When the writers conceptualize a story that they want to write about and when the directors visualize how they are going to dramatize a script they have to work on, the first and the foremost aspect that needs utmost attention and consideration is related to the characters which will be used to elaborate the story on-screen. This is what actually brings in the job of the actors for that matter, where they are required to carry forward the idea of the writer and the instructions of the director to portray the story which the drama is based upon with their impressive performances because the characters and the actors portraying those characters make or break the drama and make those characters unforgettable for the viewers.

Even though the writers and the directors work behind the camera and their work is of equal importance, by the end of the day, a little more responsibility relies on the actors as to how they approach a character that has been assigned to them and translate it on screen. As much as it is the writer’s duty to pen down an impressive character, it is also a duty of an actor to breathe life into that character and then the director acts as a mediator between both of them to make sure the actors are doing everything to impress the viewers with their portrayal and their performances are in accordance with the writer’s perspective and idea with which they penned down those characters.

Here is a list that has been dedicated to those impressive performances that we saw in 2016. In this list, both; impressive characters and impressive performances will be covered because impressive performances may not necessarily mean the characters were impressive too, because we saw a handful of dark and disturbing characters and they do not qualify as impressive by any means, but the actors need recognition for their realistic performances, which made their characters impactful and convincing. We hope that while going through the list, the readers will be able to distinguish between the impressive performances and impressive characters because these are two different categories that have been rolled into 1 article.

The list is in alphabetical order in terms of drama titles:

Arij Fatima (App Ke Liye)

Washma’s character was the only good thing about the drama App Ke Liye and what made it even better was an impressive performance of Arij Fatima. It was quite interesting to see a character who was so care-free and relaxed about everything in life, yet she wasn’t immature and most certainly understood her responsibilities and all those roles that were expected from her to be played. Arij Fatima’s flawless and effortless performance made Washma’s journey a very interesting ride.

Saba Qamar (Besharam)

Mishi was an example of one impressive character backed by one impressive performance. Saba Qamar is a fine actor and she proved it once again with her perfect portrayal of Mishi, a super model who happily puts everything aside because after meeting a stranger, she realizes that this is what she wanted in her life, a security and a comfort that she experienced for the first time. The writer surely wrote Mishi’s character with a lot of love and positivity because that positivity was evident throughout Mishi’s journey, which broke the stereotypes and showed a completely different perspective to the viewers.

Haider (Besharam)

A tough cookie, who was soft-hearted and very much in touch with his emotional side, who also knew how to maintain a balance between his mother and his wife, and also knew how to rationalize every single situation. Zahid Ahmed elevated the level of this beautiful character with his impressive performance, because he understood the perspective of the writer and portrayed what she wanted to show that a head-strong and iron-willed man can also mend ways for his wife and can be very accommodating to make her feel a part of his life. It was a beautiful transition that Haider goes through from being someone who imposes his thought process on his wife to someone who later does everything that she says because he learns to trust and understand her. Haider surely was a very unique and impressive character and that can be surely said about Zahid Ahmed’s performance.

Malik Raza (Besharam)

Malik Raza surely made a caricatural character like Wahab Sunyara a treat to watch, so much so that the episode of Besharam seemed incomplete without his scene or two. Even though Wahab’s character was added by the writer to add some comic relief in a drama, but as there is always a thin line in keeping things lighthearted or turning something into a joke with an intention of making a mockery out of it, fortunately that thin line was never crossed, neither by the writer nor by Malik Raza because he played his character with so much of conviction that he ended up looking like any real businessman who is unlettered but does extremely well for himself and his family because of amazing business management & money making skills. Wahab Sunyara was surely one amazing character backed up by an equally amazing and impressive performance.

Shahista Jabeen (Besharam)

Shahista got to play the beautiful character of Khadija who was a very understanding and supportive mother in law, which is a rare sight in our dramas these days. This was one such character that touched the viewer’s hearts because it showed the bigger picture that the writer had in her mind where she wanted to change a perspective that mothers in laws can be like Khadija too, who fight with their own sons for the rights of their daughters in law. It was actually a treat to watch such an amazing character on our screen and Shahista Jabeen’s portrayal was perfect too.

Saba Hameed (Dillagi)

Saba Hameed is a versatile actress who always manages to give her best performance in every drama. She also has her own style in every drama which somehow shows her ‘interpretation’ of the character she is performing. Zubeida had her very own set of principles which she was not willing to change until she had no choice. Saba Hameed’s award-winning performance won her accolades from the viewers. Her get-up in the drama was just as unique and interesting as her character.

