds her of Rehan. Sami Khan’s expressions when Hajra tells Shayan to kill Rehan were priceless. In my opinion no other actor portrays the helplessness of a person who knows he is about to lose the love of his life better than him.
Final Remarks
Tonight’s episode of Inkaar highlighted the helplessness of all the characters in the most apt manner possible. This was an extremely upsetting episode but the preview of the next episode promised hope. Showing the vulnerabilities of these characters was crucial to the plot and these aspects make the story more realistic. This drama continues to be extremely powerful and I must say that the dialogues tonight were beyond impressive. Every actor performed extremely well and Kashif Nisar has once again shown his brilliance as a director.

Mahira Khan’s New Movie Superstar Trailer Is Out
Superstar is the most awaited film of this year. Starring Mahira Khan and Bilal Ashraf in the main lead, the film has been written by Ali and Mustafa Afridi and directed by Ehteshammudin, this film has everyone waiting in anticipation. Another main attraction of this film is that Azaan Sami Khan is incharge of the music, he has also written the screenplay of the film.
The trailer of Superstar has been liked by everyone because it offers everything a film should offer. Looks like Superstar will be a story somewhat similar to that of the Bollywood film Taal. It will be the story of a young lady who goes out to make it big in the industry. (citygoldmedia)
Many stars are making guest appearances in this star-studded film. The big names include Kubra Khan, Syra Shehroze, Hania Aamir, Osman Khalid Butt and Fahim Burney. The trailer of the film has been put together will great caution, without giving the main story away, the team has manage to grab the attention of the viewers. The music of the film seems to be one of the best things about it. Bilal Ashraf also makes his presence felt in this trailer and Mahira Khan yet again looks charming.
Apart from Superstar, Parey Hut Love is going to be another big film which will be releasing soon. There is tough competition between the films but this trailer has given Superstar a definite edge. The trailer launch of the film was a star-studded affair. The celebrities poured out their positive feedback at the trailer launch and urged the cinema goers to watch the film.

Anaa Episode 22 Story Review – The Reactions
Tonight’s episode was relatively slow paced considering this was the 22nd episode and something major happened last week. This episode covered almost all the tracks and some of the tracks are going around in circles. This drama continues to be not-so-desi and at the same time there are some characters which play the zalim samaj with great dedication.
The Love Triangles
Anya’s role tonight was surprising as well as really difficult to connect to since her actual feelings were not shown. The fact that she was willing to do anything at all to please Areesh wasn’t surprising or unbelievable but surely this was not easy for her. There wasn’t a single scene in this episode which covered her true emotions at this moment. It was however good to see her being relieved when she left her in law’s house. Daneen and Areesh are planning to run away but no one talked about how Daneen was going to get a divorce from Saif. Daneen feels for Anya and she is ‘thankful’ but she does not want to let go of Areesh. Daneen is back to being her careless self mainly because of the fact that no one really looked out for her when she needed support. Daneen however is making yet another mistake and Saif even after all this is not willing to give her a divorce.
After giving up on Ezza, Altamash decided to call his ex and ended up meeting Ezza unexpectedly yet again. Kabir bhai’s outburst was completely unexpected and I don’t understand why the men in this drama manhandle the women whenever they are upset. One thing is for sure that Ezza’s ‘no’ always means a yes since after refusing to go out for coffee with Kabir, she was at the coffee shop with him in the next scene. The scene at the coffee shop was really cute until Kabir lost it! Naimal Khawar is especially cute in scenes covering her discomfort while she is around Altamash. Altamash once again mistook Kabir as Ezza’s ‘love interest’ which was slightly disappointing considering he is a smart guy who really should know better. Hopefully after finding out what Nazia has done, he will figure out why Ezza was too embarrassed to talk to him even. Altamash’s reaction after he found out everything that had happened was quite ‘thanda’ considering he is so over protective about Anya. Also, Ghazanfar didn’t try hard enough to find Areesh since he had an inkling that Anya was in touch with him.
Final Remarks
Tonight’s episode covered some of the reactions, the viewers have yet to see how Daneen’s father will react to the latest developments. The preview of the next episode suggested that something tragic is about to happen. It would have been nice if we got to see more of Daneen’s father since he was not shown thinking about Daneen even once after that visit. Waiting to find out how these complicated situations are eventually resolved. Anaa has definitely been an interesting watch but some of the situations are getting highly repetitive. It is certainly time to wrap things up since the drama so far has been well paced. Daneen, even with all her flaws, continues to be the most appealing aspect of this drama. I am still hoping that she will eventually be the one who will convince Areesh to go back to Anya.

Hina Altaf Took Revenge from Aiman Khan – Old Video is a proof
Hina Altaf has been in the news lately for criticizing co-star Muneeb Butt because according to her he cannot act. Aiman Butt and Minal Butt were quick to react when they watched Hina Altaf passing comments about Muneeb Butt which were degrading. Most of the people found it difficult to understand why Hina Altaf would do something like that.