Imran Ashraf (Dillagi)

The bromance between Mohid and Dastagir wouldn’t have been one of the best and the most emotional part of Dillagi if it weren’t for Imran Ashraf’s brilliant portrayal of Dastagir. Imran Ashraf made Dastagir look smart, innocent, likeable and comic just the way the writer had perceived him to be. This was the best role played by Imran Ashraf this entire year. Imran Ashraf made Dastagir’s character so enjoyable that he was sorely missed by viewers when he did not get enough screen time in a certain episode.

Hamayun Saeed (Dillagi)

Mohid wasn’t just another hero, he was an ideal hero who was intelligent and sensitive – a rare combination! Hamayun Saeed’s manly demeanor and his natural acting won him many more fans and made this the perfect comeback for him in dramas. Many women watched Dillagi only for Mohid not only because of how the character was etched-out but also because of the way Hamayun Saeed brought this character to life on screen.

Mehwish Hayat (Dillagi)

Mehwish Hayat’s gripping acting style made Anmol’s character one such character which will be remembered for a long time. She owned the role assigned to her completely and gave people reason to side with Mohid instead of her. Anmol’s character was a complicated one, it required a lot of energy and emotions. Mehwish Hayat was at her very best in the last few episodes in which Anmol realized that she too was in love with Mohid.

Saba Qamar (Mein Sitara)

Sitara’s character put Saba Qamar’s acting abilities to good use and she proved that she was capable of performing any role given to her faultlessly. Sitara’s character went through many phases all through the duration of the drama, from a simple girl to a woman who no longer cared about right or wrong, Sitara’s journey was full of emotions and Saba Qamar managed to nail each one of those scenarios and emotions. One of the main reasons why the viewers were able to relate to Sitara’s character was the brilliant performance by Saba Qamar.

Aisha Gul (Mein Sitara)

Jharna’s character was also one of those characters which had a lot of room for performance but it wasn’t necessarily one of those characters which would have grabbed the attention of viewers if it wasn’t translated on screen properly. Aisha Gul’s solid performance right from the get-go gave her character the edge it needed to win the hearts of the viewers. She owned her character completely and reflected the confidence in Jharna’s character just as faultlessly as she portrayed her insecurities later on. This was the first time Aisha Gul outshone in a role because of the character she played but even more so because of her performance.

Hassan Noman (Preet Na Kariyo Koi)

This was one such character that had all the shades in it and was written beautifully by the writer. Ilyas was humorous, he was caring, he was childlike and clean-hearted, but most importantly, he knew how to maintain his relationships, he knew the value of family members. Ilyas knew how to take a brunt for someone else’s mistakes and he also knew how to keep the secrets buried in his heart. Ilyas was the one who played the role of a son, a brother and a husband to perfection. Despite being used and thrown by his cousin, Ilyas chose to be a bigger person by forgiving her for how unfairly she treated him and how she turned him into a culprit. Hassan Noman played the role of Kashmiri boy belonging to the interiors of Lahore to perfection, it was so evident that he had a complete command over Ilyas and without overdoing anything, he put Ilyas’s character out there effortlessly, for the viewers to enjoy his journey and his brilliant performance.

Hira Mani (Preet Na Kariyo Koi)

Goshi’s character was of a girl who was unconventional, selfish & manipulative with a slight streak of negativity, which was portrayed brilliantly by Hira Mani. This was the first time viewers got to see Hira in a leading role and she carried the entire drama on her shoulders as Shagufta. Even though the viewers disliked her for how she treated her family members but the way her character was written also allowed the viewers to have an insight into her thought process. Goshi was selfish but she wasn’t a completely black and white character, which made her very relatable, realistic and enjoyable to watch because she was a strong woman in a very unique way. Hira Mani definitely stole the show with her impressive performance as Goshi because she allowed the viewers to feel her pain despite detesting her for her manipulative ways.

Bushra Ansari (Udaari)

Bushra Ansari does not need anyone’s validation for her acting but she keeps on giving her viewers reason to appreciate and acknowledge her talent. Bushra Ansari’s flawless and unique performance in Udaari went to show that she was a jack of all. Viewers enjoyed Sheedan’s funny and loud character and were impressed by her open-mindedness and intelligence at the same time. Bushra Ansari was also shooting for drama serial Jhoot while she was shooting for Udaari but it is impossible to tell that she was doing both these projects at the same time when you look at the final product!

Ahsan Khan (Udaari)

Imtiaz’s character in Udaari was one of those very few negative characters of this year which not only had an impact but gave a whole new identity to Ahsan Khan. The realistic manner in which Ahsan Khan translated Imtiaz’s character on screen made the viewers fall in love with his acting and hate Imtiaz. Ahsan Khan made the viewers forget every other character he had played till date by breathing life into a character which wasn’t easy to translate on screen. This character also diversified Ahsan Khan’s career and gave him a chance to prove his versatility.

So, with this, we conclude the list of most impressive performances of 2016. Please feel free to add more names to the list and don’t forget to share your thoughts too.

Zahra Mirza & Fatima Awan.

Pakistani drama industry seems to be upping their game in terms of quality and the approach with which the stories are being shown, that is why this season, the drama buffs are being spoilt by getting some really good dramas on TV screens. As these dramas are currently being aired and will end next year, they couldn’t be included in any of the annual lists of 2016. However, we wanted to dedicate a list to a few of the TOP dramas of this season, which the viewers were contemplating about whether to watch them or not because we feel, these dramas should definitely not be missed and are worth our recommendation.

So, without further ado, here is the alphabetically ordered list of the Top 5 dramas of this season:

Dil Banjara

Written by: Faiza Iftikhar
Directed by: Siraj ul Haque
Produced by: MD Productions
Channel: HUM TV
Cast: Sanam Saeed, Adnan Malik, Meera Sethi, Hina Bayat, Samina Ahmed, Munawwar Raza, Mohsin Raza Gillani, Madiha Rizvi and others.

Dil Banjara has more than its fair share of weaknesses but there are also some aspects of this drama which make it a must-watch. The stunning locations, unconventional characters and an unpredictable storyline makes this drama one which should not be missed. Even though Sanam Saeed and Adnan Malik’s performances can be a little shaky at times but their on-screen chemistry makes their couple a complete success. Hina Bayat and Mohsin Gillani’s brilliant portrayals and their one-of-a-kind relationship is another interesting and unusual yet appealing aspect of this drama. Mohsin Gillani plays the role of a father who stands up against all odds to ensure that his daughter gets all those opportunities which other girls in the family never got with brilliance. Sanam Saeed plays the character of a girl who never wanted to let her father down but ended up falling for a man even though she is engaged to someone else with precision despite of some flaws in direction because of which her character seems confusing at time.

Sikandar is also an unusual leading man who keeps you wondering about his next move. Dil Banjara is the story of three people who are hopelessly in love even though they are not meant to be together.

Khuda Aur Mohabbat:

Written by: Hashim Nadeem
Directed by: Syed Ali Raza Usama
Produced by: Baber Javed
Channel: GEO TV
Cast: Imran Abbas, Saadia Khan, Firdous Jamal, Usman Peerzada, Saba Faisal, Humayun Ashraf and others.

This drama made a lot of buzz because as it was promised to be the second season of Khuda Aur Mohabbat, however, this factor was kept hidden from the viewers that the team of this drama was planning to cover the entire novel from beginning to end in this season, that is why they included that section of the story which was already covered in the first season too. However, it is a bonus for those viewers who haven’t seen the first season because the team of Khuda Aur Mohabbat has made a bigger and better come back.

The story is about two different people who belong to two different worlds but it is the feeling and emotion of love that binds them together. Even though the story revolves around Hammad and his love for Imaan a little more but it is one such journey that shouldn’t be missed. Imran Abbas is one such actor who knows how to portray the emotion of love flawlessly and phenomenally on screen, so it sure is a treat for all the drama buffs out there. Khuda Aur Mohabbat is filled with such beautiful characters that you will have a great time relating to them and then Hammad’s character and journey will keep you hooked to this drama as well.

Khuda Mera Bhi Hai

Written by: Asma Nabeel
Directed by: Shahid Shafaat
Produced by: Sana Shahnawaz
Channel: ARY Digital
Cast: Ayesha Khan, Syed Jibran, Aly Khan, Hira Tareen, Irsa Ghazal, Imran Ashraf, Mehmood Aslam, Furqan Qureshi, Saba Hameed, Marium Saleem and others.