Well, looks like the mystery has been solved since an old video from Yasir Hussain’s talk show in which Aiman Khan and Minal Khan were invited as guests has gone viral on the internet. In this video clip, Aiman Khan is seen criticizing Hina Altaf’s acting skills. When Yasir Hussain asked Aiman Khan to choose one actress who wasn’t good at what she did, Aiman Khan chose Hina Altaf saying that the other two choices i.e. Saboor Aly and Iqra Aziz were really good actors.
Is it possible that there was a cold war going on between these actresses even before which is why Hina Altaf made fun of Aiman Khan and Muneeb Butt of the show To Be Honest? Some of the celebrities are not happy with this situation, they are questioning whether it really is neccessary to give actors such choices and they are also asking why some actors make fun of others like this.
Aiman Khan Got Angry With Hina Altaf’s Remarks About Her Husband
Aiman Khan termed the host and the guest ‘uneducated’ for criticizing them like this. Now it seems like Aiman Khan too has done the same thing in the past. Now that this video has gone viral, people are putting two and two together. Some people are saying that it looks like Hina Altaf was simply getting back at Aiman Khan.

Cheekh Episode 25 & 26 – Story Review
Opening Thoughts – Drag:
Oh yawn, I mean Ohkay so, these two episodes of Cheekh were full of cheekhs & this drama has become such a drag that I couldn’t bring myself to review it last week, that is why I thought it would be a good idea to do a combined review of two episodes. The story has moved forward & this episode was quite happening but I could sense that they are now wrapping the drama up which actually makes me so happy that I am doing an imaginary bhangra in my head. Imagine, how desensitized this drama has made us by showing so many tragedies that even though in this episode one of the nicest characters have died but I am not feeling a thing rather I’m looking forward to the end!
Hospital Is The New Home:
In the previous episode, the only important scene was of Shariq’s meeting with Wajih, where he deliberately made him confess everything so that Haya could believe & find out the truth. Even though they have not revealed it yet & they might be saving it as a final nail in the coffin but I do hope Shariq was wise & sharp enough to record Wajih’s confession on his phone. I hope he has done that because in that entire scene his hands were in his pocket, so let’s hope that has happened. Also, if Shariq has not done that then I’m not sure why making Wajih confess only for Haya to hear was so important? But I hope some recording was done. In this episode, Shariq recorded Wajih partying only to send it to Haya so it does show that Shariq does know how recording works, so here’s to hoping!!!
Mannat was being treated so that her mental health deteriorates & she can be declared a cynic but one of the doctors saved the day & then Shayan’s dramatic move also made Yawar stop Aqil from doing whatever he was doing.
To be honest, in the quest of showing how to stand for the right & all that jazz, I feel the writer & team Cheekh has taken it toooooooooo far. This far that now anyone would think a million times before standing up for the right or challenging the powerful. I know they have shown a reality, I know this is the ghissa pitta excuse they give for churning out so much of negativity but still, I think in stead of putting the right message across, they have done enough to scare people to the core. It all started from Mannat losing her friend but then later Mannat went on a losing spree – she lost her baby, she lost her mother, she was at the brink of losing her sanity & eventually she has lost her husband!?! So not needed & so unnecessary. Also, it is funny that half of this drama was shot in a hospital! I wonder why couldn’t they show that after Shayan met some injuries, Mannat took it on her to teach Wajih a lesson because she has had enough? Why couldn’t they show that a supportive husband like Shayan was by Mannat’s side & saw her win the case. Nahi jee, killing & deaths of characters mean more ratings to chalo, aisay hi sahi. This drama might be showing how difficult the fight for justice is, but that thing is long forgotten & now it has just turned into something super depressive!!!
Finally, it has taken a loss of his brother Shayan for Yawar to now finally realize that he has been wrong all along by supporting Wajih. Unfortunately, he had to go through such a big shock to come to his senses & now when the maid testified against Wajih, Yawar knew he could not do anything because Wajih dug his own grave. I so hope that the writer doesn’t show Wajih losing his senses, rather he should totally stay mentally conscious to feel the guilt & regret all that he has done!