Khuda Mera Bhi Hai isn’t the story of one person alone but it is the story of many people whose lives change drastically after the birth of an intersex child and obviously this will be the story of that child too once the story moves forward. The drama has some credible and compelling performances to its credit, the script so far has been logical and the director has managed to do complete justice to the emotional upheavals which were a very important part of few of the episodes that have gone on air and will play a vital role in helping the viewers relate to the characters in the upcoming episodes as well. Through the character of Bubbly the writer also tells the story of intersex individuals who are not accepted by the society.

Aisha Khan, Adnan Shah Tipu and Saba Hameed’s outstanding performances and the way this story has been executed make this drama a clear winner. This drama also has some brand new situations and scenarios to its credit which give it a very refreshing feel. Khuda Mera Bhi Hai will keep you entertained and engaged throughout, do watch it.

Khoobsurat

Written by: Seema Ghazal and Dilshaad Naseem
Directed by: Faheem Burney
Produced by: A&F Productions
Channel: Urdu1
Cast: Mahnoor Baloch, Azfar Rehman, Zarnish Khan, Asma Abbas, Faisal Rehman and others.

Khoobsurat isn’t grand but it is definitely entertaining. Zarnish Khan and Azfar Rehman’s sizzling on screen chemistry and their natural and spontaneous performances make this drama a must-watch. The story is rather simple but it is appealing nevertheless. The director and the writer seem to be taking the time necessary to take the story forward but they have done so without slowing down the pace of the drama. Khoobsurat is also visually pleasing not only because of the beautiful people who are part of the drama but also because of the picture quality and overall outlook of these actors which isn’t Over The Top but pleasing to see on screen.

So far Khoobsurat is a decent watch which falls in the category of light entertainment. The drama is likely to get serious in the future but so far the writer has managed to cover all the aspects of the story without making it too somber at any point. Zarnish Khan and Asma Abbas’ exceptional performances and their relationship with each other is the highlight of the drama as well.

Moray Saiyaan:

Written by: Rabia Razzaque
Directed by: Nadeem Siddique
Produced by: Abdullah Seja
Channel: ARY Digital
Cast: Firdous Jamal, Irsa Ghazal, Uzair Jaswal, Neha Rajpoot, Kinza Hashmi, Ayesha Toor, Ali Kazmi and others.

If you are in a mood to watch a light hearted drama with a cute love story unfolding on your TV screens, Moray Saiyaan is the drama for you. The scenic locations of Islamabad and aesthetically appeasing backdrops make this drama worth a watch. This drama consists of new faces who definitely will capture your interest because who doesn’t like seeing completely fresh faces every now and then?

Even though Moray Saiyaan has a very simple and one-dimensional story, it also has a mysterious family background which convinces you to put your mind to it in order to solve the riddle about what might’ve happened in the past. Uzair Jaswal and Neha Rajpoot’s chemistry is another added bonus in this drama and the characters of Ghaziyan and Zubaria will definitely grab your attention.

Sang e Marmar:

Written by: Mustafa Afridi
Directed by: Safie Hassan
Produced by: Momina Duraid
Channel: HUM TV
Cast: Noman Ejaz, Sania Saeed, Hassan Noman, Kubra Khan, Mikaal Zulfikar, Masoor Paras, Najiba Faiz, Uzma Hassan, Kaif Ghaznavi, Tipu Sharif, Beenish Raja, Omair Rana and others.

This is probably one such drama of the season that has everyone hooked to it completely. Even though in the initial episodes, it did look it was going to be an issue based drama with a very serious undertone but the writer and the director with their amazing talent turned it into a complete package. Iron willed characters, strong women, humour, sarcasm, family politics, plotting, planning, unpredictability, you name it, you’ve got it. Sang e Marmar definitely gained popularity because it got better and better with each passing episode and surpassed viewer’s expectations because at this stage of the drama industry where there was an influx of star studded disasters, no one expected Sang e Marmar to be this good.

Sang e Marmar is a perfect example of how a drama should be, where it should take the viewers to the world of its own and when the episode ends, it makes them feel they didn’t get enough of it. Sang e Marmar is a result of intelligent writing, intelligent direction and brilliant acting. The writer chose such a grave subject where he chose to highlight the issues that prevail in a certain culture without making it seem to grim and then the director elaborated it with finesse, where he never once made the viewers feel detatched to the reality that was being shown. Then last but not the least, the actors gave such captivating performances that the viewers formed a connection with them to such an extent that it ended up looking like the viewers were watching real lives of real people unfold on their screens. If you haven’t hopped on the band wagon of Sang e Marmar, it’s a high time you should because if there is one drama that you should definitely not miss, it is Sang e Marmar.