Closing Thoughts – I Have A Headache:
These two episodes of Cheekh were alright. This drama is popular but then, apart from negativity, there’s nothing that I see in it. It is a typical Zanjabeel Asim Shah script & next time if I see her name, I will switch the TV off because my mental sanity & health comes first. It is beyond shocking how this much of negativity can come from someone’s mind. Also, in the last couple of weeks I have had reruns of beautiful dramas like Malal & Doraha & while watching them, I really enjoyed how quiet those dramas were, even if there was a background music, it was instrumental & lasted for a few seconds & when there were conversations, there was no music. This is something that our drama makers especially those associated with ARY Digital should consider because there is so much noise & so much usage of music/OST in every single episode that it literally gives you a headache. No joke, I have been watching Cheekh on volume as low as 5 because the loud background music just gets to me & tonight was no different, I have a headache because I just watched this episode. Anyways, acting of all the actors has been good no doubts about it but this drama on the whole is meh. Zanjabeel Asim Shah needs to go on a long break & probably never return as a writer. The fact that after Balaa, she became the content head of ARY Digital is alarming. Please share your thoughts about this episode of Cheekh!
Keep Supporting,
Cheers,
Zahra Mirza.
Deewar-e-Shab Episode 6 Story Review – Fast Paced
This was another fast paced episode of Deewar-e-Shab and the most significant development in it was Nagina’s growing resentment and changed personality. Apart from that, few of the characters from the new generation were introduced in this episode. Some of the scenarios were rushed, which is okay, as long as the writer has enough to keep the viewers entertained right till the end or at least for more than 10 weeks. Most of the characters in this play so far are black and white, Nagina is the only dynamic character which is why her track is that part of the story which makes you feel connected. Sitara Jahan and Dildar begum’s personalities and their relationship did not change in all these years. I am not surprised that Sarah Khan is playing Geeti Ara’s role because she has continuously been seen taking up such roles in dramas. Nausheen Shah’s performance continues to be the best part of this play since some of the other performances have been over-dramatic. The young actress playing Geeti Ara’s role was also quite impressive.
Khayyam’s Welcome
The first half of this episode covered in detail how different family members reacted to Khayyam’s arrival and the news of Feroza’s death. Islam’s character was further revealed and his dialogues were beautifully written. He is definitely the most positive character in this play and Kamran Jillani is well-suited for playing this role. Sitara Jahan’s reaction was shown in an overdramatic manner and just like always Dildar begum was there to remind her how Feroza had betrayed her. Nagina’s reaction could have been covered in a better way since she was more excited to meet Khayyam instead of showing the shock she felt knowing that her sister was dead. I am glad the viewers got to hear how Feroza suffered and they were not shown this scenario as a backstory since the way the backstory was covered in the most rushed and unconvincing manner in the previous episode. Gaiti Ara immediately welcomed Khayyam, noticed that he was a sad little boy and decided she was going to do whatever it took to make him happy. Although I absolutely loved the performance of the child star playing Gaiti Ara’s role but I must say that the character so far has too good to be true written all over it. Hopefully, Gaiti Ara will have more to offer in the future.
Sandal on the other hand wanted Khayyam out of the house right away and the fact that her nanni hit her because of him probably made her hate him even more. Sandal therefore is a complete opposite in every single way. There hasn’t been a single scene in which she was shown in a good light. All of this also seems like a repeat of Feroza and Nagina. Khayyam’s confusion and his discomfort was also translated well on screen. He had no idea who these people were and was obviously distant even though he was getting all this love. Another thing which stood out more than any other was his hatred for everything which was musical or which in any way was related to the actual profession of the family he now belonged to. These scenes were meaningful as well as alarming since his mother also left this life because she did not like it, was Khayyam going to cause more problems for Sitara Jahan?
Present Day Story
The second half of this episode covered the present day story and some of the characters from present day were introduced. Sarah Khan is playing the role of Gaiti Ara, who is about to complete her studies. Gaiti Ara is a studious young girl who is still close to her cousin Khayyam (Shehroze Sabzwari). Khayyam seemed like an angry young man who hated the family profession more than ever. Nagina changed the most in all these years. After working hard and compromising on roles, she had still achieved nothing. She blamed Feroza more than ever and her dialogues about Khayyam also suggested that she didn’t think highly of him. While Dildar begum’s granddaughter took the family business forward and earned well for them, things in Sitara Mahal were quite different. Sitara Jahan was still finding it hard to make ends meet but was unwilling to compromise on her rules and integrity.
Kinza Hasmi, Osama Tahir and Anmol Baloch were among some of the actors from the new generation which were introduced in this episode. Quite surprisingly Islam and Izhaar’s children are engaged. Islam mentioned that there was a huge class difference between them but his wife was more than eager to get the children married.
These characters and their stories were covered for a short duration therefore right now it is too early to say anything about them. I am waiting to find out more about them but definitely not looking forward to Khayyam’s father making an appearance since Raja Haider’s performance last week was extremely disappointing.
Final Remarks
Overall, this was an entertaining episode with the story moving forward considerably. Although Deewar-e-Shab is a decent play but the over-dramatic performances sometimes undermine the impact of certain important developments. I am however looking forward to the next episode and waiting to see what the Deewar-e-Shab team has in store for us next.
Do share your thoughts about tonight’s episode.