Shehrnaz

Writer: Hoor Shamaeel
Director: Syed Ahmed Kamran
Producers: Hassan Zia and Danish Taimoor
Channel: Urdu1
Cast: Sajid Hassan, Ayeza Khan, Farhan Ahmed Malhi, Aly Khan, Mehmood Akhter, Imran Ashraf, Komal Iqbal and others.

Shehrnaz is the story of a girl who dreams to be a “heroine” in a film some day. Shehrnaz’s story is endearing and is free of clichés which is why it is a must-watch! This show belongs to Ayeza Khan completely, those of you who would like to watch Ayeza Khan excel in a role very different from the kind of roles she has been seen playing lately should definitely tune into this drama. Just like all the other plays in this list Shehrnaz too has a different feel to it; the heroine, her story and even the locations have been chosen well. Apart from Ayeza Khan Sajid Hassan’s acting is another reason why you will have a reason to tune into this drama every week. The production values of the drama are not as remarkable as some of the other dramas in this list and some of the supporting actors are misfits too but Shehrnaz’s story and her track is interesting enough to keep the viewers glued to their television screens.

The story so far is unpredictable which is another reason why this drama keeps on giving its viewers twists and turns which keep their interest alive.

So, with this, we conclude the list of Must-Watch Dramas of The Season. Please feel free to add more names to the list and don’t forget to share your thoughts.

Fatima Awan & Zahra Mirza

With the craze of Pakistani Dramas that has grown over the years, the viewers have made a lot of actors a household name. When the viewers put so much of effort in following the actors and their work, they expect those actors to respond back in the same manner by fulfilling the expectations that their fans and followers have with them. Most of the times, it is the actors’ name that attracts the viewership because the fans who are on a look out for their favorite actors’ work deem it as an opportunity to see them on screen.

With the influx of so many dramas, the quality has been compromised upon a lot and that is why, we see our favorite actors working in substandard dramas, which results in a huge disappointment. This is related to those actors who have a huge fan following and are expected to outshine every single time they grace the screen with their presence.

Then comes the category of those actors who have been a part of the industry for a very long time but haven’t been able to leave a mark because of their substandard acting and with them being a part of the drama makes the viewers hard to connect to the characters and their stories.

So, here’s an alphabetically ordered list dedicated to those actors who need to up their game. Some of the actors need to up their game in terms of drama choices that they make and some need to do that in the overall acting and performance that they do because they have been a part of the industry for a considerable amount of time now and its a high time that they improve.

Aisha Khan

Mann Mayal was the worst choice made by Aisha Khan this year. Apart from that she was part of some of the most disastrous dramas like Shert and Tumhare Siwa last year as well. She has upped her game by choosing scripts this year which have more to offer but unfortunately Aisha Khan’s heavy reliance on make-up kills the impact which her brilliant performances can have on the viewers. In the drama Khuda Mera Bhi Hai she plays a different role but her heavy make-up stands out like a sore thumb every time. Aisha Khan can easily up her game right now by letting go of the dependency on make-up and styling especially because now she is part of dramas which have more room for performance. A character actor can never be successful if he or she is not comfortable in their own skin. We hope to see Aisha Khan looking more “real” in her dramas in the future.

Armeena Rana Khan

Armeena Rana Khan is not seen on the small screen very often but she has some very notable projects to her credit; lately she played leading roles in Bin Roye, the film and the drama and also played the lead in the film Janaan. When an actress is part of such big projects the viewers expect the best from her. Armeena Rana Khan’s dialogue delivery and expressions both are misleading to say the least, she needs to work extra hard on her acting as a whole. Also, most of the times Armeena Rana’s over glamorous and cakey make-up is more distracting than appealing. Armeena Rana Khan needs to up her game both in the acting and the looks department. She is already a part of some big projects therefore she is making the right choices but viewers will stop tuning into her dramas if she does not put in the effort needed to make some serious changes in her acting style and decides to let go of glamour.

Hamza Ali Abbasi

Hamza Ali Abbasi’s comeback after Pyare Afzal is the reason why he is in this list. An actor who chooses to do only one drama a year and one who has a huge fan following should be a little more responsible while choosing the projects he works in. Also, Hamza Ali Abbasi’s statement about his film “Jawani Phir Nahi Aani” went to show that he isn’t sure what he wants to do. He needs to think about pros and cons before choosing a certain project so that his heart is in that project. Even in Mann Mayal Hamza Ali Abbasi with his ever-present frown lines looked confused most of the times which suggested that he wasn’t enjoying playing this role.

Hareem Farooq

Hareem Farooq has earned herself a lot of fame in such a short span of time but looks like she struggles a lot when it comes to drama choices. The only good choice that Hareem made was by playing the role of Arjumand in Diyar-e-Dil but apart from that, Hareem chose to be a part of the dramas with the multiple wife themes like Dil-e-Beqarar and Dusri Biwi. In drama serial Sanam, Hareem did try to experiment but unfortunately, her character couldn’t make an impact as much as it should have due to poor writing and direction. Hareem Farooq definitely needs to up her game in terms of drama choices because at this stage, she has a lot of fans who look forward to her work.

Maya Ali

Maya Ali started her career as a supporting actress but in a very short span of time, because of her acting and confidence, she came into the forefront and started playing the main leads in almost every other drama. Maya has quite a few amazing dramas to her credit which made her a household name and she became someone who could sell a drama only with the attachment of her name to it, but due to her recent disastrous choices, she looked eligible to be made a part of this list as well. After a blockbuster drama like Diyar-e-Dil last year, Maya’s fans were eagerly looking forward to Mann Mayal because they thought Maya will blow them away once again with her phenomenal performance, but to add to their woes, it wasn’t the case. Maya is also seen in Sanam these days and it also happens to be a disaster. Even though Maya is a very fine actor, she needs to up her game by being more careful in choosing her projects because right now she has given two flops back to back, which are definitely going to affect her track record. Both these dramas got a recognition because of the fans of the cast but that most certainly doesn’t mean these dramas were successful. Maya also needs to up her game in the emotional scenes because that seems to be the only weak point of her acting.

Saboor Ali

Saboor Ali was part of many dramas this year but none of her performances were up to the mark. Saboor Ali’s biggest flaw is that she tends to overact which makes it look like she is trying too hard. Saboor Ali is a confident actress who should try looking more natural on screen by wearing less make-up and by being more subtle in her performances. Also, she should choose projects which have more room for performance. In Beqasoor and Bhai she was constantly crying, In Teri Chah Mein and Waada she is seen plotting and planning. Saboor Ali’s characters usually lie on the extremes just like her acting skills. She needs to choose better projects, work on her acting skills and wear less make-up.

Sajjal Ali

At such a tender age, Sajjal Ali has garnered a lot of name and fame for herself but sadly, that doesn’t reflect in the choices that she makes when it comes to the dramas. Sajjal Ali is effortless when it comes to acting, but unfortunately, she chooses to get typecast in almost every single drama. There was a time when seeing Sajjal Ali in a promo of a drama sealed the deal that it is going to be a story of a grieving girl as Sajjal stopped experimenting and was offering the same performances to her fans again and again. In the drama Gul e Rana, people expected to see something new from Sajjal but, despite promoting it as a story of a strong girl, Sajjal ended up looking like a bechari who had no way out of her problems. Sajjal Ali has a huge fan following and it definitely calls for experimenting to make her fans happy. Considering how effortless Sajjal is when it comes to acting, she should try her hands on comedy, it will be a refreshing change for the viewers and for herself too.

Sharmeen Kashif

Sharmeen Kashif has just joined the Pakistani drama industry and has bagged quite a few supporting roles in a lot of popular dramas mostly of Hum TV. Since a lot of casting directors seem to be hiring Sharmeen for the portrayal of supporting characters, she most certainly needs to work on her dialogue delivery because it not only seems flat but it also makes her look like she is putting in a lot of effort when it comes to acting. Sharmeen’s acting makes it hard to say that she is a good addition to the drama industry and since she is getting a lot of work, it is highly required for her to up her game in terms of acting.

Ushna Shah

Ushan has been a part of so many projects but as much as her choices have been unimpressive, so has been her acting as well. Ushna Shah really needs to improve on her acting because in every single drama and in every single scene, it looks like Ushna is about to have an asthma attack. Ushna was recently seen in Geo TV’s Thora Sa Aasman and without even looking at the promos and before the introduction of her character, it was evident that she was going to play the role of a home-wrecker. Ushna has been a part of the industry for quite some while now, so if she plans on pursuing her acting career, she should consider taking acting classes for her better future as an actor.

So, here’s the list of all those actors who in our opinion need to up their game, in terms of acting or in terms of drama choices. Please feel free to add more names to the list and share your thoughts about the article.
